Music Genre(Blues)

In this video my group is playing blues in C, and I am singing a blues song called At last by Etta James. What I found difficult about arranging this piece was being able to sing in front of my class mates confidently and learning how to be more confident in my voice, and knowing that I can't get any better if I'm not trying my hardest and seeing which areas I can better myself in. Some challenges we faced as a group were trying to put everyone's talents together and making everything go well within our group and what each person played for example the guitar, drums, etc. We overcame these challenges when we kept on practicing and once miss came in and gave each and everyone advice of how to be better in what we were doing individually, then helping us put everything into 1 some what successful piece of music. Our performance was alright I guess, we were able to at least go through one whole round with everyone doing their part. I feel like our performance could have been better if we all tried our best and was confident in what we were doing, like if I was able to sing louder and let my all vocals out, and if the guitar and bass were a bit more clean. What I enjoyed about this task was being able to learn a bit more about the people in our group, and getting to work with them. What I learned from this task was how to work in a team well with the opposite gender, and being able to communicate well with each other. What I will do differently for the next task is working well with my team members and making sure I try my hardest to be more confident around my class peers.

Health Managing Self

||MANAGING SELF||

What does "Managing Self" mean?                                                                                                        -Managing self to me means taking responsibility for your own self and being able to do the things you should be doing without being told.

What have we been learning about managing self in PE?                                                                  WALT manage ourselves by coming up with what we should do before, during, and after a PE lesson, then trying to manage ourselves by completing those things and choosing to abide by those rules.

What have you enjoyed about learning about and focusing on managing self in PE?                      I have really enjoyed being able to understand what we should do during a lesson before actually participating in our sport or activity that we have planned out to participate in. Because it's helped me focus on my attitude and actions during PE and it has taught me to be more mindful of what I do in class, which is really helpful for me and also has a effect on others as well.

What part or parts of managing self have you done well in PE?
I feel like I have done well so far with managing what I do during our practical lessons because I have been able to see what we are suppose to do before a lesson. Then during the lesson, trying to succeed in doing those things well or the way I am suppose to do them. For example I feel like our practical lessons have been a bit better because everyone in class is able to see our learning intention so basically what we're trying to achieve in the particular lesson, and we are all able to try complete that to our best ability, trying to better ourselves in places we had a poor attitude against.

What have you found challenging or difficult about managing self in PE?
I guess understanding some sports that I

Should Facebook be banned in schools???

My point of view-

I think Facebook should be banned but it also shouldn't be banned either, here's why. I feel like Facebook should be banned because it can be such a huge distraction to students these days especially because its a big way to communicate with friends while in school. It can also be bad because of the things that are showcased on there, there may be dramas on Facebook, and things that other students put up to make other students feel so low about themselves, and this can lead to cyber bullying. Cyber bullying, a very huge depression starter, cyber bullying is one of the biggest reasons why people also want to commit suicide, it causes people to feel like they aren't worth anything, and this is why I feel like it should be banned. Now why I think it shouldn't be banned. I feel like Facebook isn't bad at all, it all just depends on the person who uses it and how they use it. Facebook can be good because you can use it to communicate with family, like if there is a emergency at school and there were no teachers or adults around they could use it to talk to family so they can get help. Facebook can also be useful to gather information about others for assignments or for your school work, and for art you can use it as a provider for images you may need for art assignments and what not.

Teachers point of view-

I think teachers would think this is good because they would see a big change in students, students will be a lot less distracted and they would hopefully start focusing on their school work way more. 

Parents point of view-

I feel as if parents would be happy about this and not so happy as well. Happy because they pay for their students schooling, in which they send their kids to school with hope that they will get a better education, and that they will better themselves in their learning. But it would probably also make them upset because it can also be their only way of communicating with their kids in case of a accident or anything major.

Ways to Wellbeing

10KIRI - EVIDENCE

Once you have completed one of the five ways to wellbeing activities, write a blog post about your experience: Which of the five ways to wellbeing did you demonstrate, and how? I demonstrated 3 of the 5 ways to wellbeing, give, connect, and keep learning. When I learnt how to make a bird origami and gave it to Miss Samu, and also by playing cards with Sonny and Francis. Include Evidence I used this https://www.origamiway.com/easy-origami-dog.shtml, and I also needed my friends "Sonny and Francis" It was hard when I was making the origami bird because it had a few steps. The steps helped me because they were easy to understand. How do you feel now that you have demonstrated 1 (or more) of the five ways to wellbeing? I feel happy because I was able to learn something new, and I was able to hang out with my friends.

The most enjoyable part of completing these tasks was finding out what I actually really want in my life for the future, and getting to appreciate those things I have in life right now, that I want in life forever.
One thing I have learnt during this task is how to be grateful in life, and that everything I have now won't last forever so I have to be more appreciative.
Finding out more about others in my class will be helpful because I get to know their backgrounds, and be that friend where I understand them, try to help them, and give them all I can to help them when they need it.
