Camp

What	Who	How	Where	Why
Activity at camp	Room 8	By challenging	M.E.R.C	Helping me in my knowledge

Activities we do at M.E.R.C:

• Archery
• Giant ladder
• Sailing
• Raft building
• Multi sport challenge

This is my second time that I have been at M.E.R.C. And at M.E.R.C I learned to be confident and to take an opportunity and work as a team and to listen carefully to the instructions so that I  could access or achieve  my skills. At camp, I was also learning about survival the great outdoor that makes me exhilarating-making I feel very  happy in these experience - activity.

I wasn't confident because of the fact that the giant ladder was too high. After that, I learned to overcome fear.Giant ladder it's all about to participate to work to work together with my partner to reach the top of the giant ladder, and it's we need to work as communicate.

Archery is also a challenge because we were aiming for the bullseye and the balloon. And we had to wait at the back of the second rope because it's the safety rules of the game and you have to be patience until Rebekah our instructor said to step forward.

In sailing, I learnt how to steer the boat, turn and  handling the sheets. This activity is building up my knowledge gained from the dinghy games, but the most important thing in this activity is teamwork.

Raft building I learned how to build a raft by using ropes, two long kinds of wood and four round cylinders. And in raft building I soon learnt from my mistake  because the raft went float. When I build a raft I always thinking about and plan skills.

Multi sport challenge it's when two groups put together, and vs each others.

The most important thing at camp it’s communicate and teamwork. And at camp I have so much fun.

Trust Challenge

26:06:2015

Room 8 had a class challenge today. The person 2  have to close their eyes and put their right hand on their person 1 shoulder, and their person 1 will tell where to go. The person 2 just only follow the instruction and trust their buddy.

I was closing my eyes and walk with my partner, and we can’t get on the grass because if you taught your buddy to walk on it you will be a big trouble from the teacher, my partner and I reached at the gate without opening my eyes and step on the grass. We waited at the gate for Mrs Dines to come and told us what to do next.

Our teacher was there, and she said that the person 2 come to her and the person 1 have  to wait at the gate, until she finish told the  persons 2 the plan . This time we allowed to go on the grass around the park down the around the bottom court  and then straight inside the  classroom.

When I Stayed Home With The Chicken Pox

I am learning to write a recount to share a personal experience.

When I had to stay home with chicken pox I didn't have fun because I wasn’t allowed to play outside, I didn’t have anyone to play with me and I had to miss school days for a week.

Chicken pox really hurts and it’s itchy and my mum does not allow me to scratch it because I will stay and when my brother and sister came from school they always talk to me about what they did at school.

I didn’t listen to what they say because I’m not confident to talk to them because I feel like going to the hospital and drink some fizzy drinks and I didn’t want to eat because I feel like it needed to be cold, that was all I feel when I got the chicken pox.

That was my first time that all of my family got chicken pox except for my parents but when we were in Samoa I never got sick. I was always strong and never missed my school in Samoa and that all about when I got chicken pox.

And I will never like chicken pox ever in my whole life and I  only like to eat apple when I got chicken pox and chicken pox makes me always keep awake early in the morning and it also makes me feel bad on the day that I got this sick.

    

Changing Relationships By Miriama

 We are learning about relationships,  Today Room 5, has been learning about relationships. I know I can be a good friend by showing and making them happy when they are sad. We write down a list or a sentence to what can make you a good friend, what kind of relationships do we have with other people and what skills do we need for developing and maintaining relationships.
