Go The Distance

  

This Is Room 12's movie for the 2017 Manaiakalani film festival, this is the tenth annual Film Festival. Meafou and Viomoana were our presenters, and I was so proud of them. There were so many schools and so many movies, my favorite one was helping hands, which was by Room 1 of Ruapotaka School. This movie is about how you can be a rugby champion player. 

Swimming

For the year 7 and 8 boys we are very close to going to the Swim Magic Pools. I am very excited to go and get one hour swimming lessons and learn more about how to swim and learn how to breathe longer under water. Next week Friday we start swimming, all we have to bring is our towel and a extra pear of underpants.

Testing

Today was our first day of testing for the end of the year reports, the teachers are checking if we have improved throughout the year and gained any knowledge. All of Room 12 was tested at the same time, we all had separated our desk to make sure we're not cheating of others. We did two test today one was on spelling and the other on Maths, for our Maths tests we had to do multiplication, division, subtraction, addition and lastly a combined test with all four, all of us had to complete each coulomb  on the sheet in less then two minutes. For the spelling test Mr Reid had called out a word two times, and some of the words he used in sentences because they were Homophones. All this week for us, is going to be testing, the teachers are going to be working very hard on our end of the year reports.

Colour Changing

Room 12 had done a science experiment about changing colors. The changing of the color involved a disc, three different colours which is red, blue and green. The first thing was use a circle based to help you guide and draw the circles, you have to draw three so two can be glued together and one can be on its own. Once your circles have been drawn we had to colour them in, after that we had to measure the dots that the piece of wool is meant to go threw, and it had to be two centimeters away from each other.
We had to do our dots then cut out the circles and thread the wool threw the two holes. We either had to spin it clock wise or anti clock wise.

What We Did At Tech

At tech the year sevens went to graphics. At graphics some people carried on with there art that they didn't finish last week, the people that had finished and some others were starting on the new art project, making a box, but before we did that we had to create a new drawing and type down our thoughts on what we think graphics is about. After we had finished that we had to do a Analysis Of How To Make A 3D Box. Me, Mary and Vika were working together and we all finished our thoughts on what we think graphics means.

What I did At Tech

At tech today we had graphics, all it was  today was a caring on from last week. I had finished my work and so had Izabella and Saluselo. I was working with Vika and Mary, we all had something to do and we were all busy. Last week I had finished my out line for my art work and this week I had finished my coloring. Mr Pineda our graphics teacher called out our names to see if we were here. Mr Pineda was going round complementing on peoples work, he added points if you were working hard, succeeding and others.

Cross Country

Today was the forth day of spring and we started to do our cross country. Cross country is what we were doing for fitness so we can build up our speed and our long distances running. We have to do this every day for the whole week for our fitness, we have to go round two times. The teachers are standing round the corners and they are watching us run. Before we were running throw the streets we were practicing around the inside of the school. The teachers say breath threw our nose and out from our mouths.
