This weeks reflection
Kia ora today we had to write a reflection on this week here is what i have written.
I showed commitment buy contributing to class conversations, I showed achievement trying my personal best in Maori, I showed respect by listening to the relief teacher when they were talking, I showed resilience by always being where I needed to be and to be on what I needed to be on. Every wednesday for the first two periods we have been doing arts kete there has been stone carving, out door games, cross stitch, music production, performing arts and fence stitching. I am doing cross stitch I would rather do stone carving but it is what it is. In cross stitch we were going to make a picture that we picked but because of covid we are just doing the first letter of our name. When we had a reliever in my opinion I was good because I ended up getting a full carr card. Next week I would like to set a goal to finish all my work.

The Cay ch (12-13)
Today I had to answer questions about chapter 12 and 13 on the cay. here is what the questions are and what i answered them with.
How many days have Phillip and Timothy been on the cay? Phillip and timothy were on the cay for 48 days so far
What does Phillip do to help Timothy when he is sick? Phillip put a wet cloth on Timothy forehead
Explain why Phillip is ready to climb the coconut tree. Because he did not want to let Timothy down
Why do you think Timothy is trying to teach Phillip these survival skills? because he is at an old age and he has been sick before
What do you think Phillip means by his comment, “are you still Black”? because he saw black people as bad ugly people now he sees them as kind helpful caring.
cows eye dissection
yesterday we had to do an eye dissection i was the only person in my group that did the eye dissection because one of the people had to leave right before we started and the other person didn't want to do the dissection. first we had to cut off the fat then we had to try to put pressure on to the eye and get into the eye but we were scared to go into the eye because boys beside us had the humour spray onto them we ended up getting the teacher to get into the eye for us the we had to cut the colour out and then some liquid came out and it also had some black stuff in it. when we got the colour off there was this slimy stuff that looked like snot. i liked when the dissection was over because i was playing with humour i was running it down my hands. i did not know that our eye has that much different stuff inside of it.
