Camp series 3.

Hello bloggers, 3 weeks  ago our class Rimu went on a school camp to Arthurs pass. I am going to tell you about the walk up Bealey Spur. I think that it is fun because it was very long,steep and tiring. Although the time to walk up Bealey Spur gave people the chance to talk to each other, people were moaning because they were tired. I was very tired by the time we got to the finish but I was pleased I had done the walk. Have you ever done a lone walk like Bealey Spur? Have you ever been to school camp? If you have been on school camp what did you like about it?

I have a dream.

Hello bloggers. We are about to start our learning on speeches in Rimu. When I heard this I was happy. Before we get into the learning and creating, we had a task to do to train our brain. In order to set up our mind for speeches, we used the six tools in the mental toughness toolkit to create a motivational drawing of ourselves. We used google drawings and  and my DLO is below- a visualisation of me during my speeches learning. My dream for how it will all go. While I was creating this drawing I thought about what my speech would be about.  https://www.publicdomainpictures.net/en/view-image.php?image=34852&picture=theatre-curtains Have your ever done a speech? What was it about? Do you have any tips? If you are writing a comment on this blog, you could choose to use these sentence starters. Positive- I enjoyed the part when. Thoughtful- Did you think about. Helpful- How come. Goodbye, bye Max.

Blog commenting.

 What I  know about blog commenting:

It needs to be kind if you have learnt that  so that the person you have commented on is not feeling sad and/or  bullied. Try to get as much detail as possible so that the blogger can read it and think you have done  a good job. A blog comment is a comment on a blog post.  Hello Ashlee. I like how you Put a DLO in. You taught me that you like horses. Next time, you could make the slide change a little longer. Goodbye, from Max.Hello India. I like how you explained what book creator was. You taught me that there is an app called book creator. Next time, you could make it a bit longer. Why did you blog about this? Goodbye, from Max.

Storytime with Max.

Hello bloggers. I am going to tell you a story.  It is about a sinking Oil tanker. 
Once upon a time there was an Oil Tanker. It was called The Unsinkable. On its maiden voyage the captain drove away from the dock. Meanwhile one of the officers found a damaged bedroom. The Oil Tanker hit some rocks, causing it to sink. The Captain orders an evacuation of the Unsinkable. One of the Officers landed on the ground on his  face. Meanwhile the oil exploded,causing the Unsinkable to sink faster. One of the crewmembers lands on his buttocks and drowns. Meanwhile, the captain sacrifices himself to the blaze so that the remaining  people on board could survive. The Oil tanker finally sinks while many people are watching movies. In the aftermath, one of the survivors sends his son off to school at Yaldhurst Model School. While there, he talks to the principal. The end.

How to use copyrighted images.

Hello bloggers.
I am going to talk about copyright.  _hre is a link to the uru manuka site. Here is an image of my all about me.  We looked at a slideshow  and out images in to teach ourselves about copyright. Copyright is the act of stealing something that you don't own similar to burglary but it is still different. If it happens without then the person who did  it goes to jail. The owner of the copyright would be asked if they gave permission to copyright stealer to reproduce it. Goodbye, bye Max.

Stranger Danger.

Hello bloggers. Today we learnt about Stranger  danger. It means if you meet an anonymous person who says that you have to go with them don't listen to them but tell your parents that you were approached as soon as you have the chance. It is important to warn people so if it is an escaped criminal then the police can arrest them. If you see someone hanging around schools  or playgrounds this needs to be reported.  This  was discussed in class today because there is a man in Christchurch pretending to have lost his dog. He approaches young girls at school and asks them to come and help him find his dog. So if you see a person acting suspiciously then you need to report it. It is also important to keep yourself safe by never going with someone you or your parents don't know.  Have you ever been approached by a stranger?
Goodbye, bye Max.

Anything but typical.

Hello bloggers,

Are you typical or neurotypical? Our class is reading an amazing book called Anything but Typical. It is about a boy called Jason and he is neurotypical. What is neurotypical you might ask? Neurotypical is when your reactions are different actions from typical actions. When Jason gets nervous he starts flapping his hands👏,when the class sees him doing it they think it is different.

Being neurotypical for Jason is hard because he feels like he is not like the rest of his family. This makes him feel like he is on his own. 😭

Do you know anyone who is neuerotypical? Goodbye,bye Max.
