Attitude is AWESOME!  Today we covered a number of things that happen during puberty.

Hair

Skin

Sweating

*Pimples

*Eat healthy

*Sweat: sweat doesn’t smell - it’s the bacteria in it that creates the bad odour.  Anti-perspirant - stops you from sweating. Helps you to smell well

*Wash every day: hot soapy water wash DAILY.

For the girls

Lots of awkward words for some of us ;) we had to be very mature to sit, listen and learn.

For the boys

*Believe in yourself  *You are valuable

Lord of the rings...orks?? What was this story about?  Bullrush...Man bun

$5 what is it worth?  Step on it...spit on it...say ‘Your useless $5’...no matter what is done to it it is still worth $5!  Similar to us - no matter what’s been said to you - how you have been chewed up and spat you just as valuable as you have always been!  You are valuable!!

Relationships take time.   Average age for relationships in NZ is 16 years of age.  No need to rush, learning to be a great friends is wayyyy more important.  It will set you up well for your future.

Parents

Talk with your parents - it’s good and the right thing to do.  They know a whole lot that can help you in life today! They can be a great resource - tap into them.

Growing hair on your genitals and growing lots of hair on your legs and arms everywhere on your body this happens when you go through puberty.

Going through puberty means getting a relationship the average age for getting a relationship is 16.

Seluone Fire on the Farm

  Fire on the Farm

Once there was a farm with three horses. The three

horses were named Aster Star and Jess. There were

two dogs named Tip and Black. The kids names

were Toby and Shannon and they lived in a farm. Their parents went to the bank for an hour. The

kids had to stay home alone. Then their parents

left to the bank and then after a few minutes,

there was a fire at the pines paddock and the

three horses stayed at the pines paddock.  Shannon

went to go save the three horses because she

didn't want the horses to burn. Then

she went to get the dogs Tip and Black

to put them inside. After that Shannon went to

get the three wheeler. After Shannon went off. To

save the three horses she had to go across

the house paddock. Over the dry creek and then

the long paddock then finally the pines paddock. She

was at the pines paddock she got the

three horses then took them back to the farm.

who is my hero

Who is my hero? Paragraph writing

Point: What is the point of this paragraph?

My mum is my hero because she makes my food.

Explain: Explain your point so that the reader knows what your point is about, and so you know what you are writing about.

She makes me any food I like and it is delicious!

Example/Evidence: is there anything from your research or that you know that can back up your point?

Mum makes me toast and porridge for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch, and she surprises me with different things for dinner.

Relevance: summarise your paragraph and link it back to the question!

She is the best helper and that is why she is my hero.

Seluone ‘Show not Tell’ Task

Work with a partner to see if you can rewrite one of these  to ‘Show
not Tell’

I felt angry. My hands crunched to fist and then I kicked the door
and stomped out of the door.

It was a sunny day. The sun was so bright my eyes where red and
my face was sunburn and the clouds were nowhere to be seen.

It was cold at the beach. The water was grey, a reflection from
the sky, and the wind was cold it wiped tears from eyes
and the towels were wet from keeping the people dry.

Brainstorm as many different ideas as you can that show that it was cold at the beach.

Now try to write a paragraph using these ideas that shows it was cold at the beach,
without using the words beach or cold (don't just switch the word cold to another
adjective such as freezing as that is still just telling. - Try to show that you
are cold. Think about how you are feeling/what you are doing/what you see/
hear/feel to help show this.
