My Year Of Being A Year 7

My Year Of Being A Year 7

This year is a fun year because when I am a year 7 means I can be friends with new people who are year 8’s. In team 5 it is way different from the other classes I have been in.

Firstly what is different from the other classes is that when go to Tamaki College for Tech in tech there about 4 groups which are called: Hard Materials, Carving, Graphics, and Cooking. This term I am in graphics, in graphics we draw, make 3-D object. We do everything that include shapes and colours.

Secondly It is different because every Friday after lunch we have a game of sports we compete with other classes in Team 5 for the past few weeks I have played only Tag and Cricket we play these sports because we have to show teamwork and leadership and to be a role model to the younger kids.

Lastly another reason is we have to be at school at 8:30am and have to be at the streets we have an assembly. While the other kids are outside playing we are inside the streets having our own assembly. In the assembly we talk about what we will be doing today and some notes to remember, while we are in classes one of the notes we always use is be flexible which means to be normal and to respect everyone in your class.

One of my goals in team 5 will have to be getting better grades than last year and to be a great role model to the little kids.

Explanation Writing - What Makes A Good Friend

Explanation Writing

In this explanation writing I am writing about what makes a good friend. A good friend is trustworthy, Loyal, and caring.

Trustworthy Friends.

Trustworthy friends are people who are can trust each other and be worthy. How do you know when you want to trust your friend? If you have a friend you have to trust them because she/he have to know you like them as friend.

Loyal Friends.

Loyal friends is someone who supports you in everything. For Example: If you fall down when you are playing a game and they are on the side line they will just cheer you on.  

Caring Friends.

Caring friends is someone who cares about you. For Example: If someone hurt your feeling they will try to cheer you up but doing a funny face or dancing weirdly. Also if you hurt your self your friend will take you to the nurse’s office/sickbay.

Friends are a really good thing to have in your life because you can talk to them about anything.

On Our Way To Poly Fest

On Our Way To Poly Fest

Have you ever been to Poly fest before? Well Team 5 went on a long trip to Poly Fest.

Our trip yesterday was for our education and people who are shy about there culture get an opportunity to make them feel confident. Also we when there to know more about their cultures and to understand more. Poly Fest is a good festival to go to because you get to learn about cultures you didn’t know about also you get free stuff and some of the stalls you win stuff.

When we got out of the bus there were other schools lining up it was so crowded I couldn’t go through any one then when we finally made it past the long line we went to sit down and we sang some songs. After that long wait we went to some stalls the first one my group went to was the digital poi. We had to go in groups of five in the digital poi. A digital poi is something that is a poi and it lights up and it is really cool. Team 5 got free bags, glasses, fans and a poster from the ASB truck which made us feel amazing.

I think it is important for students who participate because they need to learn what their cultures is about and what is means they also have to be confident about their culture. What i think is amazing about students performing in the polyfest is they get perform and show people this is what their culture is and this is how it works. They also get to show off their dance skills.

I have explained about what is important for student who participated in the polyfest. Also I explained what is fun about polyfest. If I had a chance to go there I would definitely go there with my family.

Te Taiao o Tamaki

Te Taiao o Tamaki

Te Taiao o Tamaki means The environment of Tamaki.  What I have done to help the environment was: I was helping the year 2 & 3 kids pick up rubbish. How can you help to keep your environment clean is?  You could pick up the rubbish,or you could tell people to stop throwing the rubbish on the floor. Why is it so important to keep the environment clean? You have to keep it clean because there is animals around and if you throw rubbish in the sea like plastic the fish in the sea might think it is some kind of food so when the fish eat the plastic they could die and then when you go fishing you might not even catch any fish.
