Gardening / CIP

This week for CIP we have been fousing on the weeding and the diging. What I did was, I dig dirt up so we could grow some other plants and we also were going to start another role but the it was time to go back to class. We got to pick where we what to go and what we want to do. The area I was doing was pulling out the weeds and diging. I was doing it with Anneleise and Janel. We find some while we were diging and I think the worms when they help to increase the amount of air and water that gets into the soil and they also can't survive in the sun other wise they could dry up and die. 

After we finish weeding, Mr Tisch poured small little seeds into our hand for us to sprinkle it all over the dirt and then we left them sitting there waiting. The seeds we planted was Watermelon, Carrot and Corn.

After all of that, we started to help the others because we had nothing to do. We help by cleaning up all the gardening tools. The period was success for me and I really enjoyed doing Tane Mahuta and I am glad that I pick Tane Mahuta but we will be back into it next Wednesday.

Paniting Rocks/ Tane Mahuta.

This week in Tane Mahuta CIP, We have been trying to clean up the outside classroom in period 2. Anneleise and Janel Iwere pulled the IVY plants and we were stacking them into a pile. Anneleise and Janel was pulling the IVY plant out and I was putting the IVY plants into the piles.

For period 3 we were painting some rocks. We got to pick our own rock and paint our own desgins. My desgin I did was my background blue, putting hearts and making a maoir desgin on it. My Maori Desgin I did was a koru. We were paniting rocks because of our outside classroom and the teacher wanted more colour and desgins in the classroom so it looks pretty. Here is a photo of my rock that I panited by myself. I hope you like it and I hope you enjoyed my blog post.

CIP- Tane Mahuta

In Tane Mahuta we have been trying to make a outside class room and trying to make our garden places tidy. My area I was doing was garden, I was turning the soil over in a row and then we are going to plant some plants.

We got to pick where we what to go and what we want to do. The area I am at is a area that we are trying to turn the soil out and trying to make the garden area more tidy by planting plants. For CIP we do different things on Wednesday but for Tane Mahuta, we are trying to make a outside class room and trying to make the another area tidy.

In week 3 we started moving the tyres that had dirt in them and carried then at the far back of the field. Once we finished doing that ,we started digging all dirt from the tyres into piles and then removed the sheet that were under the dirt. I couldn't remember the another things in week 3 because I went home at period 4.  

This week we were softering the soil to make it softer for the plants. It was a lot of work because we had to do it for a hour and my back was so sore. We find some worms and I think the worms when they help to increase the amount of air and water that gets into the soil and they also can't survive in the sun other wise they could dry up and die. After we lossing the soil, we added fresh soil on top and mixed it until there was no lumps. 

The peirod was over and we had to tidy up our mess that we made. Next Wednesday we are back there and doing it again.

CIP Term Evaluation

Throughout this whole term we have been learning about different passions. Our passions that we have been doing for this whole term are; Wants vs Needs, Mindfulness Colouring Competion, Hornby Eldely Daycare and made a big native bird. My favourite passion we have done was Mindfulness Colouring Competion.
I really enjoy doing CIP but I hope next term we could do something with making something or cooking.
CIP on Wednesday is a really cool thing to do because it's way better than reading, maths and all of those subjects.
What I have participated with is the Mindfulness Colouring Competion. I made a poster about it and what we are doing with the Colouring Competion.
The big native bird I helped to paint it and I help to put the legs on the bird.
The Elderly Daycare I participated by meeting new people and getting to know them. At the Elderly Daycare I met a lovely lady called Dorothy, she is a lovely lady.
Wants vs needs, I just had to make a blog post about what you need to survive and what you want but you can survive without.
My big thing I really want to do next term is COOKING because I love cooking. For cooking I would like to cook for the Elderly people and Hornby familes that are sick.
I really enjoy doing CIP this term and I hope we do something more exicting.

       

Hornby Elderly Daycare

Each Wednesday during CIP, 7 students vist the Hornby Elderly Daycare. We talk with ederly people and get to know them. We had morning tea with them, when I was there I ate cookie and a glass of lime juices. We got to pick who we wanted to talk too, I talk to this lovely lady call Dorothy. Me and Dorothy talk about life and I asked her a couple of question like what's your favoutite colourr? Do you have a husband? What's was you're favourtite thing you liked doing when you were young? It was really great to get to know the elderly people and I hope I can visit it again!
