Waitangi

On Tuesday the year 4's went to Waitangi and did some unplugged and Scratch coding activities.  My favourite was  the unplugged activity where we had to code a counter around a grid to collect cards for points.

Here is a photo of me joining in with the activity.

Speech Writing

We have been learning how to write speeches. I wrote my speech on TV.

How much time do you spend watching tv?  TV is something you watch that
shows movies and programmes, such as the news. I only watch tv for half an
hour a day. I believe too much TV is bad for you and here are my reasons why.

Firstly too much TV is bad for your eyes. Staring at a screen for a long time will
give you sore, dry eyes and if you don’t blink much you could get a headache. If
you spend too much time close to the TV, it might mean you will need glasses.

Secondly some of the programmes are not suitable for children because there is
some violence and inappropriate things like dangerous stunts or tricks. You think
you can do the tricks that they do, but you could hurt yourself.

Finally, TV makes entertaining and interesting stuff so you keep watching and
stops you from going outside to play.  TV is good for entertainment but we need
to remember to get outside to get fresh air and exercise through playing outdoors. 

Yes, TV can be entertaining and you can learn things on certain programs but
don’t watch it too much.
