Formal dance #9

In formal dance we have been learning 5 dances including the salsa, the waltz, the line dance, the rock and roll reel and the jitterbug. These dances are really fun but my favorite dance is the jitterbug because you get to make up your own dance with 5-7 dance moves. We normally do formal dance everyday but sometimes the day gets to busy, I'm very excited for the actual formal last year it was really fun.

Chorus box #8

Chorus and the Oaklands school student leaders have teamed up to paint one of Chorus' boxes. first we had to design what was going on the box then we had to get that design checked by Chorus to ask if we could start painting, they then replied yes. A laddie from the ccc then came with paints and brushes so we could start the painting. The first group went down to the box, they had to scrub and then put the white base coat on. the next group went down a couple days later and put the second white base coat on, then the third group went down and started the coloring/drawing. soon we will be done and it will look very pretty.

Run, jump, throw #7

Last week Leeana and I spoke and helped out the junior run, jump, throw. This task included saying the opening speech, making the sprint track, playing music, ringing the bell and calling the names of the sprint finalist (the names were hard to pronounce). my favorite part of run, jump, throw was helping out the junior side of the school they are fun to teach.
The care value that I showed was community by helping out the school community.
The leadership trait that I showed was active thinking by actively thinking about what I had to do

Wellington trip #6

A couple weeks ago I went to wellington with all the year 8's. At take off I enjoyed watching my city turn small but I did NOT enjoy walking. I showed leadership by using my leadership traits on the plane and around the city. I showed all my care values in wellington. What I enjoyed the most was hanging out with my friends and making lots of memories.

Leadership technology #5

On Thursday we went to technology, at technology I'm doing science. In science we were doing robotics. Robotics is not fun, very boring. The bus rides to Lincoln are very fun I sit next to lots of my friends on the bus. 
The CARE values I showed were respect because I respected the bus driver by talking quietly.
The leadership quality I showed was active thinking because I was actively thinking about what I was doing at tech.  

Home learning challenges #5

E9.  Research an important person or event in NZ’s history. Present your findings.

Richie McCaw has lead his team to victory three times and been motivational, resilient and a true leader to his whole team. Richie McCaw was captain for the Crusaders and for the All Black , He leed the All Blacks 3 times when winning the Rugby World Cup and holding the trophy above his head. Richie McCaw reminded the world of his brilliance as a leader when he lifted the Webb Ellis Cup in 2011, 2015 and 1987, battling through a troubling foot injury to claim rugby’s greatest prize.The all blacks have won three times, 2nd place once, 3rd place twice and 4th place once with Riche and players that have retired. Not only has Richie McCaw had a lot of victories, he never gave up on his teams.

Richie has never givin up he has kept on trying and never letting his team down while playing a game for the All Blacks or the Crusaders.Treatment for Richie injury meant he missed the early stages of Investec Super Rugby in 2012. Richie quickly made his presence felt when he rejoined his Crusaders teammates, again he lead the way with both his work-rate and skill with ball in hand. Richie McCaw lined up for the 550 km event as an official member of the Cure Kids team and supported the charity. Richie McCaw is a fantastic example of a great male leader that shows all the leadership qualities.

Excellence key leadership role #5

On Tuesday the student leaders had a meeting with Mr Ladbrook.
We firstly talked about the chorus box we are doing.
Then he said that he had sent an email to our parent's to see if they could supervise us while we are painting it. 
After that he said to think about what part of the box do we want to paint.
Then Mr Ladbrook asked us if we have or are close to getting our excellence badge and most of the student leaders hadn't.

I showed repect by listening to Mr Ladbrook when he was speaking.

I was also being trustworthy by showing up to the meeting on time.

Excellence technology post #4

On Thursday the year 7/8's had technology we traveled on two buses to get to Lincoln primary school which takes about 10-15 minutes to get there.
When we got there we walked to our classes and in my case it was to design and textiles.
The first thing we did was watch a video on how we can make sand out of beer bottles and how we are losing lots of sand.
Next we got three planning sheets the first one we had was about what things we wanted to make.
The second sheet was about three options on what we could do.
Finally we did the last one and that was about our final design we are going to do.

I showed community by putting my rubbish in the bin a morning tea instead of littering because it wasn't my school.

I was also being trustworthy by doing what I was meant to at the right time.

Operations using fractions, percentages, decimals and integers.

In Maths we have been learning to: Understand operations using fractions, percentages, decimals and integers.


Here is some evidence of my learning.


Include screenshots for all 6 IXL activities that you have completed.
Percentage problems total unknown - link you activity.
Standard place value, reversing and compensating with decimals - link your activity.

Extended Abstract assessment task - Link your Lazer Blazer task here. Include links to the answer sheet and the activity sheet.


Something that challenged me during this unit of learning was the lazer blazer task because there were lots of hard Q's in the work sheet

My next step is to continue to apply these strategies to real life/ problem solving situations.

Key leadership role #4

Today the leaders had a meeting in our classroom through morning tea, this is the first time we have ever had a meeting through morning tea because we usually have them just throughout the eating time. We mainly talked about the trip we are going on to do the mural and I cant wait it sounds like so much fun! I showed respect by listening and sitting quietly. I showed leadership by not worrying about having to do the meeting through lunch. I was a role model by giving ideas what we could do for the mural.

WALT: Write an effective argument for our chosen political party.

Is National the best Party to vote for? Personally, I believe that Green’s is the best party to vote for.
The three policies that I like are, guarantee children the right to be educated at their local school, extend free doctor visits to people under the age of 18 furthermore increase health funding.
The first policy I will explain is Guarantee children the right to be educated at their local school.

My first policy that I like is, guarantee children the right to be educated at their local school.
The Green Party believes that every child has a right to be fully included and thrive in the education system. But the education act does not give all children the right to attend their local school.
I believe that students should be guaranteed to get an education close to home.
Children with friends that live close to their home leads to children having more friends so they get out more.
Children get exercise when/if they walk to school because it is close to their homes and removes children obesity. I’m concerned that New Zealand is one of many countries with a problem with children obesity.
Children should be able to have eduction close to their home and also be able to go to a doctor for free.

My second policy that I like is, extend free doctor visits to people under the age of 18
The Green Party believes that early intervention and preventative care are the most cost effective approaches to improving health. But the National Government has cut funding for these services.
I believe these free visits should be for everyone under the age of 18, this should improve health outcomes for young people.
Less children will be dying of disease because people with low income can take their children to the doctor without taking money for food away from their family.
Children from 0-18 shouldn't have to pay for doctor's appointments and to make that possible increase the amount of money they give to these facilities.

My last policy that I like is, increase health funding
The Green Party believes that healthcare should be delivered by a well-funded public health system. Funding needs to keep up with growing needs but the government has underfunded the health system. As a result, too many people are missing out on crucial health care and healthcare is becoming a luxury.
If they increase the funding amount more cures will be found and scientist will be able to keep people in this world for longer.
I believe that if there are more immigrants and people coming to New Zealand there needs to be a better health system.
I’m know going to talk about a poor policy from the Labour party.

Labour wants to Abolish National Standards. I believe that this policy is outrageous.
Students can check their national standards so they know what to work towards.
Teachers use it as a tool in the learning area.
The national standards are a great way to measure a school/students success. In contrast greens does not want to get rid of national standards as it is a great aspect in the learning area.
This is the one reason you shouldn't vote for the Labour party and that you should vote for the Green party.

So there, clearly I have explain why Green’s is the best party.
Green’s policies are the strongest in education.
As shown above the three points are, Guarantee children the right to be educated at their local school, extend free doctor visits to people under the age of 18 and increase health funding.
Should you really vote for someone/a party that doesn’t support your needs? Vote for Green’s.

My next steps are:
I need to have more motive language.

Here is a link to our online modelling book

We have been evaluating texts against the following four criteria:

  • Readability
  • Accuracy
  • Relevance
  • Status

These documents show evidence of my learning during this unit:

Excellence key leadership role #3

Today we had a meeting with all the student leaders, we talked about our leadership blog posts.
In my leadership role I want to plan 1 event in the year and try and not get fired.
A good thing to remember for me is to do all my blog post and keep up to date.
The care value I showed was community because I showed up to the meeting.
The leadership value I showed was active thinking because I have done all the blog post I need to do.

Home learning challenge #3

C3. Teach a family member how to use an ICT tool that they are unfamiliar with (like the Flip, Google docs or a specific App)

T2 art study

Excellence blog post #3

On Wednesday we had a student council and we talked about fundraisers, what we are going to do and who the money will go toward. In term 3 we will be doing a ice cream day, me and the rest of the year 7/8 student council members are going to organise/plan where the ice cream is coming from and how much money it is going to cost.
The care value I showed was active thinking because the year 7/8's lead half of the meeting when Mrs Trotter was not there.
The leadership trait I showed was all of them because we took the lead we they were in need.

I can apply the strategy to problem solving questions involving circles

 I can apply the strategy to problem solving questions involving circles
The 400 metre track.
Take the two semicircles ends and find the radius, that is 36.5 then double that to make 73, then times that by pi which is 229.34 metres then you divide it by 2 which is 114.67 and that's what the ends are. For the sides you minus 400 with 229.34 which equals 170.66, half 170.66 which equals 85.33 that is the lengths of the sides.

  1. 85.33m, 85.33m, 114.67 and 114.67

Current Events Term 2, 2017


WALT: I can successfully research a current event.
Here is a link to our online modelling book for this unit of learning.

The National Standard that I have been aiming for during this unit of learning is:

  • Year 9/10: I can read in different ways to find and/or understand information that that is not immediately easy to access or is not organised in familiar ways.

Each week we have read a short text about a current event/ topic. We then formed questions based on what we had read.  After this we researched the answers to our questions and finally we gave our opinions on what we had found out.

Here is some evidence of my learning.



My Next Step is to continue to  apply the reading and  research skills that I have learned in a variety of other areas.

Term 2 Novel Study

This term I have been reading and studying the novel abandon ship

I found this novel interesting  because I think true story's made into books is really interesting

During the novel I had to complete a thinking map which shows that I can classify how the author has shown the theme of the book.

National Standard this covers

  • Year 9/10 Standard
    • I can locate, evaluate, analyse and summarise information and ideas within texts and across a range of texts.
    • I have a large vocabulary that is connected to my own knowledge about the world and includes: - academic e.g observe vs watch - subject-specific (specific words about a subject (e.g feline) - technical terms (specialised vocabulary of a particular field.)

Overall I would give this novel a rating of  8/10 and I would recommend it to others to read because it is New Zealand history that is actually good

Three things that I have learned about writing a Curriculum Vitae are:

That it is very important to have correct spelling, punctuation and grammar.

That it is an easy writing style to write.

What the skills are to obtain a job.

Here is a link to my Skills based Curriculum Vitae.

Home Learning Challenge #1

A6. Research a range of options for High School. Visit at least three different open nights.


  • Christchurch girls high school
  • Riccarton high school
  • Hillmorton high school
I can apply to receive a sport scholarship to get in to these schools.

At Hillmorton there was lots an lots of food same with Christchurch girls. The Riccarton open night was boring but the tour we went on was fun. 

WALT: Reason with linear proportions I have been learning 3 WALTS

1.National Standard 1: Combine simple proportions to work out what parts the whole is made up in a unit of 10 like 3 yellow with 7 blue, 5 yellow with 5 blue, 4 yellow with 6 blue. Say what the fraction and percentage of each stack is for yellow and blue.
2.National Standard 2: - Combine proportions to work out what parts the whole is made up of using non-multiple of 10 like 8 yellow:5 blue:4 white with 11 yellow:11 blue:11 white (19:16:15 and 38%:32%:30%)
3. National Standard 3: - Order fractions with unlike denominators by finding a common denominator

Term 1 Novel Study

Term 1 Novel Study

This term I have been reading and studying the novel See you Simon by David hill

I found this novel OK because it is very boring in some parts and really interesting in other parts, if someone asked me for a book recommendation I would not recommend See You Simon.

During the novel I had to complete two major assessment tasks. The first is an Explain Map which shows the consequences of a major event in the book. The second was a Describe++ Map (Inference map) which shows I how I have connected prior knowledge and other experiences to what I have been reading to make an inference.
Link to Explain Map
Link to Inference Map

National Standard this covers

Year 9/10 Standard
I can monitor my understanding as it develops during my reading, and adjust my strategies to address any comprehension problems Eg: If I don’t understand a passage I have read I can re-read it, read-on, use pictures or diagrams, or explore the meaning of some of the vocabulary.
I can use strategies to analyse ideas and information and to reflect critically on the meaning I am gaining from my reading. (Eg: I can think about the meaning of the information and ideas and how this fits with what I think)

Key leadership role #4

This week we as leaders did nothing much apart from some public speaking and Leeana and I got an award for helping/organising the kauri Run Bike Run/Duathlon we had one meeting but all we talked about was what was hard in our leadership role and what was easy.

The Care value I showed was Excellence because I stood on the stage proudly.

Technology blog post #4

At technology on Thursday they had printed my project and it looked so good, I even found out that it holds water. The teacher and I discovered that it would look even better if we hot glued some felt on the inside and on the lid. then at 10:00 Leeana and I went to mandarin and learnt some new words like Tang which means candy. 

The Care value I showed was active thinking because I helped contribute to an idea to hot glue some felt on the inside.

Key leadership role #3

Run Bike Run

Last week Leeana and I ran the Run Bike Run. We had to get down to Westlake park at 7:45 am, that was really early start for me.
Mr Forman and Mr Hillary were already down there so we started to set up then we went back to school to do the roll. Mr Forman, Leeana and I then drove down to get there before anyone else and fix cone's that have been knocked over. Everyone completes there race including me and they all go back to school and Leeana and I stay behind and pack up.

Overall Run Bike Run was really fun. I came 5th in my race and made it to Ruapuna raceway to compete in the bigger Run Bike Run.

The Care value I showed was community because Leeana and I woke very early to create a run bike run for the school community  

Games with minimal or no equipment

In PE we have been participating in a variety of games that require little or no equipment.
Below is the Matrix which shows our progression in this unit of learning.


Screen Shot 2017-03-12 at 12.32.06 PM.png


The table below shows my understanding of games with minimal or no equipment.



Examples of Games that need minimal or no equipment.
What equipment would we usually need to play these games.  
Why do we play games with minimal or no equipment?
invisible touch
tag games
hunger games
pirate ship
bibs
cones
balls
bats
Because If you are at a sporting event and need to get a game going and have minimal or no equipment you cloud play these games and easy to setup.


My Strengths.  
Some things that I have done well during this unit of learning are contributing to the discussion because everyone needed to add ideas to make the game better


My Next Steps.

Some things I could improve on when playing games with minimal or no equipment are is having no equipment instead of minimal Because that's the point in this unit to come up with games with no equipment.

Leadership article writing

In writing I have been learning to use a wide range of punctuation appropriately and with increasing accuracy like . , ! ? “”
- colon :
- semi-colon ;
- hyphen -
- parentheses ( )
- brackets [ ]
- ellipses ...


I have been especially focusing on using parentheses and semi-colon. I have highlighted these in green where I have used them as well as other punctuation that I changed because it was used incorrectly. Here is a piece of my writing that shows this.

An active thinker leader is able to problem solve and think creatively. Bill gates is a great example of an active thinker, he came up with many great ideas (microsoft windows) and showed active thinking throughout the process. This trait is important to my role because sometimes as a sports co-ordinator you need to think about different strategies. I will demonstrate this trait in my role by working together with Mr Forman and Mr Hillary to create strategies to create sporting events and making them easier to plan.

How to become a Chef



Chef, this is a perfect career for me. Normal Chefs have a number of roles in their daily job including: preparing food, keeping work areas tidy and washing dishes after. The pay of a normal Chef gets around $16 - $25 an hour but a professional Chef gets around $22 - $49 an hour. The chances of me getting this job are high so I need to work towards my goal to achieve and follow the steps below.


There are a range of personal requirements that are needed to become a Chef. I need to be able to follow instructions so I can follow how the head Chef runs the place and how he wants the food cooked. I also have to be able to work under pressure when the kitchen is busy and orders come in fast. There is one more trait I need to have and that's to be reliable, reliable to my boss and my fellow chefs, so they can trust me and able to be relied on. These requirements will help me achieve this position but I also need some useful experiences.


To become a chef i will need to have a lot of useful experiences. One useful experience is to have any work preparing food, this is important because I actually need to know how to prepare to get better opportunities. Catering is a useful experience because you can get higher up, if you know how to do a lot of these things. Working in a kitchen before I go into my career is a very useful skill. Useful experiences can really help me to become a Chef. The last part needed are the entry requirements.


There are three entry requirements to become a Chef. two-three year on the job apprenticeship, including study towards a national certificate in hospitality - cookery level 4. One year full time national certificate in hospitality, basic cookery level 3. I also need one year, full time national certificate in hospitality level 4. It will be good for me if I can get all these certificate so I am able to get a better career.


Overall, there are many personal requirements needed to become a Chef eg: to be able to follow instructions. There are also many useful experiences that I could have to help achieve my goal of becoming a Chef. The entry requirements are many and varied. Finally, I believe that this career is achievable through hard work.


That was my research of how to become a Chef

  • Divisibility rules up to 10.
  • Simple powers to 10.
  • Square roots of perfect squares.
  • Common factors of numbers to 100, including highest common factor.
  • Least common multiples of numbers to 100.

My next learning step in Maths is recall communally used fraction, decimal and percentages conversions.
