Mind-Blowing Facts About digital dig

Throughout these weeks we have been learning about short cuts on our chromebook.
For an example shortcuts are when you use Ctrl something and it makes you get to
your things faster and easier. What you can do is Ctrl F and it can find a word that
you need when you can’t find it at all.  It was easy but a little bit hard
because I forget some of the shortcuts. Next time i could do better by
not talking to my friends and getting my work done. 

Did you learn anything off my DLO?

Swimming

On Monday and Thursday some of the kids in Te Ngahere went to the beach because our
pool is broken and we are on a water restriction. Every Monday and Thursday Whaea
Shanna will take kids that brought there togs and if we dont bring our togs Whaea Chrissy
will teach  Digital DIG that's where we learn about how to use a chromebook. When we
go to the beach we all done a bit of training in the water then we got to have free time.

Te Ngahere # 2

Today Te Ngahere went for another walk to the ngahere to get some ideas for our class room.
Today what happened was Whaea ronnie put as in to groups and said what part of the
class we had to design. When we arrived to the Ngahere we looked at staff on the
ground and up. It was hard trying to find staff that related to part of the room.
What was fun about the walk is seeing new thing that we didn’t see before on out bush walk.

  

Te Ngahere

On Tuesday the 10/02/2020 our class Te Ngahere went for a bush walk to the ngahere. Before we left to the ngahere we got in to 3 groups one group was with Gina other group was with whaea chrissy and the lucky last group was whaea ronnie was with The reason why we went for a walk up in the ngahere is because our class is name after the ngahere. We looked at thing that we will like in our classroom,We also found dead trees, new tree growing, old leaves and new leaves just starting to grow. When we were starting to walk we found a old tree growing on a new tree and whaea ronnie said it was just normal.

Technology

Yeasterday the year 7 and 8’s went to  moerewa to do technology and also to do cooking and wood works. When we arrived to moerewa school some of the year 7’s  went with they year 8’s for cooking because there was less year 8’s and more year 7’s. When we went into the woodwork room there was a reliever for Mr E. The first activity was to draw something that relates to your family and yourself what i found hard was drawing my 3 ideas but we were only allowed to make 1 of those 3 ideas that we had drawn. After we done our drawing the bell rage so at morning tea whaea roni made a group for turbo touch so throughout morning tea and lunch. When we finished lunch we learnt how to use some of Mr E tools we also had to write  all the learning thats where on the bored. After learning and writing we clean up and then we waited for the bus and went back to school.

Check out this great post about STEAM

On Monday the 14th of October my class, Te Ngahere  did a STEAM challenge. We were learning to make
the tallest paper
tower out  of 2 papers and 30 cm tape. What we did well is that we made a tower and made it stand.
We created a tower and we  tried because it wasn't about the winning. What didn’t work was making the
bottom thick enough and it kept on
falling over. We could of made the tower better by thinking about  where to put the tape.
What we could do better is make it
stand for more than 15 seconds.

What I did well is trying my best to make it stand before we started And talking with my group.
What I could do better is put more effort into it and use the paper and the tape useful so that it would stand.
What I could do better is not give up straight
away and just keep on going.   

HIP SURGERY

It has been 2 weeks  today. Sometime last week I went to the doctors to see what was happening to my hip. As soon as we arrived to the doctors the nurse called us in. She asked how long has this been like we told her since cross country on Friday. The nurse kept  pushing my leg up and down every 3 seconds she told my family members that I have to go to the Kawakawa hospital that reason is because I may have a sufe. For a second I got a bit worried of what a sufe was and why I had to go to kawakawa hospital for an X-ray.

Later on in the day we  arrived to the Kawakawa hospital to  get my X-ray done to see if I really do have a sufe as soon as we got to the X-ray room I started to worry again. After a while I got called into the  X-ray room they took 5 X-rays on me. After my X-ray we had to see a doctor to check if I need to go to Whangarei hospital. As soon as he said that I have to go to the Whangarei hospital I didn't really feel ok I felt really scared. Before we went to Whangarei hospital I had to get my blood test done to see if there was anything wrong with my blood.

Arriving at Whangarei hospital.

 As soon as we stepped in the hospital I started to get really uncomfortable. I got called in and my Surgeon explained what a sufe is to me I understood a little bit and told my mum that I have to sleep in Whangarei hospital because I have to have surgery tomorrow.  It was a really big day I didn’t think that this will happen. We were admitted and they said that I can do anything I wanted but not eat after 2 am because of my surgery tomorrow.

As I was saying in parts of my post that I may have a sufe, a sufe is your growth bone that is about to slip or has slipped they  have to put a screw in so that it can keep it in place. You take the screw out from your hip about 15 years old or when you have stopped growing.

The next day 

I woke up nice and bright mum said  surgery today I was happy but a bit scared mum said it’s fine you can be scared it’s your first time it’s fine they will put you to sleep and you won't even want to  wake up. You’ll be having the best dream. Before the surgery a lady came to talk to me about things that are going to happen. Like what types of ways they can put me to sleep using anesthesia,  what things can/may happen during and after my surgery. She was really helpful.

Time for  surgery

It was time for  surgery my nurse followed as one of the surgeons came to take me to the theatre room it was really overwhelming. Mum had to wear a gown and she looked like a minion so that lightened my mood.As soon as I  arrived in the room and heaps of people were looking at me and it made me nervous, they all started talking to me and preparing me with needles and tubes.I chose to get it through my I.V (intravenous) I Was asked to count to ten and then I fell asleep. 

When I woke up

.After finishing my surgery they woke me up My mum said I was very dazed and the nurse gave me an ice block to enjoy while she done my obs at 2;30pm a nurse came and got my mum to bring her to the recovery room where she gave me a kiss and waited for me to get wheeled back to my room. By then I was so hungry. Later that night my aunty Mary-Jane and cousin Jaidyss came to visit me and brought my mum and I KFC during their visit we played on the bed using the controller then she took me around the hospital it was really fun having them come and visit me and mum at the hospital it was real cool  seeing them.

Being discharged

Breakfast came and then the surgeons done the rounds and I was told I could go home I was a bit happy but a bit sad because I would miss the yummy food and playing on the bed It came closer to lunch the physio came to take me to learn how to walk up and down stairs it was a little hard but a few tries and it started to get easier and easier. We got back to my room and there was lunch. I really couldn't wait to eat I had Pizza,Ice cream and jelly. After lunch dad had arrived to the hospital we packed up and left to go home. And it was good to be back home with my family.
