For the past 3 weeks or so I have been trying to keep my fitness up by going for runs, Doing weights, having a normal workout routine with and weights and a bit more. I am trying to work out so that when I get back into the sport I will be fully prepared.
Although I am trying to keep fit I am also struggling due to temptation. I cannot keep focused on a healthy diet if I continue eating ice cream, Chips, Chicken nuggets, etc. So for the next couple of weeks, I am going to set myself a challenge...
My challenge for the next couple of weeks is to lose 5 - 10 kg. This will mean that I will be having to make sure that A, I will be keeping to a healthy diet B, I will be exercising daily and C making sure that I keep track.
I would like to finish off with thank you for reading my blogpost and please comment on what you like or didn't. I would also like you to challenge yourself to do 3 physical things outside or inside a week. Thank you and bye.
I am a student at in Uru Mānuka. In 2020 I was a year 9 and in 2021 I will be a year 10. This is a place where I will be able to share my learning with you. Please note....some work won't be edited - just my first drafts, so there may be some surface errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas.

The Lighthouse
Today I watched a short film about a lighthouse and its keeper. After I had watched the video we were given questions. Here is the link to the video.
Has there been a time when you wanted to away from other people? Why did you feel like that?
I like to think of myself as a very calm individual and I do not get angry that many times or ever. I get angry if I keep getting annoyed. Like a cup of water if you keep filling the cup it will eventually overflow. So if someone keeps annoying me my anger will keep building and eventually put me in an unsettling mood. When I get put into this type of anger I want to be isolated from the people around so I can calm down.
Why do people want to be alone? Are they happy?
People want to be alone for a different range of reasons. They may want to be alone because Reflecting, calming down, me time and so much more. They can happy it really depends on their mood or the reason they want to be alone. They could be happy to be alone to just appreciate things or they could be sad by being depressed.
What happened in his past that made him dislike bringing people around? Why does he live alone at the Lighthouse? How does he feel? Create a backstory for the Lighthouse Keeper
It may not seem like it but John (The lighthouse keeper) was once a social person. He enjoyed the people around him. He always thought of it as Him and his daughter against the world. He was like this until his daughter got sick. Her daughter was diagnosed with Humanity Diclosure Syndrome (Made up) this is when she can't be around people. People had been coming and visiting her in the hospital but little did they know that it really is making it worse. But he didn't know about this until it was too late. Once he had found out about this he was angry with everyone and blamed them for his daughter's death. He then isolated himself from everyone. So he permanently moved into the lighthouse to be away from everyone and to forever grieving over his daughter's death.

First P.E for Term 2
Last week we did P.E, we got put into separate groups. We were learning how to get along with others(Not just our friends). We also got the chance to assign different people to different roles. Example, Chloe is the manager. I think that it was a great chance to learn more about others. We were also talking about what makes a good team player?
What makes a good team player? For me personally, I think that it takes great to commit to others by always looking for who is open and always talking. If the person is always talking then the team will be knowing what is happening on the court or field. I need to display the roles of a leader.
What is your role in your team? My role is the captain and the coach. It takes a lot of responsibility because they will occasionally look up to you and may even rely on you. This is the way I like it, I like taking responsibility for my team and helping them when they struggle. In physical matters.
How could you better your team? I think that giving my team some encouragement will definitely help. The reason behind this is so they can feel confident on the court and not get scared easily. What I like to personally do is when they achieve something good I make sure that everyone knows that.
I also think that giving them a chance every once in a while. Lastly is being a role model to them and showing them how it is done. ;)

Making dirty water clean
Aim: To make a filtration plant using household materials.
| Water Filtration Plant |
What is the filtration?
Filtration is separating solids from liquids by adding a medium through which only the liquid can pass.
Examples are:
- Kettle
- Air
- Pool
- Internet
Materials
1.Sand
2.pebbles
3.funnel
4.filter paper
5.cone
6.container
Process - ( use verbs or doing words in each step )
Step 1
Cut the bottle with scissors to make a funnel
Step 2
Put the top half upside down that creates a funnel inside the other half
STEP 3
Fold the filter into quarters so it creates a funnel when opened
STEP 4
Get 1 cup of sand and pour it into the funnel that you have made with the filtered paper
STEP 5
Pour some pebbles on top of the sand filter but make sure it doesn't come out the side and stays in the middle
STEP 6
Pour the dirty into the funnel slowly and it the water is dripping that means that you have done an excellent job
Findings
We failed on our experiment and the water went into the other half really fast which meant that we didn't take our time and rushed it.
Minutes 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Drops per minute: All in one
Watercolor: Brown
Conclusion:
In conclusion, I would like to say that I rushed it and it didn't work out. All the dirty ran straight through and it and made a brownish colour at the other half of the bottle. I think that if we take our time we will be able to accomplish it a high standard. I would like to finish off with this experiment was fun and when I do this again I will take my time.

Food Pyramid
The Food Pyramid.
In drama, we do two different things like drama and Hauora. Hauora is four in one special we have Taha Tinana(Physical Wellbeing), Taha Wairua(Spiritual wellbeing.), Taha Henengaro(Mental and Emotional) and Taha Whanau (Social Wellbeing). These are essential for our own personal wellbeing. On Tuesday we were focusing on Taha Tinana what we put in our body(Food)...
We were doing work on our food pyramid we started off by drawing what we think a food pyramid is. I drew the different thing that we need in our body's. So I divided it into it all into five sections one is Protein and more. So this is my photo. (Don't Judge :)
Picture:
What it's supposed to look like:

The Dream Giver
W.A.L.T rewrite what we have seen
It was the dawn of night when everyone is as quiet as a cat hunting for food. He inhaled (breathing) then exhaled then looked upon the star’s, they are like nothing he has have ever seen before they bloomed in the dark night.
He was doing his normal job, as normal but he was dressed as he came from the dirty streets. He wore a rack as pants and goggles so no one got blind when they looked at him. His hair, wait he has no hair that is what scares me the most. His name was the Dream Giver a.k.a Bob.
He opened the door slightly to make sure no one was awake, they were all sound asleep. He plunged his sack full of eggs on Jake’s bed. There he was dreaming, giving, loving and many more to the children.
While he was relaxing he did not notice that there was a book next to Jake’s bed, so while he was asleep he kicked an egg off the bed and it cracked open on the boogie man (book). Bob’s nemesis a.k.a Boggie he was the nightmare giver. All was lost as they all had nightmare’s.
It was up to Bob to stop them...

W.A.L.T create a model that shares something we have learnt about our mystery
Hi guys welcome back to another blog post. Today I am going to be talking to you about what I have been making for a couple weeks. This term I have been making a creation about what happened to a person named Jesse Marcel. Me and Khush (My partner) were working very hard to finish this and we are still working on but this time people are helping us. Jesse Marcel is a person who discovered a weird piece of metal that could not be broken and my model is about the setting. Our idea was to make a diorama about what happened to Jesse Marcel. I enjoyed creating these models and hope to do more in the future to share with everyone. By the way there are pictures that I would like to show you about my creation that I have been working on.

Nurses
W.A.L.T to read and find the appropriate information I am searching for.
This term we were learning about nurses, nurses are one of the main reasons some of the soldiers are alive. This nurses had to go though hard times because they had to cure really hard things. They didn't have things like antibiotics that can cure a lot of people. The things that they had Dysentery, Pneumonia, If your arm gets cut it might get infected you has to be cut off, Sometimes the men got frost bites because it was very cold in Turkey and if you come back with a really bad frostbite on any part of your body you would have had to get it cut off.
The WW1 and WW2 nurses wern't wearing bright clothes like the ones these days. They had to wear dark green clothes.
