Using speech recognition

Today James came to share a tool called speech recognition on a google document . I used this wonderful tool on Mary's blog.

This tool is really useful when a person comes from overseas. It is really fun because you get to talk to your chromebook like it is stupid but it is not stupid it is clever.

Samoan language week

Last Friday we had Samoan language week. All around the world people celebrate their language. It's like a birthday. We had all the Samoan children even the the little kids dance and sing at assembly. It was wonderful.

Next the tane performed a Samoan dance. It's all about getting your body into it and remembering the actions.

After that amazing dance two of our leaders performed they own Samoan haka. This is Presly and Faiupu

After the boys haka the little children had a wonderful song and dance.

All the Samoan boys did a haka. They had two callers. They all shouted and made heaps and heaps of noise That was a  wonderful,amazing and also fun assembly .

Jump rope for heart

Are you tired? I am because just yesterday we had jump rope for heart. I was so happy and nervous at the same time. I was so great to see everybody trying their best and they didn't give up. If you are wondering why we did this well this is why ? Well we did this because we were fundraising for the heart foundation. We were helping those people whos hearts are not working well.

One of the things that we did on Thursday was skipping by yourself. It was very hard to focused on skipping because it was the was the sun it was in your eyes. It was AMAZING that one person had 148 skipping without tripping out. And that person that skipped 148 was Fardosa.

Also the other skipping thing was peer skipping. It was really,really,really hard to do peer skipping because, when ever you skip and then you stop the skipping rope hits you back. IT REALLY HURT!!!!

I remembered that the other fun actives was skipping with the halo hops. I was fun skipping with some other experiment. It was hard and challenge to skip with the halo hips because something when you skip it falls apart. But by the way it was fun.

At the end of the day we were tired but we were proud and happy. Even though it was hot and sunny just try our best!

Tennis Term 2

This term we have been learning to improve our tennis skills. We learnt how to pick up the racket by making a L.

 We learnt how to keep the ball in the sweet spot. The sweet spot is the center of the racket. We have to make use that the ball is in the sweet spot so we can hit the ball in the right direction.

Now we are outside practice  this skill called sandwith and hitting in the right direction. It was very hard to hit the ball in the right direction because of the wind.

This is Ben keeping his ball  in the sweet spot

On the last day we got to have a race with a friend. My one was Mary she was good. We had fun but at the same time it was our last day.

Do you like to play tennis?

Book Tracks

Today I read a book on a website called book tracks. I read the wonderful wizard of oz. To me it was amazing how when I was reading my book they was sound effect. My favourite part in the book was when she had these magic shoes. Here is a link:http://booktrackclassroom.com/#!/. Check it out!:):)
