Game terms: the h pass when you are the ninja and you do not want to be the ninja you pass it. there is no double passing eg: the ninja passes it. the person that the ninja passed it to can't pass it again.

How to play/ rules: the teacher picks a person to be the ninja /tager. If you get tagged you have to sit down. You can not talk or you are out. You can't take a step unless the ninja takes a step.

Tui

 The tui

Tui is medium-sized, common, and widespread birds of the forest They look black from a distance, but in good light, tui has a blue, green, and bronze color to them and white throat tufts. They are usually very beautiful, with a mix of tuneful notes interspersed with coughs, grunts, and wheezes. In-flight, their bodies slant with the head higher than the tail, and their noisy whirring flight is interspersed with short glides.

The tui also has a good habit of singing in its surroundings. But they only sing when they have landed in a tree or on the ground.

Under the Mountain- Novel Study

 

For novel study we had to read the book Under the Mountain. Then through the four tasks we had to explain the book and how we did it so Miss Farr actually knew that we read it. At the start I didn't like this book as all I have been reading is my bible and this was very different. At the end I felt good that I was done and proud that I managed to finish it. 

Sportsmanship

 Sportsmanship

Having good sportsmanship is Not swearing, a good attitude, not rolling your eyes at the reff, helping, listening, being a good loser, being a good winner, respecting people, their beliefs, and how they play. There is a lot more that I could say but I’m not. here is some more information

Parents and kids alike love sports, and it's easy to get caught up in a game and become focused on winning. Yet there is much more to be gained from the sports experience than a winning record. When children and teens are involved in sports, they are able to learn and put into practice values that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.

Many athletes and coaches have said the phrase “they showed good sportsmanship” at least once in their lives. But, what exactly does that mean? Is it simply being good at handling defeat? Or does it refer to a more general attitude towards your players, or team, or coach and or opposing team? Parents often want to teach good sportsmanship to their kids as a means to develop positive emotional and social skills so learning more about this topic is vital.

 Did you know that the Ancient Greeks invented the theatre? They loved watching plays, and most cities had a theatre some big enough to hold 15,000 people! Only men and boys were allowed to be actors, and they wore masks, which showed the audience whether their character was happy or sad. Some of the masks had two sides, so the actor could turn them around to change the mood for each scene. 

Who were the greek soldiers

 

 

All the men living in a Greek city-state were expected to fight in the army. In most cases, these weren't full-time soldiers, but men who owned land or businesses who were fighting to defend their property.

 

What weapons and armor did they have?

 

Each Greek warrior had to provide his own armor and weapons. Typically, the wealthier the soldier the better armor and weapons he had. A full set of armor included a shield, a bronze breastplate, a helmet, and greaves that protected the shins. Most soldiers carried a long spear called a doru and a short sword called a xiphos.

 

A full set of armor and weapons could be very heavy and weigh well over 60 pounds. The shield alone could weigh 30 pounds. The shield was considered the most important part of a soldier's armor. It was considered a disgrace to lose your shield in battle. Legend has it that Spartan mothers told their sons to return home from battle "with their shield or on it." By "on it" they meant dead because dead soldiers were often carried on their shields.

 

Hoplites

 

The main Greek soldier was the foot soldier called a "hoplite." Hoplites carried large shields and long spears. The name "hoplite" comes from their shield which they called the "hoplon."

 

the Greek Gods

• Zeus. God of the Sky 

• Hera. Goddess of Marriage, 

• Poseidon. God of the Sea 

• Demeter. Goddess of Agriculture 

• Ares. God of War 

• Athena. Goddess of Wisdom,

• Apollo. ...

• Artemis.

 

 Activity 2

That summer, let's see, I'm still living in the basement, my own private down under, in the little room Grim built for me there. Glued up this cheap paneling, right? It sort of buckles away from the concrete cellar walls, a regular ripple effect, but do I complain about the crummy paneling or the rug that smells like the low tide? I do not. Because I like it in the down under, got the place all to myself and no fear of Gram - sticking her head in the door and saying Maxwell dear, what are you doing?

The reason that Max has to live with his grandparents is because his mom is dead, and his father is in jail.  Now here's the real kicker.  Max's father, Kenny Kane, is in prison for murdering his own wife.  That is horrible, and what is worse is that Max witnessed the murder of his own mother.

Max is a traumatized kid, and he suffers from low self-esteem.  For those two reasons alone, it makes a lot of sense why Max Kane prefers the basement of his grandparent's house to just about anywhere else.  It is his sanctuary and his hiding place.

Water wastage

Water wastage

In the world there is a certain amount of water each little patcall of water is

involved in the water cycle some little bits float out into space but not very

much 75% of the world is water that is a lot but there is a big problem with

the water in the world the water has something in the water that we like to

call water wastage it plots the water and makes the water unhealthy so they

can't drink the water. The solution was to take the water from the sea and d

salt it saw the people had something to drink.
