On the 7th of June something fantastic happened…..

We had a class trip to mission bay! This trip was for are collaborative concept. It was a lot of fun!

Our bus to mission bay was supposed to come at 9.15 but then ended up coming at 10.00! When we the bus finally arrived we all got on excitedly.When got there, there was a big extravaganza because everybody was trying to get off at the same time.When everybody was off we went to the playground for some playtime on the playground I had a lot of fun there but the fun had only just begun.

Next we all pushed though the wind trying to get to the sandy part of the beach.when we got there we all sat down while the teachers explained the rules to the sandcastle competition, then off we went into the sand ( by the time we got to the sand most of us had sand in our eyes) When the sandcastle comp was finished the teachers announced the winners.It was the tanifa group!

They were all called up and got presented medals for amazing collaboration in the sand castle and now you are probably wondering why I said they got a medal for amazing collaboration and not for the best sand castle is because this trip was about learning to collaborate .

Then we did or rotations I did Relays first then I did Beach flags I won a lot of the games but then I got distracted. Last I did soccer It not was not a proper game it was a number type but it too hard for me to explain to you.

Soon after we did the rotations it was time for the WAKA RACE.( Not real wakas just models that we made in class ) Although it wasn’t really a race because nobody took it seriously but no one was expected to take it seriously it was just for fun.

After the Waka race we played on the playground for a  bit that was fun because the mission bay seesaw was enormous a lot of people came one by one to join Me, Maya, Riley, Holly & Amy soon the seesaw was full and mrs parker also came and joined us for a bit.Then it was time to go back to school I had a Fantastic day!             

Pativai's Mission Bay Recount

Mission Bay Trip

On the 7th of June it was a Tuesday morning and it was nice and bright. Hub 8 was going onto a special trip to Mission Bay we were going to build sandcastles and play fun games. We went there because we thought it would be great to collaborate with other people.

First we went onto the bus and off we went to Mission Bay. I got off the bus and then we sat down and ate. After we ate we went to go build our sand castles, we got in our groups and my group was building a waka. We all encouraged everyone to win but my friend’s Aashna’s group won and I was happy for her.

Secondly we got into our guardian groups and went to our guardian teacher and then did our games. I was with Whaea Nin and we were doing relay’s. Our group won but then we moved, onto the next activity and it was called beach flags.

We had to lie on our backs then turn over get up and run, to try and get the batons. There were only five battens but six people so then we played and ran as fast as we could to get them. In my first beach flag race I managed to get one and in my second I managed to get two.

The last rotation was soccer but different. Mrs Parker had to call a number out and then that many people had to run around the outline, of the cones in our first race I was in it and we managed to get an goal in. In my second turn I was goalie then I switched and then they got the goal. Overall the other team won.

We went and ate lunch and after eating we came back into pronounce the people that were being determined and I got the first award. We ran to the playground and started to play on the swings. We played tag then came back in for the boat race. It was exciting although I did not get to bring my boat we cheered on Charlotte’s boat.

We got around the whole fountain and then we watched all the other boats go around it. We got our bags. Faith, Cooper and I did a special thank you to the parents and teachers to thank them for coming and supporting us.

I had a fun time doing all these games and fun activities. I collaborated a lot with my group a although we did not win we felt happy about our sand castle. Having to work with other people was really fun and we ad a lot of encouragement from other teams parents and teachers.

Maya and Charlies collaborative how to make a double waka

This is our procedural text on how to make a double waka.
We learned that in procedural writing your instructions need to be really obvious. You need to write in second or third person and present tense. We found it difficult to write in second person and also our communication in writing this together wasn't always the best.
