Fungi and plants are similar in that they – The cell walls of the plants are made of cellulose and they can reproduce through seeds and spores. Also Plants and fungi are very similar in that they are both eukaryotic organisms.    

 

c) However, they are different as they – Plants reflect on light and the heat of the sun to make seeds, cones and spores. As they both are similar animals are more alive and don’t relay on the sun to give them energy and to reproduce as they have organs Stating the fact that animals are different compared to Plants  

Plants and animals are similar in that they – Feed,respire,excrete,grow,move reproduce and are both sensitive to their environment.

Athletics

My Events Chart

 

Event Time/ distances 
Sprints 15 seconds 
Discuss  13.6
High jump 1.2 meters
Beep test 9.1

 

In PE we have been studying a range of athletic events in preparation for the school Athletics Day. We have learned about how to correctly perform some new events. We have learned about… Discuss, High jump (choose two new events)

 

I have chosen to focus on … (Sprints)

 

Interesting pieces of information about Discus are: You are supposed to have a specific form to throw the discus in order to gain more and more meters like these famous discus throwers …

The world record for the furthest throwing discus is 78.04 meters that is nearly quarter of an entire        rugby field!!! leaving 22 meters away from the try line….

 

 

 

 

 

There were a number of ways that I demonstrated respect towards other students during this unit. I did this by… Cheering other students on, Checking up on them and always maintaining a positive attitude towards other students as well as teachers.

 

It is important that I develop resilience when we experience success or failure because… always maintaining a good attitude and willing to give it another shot even after failure is still key to being an athlete.

 

I can build my resilience when I experience success or failure by…Having a great attitude and always being humble even when you fail or succeed in sports or in other relatable events

My Hauora Learning

This term we have been learning about mental health and hauora, what is means to me is relaxation, clear thoughts, and a fresh start, My favourite activity so far would either be this tasks or learning about or Family Roots. I understand Taha Tinana and about my physical education but on the other hand I don’t because of being mentally strong. I need to learn about more of the physical and about what I put through my body and my daily stretching Thank you For reading my Blog!!!

Indian Migration NZ

WALT: Understand Indian migration into Aotearoa.

 

The first Indians to arrive in New Zealand were only months behind Captain Cook in 1769. They were explorers and didn’t stay in Aotearoa.

 

The next recorded Indian in Aotearoa was in 1809 and was a slave aboard a ship. He jumped off the ship and ended up marrying a Māori woman. 

 

The next big wave of Indians arrived after World War 2 when we had a labor shortage and needed skilled people such as dentists, doctors and engineers. 

 

One thing that was a barrier for Indians settling in Aotearoa was they didn’t look like New Zealanders. They found this insulting as they had been living in New Zealand for as long as lots of other cultures.

 

Diaspora refers to the people living away from their homeland. One reason that so many people move away from India is because they are one of the biggest countries in the world.

 

Diwali symbolizes the greatness and victory to each tribe that had contributed to deciding the festival and celebrating the light over darkness. Basically saying “Good over evil” and a day where they celebrate their great ancestors that had made it possible – each year we celebrate Diwali on 14 November In New Zealand. 

There are 6,000 Indians that live in Christchurch.But 240,000 Indians that live in NZ.
