Hiwi the kiwi writing

Hiwi the kiwi planning: laughing, cheering, learning about fish, We were learning about fish and how we look after them , If you catch a fish that is under 20 centimeters you have to let it grow, if it is too big you have to let it breed.we were also trying to save these nearly extinct animals.


Mark and Chrissy, the founder of hiwi the kiwi, came to our school. They came to show us a cool performance about saving our fish and saving the life cycle of seafood for all to enjoy in the future. Mark and Chrissy came to explain how to save and keep our environment healthy and clean, so all our animals in the sea get to live a healthy life, and also to song  these endangered specie called the black Petril bird which is nearly extinct and that is why hiwi the kiwi came to our school.

Mark and Chrissy the founders had been traveling around New zealand For some people where are life jacket had been visiting schools all around the country. when they came to our school they had started to play a song which was called Pukeko Weko the song was cool but at the same time boring for me but I think other people through that it was amusing to sing and dance too. They also taught us fun facts to learn about fish and how we were able to look after them because they knew all of that from traveling and finding out new facts around our country and also school and inspiring other kids besides us.

When Mark asked us if we knew what was the correct answer of size for a snapper he asked if anyone knew  the answer so my brother Lehi put his hand up and he went on to the stage and had said you need theruler to measure the fish if it is the right size to have

Mark asked if anyone knew why we needed lifejackets and a little girl put her hand up and said we need it because so when we go on to the boat and if we have an accident we will be able to float instead of swim and waste your energy trying to get to land. He also told us a story when these three men that knew how to swim were going super fast and were just zooming all over these lake and had know idea that there was this massive log in front of them and they went flying into the air and there lifejackets were in the front of the boat but they never had enough time to get to so when they fell out of the boat, and the boat had still been going and it went zooming down the lake and the those men were never found because they drowned because they never had their life jackets on.

When mark was finished the story he sang us a song which was called Kai  moana the song was cool I really liked because it was catchy I really liked I would give it a ten out ten. When the song was finished they said goodbye and one of our prefects said thankyou and goodbye to the Hiwi the Kiwi.

Silicon Valley writing

Last term two boys from Tamaki college came to our school their names are Saia and Gabriel they came to our school and were coming to tell us about where they were going they said that they were going to Silicon Valley. Silicon Valley is in America where they were going to meet the founders of the companies like Google, Twitter, Xero, Ideo, Facebook, and other companies as well.

How our muscles work

In our body there is over 600 hundred muscles for our body just to move and to be stable all those 600 hundred muscles in our body are all important, if any of those were to die our body will fail on us and we will have to wait for our body to heal the muscles. We have 600 hundred muscles to 850 muscles in our body and we also have these three types of muscles in our body they are called the skeletal muscles and smooth muscles and cardiac muscles inside your body.

There is the skeletal muscles and cardiac muscles and the smooth muscles they each have a purpose in your body. The first muscles is called the smooth muscles also known as involuntary muscles which means it works by itself and you don’t have to tell it what to do. There is another muscle called the cardiac muscle it is also known as the heart and the myocardium and also pumps blood and relaxes your body.

The last muscle is called skeletal muscle also known as the voluntary muscles unlike the involuntary muscle the voluntary muscle works when you want it to work so like when you move your hand you could see your muscles when you tense your arm and that is what skeletal muscle is and is also attached to your bones and by tendons.
  

Your muscle just don’t move by themselves your brain sends these brain waves through your body and the brain is also known as the cerebral motor cortex and the cerebellum. The cerebellum helps the cerebral motor cortex to send brain waves which are also electrical pulse in your body to move your muscles. But there is another the brain can’t just do it by itself there is a muscle extensor and flexors they are also known as biceps the bicep helps to contract the muscle and to relax the muscle and there is also another name for the extensors which are called triceps also contracts and relaxes the muscles.

Writing:
The first sport they played was called sprints at that time they kept on evolving and making new sports so when only sprints had been invented they made new games to play. They are called wrestling, boxing, and chariot racing and also foot running and also javelin and discus and other many sports. Back in the BC they also played other games in the Colosseum in Greek back in the BC.


Back in the BC they always made sacrifices which meant not enough time with families, and always practising for the Olympics and trying to get fame for winning a competition and are trying to win a crown which is made out of leaves for the winner of the competition.The Olympic is a religious competition for the Greek in Olympia.

In the future there are new sports there are many sports to be played in the Olympics the new sports for the future. There is Fencing, Volleyball, Shooting, Archery, swimming, cycling, 7 rugby, soccer, weight lifting, high jumps, and also pole vault, Kayaking, sailing, and also Canoeing, BMX riding, Dirt biking, and Gymnastics. I think that is all the sports that I know, but I think that there is a few more sports left and there are still old sports left from the BC when the Olympic was created from the old in day.
