Kia ora welcome back or welcome to my blog. Today I will be telling you about some Broadway costumes. Since my teacher is away we had to choose something from the slideshow, I chose to make a poster of some costumes from Broadway. I chose Mary Poppins her classic white lace dress. I then chose Belle from Beauty and the Beast, specifically her yellow ball gown. I enjoyed writing about their dresses and explaining all the details and the times that the dresses are based on. Here is my poster:

Kia ora welcome back or welcome to my blog. Today I will be telling you about the circle of control. Circle of control is what you can control, can’t control and what you can influence. The smallest circle is what you can control like what you say and do. the medium circle is what you can influence, like your friends actions and your health. The largest circle is what you can’t control, like the weather, and the economy.
Here is a photo of my circle of control.
Kia ora welcome back or welcome to my blog. Today I will be explaining the affect that colour has on peripheral vision. For science we have been diving into the 5 senses, sight, smell, hearing, touch and taste. We looked at sight and Peripheral vision, specifically the affect it has with different colours.
We made an upscale protractor out of paper and we put it up to our nose, we made a triangle in different colours and we tested at what degree would we see it when focusing on a pin in the middle. For me it took about 20 degrees, Nathan was 10 degrees or less and Patrick was a around zero degrees.
If you look at the graph above you can see that green and red are easier to see than yellow and pink. though the difference is small it is a difference.

Kia ora welcome back or welcome to my blog today I will be talking about hockey basics.
There are multiple positions in hockey, forward, defence, goalie and midfielder. You need a hockey stick, mouth guard and shin-pads. Goalies however have a kit with kickers, shin pads, chest guard, shorts, helmet, neck cover, arm guards ECT. The aim is to dribble or pass the ball and hit it into the goal. some rules are don’t touch the ball with your feet or body, do not use the back of the stick, do not purposely hit it out, no contact with other people.
I play hockey for year 8 and I play goalie. I play 7 aside currently but i will be doing 11 aside in year 9. I have been playing hockey for three years now.
Kia ora welcome back or welcome to my blog. Today as it is the last day of the term I will be telling you about something I learnt in the past 3 weeks. I have decided to cover the story of Tawhirimatea.
Tawhirimatea was the god of the weather, more storms, thunder, clouds and things similar. He was the child of Papatuanuku, the earth mother, and Ranginui, the sky father. Tawhirimatea is the eldest of 7, all of which are boys, two of their names are Rongo and Haumia-Tiketike the gods of cultivated and uncultivated foods.
Tawhirimatea and his brother were all squished between their parents, lost in the darkness. Tawhirimatea persuaded his brothers to desperate their parents and send their father, Ranginui, into the heavens. Then having freedom to move, the earth was only filled with darkness and the floods from the tears of their parents. Twahirimatea then went to kill his brothers as revenge. and at his last battle with one of his brothers, before he died he pulled put his eyes and threw them into the heavens saying that every time his brother looked into the sky his brother would be looking down at him, and that’s when Matariki formed.
