PE at Tamaki College

PE at Tamaki College

Every week once a week on friday all the years 8, and 7 go to Tamaki college. We go to Tamaki college after morning tea to do PE/physical education.We don't get there by bus all of us walk even the teachers, the good thing is that is a little bit of exercise to warm our muscles.And we all got split up in to group of 11 or 12.

Our exercise coaches are year 12 so they would be 16 or older and they are all from Tamaki College. All of us had fun activates, one is walk the plank.That is when you walk along a plank

and you got to get all the team across the plank to the blue mat, and if you step on the ground before all the team is on you have to restart all over again.

There was an exercise that is called the electric fence it was a high jump pole with a small thin mat about 3cm wide my friend throwed my other friend over because he could not make it by his self it was too big he was not as tall as it .

When it is about to go the students from Tamaki college gave all of our team a mars bar.Then we all went to our class teacher and lined up. And we was the way back to school.I was in the front of the line with Miss Paget that is our class teacher. it was a boring walk back to school.

So I was talking to some of my friends then we got back to school and it was 10 mins to the lunch bell went. We just did math whizz.Math whizz is a website that help us with our mathematics. Then it was lunch time the bell went.

At the end I was so so tired to walk back to school in the state that I was in I am so so unfit

for the stuff I do now in the sports I do. it was a fun day at Tamaki College because they had the sports that I like.And we are going this week.

                  

Science with Mr Barks

Every day in class 5 we make our way to go to class 1 with Mr Barks, and we do science.We are learning about dens and mass, but last week we was learning about gas,solids and liquids.We got to 4 ingredients corn syrup,vegetable oil,dish washing liquid, water.We had a 3 shot glasses one with corn syrup one with vegetable oil one with dish washing liquid.

When we put the second heaviest which was dishwashing liquid the dish washing liquid stayed on top of the first heaviest which was corn syrup.Then we add the vegetable oil and that stayed on top of the dish washing liquid.Because it is lighter than the rest, but the dish washing liquid was not the heaviest that is why it floats.The corn syrup has the heaviest molacus.

Sonny Empathy class 5

Empathy is when a person falls down and you help them without hesitation.

'Empathy is the ability to see the world as another person, to share and understand another person’s feelings, needs, concerns and/or emotional state.

Empathy is a term that is often misunderstood. This page attempts to describe 'empathy' and suggest ways that we can become more empathetic towards others. Empathy is perhaps the most advanced of all communication skills.

The term “empathy” is used to describe a wide range of experiences. Emotion researchers generally define empathy as the ability to sense other people’s emotions, coupled with the ability to imagine what someone else might be thinking or feeling.

Contemporary researchers often differentiate between two types of empathy: “Affective empathy” refers to the sensations and feelings we get in response to others’ emotions; this can include mirroring what that person is feeling, or just feeling stressed when we detect another’s fear or anxiety.

“Cognitive empathy,” sometimes called “perspective taking,” refers to our ability to identify and understand other peoples’ emotions. Studies suggest that people with autism spectrum disorders have a hard time empathizing.Empathy seems to have deep roots in our brains and bodies, and in our evolutionary history.

Elementary forms of empathy have been observed in our primate relatives, in dogs, and even in rats. Empathy has been associated with two different pathways in the brain, and scientists have speculated that some aspects of empathy can be traced to mirror neurons, cells in the brain that fire when we observe someone else perform an action in much the same way that they would fire if we performed that action ourselves.

Research has also uncovered evidence of a genetic basis to empathy, though studies suggest that people can enhance (or restrict) their natural empathic abilities.

Having empathy doesn’t necessarily mean we’ll want to help someone in need, though it’s often a vital first step toward compassionate action.
