Piasco art

 What is Picasso art? I asked myself. Picasso art is a type of art that doesn't need to be perfect, it is good in your own way. Picasso art is weird, your hair is all over the place, your eyes are different, you have got patterns on your face and your shoulders are different heights. 

When the teacher told us about Picasso art and how weird it is I thought my art was going to look like a total freak but I was wrong, it looked really cool.Picasso art doesn't have to look like you, because if it did I did mine completely wrong. Here is an example of my Picasso art.

  

Maggie's first day!

   Maggie's first day

Yay! I am so excited for Maggie “the new student” to come.  Ella and I waited by the gate for Maggie, she arrived with her mum and brother, but her brother rushed off with his friends before we saw him though. We introduced ourselves and showed Maggie and her mum around, we showed them all the classrooms, the pool, the hall, the playground, the bike racks and the orchard.  The second bell rang, it was piercing listening to that for so long. When it stopped we were able to tell them that it was the second bell, so we had to go to class now, we showed Maggie inside to the mat.

 Koka Pip introduced Maggie to the class and showed her where to put her stuff.  Rio, Ella & I all sat down at a quiet workspace, we all decided to get our question of the week done first. After 1 hour and a half we got done two of our quick writes and questions of the week.  The teachers let us go to morning tea. We all raced to the door and scrambled out.  We dashed off to the playground and crawled up the rock climbing wall.  We went down the pole a few times then we went to the tightrope. It was very wobbly and didn’t help that the boys were shaking it!  We heard the bell and sprinted back to class to learn our digi dig. When Koka Pip said what our digi dig was, Maggie, Rio & I thought it was an online game about  cybersmart, but when we looked on the slides it wasn't. It was a task.

We had got half way through our digi dig and realised we had done it completely wrong! It took us about ten minutes to fix up our mistake & then it was lunch time.  40 minutes later we had finished lunch and we were coming back to get something to eat. We finished off the day with a game of Annihilation, which Maggie had never played before, so it was pretty new for her. I thought Maggie's day was a great first day. I am crossing my fingers that she likes it and comes back tomorrow.

Rhythmic callback

 YES! We got a callback from the gym club for our rhythmic dance performance . I can't believe this, well I can but this is such good news.  After school I sprinted home as fast as I could, I could feel the breeze in my face. I quickly unpacked my school bag a race to the car. My mum took me to the gym club then got a seat.  I started to get into a cold sweat and started to worry if I mess up, or I forget my lines, or stumbled. But I told my self I would go on stage and be the best ringmaster ever.

"Wainui Beach please enter the stage." We hopped up in our line order, we took our places behind Girls High and waited nervously. We watched a few dances and how amazing all of them where. "Wainui Beach School take your positions please." We all walked on stage, our arms and legs were trembling. I got ready to start then the music started to play I started doing my one handed cartwheel but then it was my time to shine.  I started acting out my solo for about 30 seconds, then we started to dance.  We gave it our all. When we got off stage we were so proud of ourselves.

We watched two teams preform, then it was finished Rhythmic was done. It was so fun, I wanted experience it all again. After we could go in the practice room and get changed and get warm. I thanked our coach so many times, she was the best coach ever, she helped us when we didn't know what to do, so thank you Jacks so much.     

 

Gym Festival

 It is 1 week and two days until the Gym Festival!  I am so nervous all these thoughts went through my brain what if I muck up, what if I don't stick the landing, what if I forget the moves?   I can do this I kept telling myself.

Every morning we practice our floor, beam, and vault at 8.30 with Koka Ngaire so we will be ready for the competition. Alivia, Charlotte M, and I are not doing competition but Aria is competing. We have all got our floor routine nailed as we had to make it up all by ourselves.

Vault was easy once I got the hang of it because I kept putting my feet closer to the ground each time which was how i got the hang of it.

Beam was the hardest off all it was easy learning it but the moves where hard.  The easy moves where dip steps and the ending when we cartwheel/roundoff off. The hard moves where getting on the beam, holding your leg, and doing arabesque.

Staying Cybersmart Online

Hello, today I will be telling you about how to look after your chromebook. You need to remember that the littlest things could wreck your chromebook. Like one little drop of water could get in the keys and then, it would go into the wires, and 'kaboom' your chromebook has broken...

Interschool ATHLLETICS

On Wednesday me and a few others went to Interchool Athletics. 

My first event was ball throw I tried my hardest to get the ball to go as far as possible but the ball just missed the flag so we didn't come a place in ball throw but it doesn't really matter because we tried our best and had fun. Then it was the boy's turn they did really well and got our school first place.

Next was running, I didn't come a place in the 100m sadly but Charlotte.M got a place she made it into the finals which was very good because it was stiff competition.

Overall I think our team did including we came second in the relays. And I had so much fun.
