Kiwi Can

The focus of This term is Positive Relationships 
We are starting to look specifically at positive communication first.
"Kiwican says communication say the word,
Use your words so you can be heard.
No need to Arthur, listen and see,
clear understanding is the key."

Our energiser was a game of Ninja. The game started with all group members saying "Ninja Ha!". To coincide with that, each person made a ninja stance. They then freeze.
One person starts and makes one movement to try and tag another person's arm. They can make a movement to dodge it. Each movement must freeze afterwards. If you're tagged, you put that arm behind your back. When both of your arms are tagged, you sit down. The winner is the last person standing.

If there were problems, like someone getting carried away and hitting a bit too hard... we needed to use respectful communication by using our manners to ask them to settle down. 

Everyone has different points of view, meaning that we all have different perspectives and opinions. We need to listen to our friends and come to an understanding.

To practice listening to other group members, we played "Wizard Giant Dwarf".

Wizard beats Dwarf
Giant beats Wizard
Dwarf beats giant

  1. Hello, Bryce and Shylah here from Room 7 Hornby Primary. I like the way you told lots of information. I've never played these games before. Maybe you could add more pictures and be more clear. Did you enjoy the games?

  2. Hi, Kody and Ahyan here from Hornby Primary School in Room 7. It is good that you have added lots of writing and I think this blog is really interesting. Good job adding how to play the game, this would teach people how to play the game if they did not now how to play it. Try not to add every single piece of detail, people might get bored from reading all. What was your favourite game to play?

  3. Hi, this is Vilar and Sean from Hornby Primary School. Our favorite part is the ninja game. My class played a game that we have to make a movement and they have to freeze and the other person had to make up what you are doing. I enjoyed the part were we have to make up what we are doing for the game.
