2013 Reflection

My life at Pt. England school is much more easier for me to learn and to participate. What I've enjoyed in P.E is my friends they make me happy nearly every day. My friend Melvin is sometimes funny and sometimes annoying. He can make me angry and can make me sad, but he is still my best friend. 

 The sports that I played this year was Rugby, Rugby league, Cricket, Tag, and Touch. My friend Melvin is sometimes funny and sometimes annoying. He can make me angry and can make me sad, but he is still my best friend. 

The teachers at Pt. England school are awesome and fun. They let us have free time when we are good, but if we don't want to have free time we go outside and play Capture the flag. We play class against class. 

Reflection_2013

Having a netbook is better than paper and pens. We get to go on sites that has our work which is room-20- site and team-5- site. It helps me to get our work finished. Its easier to go on the site than searching for our work, and it is a good site to use because everything is all in the one place.

What I learnt from this year Is to be a good kid and to be a egg. It is really hard for me to be dodgy and not to be dodgy. Now I have learnt to not be and egg and not  to play games.  I have been sometimes a not good boy. I never listen what the has said to me. But now my friends had taught me to be a good boy.

My Squires has taught me some new strategies and new equations. It helps me to get the answers right. I feel that I know everything that my has taught at school.

Tevita and Frankie _ Swimming

The first time I went to swimming it was all about people that could know how to swim. There was 3 groups. I was in the high group with my friend Frankie, Uili, and Gabriel. After the pools me and Frankie went to the beginners group.

Because it was boring in the high group. But then I thought why did I come to the beginners. It was way boring then the high group. So I tried to sneak from the beginners and lied but the instructor already knew that I was lying

when the instructor knew we were lying we said to her can we go back and she said to us no you guys have be here for 3 minutes so you guys can stay cause yous two have been wasting my time.

Tevita Term 4 Presentation

This is a Presentation that I made about my own question.

Tevita - Math work

Tessa has bought 40 mini chocolate bars to put in goodie bags at her party. She has 8 goodie bags. How many does she need to put in each? 40 DIVIDED BY 8 = 5

Tevita - Math work

There were 225 people at the movies then 8 had to leave. How many were left? 225 - 8 = 217

# Math Test #

There were 55 cards shared out between 5 friend's you put 5 or 10 in each box first and they will have 27. 5 cards each. 

Tevita - Gloss test

1. 64 - 8 = 56
64 - 4 = 60
60 - 5 = 56

2. 72- 9 = 63
72- 2 = 70
70 - 7 = 63

3. 41 - 6 = 45
41 - 1 = 40
40 - 5 = 45

4. 268 - 124 = 4
200 - 100 = 100
60 - 20 = 40
8 - 4 = 4

5. 72 - 56 = 76
56 + 76 = 72
you jump 4 to get up to 60 and then jump 72 and that will be up to 72. Then you add it altogether 72 + 4 = 76 

math work - term 4

6. The shop is selling jandals for $9 a pair.  They have sold $486 worth of jandals so far. How many pairs have they sold?

The first at school _ Tevita

Draft#2

Waiting nervously in the office with my nana  I said to myself,  “Man the schools in New Zealand are way different than in America.”  When we were in America we didn’t have to wear any uniform, but in New Zealand you do wear uniform. I noticed than in America has netbooks but New Zealand does.

Mrs Flavelle the office lady  walked towards me and said, “Good Morning how are you.” “ I’m fine thank you ” I replied nervously. “which classroom am I going to be in” I asked.  You are going to be in Room 16. So she  me took into Rm 16. I was too shy to go in.  My body was shaking like if there were a earthquake happening.  

Mrs Flavelle called to me “Are you alright it’s okay they're nice kids.  I walked slowly into the class and sat down on the mat. Kids that knew was asking these questions “Are you from America,” “Did you come from the States.” “Yes I did come from the States” as I whispered to Mateo.

“WOOAH! that’s cool.” My teacher was Mr Somerville. He is kind, funny and sometimes dry. But most of all he is the best. He was the best teacher I ever had. He let us play outside, play on games, and let us watch movies.  

RIIIIIIIIIING! as the bell rang. “Time for morning tea.”


Draft#1

On the first day of school Mrs Flavelle took me into Rm 16. I was too shy to go in. My body was shaking like if there were a earthquake happening.  Mrs Flavelle said to me “Are you aright it’s okay they're nice kids. So walked inside the class and I sat on the mat. “Are you from America,” “Did you come from the States.” “Yes I did come from the States” as I said to the students.

“WOO AH! that’s cool.” My teacher was Mr Somerville. He is kind, funny and sometimes dry. But most of all he is the best. He was the best teacher I ever had. He let us play outside, play on games, and let us watch movies.

RIiNG! as the bell rang. “Time for morning tea” Mr Somerville said. “Do you have lunch” as Mateo said to me. Come let’s go and play outside.

Today we had 40 minutes to write about our first day at school. We are setting our goals for our self for the term

    

Melvin Tevita _ Earthquake Hit Pakistan

A major earthquake has hit  Pakistan, causing  a island sea just off the country’s southern coast. That earthquake was so powerful that it caused the seabed to create a small island about 600 meters away from the coast of Pakistan in the Arabian sea. The officials say the rate of the earth-quake was unknown but 45 people has die and it may just increase.

Mahia Mural

Mahia is an artist. She has been commissioned to paint a mural on wall of a company's warehouse. The company wants the mural to be abstract (not representational) and they want it to show the colours of their company logo. They have specified it needs to have 1/3 blue,  1/6 red, 1/12 yellow, 1/12 white 1/12 purple and 1/4  green. They want it to have 2 lines of symmetry (reflection)  and  a rotating and translating pattern somewhere.

At home _ Poem

Where I’m from I smell burning toast, go and open the door

Where I’m from I smell burning hair, girls don’t know how to iron their hair

Where I’m from I hear people talking tongan, too hard to speak that language

Where I’m from I hear my cousin  playing games, what a game freak

Where I’m from I taste the nice tongan food, smells good

Where I’m from I taste the hot and warm cup of tea

Where I’m from I feel my nice and soft pillow

Beach_Poem

Where I’m from I lept off the rock it felt like I was Michael Jordan doing a slam dunk into the water.

Where I’m from I feel the breeze coming past me flicking my hair, felt like tornado going to blow me away in the air.

Where I’m from I taste the salty, sea water

Where I’m from I hear screaming and laughing of kids playing in the sand.

Where I’m from I see birds searching for fish, starving to death.  

Where I’m from I smell cow poo in the grass, couldn’t breath with that smelliness of the poo.

Springbok Protester

In 1981 there was a rugby game played in Hamilton. Thousand and thousand of fans really wanted to watch it. I was one of the protester’s that had to try stop the springbok tour. Marching to the Hamilton stadium the protesters were huddled together arms linked. Tearing down the barbed wire fence we were chanting 1 2 3 4 “WE DONT  WANT RACIST TOUR.” 5 6 7 8 “THE WORLD CAN BE A BETTER PLACE.”

Holding up signs yelling out “STOP SPRING TOUR.” A plane in the sky dropping down smokes and flower bombs, filling the air like an orange fog.  Rugby fans were shouting “GET OFF THE FIELD!” the man shouted from the crowd.  These men were wearing motorcycle helmets with shields. Surrounding us.   

Reflection Writing

Message: The message was to illustrate about love

 Shots and Steadiness:  For our different shots we use all kind of shots like High, low, far, and close. But the camera doesn't make the it steady.

Acting: My acting for the movie is sometimes mocking around and laughing too much. It's hard for me to act in front of my friends cause they always  laugh at me. The interaction in the movie is I'm single and then Frankie comes and sings to me and then we go somewhere then dump Frankie and I go to Mateo and sing durka durka. Then Mateo pushes me away then I walk away Frankie comes out of the blues and says "I should've bought you flowers." 

 Flow:Not all of the scenes compare with the others only some do.  

Key Competencies (For those analysing their own movie only): Well sometimes my group mock's around and goes to a different place and starts to film somewhere else. But we always work good together.

Music - Tevita

Music is the most important thing in my life. It makes me feel energetic, and  happy. It tell’s you about the world and how it feels when you're in the real world. It Makes me feel entertain because my body tells me to get up and dance, And I will show my groovy dance moves on the dance floor.

My favourite singer and rapper is Chris Brown and 2Pac. They can dance perform on stage and there sometimes funny. My other favourite rapper is Eminem cause his fast at rapping and My favourite singer is Michael Jackson cause his the king of pop and plus he can do the moonwalk.

Music makes me feel energetic cause when I'm really tired and when I put on my headphones it makes me go crazy. Music makes me happy because it feels like I want to rescue people that are in danger and people that need help.

Prospective Writing -- Tevita and Setefano

The determined boy was dangling from the icy mountain. As he approached the tip of the mountain he pulled himself up with all his might he was relieved that he had achieved his goal. As he arrived at the main entrance of the dojo, he was shy and cold. All of a sudden a creepy old man had opened the door. The man with a penetrating stare at the boy was making the kid scared asking if he could come inside, but every time he knocks on the door the mischievous old man tells the boy to go away.

The boy felt disappointed shoulders and head fell. The second time his mind thought the master did not want him at the dojo, so he left and he felt that had to prove himself. So he busted the door down and wanted to have a showdown with him. The master pointed again and he saw the sign USE THE SIDE ENTRANCE! He felt ashamed when he saw the sign. He was just embarrassed. The End!

Storyboard - Template

Three little pigs

Once upon a time there were three little pigs that noticed a huge wolf wandering in the woods. The three pigs names were Jil, Joel and Adam. They weren’t scared of the wolf because they were pretty big pigs and knew how to do Tae kwon do. The three little pigs asked the wolf if he could play hide and go seek with them. Adam told Wolfy if he could count to 100 while they go away to hide. Wolfy said “yes of course I will”.

As soon as Wolfy was done counting, he started to search for the pigs. He looked in the bushes and in every cottage and hut in the woods. But the three little pigs were nowhere to be found. He was getting frustrated so he started to blow down each of the pigs houses. First he blew down the house made of straw. It was Jil’s house. Then he blew down the house made out of wood which belonged to Joel.

When he arrived at Adam’s brick house he busted the door open and said “come out come out wherever you are”. LIttle did he know that the pigs had organised a surprise party for him and had invited the people from the village to come along. It was too dark for him to see so he turned the light on. When he turned around all the villagers screamed when they saw the wolf and ran off!!

The wolf said “what's for supper”. Then the pigs said “YOU”!. The wolf ran  as fast as he could the pigs had surrounded him. “There is nowhere  you can go” the pigs said. Wolfy started moaning saying “please forgive me for what I have done, I will do anything for you pig’s but PLEASE DON'T EAT ME.”

“Ok the one and only thing I want you to do is to go FAR FAR away from here so we “NEVER SEE YOUR FACE AGAIN” ADAM shouted. Adam did not even finish his sentence and just like that Wolfy got so scared he ran off. A few months passed and we never have seen wolfy again. We all lived happily ever after.

White

The stuffed we learned about is Co-operating with each others. The other thing we learnt is to try and get stuff finished on time.

All black win

Ready and prepared to see the All Blacks (frashed) (Means beat them) France. Beep! it’s Kick-off time, the All blacks booted it all the way to the 22 meter mark. They jumped up to receive the ball but then France caught it on a full. Number 12 running with the ball Bang! he got hit from Conrad Smith.

 Aaron Smith passed it to Shaun Kane running it straight to the gap runaway stepping everyone that comes in his way TRY!!! The Ref agreed.

My Favourite player is Rene Ranger because he can bump people off and they will get really hurt and it is sore. Who is your favourite player in the All blacks???  Well my favourite player is Hosea Gear because he can go through gaps and can get heaps of runaways.

The Score was 23-13 All blacks rule!!!!

Tevita - Week SSw

I lifted up my head I felt a raindrop DING! It splashed on my face. “OH NO! Please don’t rain” I said to myself. It started to rain harder and I just remembered I had left my raincoat at home. I know it was going to rain I should’ve brought my bag with me. I'm gonna be soaking wet. So I sat under the tree waited for the rain to stop. I sat and sat. But the rain won’t stop. I sprinted to the other side of the road then all of sudden I saw my car going past. "WAIT UP WAIT UP!" I shouted to my Mum and Dad. But they kept going and going.

Tevita - Diabetes

Diabetes is a disorder where your pancreas isn't working. Usually the pancreas should make insulin but it needs glucose to make energy. Insulin is like a key to open the body cells so the glucose can be absorbed. Glucose give you energy for body. If you have diabetes its either you the pancreas is not working or it does not make enough insulin. There are 2 types of Diabetes Type 1 and Type 2. Type 1 is where the pancreas is not working because it’s not making enough insulin and Type 2 is when you get it from your family members. Insulin is needed to as a key to open the body cells so the glucose can be absorbed.
