Here is my P.B.L Reflection

My insect was a bullet ant,bullet ant is known to have the most painful sting in the insect kingdom that is why I chose this insectI am most proud of the legs because they make the insect pop and stand out.Something I found challenging was paper mache because when it was dry,you could still see newspaper so I had to leave it because it would of took too much time.The learning muscles I used were my imagining muscle and my perseverance muscle.I used my imagining muscle to imagine how the insect really looked like and I used my perseverance muscle to persevere when it got hard to never give up.

 Chapter 1
A Miracle

There were two brothers named Jake and Ian ,helping their dad fix a BMW.They were extremely wealthy and lived in a mansion at the end of Howard Street.They were inside on an extremely stormy night,when suddenly they heard a tree fall down, Smash! The ground shook as the wind blew across the city.
 As soon as the storm,stopped they dashed to the tree to see what happened.Once they arrived they saw the tree was gone and only the trunk was left.When Jake and Ian started walking back home, suddenly they heard a crackle in a forest so they returned to the forest and then- a spark of purple light,they went to see what it was.

“Hello Jake and Ian,I am a trunk and you two are very lucky” said the creature  .The weird monster was actually a nice one that had the power to heal anything. “Should we Bring the healer back home” asked Jake .“ No, we should keep it to ourselves and do something fun with the healer” said Ian.”Follow me to the underworld. Oh and by the way my name is Magic, Ok now let's go”said the healer.
It lead them to a place Jake and Ian had never seen before, it had a grassy pathway leading up to a demonic ritual portal.It opened up as soon as the healer whispered the secret password, all Jake and Ian heard was Mumbling things,it sounded like “A portal to there no one knows.Then suddenly the portal opened,it leaded to….The Twilight Forest.

When they arrived,Magic spoke “Here, you must defeat The Naga once you have defeated the boss you will get a boss head.Upon getting the head of the boss, you shall receive a reward that will help you get back to the overworld”. Ian and Jake looked so confused that they couldn't get out unless the defeated a huge beast that was nearly impossible to beat.
“ Your first boss is the naga,meet me at the armoury down the path way so you can get your armor and weapons”Said Magic and in an instant he disappeared,whoooosh!So they started running down the path way soon they arrived at the armoury,Magic gave them some knight gear and a map around the Twilight Forest.

                                                         Chapter 2 
                                       The Naga
“We have to find a stone brick that looks like a huge snake because that's the Naga. Once you get close or to loud it will break apart and attack you so watch out” whispered Magic “lets go”. Ian and Jake sprinted to the Naga to attack it.Crack Crack!! The Naga broke out of the stone and slithered to the boys. “ Oh I almost forgot, attack its tail and it will get shorter” Magic quickly said.Jake started to attack the tail and so he did but he almost got gobbled up by the Naga. Ian helped Jake get up and start attacking it more. Soon the tail got shorter and then only the head was left. Jake did the honours,he stabbed the Naga and he disintegrated.

The Naga dropped a key I had the word Naga carved on it then they asked magic what to do next she said that they had to go back to the place where we entered this world.The brothers dashed to the place. When they got there, the portal was there with a lock on it. They opened the lock and jumped through the portal after they said “goodbye Magic”.They were relieved to see there house and  gthere mum was crying when she saw them.She told them that it was midnight so they should go to sleep and they did.

Dear Mr Ford

Thank you for coming to camp because if you didn't we would not of been able to have camp and learn so much about the outside nature and environment. Thank you for telling us what to wear and bring to the activities so we wouldn't get hyperthermia.

A highlight at camp,was going caving. I liked it because it was a first experience. I had never done caving before and it was the challenging.The last cave was the most fun because it had wetas and bat poo so it was really yucky. We had to shimmy across the bat poo.Once you shimmied across you had to climb up a ladder to freedom. It was nice to get out of that stinky place.

My second highlight I will always remember was the Amazing Race. It had many fun activities but my top 2 were the wet and dry challenge and the wire bridge. Firstly, the wet and dry challenge was we  had to choose between wet and dry.I chose wet and we had to eat wet noodles in water with a fork. After a few seconds Cruze wanted to chuck the noodles so we had to cheer him on.

Secondly, the wire bridge in which we had to walk on a tight rope holding on to wires on both sides of us was scary.There was no ground to the left of me,so if I felt doomed. I managed to pass over but I nearly fell off.

A fact I found interesting about Camp Kaitawa is that it used to be a school but it closed down because it didn't have enough students.Since it is now a camp it has a lot of visitors and school going there for camps.There are so many tracks and places to visit there.

My Special Place

My Special Place

Main Ideas

---------------

1.Noise

2.Food

3.Family

4.House

--------------------------------------------------------

“Beep Beep”.My Special Place is Extremely and Horribly noisy like a baby crying.It is so blasting that I nearly started crying because it was so deafening.I had to listen to constant beeping for almost 4 hours.The reason that people beep so much is that there is no law for using your car horn,so you can use your horn whenever and as loud as you want.

Another thing that I like about this place is that they have the most delicious and scrumptious food,but there is no food better than BUTTER CHICKEN.It just has the appetising chicken taste with the curry on top,that is what gives it its taste.It is as yummy as a scrumptious pizza but better.This place is known for there yummy ‍‍foods.

This place is also special because a lot of my family lives there.My Grandpa,Aunty and Uncle all live there.The reason that a lot of my family live there is because my mum and dad were born here so my family mostly live there.I might go to this place in 2018 to meet my family once again .

I also have a house,when you go down the road turn left is our house. It is in the middle of a huge farm which was as huge as a rugby field.It has 2 toilets one indoors and one outdoors,we have one shower and stairs to the roof.When you went outside to the right was our uncle and aunt's house they had a much better house.It had a tiled inside and also stairs to the roof.

About Me

                                             ABOUT ME



My best memory was when my cousin (Manwinder) came over,we started the day by playing a 2 player tycoon on Roblox.Roblox is a game where you are a blocky character and you can play games in the game.I chose to be the owner and he chose to be the worker,but we both still had to make money in the game.We would buy items to make more money. Then our devices ran out of battery so we had to play outside,but first we ate ice cream.It was the chocolate fudge sundae flavour, we all loved it.So we went outside and did the cross bar challenge,it is where you kick a soccer ball at the top of a soccer goal which is called the crossbar.Manwinder hit the crossbar first, then I Did and my brother hit it last.It was 6:40 by the time we finished the crossbar challenge,so he had to go home.

What makes me laugh is when I do the try not to laugh challenge,I always laugh because they are so funny.The try not to laugh challenge is where you watch a person or video and try not to laugh,you watch videos like public pranks,animal fails and people failing.You really need to do it.

My much loved hobby is collecting and trading Pokemon cards.Pokemon cards are types of cards that you can open packs and get or trade them.Pokemon are little creatures that are called Pokemon such as Mega Rayquaza EX,Seismitoad EX and Lugia.They are really fun to play with,so you should get them.

A fun fact about me is I have actually never touched snow because it has never snowed in Hastings,there is never snow.It is my dream to have a snowball fight.Snow is very cold type of sand that dropped down from the sky.

On Friday I played blind throw. Blind Throw is a game in which you sit on a chair backwards and throw beanbags in hoops.You had to backwards because you were not allowed to look at where the hoops were.There were 3 hoops with a different amount of points.Each hoop was a different amount of points the closest one was 3 points then 9 points and the furthest was 13 points.it was boys vs versus the boys.I got the beanbag in the furthest one,2 times.Mostly I didn't apply enough power into my throw.In conclusion,I think I did pretty good,But on unfortunately the girls won.

Who created the Olympic values and why ?why?
Pierre de Coubertin was the man that made the Olympic values. He made the Olympic values because he wanted the Olympians to pursue excellence, enjoy the effort, have balanced minds, bodies and character, show fair play and respect others.


Our design project was to make a rap that explained the Olympic values.Here is our Olympic rap based on the Olympic values

The Olympic Rap

Sameer: The Olympic values, they have their pride,
Sameer: they are dancing with joy, oh! Just nevermind.
Jeevanjot: And don't forget the fair play, ya know, it's so awesome, LET'S GO!Jeevanjot: The respect for others is overwhelming,
Sameer: I don't know what to say, maybe just don't give me a pounding?Jeevanjot: The positive is pretty good cause I know I'm rocking up that neighbourhood.
Jeevanjot: Last but not least you gotta take it in and balance it out,
Sameer: your mind and body needs to work if you want to do
All: THE AWESOME WORK!!!!!!!!

How We Made Our Olympic Rap        
What We Needed:
GarageBand (IPad App)
Collaboration Muscle
Google Docs/Paper
Words for rap
Growth mindset
--------------------------------------------      
Procedure of how we made our rap
First create the words that you will use in your rap.
Then use GarageBand to make the best music that fits your words.
Also,record your music. And your voice. Then put your voice and the music together.
After go save it and then you should be done!
Present the rap to your friends and family.
Here’s our rap in Audio Only
           Rap.
----------------------------------------------
                  \Reflection/            ----------------------------------------------
Jeevanjot:I had a great time making our rap I was mostly on task I got distracted sometimes Cruze was not really doing any work but sameer was on task,I got back into to doing making our rap in the end we had to make a few changes and then we were done.

Sameer: It was a interesting and fun time to work with Jeevanjot and Cruze they both worked collaboratively with me. The most hardest thing for me was when we had to edit our rap and words so many times but at the end we were able to finish it.

Cruze: When we started to create the rap I knew it would be a hard task, k never thought we would get this far. The hardest thing for me was finding the person who created the Olympic values
And the music for the rap was hard as well as creating the words.

Report Reflection for Mid Year

How have the learning muscles helped you with your learning in Maths and/or Literacy and in one other learning area for example Matariki, P.E, Art or Camp?

No bling
Options = Maths & Literacy plus one other listed
Maths or Literacy plus one other listed (e.g. maths and your choice; literacy and your choice)

Maths,P.E

Maths,the learning muscle,resilience has helped me in extension maths when things get too tricky and when I jump into the learning pit.Such as when we went to the Hastings Intermediate mathletics competition . I had to use my resilience muscle to answer all the question we got given (the questions were very tricky).In P.E, the learning muscle noticing has helped me by listening to the instructions and understanding them.I also had to notice how my teacher that was teaching us was dribbling so I knew how to properly dribble and control the ball in miniball.

Explanation of why cars were invented.

Why vehicles were invented.

                               
Vehicles were invented to be transportation.Transportation is something that moves and takes you somewhere.

Vehicles have a variety of wheels.Wheels don't always look the  same,Wheels make the car move.Different vehicles have different number of wheels.Wheels are controlled by the steering wheel.Vehicles have many numbers of seats,it depends on what vehicle you have.Seats are L shaped things that you seat on.

There are headlights on a car,they help it see in the dark. They are really useful at night.The driver can also change the brightness of the lights and also change if they are on or off.

A vehicle has a steering wheel.A steering wheel is a circle shaped wheel that controls the wheels which are controlling which direction you go.

Cars also have a boot,it is just used as extra storage,it can be very useful in some scenarios.There is usually a button near the driver seat to unlock the boot or a button on your car keys.

The main part of the car is the engine.The engine is powered by fuel. It makes the car move.the car burns the energy to make heat which creates a force.

There is Many types of fuel such as super unleaded fuel,this is the fuel with the most octane. The fuel is available in the U.K. There is also Biodiesel.This fuel type is made from plant crops.

Each car has car key which turns on the car you can add decorations on your car keys.

Finally,In my opinion I think that cars were an incredible invention.
