Immersion Assembly Recount - Kyron

Welcome Bloggers to my immersion assembly post!. Our theme for this term is "Musical Madness. Today is the first day of Term 4! The 16th of October! Yes the holidays are over :( but lets start.

Musical Madness Saves the day:

Mr Burt, Mr Jacobsen and Mrs Nua, Mr Sommerville, Mr Wiseman created a song for the school called Musical Madness saves the day, Mr Burt and Mrs Nua sang and Mr J used a trumpet. Mr Sommerville was playing the drums he was amazing!, Mr Wiseman had the bass guitar! Mr J and Mr Sommerville’s outfits were funny they had t-shirts with a fake muscle graphic on it.

(Team Performances)

                                      

Team 1 had an enthusiastic performance. The teachers sat on the stage and had play cards to play with! They were playing the card game “Snap” and they reacted in many ways. They would listen to music while playing the game and see their reaction of how they would act when the music changes.

Team 2 Had a great musical performance, Ms Gaston pulled out her ukulele and sat down by the microphone and started playing one of the Lion Kings theme songs named "In the jungle" and started singing as well. Then the other team 2 teachers came out with other instruments and all started playing the instruments and started singing way faster!.

Team 3 had a very cool movie! It was very entertaining! They had a movie named “MTV” where they lip sync popular songs and compare it to their emotions they are feeling present. For example if they wanted to eat a sandwich they would sing a verse from a song that had the saying “I want a sandwich”

Team 4 had an awesome movie as well! They had a movie such as a “Carpool Karaoke” where they sing songs in the car and record themselves singing! It was really funny! Also they had instruments in the car too!

Team 5 - (Our team) had a really cool performance! They simply had Mr Wiseman and Ms Tapuke acting as parents! They were talking to Mrs Tele’a, Miss Ilaoa and Whaea Kelly like they were their kids! They were watching a short clip from the “Lion King” and reacted with different songs and emotions like Team 1 did!

Thanks For Reading!

My thoughts on class speeches. - Kyron

 WALT - We are reviewing how to produce a quality blog post and comments.

I’m going to tell you my thoughts on one of our classmates speech. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to see the best speakers out in the street due to me not being there at the time.

Most Appealing to you? and why?
I think Amelia's speech was the most appealing, It was about her nana that passed away. Amelia always wondered why her nana was happy at a school always cleaning toilets and classrooms , Amelia would always go and help her nana after school. It wasn't because she liked her job it was because she loved seeing her grand kids. Now Amelia knew why she was always happy.

I chose Amelia's speech because I really thought that this was touching.

Which speech was the most entertaining? Most thought provoking?.

I found that Talita's speech was the most entertaining, She gave us some tips what to do when there's a powercut with your siblings. She said their always on their phone using their data which I think is true. She gave us the fist tip to light a candle then blow it out then light it again which was weird but she said its fun so I guess its "Fun?". Oh and the next tip was to save the ice-cream she said use the candle to find the ice-cream and eat it before it melts because the fridge has no power right?.

I chose this speech because I liked her confidence but it was also very funny! she kept laughing and laughing we all enjoyed the speech so thats why I picked this speech.

Speech Reflection

Kyron #GEGNZ

Today the year 7&8 extension group headed off to the GEGNZ Student Summit at Ormiston Junior College to present our projects. I was in the scratch team helping kids make their own games!, We took 2 vans for transport, when we first got there the school looked amazing! as we went through the entrance we got our lanyard and also got our own google pens!. After that we went into the auditorium, they told us about the Student Summit and the tv show producers from Young Ocean Explorers were there telling us about their amazing adventures in the ocean.

Then we headed off to our classes and did our presentation, I said my part I enjoyed speaking about how I use Scratch to learn. The Summit was a great experience.

Speech - Kyron

Good Morning class this is why I think Your culture is important!

I think everyone’s culture is important, because its your nationality. Most people are able to speak English. But if your from another country/have a different culture that’s awesome,and you even may be able to do a cultural dance. Some people seem to be surprised when other people speak other languages. But if your parents or you move to another country and you don't know how to speak English but then you learn and you forget your own cultural language. So don’t forget that your language is in your ancestors , it has been passed down from your other family members. Awareness of our own culture is important, because it can keep us from projecting our values onto others.

My cultures are Pakeha , Chinese and Maori , But for me I only really know English and a little bit of Maori I barely know any Chinese but once I go to college I want to take the Chinese language class.

Kyron -Immersion assembly

Today was the start of a new term - term 3!. The term’s topic is called “Guardians Of The Galaxy” , We are learning all about space such as planets as well , the galaxy and life on other planets , and to see if humans can live on other planets if earth had ever ended. So then we go into the hall for the immersion assembly and then the lights turned off.

Team 1: And now team one starts off with there movie and topic of what they are doing this term. So team one started off with their movie and it was a song about how they go into space and there were flying cars!. And then the teachers missed the students at Pt England so they decided to fly back to earth.

Team 2: And now time for team 2! - The movies plays and it’s all about Pt England and exploring  space but it’s them singing about us!.

Team 3: Team 3 and their topic was about life and what you do everyday and how boring it can be!. It’s also about the seasons of earth then Mr Moran was in a pink dress he looked like a girl!.

Team 4: Mr Sommerville and team 4 are looking at if life can be lived on other planets? If earth will ever end or become extinct?.

Team 5: Team 5 was the best act! The teachers came out onto the stage and started rocking out about the planets and space and then the teachers had stars all over them, they had guitars and drums , pianos. Mrs Judd was singing the song it was funny!.

What i’m going to enjoy about this term is learning about the moon and space and all other kind of things about space because I really like NASA and rockets. I always thought if I could go to space.

Kyron And Simon Scratch Game Reflection

The Fate of My Holiday

In the holidays I had a lot of fun I hanged out with my cousins and spent time with my family. I also went to the movies with my cousins to watch The Fate Of The Furious at the late night session that was really cool! it was about Dom who betrayed his family for Elena to do work for her and steal the EMP. It was the biggest problem for Doms family they needed to get the EMP before anyone did. But before Dom betrayed his family when they stole the EMP from the army base Dom smashed into Lukes car and stole the EMP for Elena. (I don't want to ruin the rest of the movie for the viewers).

Then I went up to Leigh with my other cousins for the day we went down to the beach for a swim , the waves were huge! the water was cold and nice. It was a super long drive! it was like an hour because of the traffic!.

I also stayed home and played games all day!. My mum brought me a new gaming monitor for my setup! I was so happy when I got it!. But I didn't really do much in the holidays because I felt like sleeping all day! I was lazy.
