Maths

 For today's maths, I put the tasks on a slide to complete them. The tasks are about symmetry, reflection and rotation. There's a reflection tasks in one of the slides which you can do yourself.

This was a great fun task to do, I had to think hard on them.

Did you complete the reflection shapes? If so what did it look like? And was it easy or hard?

Reading - article writing

 Today for reading I Read a PDF called "News for you" and complete some slides. In the slides I make connections, evaluate, summarise, and do a article writing.

Writing a article is something new to me, I struggled a bit but got through it.

What was your favourite part about the slides? Did you think my article writing was good?

Science - Condensation

 Today I did a science experiment when I put a cold cover on boiling water. There were also some slides for the task.

Here is a video of me doing the experiment.

Activities for Taha wairua

 Today for health/PE my task is to create five activities for my Taha wairua.

1. Spiritual: for this you first laydown on the grass and breath deeply. Then sit in the sun and enjoy the warmth. Next, do five deep breaths.

2. Physical: Get on your bikes and go for a ride, enjoy the nature and the surroundings around you. After, do some basic exercises like jumping jacks, and then walk slowly around your back yard for a cool down.

3. Mental: do something quiet, read a book in the corner for 20 minutes. Then do some drawing, draw what your feeling, and then, lay down and have a rest.

4. land, roots: Go and take care of your pets or plants, play are with them. Next, sit in your favourite area and admire the view. Next, you can sit in your backyard and feel the grass.

5. Family and social: Have a chat with someone in your bubble, and talk to them for a while. Next, talk to some of your friends online and have a conversation with them. After, help someone doing chores in your bubble.

That is 3 ways to look after each of your Taha wairua.

Diwali - Five days of Diwali

 This week Diwali is happening, I learn about the five days of Diwali and how they celebrate them. Each day is something special, the first day is worship of wealth, the second day is small Diwali and the third is the main diwali festival. The fourth day is Bali padyami and the fifth is the love between brothers and sisters.

Rangoli patterns

 Today in the theme of diwali I made rangoli patterns using a geoboard. I look through
a video of geoboard rangoli patterns and took some inspiration to make the image below.

This was so fun! It took me some time to make this so I hope you enjoy.

What did you like about this, and what do you think I could improve?
