Kiwi sport | Rip pa-Rush | Rip the tags off

This week for kiwi sport Hamish came over to help us with our kiwi sport.
We had to do a warm up game called Rip pa-Rush it was really fun because it is just l
like ball-rush but instead of tagging you have to rip their tags off. .
Then we to get into three teams group 1, group 2 and group 3, I was in group 2. For this game we had to score a try across the court without getting your tag ripped off. One team would sit out and two teams will stay in. Hamish said we were the best team because we were spreading out and sharing the ball while other people were crowding around the and not spreading out. The next game we played is we had to line up in our lines and we had to pass the ball around but you could only pass backwards.
Then we tried playing the rip the tag off game again and everyone did pretty good.

This week for kiwi can, Mr Matt and Miss Lily made us play bang for our energiser, it was fun but also a competition because Mr Matt and Miss Lily were playing and who ever was standing next to you and Mr Matt or Miss Lily if or when they say that person in the middle of those two people Mr Matt and Miss Lily would know straight away  and they would say bang just like that, that's why you don't like playing with them because their so competitive. After that we talked about role models and who is your role model, my role model is harry potter because he is the best wizard ever, Then we played a game called banana, apple and orange it was so fun.

How to play bang:  You have to stand in a circle and
If the person on the side of the left or right side of you names get called out they have to duck and if they don’t duck fast enuf they are dead and whoever was last saying bang is out.

How to play banana, apple and orange: you have to stand in a circle and if Mr Matt or Miss Lily say apple you have to jump forward once and if they call out orange they have jump backwards once but if they call banana you have to jump to the opposite side of you.

The nervous system


LI:To plan and write a explanation. This week for writing we had to write a explanation about the nervous system. I did a big mistake but that's alright because i will try harder next week.

writing

Introduction
The nervous system is like cables that run through your body and whatever happens to your body the nervous system feels it and sends a messages to the brain by traveling through the spine. Your brain receives the message and thinks figures out a conclusion to this problem and sends a message back which tells you how to react to what is happening.
Explanation
Firstly it feels what is going on.Secondly it starts making a message to send to the brain.Thirdly it makes the massage and travels up your spine to get to the brain.fourthly the brain gets the message and sorts out what is happening. Fifthly the brain sends the message back and lastly the body reacts to what is happening.
Conclusion
Your nerves from any part of your body are sending messages to the brain to tell the brain what’s happening to that body part then the brain thinks of what to do and sends the message back saying what to do and the you do it.
CNS & PNS
There are two parts are which are the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The central nervous system (CNS) contains the brain and the spinal cord.The peripheral nervous system (PNS) contains the nerves, which leave the brain and the spinal cord to travel to certain areas of the body.
Spinal cords and brain
The brain stem connects to the spinal cord which controls hunger and thirst and some of the most basic body functions,such as body temperature, blood pressure, and breathing.The brain is protected by the bones of the skull and by a covering of three thin membranes called meninges.
