Kowhaiwhai Template

 

For the SLJ we had to make a Kowhaiwhai Template this is shown in the inside of a marae if you look up usually, in this case, it would have gone on in a pattern. The most challenging thing about this is to make a pattern that I thought looked good this reminds me that people are helping the plants grow because the pattern on the right and on the left look more like people with no heads you could say and that's what I think.

Rugby

 Rugby was invented in 1823 by Willam Webb Ellis in England 


In rugby, there are 2 40 minute halves and the whole game goes for 80 minutes. In rugby, there are 2 teams of 15 players aside on the field plus subs.



Positions 

Your number 1 is you loose head prop he is on the left side of the scrum at the front, number 2 is your hooker is in the front of the scrum in the middle when the half back puts the ball in he is the one that hooks it back and he throws the ball in at the line outs, number 3 is you tighthead prop he is on the right side of the scrum, number 4 is your left side lock and 5 is your right they are the ones that hook the ball back after the hooker dose, 6 is your blind side flanker and 7 is your open side they are on the side of the scrum and the ones that tackle the number 8 off the scrum usually, number 8 number is your number 8 he is the one that is at the back of the scrums and he sometimes will run with the ball off the scrums, number 9 is your half back he is the one that plays the ball in into the scrum and he is also the one that will set up for the ball to go out wide that is your scrum set up\ forward pack. In the backs your number 10 is your 1st 5, number 11 is your left-wing, number 12 is your 2nd 5, 13 is your centre, 14 is your right-wing and 15 is your fullback. 



Equipment 

Boots with sprigs 

Mouthguard 

Headgear 

Drink bottle 



How to play 


Rucks, the ruck is where one of your teammates have been tackled, You need to protect the ball so you need to either stand over the ball or wait to push the other person away from the ball.


Scrums, in the scrums you need to wait for the ref to call crouch bind set, and then you have to wait until the ball, is placed in the side of the scrum and then you can start pushing for the ball and when the ball comes out the back your number 8 or half-back will take it.


Tackling, when you are tackling you don't wanna go over the chest otherwise it is ahead high and that is a penalty you don't wanna tackle front on you wanna tackle them with your head to the side otherwise you will probably get kneed in the face and maybe concussed. 


Kicking, when kicking you wanna be accurate then you can work on putting it up high and when you are stuck down your side of the field you wanna get it out so there is a line out so you can have a better chance of getting a try, field goals for a field goal you usually do these in golden point or you do it to put up your points. 


At school we have to make a list of how to playa sport we needeed to explain how to play, equipment, and postions so people know what they do if they play

Joseph Stalin

 For the past 6 weeks, we have picked a topic for inquiry I have chosen Joseph Stalin other people have picked a different topic I have picked Joseph Stalin I find this topic interesting because it relates to many different topics. 



Introduction 

This is my inquiry of Joseph Stalin’s early life How he came to power and what basically happened during his life I hope you learn something and this makes some people interested in the subject.

Joseph Stalin led the soviet union to kill 20 million people in WW2(World War 2). Joseph Stalin was the dictator of the soviet socialist republics between 1878 to 1953. Under Stalin, the soviet union went for a pleasant society into Stalin’s army.

Hitler and Stalin signed a truce basically but that broke apart in June of 1941 because Hitler attacked the soviet union but he underestimated Stalin. To solidate his power his snipers shot kids going to fill up the german soldiers canteens. He was the most feared man in Russia he led the soviet union to victory against Germany. 

Stalin’s real name is Josef Vissarionovich Djugashvili he was born on the December 18th 1878, December 6th, 1878, according to the Old Style Julian calendar (although he later invented a new birth date for himself. As a boy, Stalin was poor and bet by his father

” I believe that is why Stalin grew up so angry and wanted power”.

Stalin’s father was a shoemaker also he was an alcoholic. 

“which would be one of the many reasons that he was bet"

His mother was a laundress. As a boy, Stalin contracted smallbox, this is what left stalin with a longlife of facial scars. As a teen, he earned a scholarship to attend a seminary in the nearby city of Tblisi and study for the priesthood in the Georgian Orthodox Church. 


After growing up in Georgia, Stalin became a political activist, conducting discreet activities for the Bolshevik Party for twelve years before the Russian Revolution in 1917. Following the October Revolution, Stalin took military positions in the Russian Civil War and the Polish-Soviet War. Stalin was one of the Bolsheviks' chief operatives in the Caucasus and grew close to leader Vladimir Lenin, who saw him as a tough character, and a loyal follower capable of getting things done behind the scenes. Stalin played a decisive role in engineering the 1921 Red Army invasion of Georgia, adopting a hardline approach to opposition. Stalin's connections helped him to gain influential positions behind the scenes in the Soviet-Russian government.

I wonder if our creek if healthy

I wonder if our creek is healthy 



My Hypothesis is that the creek is clean because I have been there before.

The Procedure we all did 4 activities but our group did 3 so we could try different ways to test if the creek was clean because that's our goal 

Our Equipment The activities my group did were water flow which we used a stopwatch and an orange so we dropped the orange into the water and timed to see how long it takes for it to get to the end and we had to do that 3 times to get even results. Water temperature for water temperature we had a thermometer, a meter ruler, a container, a pen or pencil, and a stopwatch. For this one you needed to scoop water with the container then you put the thermometer in the water for one minute then you write down your total we did that 4 times at each marker we measured to see how deep it was at the place you got the water. Gravel vs Sediment for one we had a Gravelometer, a sieve, a scoop, a container, and a sharpie. This one we didn't really do because we didn't understand but you had to sediment into 2 different groups then you measure on a tally chart the amount of stuff then you see the percent. 

The conclusion We found out that our creek is an average creek.

Past letter to myself

Dear past Harlem


Hello is future Harlem after lockdown we have to go to school again it’s kinda sad but kinda fun at the same time. Right now we are in level 2 which is good because I can go to my friends and my family’s houses. Our new school rules are that we have to sanitize our hands and take our shoes. During lockdown, I didn’t do that much with my family just a lot of walks. For learning in lockdown it was great because it was super quiet and it was easier. In lockdown, I was with dad and mum I was a lot of switching. For lockdown, I found out about level 4 and 3 really on the days it was sad.


Signed by present Harlem

Anzac Poem

Kia ora everyone we in whenua have been learning about the ANZACS the Australian New Zealand army corps and I have written a Poem about them so here it is...

Boom as the tank fired louder than anyone had ever heard.
Young men terrified of what was out there.
Massive trenches cover the ground filled with soldiers preparing for battle. 
Bullets flying everywhere.
Poppies growing over everything.
The war had ended.

By Harlem
