GROWTH MINDED

I found a different way to do my cross country reflection.

Why do we need our toes?

Why do we need our toes?

Your toes will provide balance for you, and they are usually touching the ground 75% of the time. Your big toe is the most important toe of all your toes because it can bear almost twice the weight of all the other toes combined!! The pinky toe is the least useful though, as it is the smallest, it can carry the least weight, and it bears most impact on maintaining balance. If a person were to lose their pinky toe, it would make hardly any difference.

Weekly Reflection

MY WEEK

my favourite game

My favorite game is home sheep home. In this game, there are three sheep. In order from biggest to smallest, they are Shirley, Shaun, and Timmy. Home sheep home is basically a quest to get them home. The three skills you might learn from this are hand-eye coordination for when you need to press the right buttons, the timing for when the sheep need to get past something that moves, and where to find the hidden underpants. (in the game) I rate this game five stars.

flip and flop

FLIP

My flip for this week was that I got all of my work done!!! My IE is doing awesome, and I only need to do the creation. I am going to make boomerang bags, as my IE is on pollution.



FLOP

My flop was that unfortunately, I did not get to finish the computer case I made in sewing tech. I only need to put the extra protective layer inside and sew the top and edges.

Cherub the recruit

The students at Ngatea primary school had a very exciting day on Monday the 23rd of July. The students in the Marama team had recruit training, in the celebration of 'Cherub: The recruit', as seen above. 

There was an obstacle course where the students had to do star jumps, jump hurdles, crawl under tarpaulins, shoot a nerf gun at a target, run zig zags between cones, and throw tennis balls into buckets. A practical one, where they had to remember what was on the tray, and balance on a rope. There was also a drama one, where they had to do a small skit.

    

My Favourite place

My favourite place is at the back of my grandma's house because you can see the farm and the house from there. It is also a great place to hide when me and my cousins play hide and seek. The place is also quite nice when there is water in the stream, and the flowers are in bloom.

Meet SoFi The Robotic Fish "Spy"

With climate change and fishermen creating havoc on our oceans, it is becoming increasingly important for researchers to closely monitor our marine life. However, observing sea creatures up close is almost impossible since human presence scares the animals. Now, thanks to The Soft Robotic Fish, aka SoFi, researchers may not only be able to keep a close eye on the amazing creatures, but also uncover undersea secrets that have been escaping us for centuries.

Plastic bag free Ngatea

This is a    boomerang bag.
A group of local people in Ngatea have started to sew them. My mum has also volunteered to help, and everyone in my scout group has made a bag out of an old T-shirt. Ngatea Is now on a mission to be completely plastic bad free! I think that this is a wonderful idea, and I hope that everyone else does too!

Places I want to go

The first place that I want to go is Paris. I really want to go there because I would really love to see the Eiffel Tower. I also really like the French language. I would really like to try a little bit of French food, because I think I will like it.

The second place I would like to go is the great wall of China. I would also like to walk it, but I am not really sure how I would walk it, as I am not really sure how long it would take.
