We stayed as one group until we put are bag down then we went with Elisabeth. the first animal we look at meerkats, spider monkeys, lions, tigers, Tasmanian devil, kea, kiwi, reptile enclosure, springbok, rhinos, orangutan, gorilla, and then we feed the giraffes overall I advise going again.

P.E update

In P.E we learnt drills warm-ups and how to play bench ball the warm-ups were star jumps, runs, high knees, squats, then we played sneak up on granny for a drill the warm-ups and drill were really easy. because it was a game that required to walk/run at a different velocity for a slight moment. I did enjoy playing bench ball but it got hard when we had played it on a large scale the games we had.

We also did some P.E based math stuff like measuring football fields and how much money it would cost to paint the fields. The maths was a medium bit too easy I learned how to measure on a big scale. My strategies are to work it out in my head and then put it down on the paper and check with my group.

TerraCycle

During the last week, we have been making DLO regarding TerraCycle and recycling.
we are planning to increase awareness through making posters and DLO on the HHS Facebook and Hornby primary and Hornby high.

We are obtaining Pens, mechanical pencils, twink (empty),  gel pens, highlighters, whiteboard markers,   including any other stationery beside pencils, rubbers,

Think Hornby primary and some other schools and preschools will and maybe some big businesses that use a lot of pens

Volleyball

Today in P.E we have been practising about the chosen sport
my sport is Volleyball we had to do our drills/exercises

Exercise 1:

Get a partner and a volleyball. For this exercise, you need to stand across each other and practices hitting the ball we will teach you how to hit the ball. Make sure to aim a little high when you hit so you can practice hitting the ball over the net.

Exercise 2:

Serving - The next exercise we will be teaching you will be how to serve in Volley. For this, you will require a group of two so in pairs. You will try serving over a net. The aim is to have a serve that land in the other person's hands.

I say in this lesson we did ok the reason it's only ok is that nobody was agreeing and everyone was

frustrated
