Kiwi sport- Touch rugby

We learned about touch rugby skills.

First we practised catching the ball. We threw the ball above our head and catch it well walking foward and backwards.

Second we practised passing ball. We pass the ball back and fourth to our partners without dropping the ball.

Lastly we played a game. The goal was to try to put a rugby ball inside of the hula hoops when the whistle blows but we cant move the with the ball so our partner has to run to the hoop. Then I pass to him so he can put the ball down.

I enjoyed learning about touch rugby.

Reading -

LI: to skim and scan.

For reading we learned about skim and scan.

Skimming is reading topic sentences to get a basic idea of a book or text and scanning is looking for keywords to find information you need.

We were skimming and scanning on this book called meet the kakapo.

We had to find the three main key words then pick one to do a definition on. After we had to attributed an image for our key words.

Then we got 4 facts for the main topic. My facts talks about what there favourite food and what type of bird is it.

Inquiry

 For inquiry we were learning about how precise and consistent the experiment is.

The experiment was how much the material was going to absorb.

First we had to get in groups of three then we had to pick what material then we had to see how much ML we were going to put in our container. We had to use 100ml of water and grab a tote tray. 

Second we had to pick how many drops of food coloring we were going to put in we had to 5 drops of food coloring in our 100ml, then we stirred it.

Next we measure 50g of sand using a scale.

After this we poured the 100ml of water over the sand and waited for the sand to absorb the water. We tipped the remaining water out and measured what was not absorbed by the sand.

I enjoyed doing expeirments and learing about new things.
