Treaty of Waitangi-Te Tiriti o Waitangi.

HI it’s me Sia and this week me and my reading class, we were taking about and learning about Te tiriti o Waitangi or Traty of Waitangi, so here is some cool things about it. Māori developed extensive gardens to grow vegetables brought from Polynesia, including kūmara, taro, yam, and the gourd (hue). These were often stored in pātaka (storehouses) or subterranean pits (kōpiha/rua kūmara). Māori gathered various native plants, roots, and berries from the forests.

My animal has superpowers.

Hi and this week I did some summer learning journey and my tacks was about animals having some cool superpowers, like for my one was about jellyfish and I did some cool facts about it and can you tell me whats your animal. So here’s one cool fact that I know  is that did you know that jellyfish can’t get old or when its died because it can’t feel anything but it can sting you when you touch it but here’s one thing that I don’t know is that how can they sting you but can you tell me.

Multiplication

Hi and it’s me Sia and this week I was learning about my Multiplication and I know you guys might be saying in your head ” ohh my gush you don’t know your Multiplication” and I know my Multiplication but here is what I learn today. WALT: We use our times table to solve multiplication problems and so we take some time to think about a faster way to solve larger multiplication problems.

Sia’s Fractions

  Hi and welcome back to me blogging  another task and it’s called Fractions Practice.WALT- revise and remember our knowledge on fractions and this is what I know. So fraction is a part of a whole number! and the top number of a fraction is called a numerator and that can change. 3/4 The bottom number of a fraction is called the denominator and that does not change. 3/4 No matter how many pieces in the fraction, it all adds up to a whole. For example- When you have 3/5 and 2/5 , if you add them together, it makes 5/5 which is equal to 1 whole! When we add simple fractions, we are just changing the numerator (top number). The denominator (bottom number) stays the same. ⅓ + ⅓ = ⅔ I just added 1 + 1. The bottom number tells me how big the pieces are, so it stays the same. 2/5 – 1/5 = 1/5 Again, I just did 2 – 1. The bottom number stays the same.

Simple and Compound Sentence.

Hi and welcome back to me blogging a Simple and Compound Sentence to identify and write Simple and Compound Sentence. Here are some cool things about it and what happened and I hope you like it and place a nice comment on my blog. We write simple sentences with one idea. We had to write compound sentences that join two ideas with a conjunction (like and, but, so, because, or). Then next we had to use punctuation correctly (capital letter, full stop, comma before the conjunction if needed)

Athletics Day.

Hi and welcome back to me blogging another one of me writing about Athletics Day. Here are some cool things about it and what happened and I hope you like it and place a nice comment on my blog.

Well Athletics was held on Friday the 7th and on that day was so damn hot and too sunny because there were no clouds in the blue sky and the hot sun was beaming on us when we were doing the spots. When it was Athletics day ,I felt scared and nervous because of the sport and because I wasn’t ready! Because of my toe and I probably didn’t even train too. The people that I was sitting with were my friends, the year 7 girls. Diana ,Bella ,Mikyrah and Skylar were sitting with me in our lines.

There were 2-3 events that stood out for me were shot put ,high jump and volleyball. These were my three events that were my favourite because the first one was volleyball because teamwork makes the dream work and the best part was getting the ball out. The second one was a high jump and I kinda liked it but then the last one was shot put. I love shot put but I didn’t even come first or second but I trained my best. There’s one event that I didn’t like was the sprint because you have to sprint all the way. It’s in the title but I came 5th place anyway and I didn’t get to train that much because of my toe but I did pretty good.There was one thing that I’ll never forget was that when it was high jump I was nervous because last year I didn’t make it but this year I did make it on my second turn and I was so happy that I made and then on the second round I didn’t make it but still I was still happy for it.

There is one thing that I learned during Athletics day was doing my best and trying to be first or second or even third which is the best for me ,But there’s next year anyway and I will be training every day and making sure that I’m healthy and fit. For next year Athletics day I’m going to train everyday to stay fit and be healthy and I need to do some good fitness like running up the hill or on a mountain or just work at home or going to the pools.When it’s next year I would give advice to a year 7 like my brother who is year 6 this year. This is what I would give him ,when it’s high jump go to a hill in your street but if you don’t have one you can go to a mountain and run up and down.

One event was high jump because I was so happy that on my first jump I failed but then in the second round I made it because it was my first time and I didn’t make it when it was last year too.This year’s experience was the best because one I made it in high jump but on the second round and two it was my first time liking the sprint and I came 5th and then when it was volleyball ,bro I was happy because it was my favourite event and the best part was when I spiked the ball.I would do it because it will be good for me and it will give me my dream to be at the Olympics so that I can represent my culture.

South Korea songs K-pop.

Hi and welcome back to me blogging another task and this week team 5 were doing rotations for Inquiry. So then my class room 5 went to room 2 and their inquiry was about South Korean music or K-pop. The first one was about Miss Ilaoa talking about K-pop, short for Korean pop music, is a type of music that started in South Korea and is now loved all over the world.

It’s known for its catchy songs, cool dance moves, and colourful fashion. Even though K-pop began in the 1990s, it’s connected to Korea’s long and rich history of music and culture. So here is me  and my friends Dancing to a song called ” My little soda-pop” and I hope you like it :]

Talamea and the Turtle.

Hi and my name is Sia and today this week I did reading and it was called Talamea and the Turtle. Many years ago, on the island of Niue Nukututaha, there lived a
mahele girl named Talamea. Her skin was the colour of moonlight. Talamea was blessed with many talents. Her grandparents said she was a gift from the gods. Talamea could talk to the creatures of the sea, and she was filled with music. Talamea’s papa taught her all the old songs of Tuapa, their village. In the evenings, they liked to sit together, enjoying the cool breeze, singing of their love for Nukututaha and for their god, Tagaloa.
