Red

  Red By Mac
Red is the colour of a freshly shot deer with blood oozing out.


Red is the colour of fire burning ferociously.


Red is the colour of red wine spilt.
Red is the first colour of the rainbow             


Red is the colour of one million degrees hot lava.


Red is the colour of the gloomiest bright ruby.
Red is the colour of a pink love heart.               
Red is the colour of red snapper.                   


Red is the colour of angry as the alarm clock beeps.




        

bike reflection

                                           Bike reflection !!!!!



On three Wednesdays last week we had some special people came and taught us some skills and teach us how to ride on the road safely. Now i am going to tell you how to ride on the road safely. now i am going to tell you what happened. stater
Paragraph 1
I was feeling excited because I was looking forward to learning about being safer on the road. The road safety teaching went over 3 Wednesdays and it was a good way to learn how to ride on a bike safely.  I haven't really done much riding on roads so it was a new experience for me.
paragraph 2
On the first Wednesday the people introduced themselves. We did a bike check A for air B for brakes C for chain and we had a helmet check. They taught us how to play the box game, at first when there were lots of people in the box it was tricky but when people got out it was easy.  On the second Wednesday we were taught how to use brakes properly and other skills, like how to ride your bike super slowly.  On the third Wednesday it was all about brakes so people would ride not too fast but not too slow in a straight line into a box as big as your bike and then you would stop in the box and see how long you could stay on your bike without putting your foot down.
paragraph 3
I think this a really good way to learn how to ride safely. I think this would be a good thing to do at other schools because I learnt lots and I think other kids would learn a lot too.  It makes me feel more confident to ride on the road.

Term 1 Inquiry

For our term one inquiry, Mr Matthews taught us a number of different soccer skills games. We then got into teams and chose one that we wanted to innovate to improve it. After we recorded our new rules we got to teach the rest of the class our new game. It was great fun!

Raglan

  
Tawa Team had a wonderful day trip to Raglan beach. Mac and his group completed the beach relay and had a lot of fun. He used the key competency of Participating and Contributing by accepting responsibility as an individual and as a group member. He also demonstrated the competency of Relating to Others when he worked cooperatively with his group and was considerate of their thoughts and feelings.
