ASB Getwise

L.I To learn how to spend money wisely.

Today LS2 went to learn about how to stop think and make wise decsions. With the instructor Marlon he tought us how to spend money wisely and how to save money wisely. We played a game with money we had $1800. We had a choice how much we want to save and how much we want spend. In my group it was Me Tau Aisea Leon and Micah. I was the person who gave the money but we all had to agree if we want to spend our money on the small stuff or the big stuff. The small stuff was $200 or either $500 the big stuff cost $800 or $600 in the end we had $300 the food cost $200 then we had $100 We had 16 excitement points. The trip to fiji was amazing (thats the place went in the game).  

Key Competencies

 LI: To compare the Key Competencies we think we will use on camp and the Key Competencies we actually used. 

• Before we went to camp our challenge was to think about when we might use the Key Competencies as we faced the challenges.  When we came back from camp we looked at this and compared how we thought we would use the Key Competencies and how we actually used them. 

• I found this activity cool because I got to use them for help

Kokako Infographic

 LI: To create an infographic using google draw that tells your audience facts about the kokako.

This week, everyone in LS2 has been given a set of different challenges based on our camp.

For this activity we used our smart searching skills to find information about the North Island Kokako bird. I found this activity fun because I liked the color and the bird.

Brochure

LI: To a collaborative brochure that tells others why Kokako Lodge is a great place to go on camp

Over the last week everyone challenged themselves during the sessions at archery, high ropes, kayaking, raft building, camp cooking, pancake race and team building/orienteering. Our group collaborated to create a brochure that shows others why Kokako Lodge is a great place to go on camp.

I found this activity cool because I got to hang out with my friends and I got to learn new things.

 

5 minutes of camp

LI: To recount a 5 minute snapshot of one experience you had at camp

Best moments of my life

As I paddled my sweat was dripping off my head. My heart was pounding so fast I thought I was going to have a heart attack. Each time I paddled it was like a boost of confidence. My head would say ``Go back´´ I would whisper ``No you can do this´´

Then at that very moment I was paddling faster and faster. My hands were shaking and then out of nowhere my insides laughed. I wasn't scared any more. So from that moment onwards I was smiling with joy and a thought popped in my head. I started to do some tricks and after that I wasn't scared and my hands weren't shaking. As the sun went down, the light from the sun hit the waterfall. I looked into the sun and it was beautiful and I took a deep breath. It was the best moment of my life.

Last week we went to camp at Kokako Lodge. My 5 minute snapshot shows my personal voice and I have tried hard to paint a picture with my words to describe what I was doing and how I felt. My favoreite part was when I did a reverse drive.
