Day And Night

Our theme is 'Outta This world' and we have been searching and studying many things. This is a presentation of how day and night occurs.

Me Myself And I.............

Today I am going to tell you what I like to do what I enjoy and don't enjoy, First will be Food and Drink, second my hobbies, and last will be T.V and music. So I hope you really enjoy reading about this.

First of all Food and Drink,
The food that I love eating is butter chicken, , Coco Rice and Burger King.
But the food that I disagree eating/drinking is Sprouts, blackberry’s, peanuts and coffee.

Now for my Hobbies. I enjoy playing rugby league,rugby union, looking after my pet dog, playing on my computer and going to trainings everyday. Sometimes I even collect rugby league cards.
I have a bike but I don’t really ride on it.

And last of all T.V and Music. My favourite T.V programs are ‘Man vs Wild and Fear factor, I sometimes watch Disney channel and I always watch Sports Channel when there is a rugby league game on, but for the T.V program, that I think that hate is Adventure time, . For music or music groups it would be LMFAO and Mohombi. I don’t listen to old fashion music like my mum and dad.

Hope you enjoyed

Quick 10 Questions

“Weeeeeelcome everbody to our show, ‘ Quick 10 Questions’!” I shouted.

The crowds were cheering and clapping. I began to introduce my contestant, “Theodore
where are you from and what do you do for living?” I asked.

He replied, “I’m from America, I have been playing sports and now I am looking for a job.”

I asked him, “Shall we start?”

“Lets shall, lets shall”, Theodore answered.

“What is the capital city of France?” I requested.

“Paris!” Theodore shouted. “

Correct!” I replied . I moved onto the next question “What continent is France situated on?” Theodore stopped and thought for a moment then replied, “Europe.”

“Correct!” I replied once again. “Theodore, your third question is … What is a major celebration held in France?”

“Bastille Day?” answered Theodore quizzically.

“YESS my friend, next question, ‘Name two neighbouring countries for France?’ I questioned

“Belgium and Switzerland,” He Respond.

“That's the answer”, I quoted, “your fifth question is..... What is the French rugby team’s jersey colour when they play in their main playing stripe?”


He knew the answer straight away and replied “Blue and....Black” Theodore excitedly answered.

“that’s correct! your sixth question is.... what is a local delicacy in France?” I asked

“Escargot!” quickly shouted Theodore

“Woah that was a quick one..... anyways your next question, name a famous french person?” I asked

Theodore was stuck and was thinking hard, and finally he answered..... “Napoleon Bonaparte”.

“ Brilliant! seventh question. Who is the key player in the French rugby team?”

“Dimitri Yachvili,” Theodore humbly answered.

“Excellent. Question eight, In which year did the French Revolution year start?” I asked

“Ummmmm. Oh that’s right 1987?” Theodore answered.

“ Spectacular! So I questioned him again, “What attraction, landmark in Paris has been visited by the most (people)?”

“ The Eiffel Tower” Theodore positively answered

“Cooooorrrrreeeect! My friend, just one more question then you win. Your final question I paused for moment and asked “Has France ever won the Rugby World Cup?”

“NO!” replied Theodore.

“Is that your final answer?” I asked

‘’Yes it is‘’ said Theodore nervously.

‘’Guess your right cause you have just won,” I said excitedly.

Where In The World.....?

The Brumbies were given a number of names of rugby-playing nations of the world. These were some of the nations that are recognised by the world governing body of Rugby Union, the International Rugby Board (IRB), as member unions but did not qualify for RWC 2011. We divided them up amongst our team. I was given the nations listed below:

Hong Kong, Cayman Island and Chile. This is what I found -

1. Chile

2. The Continent for Chile is South America.

3. The Capital city for Chile is Santiago.

4. Estimated total population in early 2011: 17,000,000. Two thirds of the population is concentrated in the central zone.

5. The Sports Chile Plays

1. Hong Kong

This is where hong Kong Is Located In.

3. The Capital City of Hong Kong is Victoria.

4. The population of Hong Kong is 7,122,508 (July 2011 est.)

5. Hong Kongs National sports.

1.Cayman

2. This is where cayman island is located in.

3. The Capital City of Cayman Island Is George Town.

4.the population of Cayman Island is 51,384 (July 2011 est.)

5.Residents of the Cayman Islands keep active! Some of the most popular competition sports are soccer, cricket, basketball, sailing, rugby, tennis, floor hockey and squash.

I have been learing about the rugby world cup and about the countries that are entering the compition


I have decided to study Chile for our Immersion task.

Where The Heck Is Onehunga?

Different Auckland town centres have adopted Rugby teams from countries that

qualified for the World Cup.

I found out information about :

The location in Auckland;

Something special about this place;

A 'potted' history of the place;

If it has it's own symbol of some sort.

(If we couldn't find a symbol we chose a picture that told more about the place).

Onehunga is in the south east of Auckland city. It is 8kms from the city centre.

Jellicoe Park, a short walk from the town centre, is a good place to start and a truly unique drawcard. There are museums, an historic home, swimming pools and wonderful gardens to enjoy. And then there's the beautiful Manakau Harbour to enjoy, right on Onehunga's doorstep.

From its earliest beginnings Onehunga, one of the oldest settlements in the region, has occupied a special place in Auckland's history.

KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE BALL

We are using the nations of the 2011 Rugby World Cup as our inquiry path.

For this unit we are in one of four teams: Brumbies, Force, Rebels, Stormers. My team is Brumbies
There will be a number of tasks for us to navigate to achieve our goal of an excellent result in this unit. There are a mixture of individual and team tasks to be completed. The main task that will show our learning in this unit will be a Hyperstudio presentation about one of the countries in the World Cup competition.

I'm excited for the Rugby World Cup to see who my team, Samoa, is going to compete with.
