Teaching My teacher a new skill - Confidence Care award

For my Confidence Care award task I taught Mr Ashurst a new card trick. For the trick he had to pick a card and to find his card I had to make four piles. Then I had to look at the last card of the last pile and see what card it is. If it was the 10 of hearts I have to remember that. Then Mr Ashurst had to put his card on top of one pile. When he did that, I picked up the last pile and put it on the pile he put his card on. After that I had to go through the cards and find the card. Then when I saw the 10 of hearts I knew the next card would be his card.

Te Oro - Performance

Today we went to Te Oro to perform our act and share our learning about Te Taio O Tamaki. All of the manaiakalani schools came to share. I found what they shared really cool and I liked how they were creative with there designs. Our schools performance was awesome. I enjoyed watching it because I learnt why we need to keep the area clean and if we don't it would get polluted. Every school had a different location where they shared their learning.
