no i in team

In p.e, we have done many sports we have done Tapu- ae, Dodgeball, crash pad cricket, multi-sport and bench ball the teachers put some questions on the board here they are.

Challenges?  what skills did we use?

The skills I used were Teamwork and getting my team back in the game by throwing the ball. Teamwork is probably the most important thing.

INTRODUCTION

for the past 8 weeks, we have researched about an issue my issue is why do people do drugs in MMA and for the issues, we could do a game, app or a Narrative.

DLO





REFLECTION

I enjoyed working as a team and using teamwork and communicating with each other and I enjoyed learning new things.


Question

would you  make people stop using frugs in MMA?

weather


hey guys today we have been learning what different types of weathers there are here are some of the weathers that we have been learning about anemometer, Beaufort wind scale, typhoon, monsoon these are some of the weathers that can destroy countries





  1. anemometer? instrument for measuring the speed of the wind, or of any current of gas.
  2. Beaufort wind scale? The Beaufort scale is a scale for measuring wind speeds. It is based on observation rather than accurate measurement. It is the most widely used system to measure wind speed today. The scale was developed in 1805 by Francis Beaufort, an officer of the Royal Navy and first officially used by HMS Beagle.
  3. Typhoon? a tropical storm in the region of the Indian or western Pacific oceans.
  4. Monsoon? a seasonal prevailing wind in the region of South and SE Asia, blowing from the south-west between May and September and bringing rain the wet monsoon, or from the north-east between October and April the dry monsoon.
  5. what is it when the weather is really nice and turns into hail? Hail is a form of precipitation that falls from the sky as pellets of ice. ... The formation of hail means a severe thunderstorm is likely in your vicinity. You should monitor your weather situation closely for thunder, lightning, torrential rain, and possibly even tornadoes

MATERIALS

  1. sellotape 
  2.   pencil
  3.   pin
  4.   2x sticks
  5.   4x cups
  6.                                                     1x sticky note

On the filed there were 80 spins per minute and the wind speed was 13-20 kph and the Beaufort scale was 3.

At the old j block there were 60 spine per minute the wind speed was 12-14 kph and the the Beaufort scale was 2.

On the grass hill there were 40 spins per minute and the wind speed was 6-12 and the Beaufort scale was 2.

At the tennis court gate there were 12 spins per minute and the wind speed was 2-5 kph and the the Beaufort scale was 1.
