Te Reo Maori song

Hello people,

What advice does the singer/artist/band/musician get from their te reo Māori composer/mentor?

They want to be able to make a song in their language but want to get it right and not be ashamed.

What new meaning/s do the lyrics gain from being in te reo? Why is this? 

Being able to put your language out there for people to hear

What did you learn about the importance of reo Māori (language) to Māori culture and identity? 

That some people want to be able to produce a song in it but can't because they're afraid of being judged.

Why is it important to have well known / popular New Zealand songs on the radio in te reo Māori?

So that some people might not understand it but they also need to know it there.

The cay

Hello people,

In class we are reading the cay and now answering the questions that have been put on the bored to chapter 12-13.

The amount of time they spent of the cay is 2 months.

When timothy got sick phillip put a wet cloths on the forehead of timothy to keep him cold.

The reason phillip want to climb the coconut tree is he wants to make timothy proud and not disappointed.

When timothy is gone he want philip to be able to have skill to live while still being blind.

I think the reason he asked are you still black is because he hasn't seen him in such a long time.

Volleyball

Hello people,

In class we are refelting about how are journey has been and how we did. If we got better and what we got better at.

My skills before I stared were trash but now I have a better understanding of how to do some stuff and how to do it the right way instead of getting it all mucked up. My skills now are not a lot better because I sat down most of the time but I got better at setting and serving I can get the ball over the net with my serve now. The skills I can now use in the game out being able to serve the ball and get it in a straight line most the time.

I think the most hardest thing in the game is getting the foot work right and the timing of the ball and going at the right time block/spike. The thing I most like about volleyball is being able to get the ball back up or serving are my favorite. If I did PE next year I would want to prefect the things I know so they are even better.

Calypso

 Hello people,

Calypso is known as having calm voice or song, It is also a style of afro-caribbean music. The sound it like a sweet but nice ding in the ear.

While listening to the song I can imagine being at a small dance or small gathering, Sound like it is for a nice slow dance or it being a nice quiet background noise for when your cleaning or sleeping. Being able to sink into the song. It also sound like someone could make words for the song and also be a nice calming song still.

Song

Pontoon

Hello people,

we are learning about pontoon brides how they are built,how are they reusable,why were these bridges created.

Why the bridges are built is because they can be put up so fast and easy to get across a river in quicktime. they lay boats out then put planks after tie them together so it is safe and then it is ready to go.the bridges were created to get across a river fast and safe. these can be taken down then put up somewhere else.

Pita-pocket

Hello people,

In home economics we made pita-pockets in them there was lettuce,ham/chicken,BBQ sauce.They were nice to eat but they were a little bit to dry. The team worked really good everyone was working nice and after we got the jobs done.

All we really had to do was cut a slit in the pita then put our ingredients.

Schooner

Hello people,

in class we are thinking about what it would be like on the schooner what you can feel,touch,see or what it looks like the boat and what might be coming up ahead.

I think being on the side you would see the crashing waves or feel the boat rock up and down. Might be able to taste the salt air. Hear the birds and the crash of waves hitting the front of the boat. looking at the long narrow boat with four sails with not to big of sides but slick through the water. Nice brown colour to it and white tops on each side or might be bright red. you might be able to see upon the front a land or miles of water. And that what I think it might be like on a schooner

7.   water

Steps:

1. Need a group 
2. Get test tube and test tube rack
3.  You need to get banana,bread,cardboard,Styrofoam.
4.   
5.   
6.  

Findings:

TODAY	Colour	Change	Observations
Banana	yellowy and little brown		slimy
Paper	brown		flat
Styrophone cup	white		normal
Bread	breed colour		bumpy

• 
  

5 weeks	Colour	Change	Observations
Banana	green	moldy	the mold look kind of fluffy
Paper	brown	nothing	the paper has started to change colour at the bottom

ACIDIFICATION

DEFINITION:

What is happening to the oceans?

they are rising.

What does this do to shellfish?

they are it able to form

HOW DOES CLIMATE CHANGE CONTRIBUTE TO THE ACIDIFICATION OF OUR OCEANS?

2 Images;

What are trees used for?

fire wood/making things cooking things

HOW DOES DEFORESTATION AFFECT THE CLIMATE?

2 Images;

ICE CAP MELT

DEFINITION:

If all the ice melted what would happen?

the animals that live there will not have any land to stand on and then the killer wales will eat them and the there will be no more of that kind of animal

HOW DOES ICE CAP MELT AFFECT CLIMATE CHANGE?

2 Images;

WATER VAPOUR

DEFINITION:this if it is on the water in the ocen  then the fish and animals water will start to get hot  and then they will start to die off one by one

HOW DOES  WATER VAPOUR AND EVAPORATION CONTRIBUTE TO CLIMATE CHANGE?

2. Equipment tray: equipment list and details.

• Test tube - This is used  for experiments using liquids.They have a bung that can be placed in the top. Test tubes sit in a test tube rack.
• Conical Flask - This is used for experiments with liquid up to 150 ml. The flask has a rubber bung for the top and the glass is heat proof.
• Glass Stirring rod - This is a 20cm glass rod used to stir and mix any liquids together.
• Test tube tongs - These are used to hold a hot test tube after an experiment.
• Spatula - This is for holding very small amounts of chemical powders.
• Funnel - used to channel liquids into a smaller container.
• Measuring Cylinder - This is used to measure liquids for experiments. The liquids will be poured into a beaker or test tube once measured out.
