P.E - Social Responsibility

For today's lesson of P.E we played moon ball and bench dodge-ball. We split into two team, yellow & green, and played game after game. As we played we had to think about what level of social responsibility we were in. Social responsibility is your attitude & values in making good/responsible choices. This also leads to your behavior toward your learning (physical and health education) and outside your learning. My partner (Lani) and I felt that we were more based on level two then level 1 or 0. Although we started off a bit negative with our choice of words we managed to move up and pass that and fall into level 2, the involvement level. We both feel like that we could improve our skills to level five by working our way up. We can start by working on the level three ("Self-Responsibility"). We can start from makes good choices cause we feel that we show respect to the people in our class and work our way down the list. Although we already filled most of the stages in level three we will focus more on the ones we don't.

Sharing my learning in year 10 science

For the past few weeks we have been learning a lot in science. Like the nutrients and their functions and even reflected about our environment that is wrapped around us everyday. For my environment I did:
1. People/Family/Friends
2. Physical Spaces
3. Church (Mormon)
4. Sports
5. School
6. Art (Sketch)
These were the things that I am surrounded by everyday and that had an effect on me, they are also my values. These six important things that I value are apart of my environment.

1. People/Family/Friends
I see my family everyday, I am surrounded by them out and inside of school.

2. Physical Spaces
I go to the park on Saturday's wit my family. It's my way of distracting myself from the WiFi and spending more time with my family.

3. Church (Mormon)
I go to church on Sunday's, it has an effect on me because as a Mormon their are certain things that we can and can't do, but it is completely our choice. It's like a test everyday.

4. Sports
I play sports at school (P.E & Brake Times). It's my way of keeping active and distracting myself from the games online and being lazy.

5. School
My learning takes part at school in the classrooms from Monday to Friday. It has an effect on me because I go to school to learn and expand my knowledge.

6. Art (Sketch)
Art is important to me because it's an amazing gift to me and it's my way of keeping the family tradition alive.

The class and I also learnt about the six nutrients. Our teacher (Ms Wells) set a slide with questions and gave us the decision to pick one out of the six nutrients. We were put into groups of two or three, There was only two of us in my group (Whitney & I). She gave us about 30 minutes to complete the slides with the questions so that we could present it in front of the class. My group took the topic of unsaturated fats and oils. We completed the slides, but some of our data was incorrect. We found that doing this in groups was easier than doing the work separately. My partner and I enjoyed it and found it interesting because we found out things we never knew before. I hope to do this again and next I would like to learn more about the six nutrients.

Metal Works Techknology

For the past few weeks of metal works technology our class had a choice to do either a pizza cutter or cake server. I chose a cake cutter because it could be useful in my house. This took me a bit of time to make it, but I finally finished it on time and now I get to take it home. This was an amazing experience and I enjoyed every bit of it. I am happy of the outcome and glad to take it home. I found this easy to do because I got help from my teacher, Mr Naicker.
