Myths, Legends and Fairy Tales

LI: For reading we were learning about myths,legends and fairy tales and what they have in common as well as the differences between them.  I used a three circled venn diagram to tell the different things between them and what they are. I also used the three circled venn diagram to tell the similarity between them. I learned that they all can include history and include something fake. A fairy tale is a made up story with elements of fantastic function and includes a lesson. A Legend is something that tells the history of a famous creature, animal,person or event and how it worked. A myth is something that can confuse people, but also tells history about global and out of this world information.

Kiwi Sport Swimming

Today, we did our first kiwi sport lesson for term three. The kiwi sport lesson was how to swim at the YMCA lagoon pools near panmure . Cameron and James were the instructors for today's session. Cameron taught in the shallow end and James taught in the deep end.

In swimming we got taught the straight kick. We had to hold out arms in and kick with our head facing down.We needed to reach the other platform without struggling as much as we could.Next we did the back stroke. The back stroke is when we had to keep our hands to our sides without using them, and we kicked with our feet above the water and our stomach out of the water. Then we played a game called 'ring race'. James threw two rings into the water and waited until they sank. Then James picked two competitors to dive under the water to grab the rings and swim to the next platform.

After the 'ring race' we got given a board to practice our kicks.We held onto our boards and put our heads in the water. We kicked under the water at medium speed.we used the board to  practice our kicking.For the final lesson we used our boards again for freestyle swimming. James then picked somebody to swim to the next platform doing a freestyle on their board. We didn't have enough time for everybody to have a go so we went back to school.

Kelsey then knocks down Chloe’s Dice on the ground and Chloe shouts to Kelsey back “ I didn't do anything! Why did you knock my dice down!”. ‘ Because you knocked my dice down! “ Kelsey kept arguing with Chloe. Events They start to argue with each other. The teachers separate them. Kelsey couldn’t blow the last cup because it wasn’t on the edge of the table. Chloe got bored waiting for Kelsey to blow out the final cup down.`

 Chloe and Kelsey then start to argue with each other over a game. The teachers then separated the two from each other. The next game was this blows, It was Chloe’s turn and she blew all her cups down except for the last cup. Kelsey got really impatient to wait for Chloe, so Kelsey walks over and knocks down Chloe’s last cup “Hey!! What was that for?!” Said Chloe. “You were being so slow so I knocked it over!”. Said Kelsey. Chloe got mad at her and then it was Kelsey’s turn, Kelsey was finished blowing down 5 cups but then Chloe came over and bumps the table on purpose and all the cups go flying across the hall”CHLOE!! Why Did you do that to me!” Exclaimed Kelsey “Because you knocked my Cup Down!” Exclaimed Chloe. Solution Kelsey said sorry to Chloe for scaring her and making her bump onto the table. Chloe also said sorry to Kelsey.
