Simple machines

 Did you know that there are the simple machines that help people build and work more easier. These are three simillar simple machines, The wheel and axels, Pulley's, and Screw. 

Kitchen items

We did an activty about kitchen iteams. 

I found 6 photos of kitchen iteams and labled the engilish words for the kitchen iteams. 

Then I used used the maori dictionary to help with the maori words for the kitchen iteams. 

I enjoyed this activty beacause I learnt lots of maori words for kitchen iteams. 

Balance

We did 5 diffrent activities that envoled balance, For every activity we stood on one leg.

. 

The first activity involed a frizby, for this activty we I standed on one leg facing my partner. This was easy beacause I could use my leg to help me by moving my leg side to side and forward and backwards. 

 The secound activty involed a basketball, this was also easy cause I could use my move around using my leg and that helped me balance . 

The third acttivty involed a netball, this was easy cause I could use my leg that was off the ground to help me balance. 

The fourth acttivty we did was the rugbyball this was easy cause I could controll my balance.  

       

The last activty was hokey this was hard cause I could'nt stop the ball from moving around when I was standing on one leg.

Calendars

 Calendars show us the day, week, or month. 

There are 12 months in the year, they are; Januray, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December. 

Months have 28, 30, or 31 days. 

There are number patterns on a calender by looking for four connecting days for example 20, 60 and 100. 

Knowing before and after number sequence and 7 times tables helps us read a calender. 

Passing

 I learnt how to tell people to pass an object to the left. 

The first thing I did was revising the words that I learnt for the pass few weeks which was tenei, tena, tera. which means next to me, near me, and way over there. 

The last thing I did  learnt how to tell someone to pass an obeject to the left.  Which was hoatu te (obeject) ki te taha maui. 

 This was hard beacause I got mixed up with the Maori words. 

Manners

Manners are about using respectful words when asking for something. Manners are also about using the right actions when speaking to someone or listening to someone. 

Manners can also be used by saying thank you, may I, pardon me, sorry, eye contact and saying the person's name etc. 

The first video shows about how to greet the teachers and other people by using eye contact and addressing them with their name. 

The secound video shows about how to act when someone opens the door for someone else and helping each other out by opening the door. 

The last video shows about how to ask for something,by saying please,may I, and raising your hand.  

Using manners is about having and showing respect and having eye contact while talking to someone and always addressing them with their name.                                               

Problem solving

 In groups we had to solve time problems. 

Then we worked out as a group what the first answer was. 

Next we explained why we got that answer and why we think that answer is right.

Lastly we showed our answers or results to Mr Ogilive and discussed what the right answers were as a class. 

I think that this activity was hard beacause I don't know how to tell analog time. 

Six simple machines

These are the six simple machines that we found around our eniorment the six simple machines are the screw, inclined plane, wedge, wheel and axle, pully, and the lever. 

The lever helps lift heavy objects move from a low level to a high level. 

The inclined plane is used to move objects from a low level to a high level. 

The wedge is used to push things apart. It changes the directions of force to go sideways. 

The wheel and axle is used to move objects around easier.

The pulley is used to move heavy objects from a low level to a high level. 

The screw is used to push objects together. 

Balancing

 We did an activty of balancing in our envorment. We took a range of photos. 

The first photo was showing balancing on a bench with the assisstans of our group. 

The secound photo shows one person balancing on the playground. 

The third photo shows balancing on the playgroud with the assisstans of someone in the group. 

The fourth photo shows one person balancing on two or more people. 

The fifth photo shows one person balancing with the assisstans of other people, but trying to not have too contact with the ground or with the people in the group. 

This was an hard activity because some were too weak to help there group out. 

Prepositions

 I learnt about prepoitions. 

The prepoitions that I used for by me was tenei.

 The secound prepoition I used for there was tena. 

The last prepoition I used for way over there was tera. 

These prepoitions can help me beacause they are an easier way of saying way over there, by me, and there.

Simple Machines

 Simple machines are used to move heavy objects, carry objects, and attach objects together. 

There are six simple machines;

One of the simple machines is a wheel and axle is used to move objects around easier it redues the amount of force needed to push by making something roll. 

Another simple machine is a pulley, a pulley is used to move heavy objects from a low level to a high level it reduces the amount of force needed to lift heavy obejects by sharing and dividing the force out. 

The third simple machine is a wedge the wedge is used to push things apart. It changes the directions of the force to go sideways. 

The fourth simple machine is a screw a screw is used to attach objects to other objects. This machine works by making objects twist around the machine. 

The fifth simple machine is the lever the lever is used to lift heavy obejects it changes the imput force by using a pivot and a bar. This machine can also be used to mesure forces like  weight.

The last simple machine is aattach inclined plane the inclined plane is used to move objects from a low level to a high level more easily. 

These are all still used today to move objects.

Maori

I learnt how to ask questions in maori that can help me in class. 

The first question that I learnt was Kua marama which means (Do you understand)

The secound question I learnt was Kua mutu which means ( I'm finished )

Then we moved on to asking other questions like whats your name and whats his or hers  name. 

These questions were hard to remember so I need to pratice those questions so I remember them and ask someone these questions.
