Danzil peer pressure

I learnt that peer pressure is bad because it makes you want to smash windows. You will want to peer pressure other boys and make them do things they do not want too. 


Positive peer pressure is when you show your PRIDE and make good choices.  






Ryan maths

I learnt how to solve my question in 4's 8's.

This is my strategy 4+4=8+8=16+8=24+4=28 there were 28 dots. First I talked to Danzil and Danzil said 7x4=28 then Mr Savage picked another person to say a strategy. I had Judison as a partner and told him my strategy.

Bailey peer pressure

I learnt what positive and negative peer pressure is.

Positive is when your showing your pride. By not listening when someone tells you to wedgie someone. 

Negative is when your getting force to do something that you don"t want to do.

Some times people get forced to do stuff that they don't want to do.


There are three ways you can stand up to a bully. You can say "cut it out", "stop it" and "back off".







IA's touch tournament

In the IA's there has been touch games at morning tea.

This started at the beginning of the term and is now run by good leaders in the high flyers.

Room 12 has dominated the series.  However there has been a huge improvement from rooms 22 and 11.  The participation from 10, 12, 15 and 15 have been awesome. I like the way they show their PRIDE and their sportsman ship.

week 2 inquiry


The last 2 weeks room 15 have been experimenting with rubbish.   We have made an ocean and decided to put all our rubbish on the ground into it.   

Samani 
What did we do?
We put rubbish in our ocean and it was green, ugly and smelly.
                
What do I think with the pollution in our ocean?
It was disgusting, old and gross .

How did it get like that?
Room 15 left  over  rubbish.  We picked  it up and put it in the water and we saw  it was  green and yellow .


How do I show my PRIDE so it does not happen?
I can show my pride by respect the rubbish and putting  it  in  the recycling bin and  we can  show our integrity by making good with the rubbish.



Roslyn 

What did we do?
Room 15  left rubbish on the ground .


What do I think with the pollution in our ocean?
Disgusting polluted disgraceful.


How did it get like that?
Room 15 put rubbish on the ground and then the rubbish floue in the ocean.


How do I show my PRIDE so it does not happen again?You can put it in the rubbish bin or make  something out of it.




Madison


What did we do?  
First we left the rubbish on the ground. then we picked Mr Savage put it in the ocean.

What do I think with the pollution in our ocean?
It was very gooey and the fish would have died in it.

How did it get like that.
Room 15 put rubbish in the clean ocean and then it turned brown and yellow.

How do I show my PRIDE so it does not happen again?
When you are eating something you can put  it in the bin. You can put the recyclable items into the places.



 Room 15

As a class we discussed and talked about prevention of the water getting polluted.  we also talked about some of the reasons why.

Danzil.....   For our ocean,  We learnt how it gets into our ocean and how it does not.

Agins....  We explored the different items in the water.  We talked about what can be recyclable and what needed to go in the rubbish bin

Anton....  First we found the rubbish on the ground.   Then we picked it up and put it in the rubbish.   



NEXT STEP-  TRY TO USE OUR PRIDE VALUES TO KEEP OUR OCEAN CLEAN AND HOW WE CAN KEEP PLANET EARTH CLEAN

Our pollution inquiry

I dug a hole in the ground and then I dug all the dirt out of the hole.
Then I put some food scraps in the hole to see what happens to them in 8 weeks.  Next I put the dirt and the grass back into the hole.  Tinalya













After finish lunchtime I buried  food scarps into the ground.  It was fun when i put food scarps into the hole.   We buried it at the back of the school.  we buried the food scarps, because we are going to see what happens to the fruit.   First mr Savage dug some dirt up to bury the food scarps, next i dug some more dirt out of the ground so its deep enough to  bury the scarps.  Then I put the food scraps back in the hole.  Next I stood on the dirt to straighten it.   I put some stones on top of it so I don't forget where I buried it. Janaiah



















I dug a hole and I put the plastic rubbish in the hole.   Then we got to grab a chromebook and we went to the staffroom to write this bog.  Eric








I buried the paper rubbish in the ground.  I buried the paper behind the green container in our school.
I put the rubbish in the hole.   We put the dirt back on.  We stood on it to make the grass go flat. Justis
