P.E Volleyball
For the past few weeks, my class has been doing volleyball as our class sport. My skills were average in my opinion because I have played volleyball many times. My skills right now are really good because of the training and practising for what we are doing in the. Right now I can jump serve and spike really well which is very useful.
For me, the hardest thing in volleyball is just trying to calculate the airtime for me to spike because sometimes I miss the spike. Volleyball is very fun and everything is what I like about it. Next year I might do P.E for my choices so im not really picky for what i want so i just really want to have fun.

do now week 3
The song we had to listen too was really refreshing for my mood because of the intruments that was imbedded in the song. In such way, the song really reminded me of Little Mermaid. All I could imagine was to feel good and it had a nice vibe and ring to it.

Discorvery Health
In health we were set a task that required us to discover about a topic and I chose depression and all about it. Our success criteria were to have linked answers to the key concepts, have answers all 6 BIG questions in detail,have described strategeus that will imporve outcomes in relation to your chosen issue, and work a well presented and a proud presentation.
Firstly we had, to pick a topic including 6 BIG questions. my was all about depression (below is photo of my 6 BIG questions.) Then once we had our 6 BIG question we had to advice or relate to the question and right it in a presentation. After all the work, we got a shose to do somthing for our creat activity. My whole class chose diffrent activities but I chose to make a poster. I chose to do this becuase it was nice and simple and i dident want my creation to be really detailed even though we had to. We learned that these strageties can help me and you if you listen very closely.
My dicovery slide
6 BIG questions | Who is responsible |
Why… Why is it harmful? | |
What… when and why did this become an issue in nz? | |
Who… Who is responsible…..? | |
How….. How does it affect the brain when…. | |
When….when should you | |
Your choice….what about depression later in life |
It was challenging when i had to catch up to the class when I was behind from the other students in my class. But then i coped with the challenge but calming down and got straight to work. So far in my opinoin I did really good at my work and felt that i achieved somthing. So next time ill focus on not talking all the time to get all my work done.

Do Now week 2
A schooner is a large boat consisting with 2 triangle sails and 2 more larger squared sails. A normal schooners length is less than 313 feet with a weight up to 1,300 pounds. the colors of a schooner dont look bright but with a more simple variety with grey,white,red,or commonly brown. If was to ride on a schooner I would see blue waters with the wind blowing against my face. As that happens, I would be standing in the middle of the boat gazing faintly through the breeze awaiting for my destination.
