Gold rush knowledge

This week for hurumanu 1 wich is reading and social studies we have been looking at the gold rush history in New Zealand. We have been told to make a blog post before we read the story. The teachers want us to say what we think the gold rush is and what we think of it. 

When I hear the words gold rush I think of something to do with gold and mining but I also think of rush I think of someone in a rush to go to work. But when I put the two words together I think of someone rushing gold to the city or something along that line. We were also told to write about what we thought discrimination meant, I didn't have a lot of ideas on what this meant but I think it means something like destroying something and then getting caught. 

Next week I will post about the research and the correct answers to the word discrimination and gold rush and all the reading I have done for reading and social study.

Obstaball P.E

Today in P.E we were paired up with another group to play the games that we made first we played the game that my  group made up. We had me, Hope, Shontelle ,Addyson and Nici .We called our game  Obstaball. We made a list of rules for our game with all the things that are very important about our game to get to the other group that we were paired up with. Then we played the other groups game. The groups game name was called schadenfreude. In play a game I really enjoyed that we had to get up to 10 points . I didn't like how there where are a lot of rough  people playing and how it was really easy to get hurt if I was to change one thing I I would want more referees.

This is my group's game
