L.I to understand the legal use of images
We learnt about legal and illegal images. A legal image is when the owner gives you right to use their image. An illegal image is when the owner doesn't allow you to use their image. To find legal images you can go to sites like pixabay or look at their licencing. To find illegal images you can go to sites like flickr. To recognize a legal image look at the licencing, if it says Cco the you know that it is a legal to use image. If the licencing says all rights reserved, that means that it is an illegal image and you can't use it.
I am a Year 8 student at Panmure Bridge School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Learning Space 2 and my teachers are Mrs Anderson and Mrs Fisi'iahi.

Kiwi Sport
L.I to learn the basic grip on a tennis racket
This term our Kiwi Sport is tennis and our coach's name is coach Peter. For our first session we were learning the basic grip on a tennis racket. First we started by doing warm up, we had to put our hand palm side down and and our partner would drop the ball then we had to flip our hands over and try to catch the ball.
After that we learnt about forehand and backhand technique, first we put our dominant hand on the bottom of the tennis ratchet and our non dominant had on the top. Then that we learnt how to hit the ball, there were two ways we learnt. The first technique was using two hands (the dominant hand on the bottom of the tennis ratchet and our non dominant had on the top) we hit the ball aiming for the cones. For the second way as we were going to hit the ball, we had to let go of our hand at the top and hit.

Reading
L. I to build knowledge on vocabulary, and how it links to the wider world
We did two tasks. The first task we did was take one world and build our understanding on it, we had to write down the functions, associations, similarities&differences and multiple meanings. For the second task, we took a line from one rap lyric or poetic voice and make a quiz. In the quiz we had to choose one of the two choices. Here is one of the lines that we put in our quiz, No matter how hard it gets, Stick your chest out, Keep your head up and handle it.
Maths
L.I to revise your maths skills
We revised our math knowledge doing a quiz on our math books. The things we did were adding and subtracting time, decimals, multiplication (times tables), division (grouping/sharing), calculating area and perimeter, fractions (identifying fraction, fractions of sets) Some of the strategies we used were basic facts, tidy numbers, place value, repeated addition, rounding& compensating, written algorithm and reversing. Reversing is for example when you take a subtraction problem like 35-23=? and turn it in to an addition problem like 23+? =35 which is 12.
