Fun PE Drills.

In Te Ngahere we have been learning a game called ki o’ rhi. My teacher whaea Shanna takes half of the class out for a game then she takes the other half out the next day. How you play ki o’rhi is simple first you get in a team. Then one person in your team goes and stands by a cone as the ripper. Then one of your teammates would be on the other side of the person who rips. Also there is someone who is on the opposite side of the ripper with the rest of the team.

After that we started to play. The person who was with the team had to throw the ball to the guy at the end then he or she would catch it and throw it back. Then you would try and step the ripper and get a try. What was hard for me was to catch the ball because it was slippery.

Have you played ki o rahi before?

Tips About The Wonder Project.

 Tips About The Wonder Project.

Last week Te Ngahere had two rocket engineers come in and tell us about this thing called the Wonder Project. The wonder project is learning about rockets going into the sky. The two guys names were Troy and Gustavo they have been teaching us about thrust, thrust is when something pushes the rocket into the air. They also told us about weight and drag. Weight and drag is important ,to be able to launch the rocket. If there was no weight and drag the rocket would not land properly weight and drag makes it land head first. Without it the bottle would start flipping and land however it wants.

What was  hard for me was to glue on the wings because they would always fall of.

Have you done something similar?

Mind Blowing Dodgeball

 Mind Blowing Dodgeball

In Te Ngahere we have been doing PE with my teacher. Yesterday half of the class played and the other half stayed in and did work. Then we would switch over we only had three matches , the two of the games we played I got out at the start and on the third game I lasted a while. We would line up behind the basketball hoop and she would count down from three then we would run and pick up the dodgeballs and shoot at the other team. If you catch the ball the person that threw the dodgeball they get out. Also if the ball bounces once and it hits the person there out if it bounces twice and it hits the player it doesn't count. I like dodgeball because it is a fantastic game and good exercise.

I hope you enjoyed my blog post thank you for reading it.

In Te Ngahere we have been doing movie making.

My group  and I are doing a movie called the Assassin.

In my group there is Thea, Archie, Ondreous, Pharrell and

Tiana. I play the king assassin in my film, the movie type is 

action movie. Thea brought some props for us to use, I got a

spear, Ondreous got a sword, Pharrell got a bow and arrow

We need arrows for Pharrell but I can't wait until our

Cross Country Fitness

 Cross Country Fitness

This term we are doing fitness to get ready for cross country.   

Our exercises are running around the field for 15 minutes and running from the other goal post to another. Sometimes we put marker dots on our hand  for how many laps we did.

One time I did 12 laps running around the field and another time I did 9 laps. This time I did 5 laps because my teacher said we could walk. I hate and I like cross country because it is good for you but it is really tiring.  Have you been practicing for cross country?
