Poems

Bouncing a ball
Always on your feet
Shoot the ball into the hoop
Keep on running back and forth
Everyone has a position
Trying to score
Breaking sweats
All people play
Losing makes your strive for wins
Love for the sport grows.

Haiku
Raindrops
Falling from the sky
Water goes everywhere
Raindrops dry up

Limerick

The man loved wearing red.
But that day he hurt his head.
He would walk from the street .
And then hurt his feet .
Oh he loved his red.

What I Would Want For The Summer Learning Journey

To Emma

What I would Like for the Summer Learning Journey.

For the Summer Learning Journey I would want to get just $50 in cash just to save it or spend on food and Online currency for games : McDonalds, R6credits, Vbucks, Burger King.
This is what I would want for the summer learning journey at the moment.

Passion Project

For Kete my passion project group has been doing a year 7-10 basketball tournament. Before my group had an idea to do a year 5-6 basketball tournament but the options were hard and limited.

What I've learned?
We have learned that a big group is hard to maintain and control by giving the others work. But when the group is controlled the work goes down easily and fluently.

How this will help out learning?
This will help because our learning will be easily faster and we can get more done before the time limit.

What Is Our Next Step?
Our next step is to promote our year 7-8 tournament so we can have a lot of people to enjoy our tournament.

How are you sure this is our next step? 
This is our next step because we need people to enter our tournament so we can have a successful passion project.

What is the evidence you have did that?

S.W.O.T Analysis

We have started to learn about what we are gonna do for our community sports, our group has decided to do sports for fundraising.

Whos in my group

A lot of my friends.

What is a S.W.O.T

S.W.O.T is used to analyse the main points of the idea. It focuses on strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.

• Basketball tournament donates a can of food and gives the can of food to charity.   
• Basketball tournament donates clothes that are to big or small for you.
• Basketball tournament donates money to play the tournament.
• Do a sprint to donate stuff to your favourite charity.

S.W.O.T. Analysis

This S.W.O.T has made a good dent in the work we need/

The Outcome was very good.

Strengths We are donating to the homeless We are doing sports we enjoy Playing along with the community People will get healthy	Weaknesses Easily distracted - Try not to get distracted and commit to our work We don’t do much work  - Do more work We leave work at the last minute -Try to commit to our work and finish it
Opportunities Building the confidence To make a difference Connect with different people Practice your favorite sports Have fun	Threats Dangerous People - Ask a teacher to supervise us Stray dogs - Run or Bad weathers - Check the Weather No equipment - Tell someone to bring the equipment No money- We don't need money.

Acrostic Poems

Writing
For writing we have been learning acrostic poem if u don't know what an acrostic poem is its a downwards poem describing the downwards word.
This is my first try and I will hopefully be doing more

The first word is my name, the second is the colour red, the third is rain and the last is summer.

A Good Sportsman
Runs really fast
On the basketball team
Never tries to start fights

Rising as the best colour
Everyone loves or hates this colour
Dangerous Gang colour

Runny water dripping from the sky
A wet day
Inside is where rain doesn't happen
Never stay outside in the rain

Sunny everyday
Under shade is what where you should be
Make use of sunscreen
Make sure you have ice
Everyone eats ice cream
Rain barely happens

Flying Tips

For learning we had to give out top three flying tips.
My top 3 tips are.
1. Arrive to the Airport early once you get your stuff ready and your waiting for your plane you can rest.
2. Tune in
Listen to music or listen to something that will help relax you bring headphones or earphones unless they are supplied on the plane. But remember turn off your phone when needed to.
3.Read something or talk to someone.
Read a magazine or talk to someone just to kill time who knows maybe the person next to you could be your friend.
Bonus tip
4. Get rest
While your on the plane go to sleep you don't want to be sluggish later.

Hopefully these tips will help you on a long plane ride.
Which tip will you follow the most?
