Athletics refection

 Technology really helped me research the technologies and skills that I lacked and needed to improve on. This affected participation as it was very easy to access information from Google and YouTube. I have discovered many techniques for all the different activities  I have trained. This allowed me to strive to be autonomous and natural, and perhaps perfect each skill in those sports. This is some proof of my reflection that states that I researched and found it very easy and helpful to do. I'm looking for a guide on how to perfect the hang or glide technique from an Olympic champion in long jump. I'm going to try my best to get the launch off timing right which will make the hang/glide much easier to do and not give up until I get it down.

Level 1 P.E reflection

Today I would give myself  a  5/5 for effort and participation in this training because we worked with a partner from different classes and we both had turns demonstrating confidence and leadership while we taught each other a skill which we used in a mini 5v5 against our other classmates.

      

The team I am in is called: The bot squad, I don't know we haven't decided.

I’m proud that I improved In the leadership role as my teaching was easy to learn and I felt confident while doing so and my partner was engaging with my teaching with 100% enthusiasm and effort. I also improved on the skills required to have a proper game of renegade hockey.

 

Something I found challenging was actually nothing. I thought having four different classes in the one would be a bit difficult because we wouldn’t get along or something but it actually went real smooth and we all got along but I hope we can get closer and work as one.

Something I really enjoyed was learning the skills again because I was in need of a revision and pairing up with people I usually don't pair up with was pretty cool because we got to know each other in that little time we had.

 

Managing the environment

 Resources

-My understanding of the environment is for example a water dam is defined as a barrier or structure across a stream, river or waterway to confine and then control the flow of water. “adaptive management” to maximise the benefits of a dam, while paying attention to and minimising environmental impacts over time. This can be done, for example, by using turbines that are more efficient or fish friendly, or by lowering the height of dams.

Environment 

-My understanding of the environment provides us and the wildlife with a home. Like squirrels in trees and bears in caves. To use environment in a sentence it’ll be“the environment has changed because of global warming”.

Sustainability 

-My understanding of sustainability is meeting our own needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. In addition to natural resources, we also need social resources.

Genetic disorder

Albinism

Kore ngarahu

Explanation of the genetic disorder

 The Albinism Disorder is a genetic disease that has a group of inherited disorders where there is little or no production of the pigment melanin. The type and amount of melanin your body produces determines the colour of your skin, hair and eyes. Melanin also plays a role in the development of optic nerves, so people with albinism have vision problems. Signs of albinism are usually apparent in a person's skin, hair and eye colour, but sometimes differences are slight. People with albinism are also sensitive to the effects of the sun, so they're at increased risk of developing skin cancer.

Who does it affect? 

One person in 17,000 has some type of albinism. Albinism affects people from all races. Most children with albinism are born to parents who have normal hair and eye color for their ethnic backgrounds. The condition affects people in many ethnic groups and geographical regions. Types 1 and 2 are the most common forms of this condition; types 3 and 4 are less common. Type 2 occurs more frequently in African Americans, some Native American groups, and people from sub-Saharan Africa.

Leadership and Government blog

This Topic is based around government and democracy and how they benefit our community.

What is your understanding of Leadership and government?

Leadership is demonstrated when someone steps up and takes the role of leading many people to a successful and healthy future. My understanding of democracy is that politics and government is involved and that voting is every 3 years and everyone has a say in parliament and my understanding of government is that there are many types of government that are willing to lead but it's the personality and how they lead is what’s important. All these concepts are needed for someone in government that wants to take the role and responsibility of a party leader or prime minister.

Science Fair

We have been searching for a science fair project for about four weeks and we have decided to find out ( which days produces the most sunlight compared to the daylight hours of the region. We are using the school solar panels to find the specific statistics of daylight and compare those to the regional analyses that have been recorded.
