Mind Blowing Facts About Mutualism

This week in Te Ngahere we have been learning about mutualism. Mutualism describes between two or more species where each species has a net benefit that means that when bees go to a male flowers and get pollen they stick to there little feet and the bees go to the female flowers and then they make babies. My new understanding is that if we didn’t have any  baby trees or baby flowers and the old trees and the old flowers would die then there won't be any flowers or trees to keep processing it would all  just be soil.  Next time I could do better by explaining what mutualism is properly .Have you ever learnt about mutualism?

Tricky Tidy Drive!

 In Te Ngahere we started a new activity call tidying our drive. We currently just started yesterday in the afternoon. First we had to help John sort out his folders we had to put a red circle around the ones that wasn’t named and we had to put a blue circle around the ones that had already had title but just not a name. 

It was fun doing this activity because it was teaching me how to clean my drive and not have things all around the place. The hardest part for me was organising them into the right file. Have you ever cleaned your drive before? 

Tricky Task Masters

 Lately in Te Ngahere we have been doing an activity called task master this is to help us  discuss and collaborate with our team members. Our activity was based around drawing we made 2 drawing but there was two runner and there was one drawer. The one that was drawing was not aloud to run outside and look at the picture but the two runners were a loud. On our first drawing the drawer was Cahlay and Kahsius and I was the two runners the frustrating part for me was not being able to touch the paper and not getting as mad. The thing that worked well for me was that we were close to the picture so it didn’t take as long to run back and forth. On our second attempted I was the drawer the hard thing for me was not being able to see the teachers drawing also getting rushed. What the challenging  part is not having clear instruction . Have you done team building before?

Tidal Waves

Last Friday  morning 10 bells rang. I was really scared. We all rushed in to class and  did the roll. While doing the  roll I was really worried what was going on, until  our two teachers told us we all had to go up to the hill. We ran up the hill; we didn’t have anytime to get our bag or our shoes. Once we got up the hill we  were all  really worried; even some kids even in tears. We watched cars coming up the hill. We heard all the sirens for the tsunami. It was really scary hearing them go on and off. A while after we waited and we seen the waves coming slowly over the rocks. While that was happening Jade and I  were sleeping on the the footpath. We thought that it would be huge but it was only 1.3 meters. Later in the afternoon this old man offered to go and get our bags. We were so happy.  Gina did some quiz games and it was really fun. When we got back we chilled then we all got ice creams given to us by Mrs Lindsay.  Have you ever been in a tsunami?
