Kayaking in the school pool

Kayaking Fun

Buddy Assessment (Buddy: Jared)

Paddle Hold (right angles, right way, consistency)

I think I had good consistency with my paddle holding because I have done it before with my dad. Jared (my assessor) gave me a double tick for my balance since in Jareds words “Ben had all his angels right”

Overall Safety

My personal opinion I would be a double tick for being safe. To be safe, you have to have great strength to hold the paddle and have great balance. Jared thinks I should get a double tick on that one

Speed

My Speed was definitely fast since I won the race. Elijah was pushing me so hard making me wanna push harder to win. I did win. Jareds words again are, “Tremendous speed I think Ben deserves a double tick” Well there you go I am doing really good so far.

Enjoyment

I am happy as ever I definitely got a double tick for this and so does Jared I think.

Reflection

Something I enjoyed learning was the water safety

Something I found challenging was keeping in front of Elijah

My favourite thing about kayaking in the pool was playing around on the water!

I can taste fresh air lurking

5 Senses writing

I can taste the fresh air lurking. I can hear birds chirping to their families. I can see horses with their silky brown furry mains. I can touch the electric fence  and get a shock. I can smell Horse poo whiffling through the air. Blue sky overgrown tree top canopies  over a house across from school Te Mata the sleeping giant laying there dead. I hear a plane swooping over my head. Smokey grey sky not rain clouds, something you don't see everyday. I can feel the sun beating down on my neck making me get burnt. I see nature roaming the earth. The horse is running up and  down like a lunatic getting chased with a hammer. I can see cliffs off the side of Te Mata peak.

I see and feel Pollen in the air. I see cars driving on Howard street, Spider webs spun on the long wet brown grass. Silence around the environment.

Autumn leaves falling to the ground.

My Waka art

He Waka Eke Noa

Pride Tellagami

This is my Tellagammie. This is an app where you can create avartar and add a back ground. I found this app awesome and it has great graphics.

What is the difference between area and perimeter?

This is the perimetreter. The difference between perimeter and area is perimeter is the outside of the shape or building or anything really, even a farm paddock has a perimeter and area  

 This shape has an area of 25 metres squared. We used the site Maths dictonary for kids

 This part is showing you all the angles of perimeter so you can figure out the angles using a protractor

 This is another part showing the perimeter what do you think the anwers are? Add them in your comment.

To worrk out area you do lenth X width for an example 3 lengh and 5 width.
