Wants And Needs

 Hello, My health class has been working on Wants and Needs, we have been told to make a DLO on what the difference is between Wants and Needs, here is what I did.

Te Whare Tapa Wha

 Kia Ora, in my social sciences class for Mental Health Awareness Week, we have been talking about Te Whare Tapa Wha or wellbeing. Here is my work.

Physical wellbeing -  Taha Tinana - it is about your growth, how your body feels, how it moves, and how you take care of it. Some ways to take care of your physical wellbeing is are, eating healthy, exercising and sleeping alot.

mental & emotional wellbeing - Taha Hinengaro - Taha Hinengaro is your mind, heart, thoughts, and feelings, it's about how you feel, communicate, and how you think. When your Taha Hinengaro is strong, you can express your feelings and can reach out for support.

Spiritual wellbeing - Taha Wairua - This is who you are, where you have came from, and where you are going, spiritual wellbeing can be expressed through your beliefs, your tradition, and your values. Taha Wairua provides connections to your tradition, beliefs, whanau, community, and the nature and the sacred, and should go out somewhere that's special to you.

Family Wellbeing - Taha Whanau - it is about spending time with your whanau, doing things with and for them, you could take some photos and keep them as memories, go out on a special dinner as a family, and go on a family vacation.

healthy food

 Kia Ora, today in my health class we were talking about healthy foods and talking about what kinds of food we should eat and how much we should eat, we had a google doc of what we should eat a day, here are my ideas of a healthy lunch.

social science - research

Hello, today I am going to post about what I did in social sciences, we did research about the New Zealand history and disasters, Anne and I did research about the New Zealand disasters.

Heres our work (:

aotearoa history show

hello, today in social sciences we were learning about the New Zealand wars and the treaty of waitangi, but today i am just going to post about the New Zealand wars.

heres my work (:

In 1862 Te Hua became a prophet, and saw a angel saying the Maori shall own the land

British soldiers were sent to guard the land so the Maori cannot get near the land

Some Maori thought that people were spying on them

Someone killed other 7 men

1860 some of the Europeans killed the Maori men

They were doing stuff in peace but they were wrong because someone wants to kill the Maori

The Maori were fighting with other Maori

1865 there was a war, and 3 - 4 hundred Pamarere were sent to the Chatham islands.

When he was in the Chatham islands he got sick

Te Tutu waru made a new religion Ringatu

1868 was a very scary year for the government

He was a military genius

Maori would set up heaps of pas for safety

Te kote was sent to the Chatham islands because they thought he was a spy

Te tutu warere said that he ate human flesh

They launched a midnight raid

Tk wanted revenge so he killed 60 people

Then the British attacked Tk’s pa and killed 120 of Tk's followers, but Tk did not get killed

Tk made apologies to the Maori and the chief

The British compensated the land of the Maori

3,000 people died in the revenge of the British

1872 the wars were finished

The wars broke the Maoris colonisation

In 1863 the land was legally confiscated from the real owner

Today we watched episode 6 part 2 of aotearoa history show about the new zealand wars. What happened was that maori and Europeans had wars. In 1862 Te Hua became a prophet, then he saw an angel saying the Maori shall own the land, then after that Te Hua then started thinking about it and thought that the angel was right. 

Then when the queen had gotten a letter from Grey that had said that the maori had tried to take the land. Then the queen had sent british soldiers down to Auckland so they can guard Auckland from maori getting near it.

health changes

hello, today my hurumanu class learned about diabetes, what we had to do was get any food and discover it, we had to guess ho much sugar was in it and see if it was healthy. we also learned why ingredients are written in there ways. 

I learned that the way ingredients are organised is by how much of the ingredient is in the food. like spaghetti, the top ingredient would be pasta.

what I am posting is my google drawing about what you should really eat.

here is my google drawing.

health - sugar

Hello, Today I am posting about what I did in health. what I did was I was picked to be in a group, the group was khaylanie, Bailey, Evelyn, Anne and Christina. what we had to do was figure out how many teaspoons are in different types of drinks. first we had to guess, then when we found out the answers, we had to use a teaspoon to see the amount of sugar in a bag. here are some photos of our results and our group.

how much sugar are in the drinks

fizzy drinks - 600ml = 16 - 10 tsp

sports drinks - 600ml = 14 tsp

fruit juice - 400ml = 8 tsp

energy drinks - 500ml = 14 tsp

powdered drinks - 500ml = 14 tsp
