Unhealthy relationships in school

School

Being bullied and not being able to just do what you want to without being judged.

What is a healthy relationship in school?

Being taken care of and doing what you wanna do without being judged.

What should you do if you have an Unhealthy relationship?

By either talking it through, ending the relationship or saying something like I need to be myself and if you don’t like that we can’t continue on with this relationship.

• Define what a good relationship looks like to you?

• Who is someone that you class has a good relationship with and what are the characteristics that they demonstrate?

A good relationship to me looks like people being happy and enjoying each others company, being kind, nice and not rude. 

Nevaeh is someone in the class I have a good relationship with and her characteristics demonstrate being happy and goofy

Growth Mindset

In wananga this week we were learning about Resilience and having a growth mindset. Having a growth mindset consists of turning negative thoughts into positive thoughts.
For example:

I can't do this > I can't do this yet
                         I can use some strategies to try to figure it out how to do it.
                         I can ask for help

I give up > I can do this
                  I need to try again
                  I can't do this yet!

Chocolate chip banana muffins

Hi,
On Tuesday we made chocolate chip banana muffins. Some groups had to substitute one of the ingredients to something similar, but one group had to stick to the original recipe... my group replaced butter with oil. We made the mixture then put them in the oven for 10-15 minutes. When we took them out of the oven we let them sit for a little bit before we removed them from the tray. They tasted great but I think the bananas could have been mashed up a little more.

The Present Reflection

We watched a video called the present and i’m reflecting on what makes

the boy like the dog 

When the dog got put down on the table in the box the boy didn’t
think much of it because he was focused on his video games. His mum told
him to open the box and find out what was in it. So the boy opened the box to
find out what was in it and he saw the dog. He got really excited and then he
looked down at the dog and saw that he was missing a leg. His feeling went
from happy to disappointed because he didn’t like it. So he then threw the dog
onto the floor and then continued playing his video games. The dog was not
going to give up so he looked around the room and he saw a ball he went
running and get it but he hit his head on the draw it was under. He didn’t let
that stop him so he finally got the ball and took it to the boy. The boy didn’t
want to play with the dog so he just kicked the ball away but the dog went to
get it. He fell over a few times but he got it. Then he took it back to the boy.
The boy saw that the dog was not giving up and then he realized that the dog
was like him but he didn’t care. So he went outside and he started playing with
the dog and then he liked the dog.
