Holiday's And The Start Of Term 4!

Aloha bloggers, I can't believe that it is already the end of week one! I had an amazing time on my two week holiday. What did you get up to, did you do anything really exciting? I had an amazing time over at Lake Kaniere/The West Coast. I have got two batches over there and the weather was really good other than one day when it rained. I did so many things over there like, swimming, kayaking, adventuring on the islands, went on lots of walks, looked around Hokitika, took my puppy for lots of walks, went down to the lakefront, walked around half of the lake and played lots of board games like monopoly. 

Term 4 week 1! This week has been so busy and full of lots of fun activities including the leaders trip. On monday and Tuesday me and all of the other leaders went on a trip. We did lots of strategizing activities and ones that involve lots of courage and team work. I overall had a great time and it was nice not to be at school for a couple of days. 

Happy Friday bloggers! Here is a photo from the leaders trip!

Sign Language Week!

Kia ora bloggers, did you know that this week is Nz sign language week? Today I have been learning about the history of sign language and how to use sign language. Did you know that kids used to get punished if they spoke sign language, but the def kids used to secretly speak to each other when the teacher wasn't looking. Today I went onto a website called Sign Ninja Game and got to learn lots of sign language. First it teacher you how to sign each thing and them it tested you to see if you remember and if you don't it just takes you back to the learning video and you can try again. Have a go at it, as is so much fun and you have to feed this monster to be able to pass each level and you feed it with the food that you earn, whilst playing the game and doing the activities. After that our teachers wanted us to video ourselves signing our name. Have a look at mine. Have a great week bloggers, don't forget to practise your sign language, it is very important. 

Game On Wednesday!

Hi bloggers, three weeks ago for technology I made a board game out of paper, as our teacher was away. I decided to make it kiwi related as that is where I am from and I think that it is a cool idea to do for a game. I really enjoyed this task and it was actually a lot more fun than I thought. Have you ever created a board game out of paper before? We also made counters and things that a normal board game would have but at this time I did not have them. Have a great week - I am so looking forward to the holidays, are you?
