Water Safety Skills

Over the years many children have drowned because they simply didn’t have the skill to swim. Which is why I am going to create an instructional tutorial including some things you will need to know during bad situations in the water.

Tip 1 (Floating) - When in and around water, everyone should or may I say MUST know how to float. The first thing that can help your body float is movement. When in the water, the best movement to use to stay buoyant is the classic doggy paddle. But that can run you low on energy so when you’re in the situation of trying to stay afloat but you are too tired, simply roll onto your back and stick your gluteus maximus as high as can go. That way your body will stay floating and you wont have to worry about drowning.

Tip 2 (Conditions and surroundings) - When swimming in the ocean there will always be the possibility of the weather changing, whirlpools beginning and potentially, shark surroundings. In the happenings of the weather changing, from sunny to stormy, the best thing to do is to evacuate the ocean in case the tide rips you away. And possibly drowns you like a murderer taking a hostage and putting them in a mincer. And second to last but not least, when a whirlpool begins and catches you the worst possible thing to do is to fight it because that will just tire you out and eventually you will drown.So in case of that matter, instead of fighting the whirlpool, you should swim around it and try and find an opening hole to safely swim out of.  

 To finish off this instructional tip advisor, we are going to talk about the situation of a shark surrounding you. First of all DO NOT PANIC. To safely escape the shark, swim away as calm as possible that way the shark will not notice you and you will get out of the beach alive.

This was a little explanation on how to survive in and around water.

Definition of Inference

Inference was a word I wasn't familiar with until now. I now know that Inference means a conclusion summed up by evidence or reasoning. For example, "We were driving down the road and the window wipers were swishing back and forth, almost as fast as the car", so a person can infer from that, that it is rainy.

My Maths Aim

This term I have learnt a lot of different varieties of maths things. But the one that was quiet difficult for me was consumer maths. The part that got me was the percentages bit. So I am aiming to learn more about percentages to fraction, to help me understand more about consumers maths.

~ Meaning of Tiaki Taonga ~

This morning we completed a speed writing challenge. We were expected to write a piece of writing in 10 minutes about Tiaki Taonga. Right after we were given 5 minutes to pair share and proof read.

Caring for our school, our people, our most treasured, are all things based under Tiaki Taonga. What else does Tiaki Taonga mean.

 Well we may not see it or hear it but it is literally everywhere. In songs, movies, shops even. Like at KFC you don’t go there and buy a family pack for yourself. No, you go and buy it to share with your family because you care about them. The same situation happens at school.

 We come to school to learn. But how do we learn, we get taught. Taught by the best teachers students could ever have. Our teachers care about us, which is why everyday they put new information into our heads. Not just for fun but to help us in the future. Even famous people care.

Beyonce for instance, she doesn’t make new songs for the sake of it. She makes new songs to entertain us. Without people like Beyonce and MJ, people like Parris Goebel wouldn’t be known.

 So basically we need to care for one another to help each other succeed. Once again, without Beyonce and other famous singers/music makers, those famous dancers like Parris Goebel and Brian Puspos would never had been heard of. Im sure the famous music makers don’t know it but they helped others succeed without even knowing it.
