Maths Work Done....

Hi, My Name Is Michael and I have finished my Maths work for this week. I might post a higher groups piece of work. I hope you guys enjoy and PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT...

My Cross Country Experience....

As I awoke feeling a combination of emotions, mainly fear and excitement. “Ohhh no, it’s Cross Country” I yelled with fear. As I walked down the hallway the smell of freshly cooked eggs punched my face. “Ohhh yum” I shockingly said. “Thanks Nana” I said. As I was running to school I could hear the barking of dogs. “Hey” Shaitarn said as I entered the school gates. “Where's Tihi” I said, “I don't know” said Shaitarn.

As Tihi and I were sitting down on the hard court people were drawing motivating things on their arms and legs so I thought it’ll be a great idea to draw on myself too. It was so hot as if someone threw us into a oven on 80 degrees to turn us into rubble. Years 1 & 2 please go to the starting line please. It looked as if they were terrified. On you marks, get set, GO!!! They all took off and the whole school was standing up watching...      

“Get out of the way” I said to Tihi in a stern voice, as I shoved my way to a better spot. “Stop hogging all of the space” I said. As the sun was burning us into rubble and I dug my feet deep into the wet dirt, my heart was racing with excitement and also nervousness. Mr Burt says the starting positions in a slightly stern voice. On your marks, get set, GO!!! I heard everyone's feet slip off the wet slippery mud. Everyone took off like a pack of wild wolfs. I hear everyone huffing and puffing and eventually some of them stop. Me and Tihi started fast walking.



“Oww Oww” I said as I was standing on the sharp sticks. It felt like my feet were bleeding. As I started my pace again Miss Lavakula was encouraging us to run. My feet sunk straight into the mud, it felt very nice, nicer than the sharp thorn like sticks. As me and Tihi ran past Mrs Squires she said some more motivating things. As Tihi and I entered the second lap we were highly exhausted. It felt as if my lungs were going to pop. I could hear the encouragement from all the little kids. As we entered the school gates and we were going to finish me and Mararoa had a bit of a sprint race. And guess what...I WON!!!

Now im starting to feel a little sad because that was the last EVER cross country I will do at Pt England...
As I entered my class room a sense of relif and pride hit me. Finally, im never doing that again...

THE END

Our Muscles

Did you know that you have more than 600 Muscles in your body. If you ask me thats heaps of Muscles. If you're a big body builder or a small baby you still have the same amount of Muscles in your body. Did you know that even when you relax your Muscles are still working. When you move your Muscle your brain sends a message to the particular part you want to move. Have you ever felt that pain in your Muscles after a long day of standing or Exercise. If you're wondering what that pain is called, its called Muscle Fatigue. Do you know the muscles you think are Muscles aren't the only ones.

Did you know that when you sit down or even talk you're using Muscles. Did you know that we have three main Muscles, the smooth Muscle the cardiac muscle and the skeletal muscle. Did you know that the smooth Muscle works even if you're not trying. The smooth Muscle works when you throw up. It pushes up the vomit and your stomach clenches. That's the Smooth muscle but the cardiac Muscle works without you even trying. It’s kind of like the smooth muscle but it has a different working...Did you know that our heart is a muscle, it is called the Myocardium. It is the most relaxed muscle in your body and it pumps blood throughout our body.

The Skeletal muscle is the one you flex with. It doesn't work unless you move or pick up something. The skeletal muscle is supported by another muscle called the flexor. The flexor is under the biceps and when you flex your muscle the flexor supports the biceps...For little kids they don't need to work out and lift waits to be healthy. They have to play outside and eat the right food...

How The Olympics Came To Be.....

The Olympic games started in Greece 776 BC. They started just with little games like the Two hundred meter dash, Shot put, Boxing and just little more. The Olympics were just about religion. They hailed Zeus as their God but it evolved overtime. In our days we don't run naked or hail anyone but there is still some sports we have in our days. But soon enough the Olympics have been closed by Pagan Cult, until it had been revived by Baron Pierre de Coubertin in 1886. When it had been revived there were no Gods or Rulers...

But in that time they did sacrifices to Zeus ( There God ) and they used to sacrifice so many things like Hundreds and Hundreds of Ox ( A Type Of Cow ) and much much more. They used to burn the Ox and the smoke will go in the air. It means that when it goes in the air it’s going to their God Zeus..   

The Youngest Athlete to compete in Olympic History was just 10 years old, his name was Dimitrios Loundras. He received a Bronze Medal in a team event. The Event he competed in was the Relay Race...The Events held in the games were Shot Put, Sprints, Boxing and more. But slowly over time the Events Evolved. In our days the sports we compete in is Sprinting, Shot Put, Discus, High Jump, Long Jump and Much Much More...
As you know or don't know the 2016 Olympic Games is being held in Rio De Janeiro. But sadly there is a virus in Brazil, It is called the Zika Virus. Many Athletes Backed down because it was a risk going to the Olympic Games. The Olympic Games is a BIG Tourist attraction. Brazil and many other countries that have held the Olympics recently have made heaps and heaps of money. How you may ask, well first of all you fly there and that would cost a fortune plus paying for the Olympics and that will cost another fortune. Most of that money would go to the government of Brazil and that's how they make heaps of money...   

I think the Olympics have changed over time for the following reasons...First off it's not good burning and sacrificing Gods creatures. Second, it's rude running naked and weird. So those are the reasons I think the Olympics have changed over time...


The End!!!

Immersion Assembly...

     We Are The Champions:
As you can see our topic this term is WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS...This means a new start for me. As I entered the Immersion Assembly I could feel the artificial air on my skin. Wow, there are so many people here today, I thought everyone would be all home “Pretending” to be sick. So as I sat down a boost of laughter from the little kids and the energy of the music was blaring and that was the thing that I was expecting for the first day of school. “Mr Burt, Mr Burt” all the little kids were yelling. He entered with Kevin kiwi and Mr Jacobson and Mrs Garden were following him pretending to be the Boom operator and the Cameraman. “Kia Ora Pt England” says Mr Burt. As you can see this Terms topic is WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS. So that means that we should leave everything bad behind and really focus on what we really want in the future. So let's get into it, IT’S TEAM ONE!!! There topic was all about how to keep our bodies fit and the food we eat...So Miss George stood up and talked to us about what Team 1 was up too. My highlights were Teams, 4 and 5.


The reason I liked these acts was for numerous things. First of all they were funny, silly and cool. Those were the things I was watching very closely for. First off I’ll tell you what Team 5 did, they did a genre of acts that were in the olympics like Hula Hooping, Chinese Ribbon and Gymnastics. And Team 4 did Family Feud. It was so funny because they said the most dumbest answers ever...They asked what sport involves water and they said, Swimming, Shot Put, Diving and Discus. Can you spot the things that “don't” involve water. If you can't it's Shot put and Discus.

The Assembly was a blast and I can't wait for next Terms Immersion Assembly. But sadly it will be the Year 8’s last !!!EVER!!! Term in Pt England and im going to make it the best Term of my life,

THE END...

The First Olympic Games
