Kia Kaha stereotype diagram




Real men….. are strong
Females…. should be in the kitchen
Indian people… Work in dairies
Asian people… Are really smart
Maori people… Are black

Positive:
Stereotyping is a good thing because it assists psychologists in understanding different groups of people by grouping their common traits.

Assuming a group of students are smart will push them to study harder to prove their hypothesis.

Negative:
Judging people by there raise
Saying things that are necessarily true

The wiki game

Ok so the wiki games works by firstly giving you a word to look for on the wiki pages, and the aim of the game is to click on the quickest possible links that you think will lead you to the word you are looking for. If you have won on the left hand side it will show you all the other people that have won too and if you are one of the winners you can view their pathways that they took to find the word. Once you have finished the level you get given another word to find on wiki pages.
E.g. If the word was Japan you would click on the links which are highlighted blue, that you think will be the quickest way to find you goal. If you want to find the word quickly find words which relate to the word Japan for the  easiest pathway.

Estuary run

So you will need to be wearing shoes for the event and have your P.E gear on.

Step 1: Firstly you will run down the dive way and out the gates, you will then turn right and cross the crossing but watch out for cars.

Step 2: Run along the foot path and there will be road bumps on the way you need to watch out for the second to last road bump because you will turn left and cross the road.
Step 3: Run down the big hill until you make it down past 3 turn offs, the third turn off you will turn left again and take you to a little bridge were you will cross.

Step 4: Keep running through the bush and there you will turn right out of the bush and onto the estuary, for the rest of the way it is quite simple you just keep following the track.

Step 5: Lastly when you are at the end there will be a big hill and you will run up and run back along the foot path and back into school and down the drive way onto the bleachers.

Click cards

Click cards is a system which each class in school runs. There are 40 clicks on each card and you can get one click each day for good behaviour. Therefore if you have you have your name on the board with a cross next to it you do not get a click that day and if your absent you also don't get a click. If you get 40 clicks you get a Rimu bracelet which you can wear for the rest of the year, and if you manage to complete 3 cards which means you got 120 clicks you get a stars badge. But if you are seen with another house badge you will get yours taken off of you forever and you will not get it back. Relievers can also give you clicks if you are good. There are also stars cards which will be received at each house Hui and to people with will given vouchers, and at the end of each term Miss Coville with draw out 1 person for each house and they will get a stars jumper. You can also possibly get 4 bands if you get a tick every day for four terms.
