Swimming- Rookie

Hamiltion Water Palace is where I do my swimming lessons. They do not put you in  to levels , there are special names. Rookie means learning how to be a lifeguard. So far I know how to do the two proper strokes and I am finding it easy. I really enjoy swimming. Some things I know how to do are called the rope, brick, pole, pulling them to the side, how to carry them on your back, how to talk to them , how to put them in to safety position. Being a Rookie is a lot of work but I think it is a good learning experience.

make your own volcanoes

Today we made our volcanos . It was really hard but we did it.

what you need

  • A cup
  • lots of paper
  • mod rock
  • block of cardboard
  • paper tape

 

What you do

  1. Get the paper and crunch it up in to a ball .
  2. Take the paper out of a ball put in a straight line .
  3. Take the paper and tape it to the cup going down the way .
  4. After taping all the paper to the cup you can start putting on all the mod rock.
  5. Now if you have stuck all of the mod rock you can start painting. Try to make it look like a real  Volcano.

Good luck,

Chloe Murray.

Philosodrama

In room 12, primary 6  have been going to the G.P room and we have been doing philosodrama. If you are wondering what philosodrama  is, its a short scene of acting with a couple of people. After you have done your bit of acting you will get to ask questions about the scene. Afterwards the class have a group discussion and you need to agree or disagree with what they said. I have enjoyed philosodrama over the past few weeks.
