Bike Skills

(saying hello in Irish) Bike Skills

Dia dhuit bloggers yesterday me and my whole class when to bike skills. I couldn't wait to do bike skills. They were two sessions just like everyone did two sessions in skate boarding. The coaches name's were Rachelle and Holly. They were telling us how to wear a helmet. When they told everyone how to wear a helmet. I got my helmet and checked that if this was the right size to wear. It was the perfect size. Holly and Rachelle split us into groups. I was in Rachelle's group. In my group we had to make a line so we can get our bikes. When I finally got my two wheel bike I was ready to ride my bike. But Rachelle told us we had to follow the safety rules how to get on and off the bike.  So we followed the safety steps how to get your bike ready before riding it. After doing some safety rules we played a game called red light green light. We had to ride our bikes in a circle and when Rachelle says red light we have to stop. But when she says green light we can ride our bikes.  The bikes were looking new and I could ride my bike so fast like a cheetah.  After playing green light red light we played a game called box game. So the rules for the box game was that if your toes touch the ground your out , if you bump with someone you are out and if you get out of the yellow line your out. We played that game some people got out finally in the end they were three people left including me. One person got out it was me and my class mate left we cycled and then in the end guess what. I won! hooray I said to myself. Our first session went so great and fun the other session was after morning tea. 

After morning tea I had some water and then I went to bike skills. We had some fruit. This time Rachelle said that we are going to play the bean bag game. In the bean bag game you have a bean bag and you have to balance the bean bag. If you drop the bean bag you have to pick it up and put it in your helmet to balance it. We got into groups of three. In my group there was Daniel and Grayson. So we had to balance the bean bag Grayson went first. After Grayson it was Daniel's and then finally it was my turn. I didn't even drop the bean bag because my head was straight. After some time we won! So Rachelle said to everyone in Rachelle's group that we had to play the box game with the whole class. The whole class played a couple of rounds. I kept on getting out but still I did not care. After playing the box game we played Chinese whisperer. The rules are the person in the front has to do a signal and everyone has to do the thing that the person in the front is doing. After playing Chinese whisperer it was time to put the bikes away and go to class. I really enjoyed biking. So Daniel asked if Rachelle and Holly are coming next week. But Rachelle said no. Everyone really wanted to do bike skills again. I had so much fun at bike skills it was the best day for me.

Skate Boarding

Hallo 

(saying hello in Dutch)                       Skateboarding

Hallo bloggers I will be telling what we did for today. We did... guess... skate boarding. But one thing was I had to watch everyone skate board because I was sick. I said to myself it does not matter. I can watch everyone skate and learn how to skate. The coaches names were Ben and Laurence. There were two sessions one was in the morning and the other one was after morning tea. So I watched my class mates skate they got into groups some people were with Ben and some people were with Lawrence. So I watched the group with Ben. Ben showed everyone some tricks I was really impressed, some tricks were hard. The tricks that everyone did were: crab walk, 180 degrees, tik tax and some more tricks. After that  everyone played a game called what's up wolf. So Laurence and Ben told everyone how to play the game. One person was the wolf you have to skate and when the wolf turns his head around you have to freeze. If did not freeze you have to take 4 steps back and then when he says dinner time you have to race. Who ever comes first gets to be the wolf. So everyone played a few rounds of what's up wolf. After playing the game everyone could do freestyles for 2 minutes. We had to go back to class I was looking forward to watching everyone skate again after morning tea. 

Okay so it was morning tea I was so excited to go to skateboarding and watch everyone. When the bell rang we had to get ready on the deck but Ben and Laurence wanted help from some children to put the helmets with the skate board I helped. So everyone started skate boarding I went to sit on a bench. The same people have to be in the same group. This time there were going to be different tricks. When I saw everyone doing the tricks some people fell on the ground. The tricks were really hard to try. Some people couldn't skate very well so I cheered their name. After doing some tricks everyone played what's up wolf again. I said to my self this was going to be exciting to watch. This time there was one rule on that game that you had to pick up your skate board and then freeze. Everyone did so many rounds in what's up wolf. This was the only game everyone played in skate boarding. After playing so many rounds of what's up wolf it was time to do free style for a couple of minutes then it was time to pack up and go to class. Everyone including me said thank you to Ben and Lourence. The thing that I liked was that people were really encouraging and did team work.                                                      

                                                                    The End! 

   

Jasmine and Aladdin school Production.

Marhaba

(Saying hello in Arabic)

Marhaba bloggers today for my blog post I will be talking about my 3 day school production. So last week on Wednesday Waikowhai primary school went to Waikowhai intermediate. We had to walk to Waikowhai intermediate I was really happy. We had to be in pairs. My buddy was Indie. Me and Indie kept on talking while we went past Green Molly Reserve. I was really nervous as I was one of the people who was going to dance in the production. So we finally arrived at Waikowhai intermediate. I did some coloring and then went out to play with everyone but we could not play with their sports equipment and we could not play with the Waikowhai intermediate kids we had to play in Keith park's playground. After the bell rang we had to go in the hall and then we had to do a practice. After practicing so much I was tried so we went back to school and we had some lunch after which we played.

It took us 2 hours to practice but I felt butterflies in my tummy because tonight was the production night so we packed our bags and went home our teachers had told everyone to arrive at 6:00 pm. Our show was based on the story "Aladdin". I arrived at the Waikowhai intermediate hall. I could see all of my friends and my class mates so I had to get changed quickly. The whole school was in the play even the junior school and the middle school were doing dances on different songs. My song's name was R.E.S.P.E.C.T The show started and I was really excited as my parents were there as well, amongst the audience. When it was my turn I was really really nervous. The song started and of we went in the whole audience were cheering for us. When the song finished the audience cheered so much. Upon the end of the show we did a bow infront of the audience and the cast members and crew. We had to repeat the show 2 more days and then it ended on Friday. Everyone told us that they were very proud of us all. I was happy that it went really awesome I was really proud of myself. 

                                     The end here are some photos of me in the production.
