Kiwi Can

Thursday 4th August 2016

Today at Kiwi Can Mr. Numia and Miss. Tuia were not here today because they were having time off because of a death in their family. But instead of them we had another teacher but only one his name was Mr. A. He was a bit more strict then our usual teachers but he was equally cool. His real name was Mr. Afutoto but Mr. A was easier to say. At first he told us to sit on the mat behind the cones. 

Then we talked about what was the theme of the term. The theme was Resilience. The he asked about what was the topic. After the questions he would ask us to turn to the person next to you about what you think the answer is. Then he told us all to tell him the answer at once. The whole class called out Setting Goals.

After that he told us to put our hands up if we wanted to ask a question or say something and he didn't like people talking in  the middle of the session he told Danny Joe and Mateaki to sit between the girls so that they wouldn't talk. He said he did that because boys don't like talking to girls. First we played a game where you start off with one peg paged onto your clothes and you challenge other people for their pegs to get more. To win a peg from the other people you are to win one game of rock,paper scissors.

Next we talked about setting goals. He asked us about what a goal is. Then I put my hand up and said "Something you want to achieve." Then he told us what are some of our goals in school. Most of the people that answered up said that they would want to achieve the malathion standard. Later he asked if anyone played any sport. As he called out different sport names people put there hands up. The most hands up was when he said rugby. And then he said do you have any goals for rugby. Some people said stepping and passing. He said that if you wanted to achieve those goals you would have to what. Then one person answered up and said practice.

For the last activity we did the GKQ's. This time we did it twice since we had some left over time. But usually we play too games not just one. Because GKQ's are not a game. When we were finessed he said that he would do the points after we had left and would ask our teacher about what she thought about the lesson. Then we came back to the class room and blogged about it.
