Puberty talk with Toni ( Embarrassing )

Kia orana everyone, today we had a special guess named Tony come in to talk to us about puberty. He has come in, to talk to us of how our body changes, and what could happen. In the next 3 paragraph i will tell you three main topics he talked about.


1.Growing hair.
Everyone in the world grows hair everywhere. You grow hair on your face, legs, arms, tummy, head, feet, and your genitals. but there’s 4 body parts that don’t grow hair which is your eyes, hand palm, lips and at the bottom of your foot. Growing hair is normal for everyone in the world, and even growing hair on your genitals is normal as well.

2. Girls changes
Girls have a lot of changes. When girls grow into an adult, there hips grow wider and your body may look curvy. Girls breast start to grow bigger and nibbles stand out. Girls have their periods and every female goes through that. Girls sweat more and stinks at the same time, so you have to use deodorant. The most important part is to wash your body every single day.

3. Talking with your parents.
Things change on your body which is cool. When things happen, don’t just think that you can do it yourself, you have to ask your parents for advice. For example, girls get their periods, you need to seek for help from your parents for some advice to know what to do. Shaving some hair off some of your body parts. Don’t just go ahead and do it. Ask your parents how to do it, or ask them to do it until they say that you can do it yourself. There’s more puberty things that you have to ask your parent while your body changes, and its the right thing to do when your going through body changes.

There you have it three topics Toni taught us today about puberty. 1.Growing hair is normal, 2.Girls changing body looks is normal, and 3.Talking to your parents is sometimes scary but you have to do it,and it’s the right thing to do, and I think it’s normal too. So body changing is normal for every single person in the world. Don’t be scared cause it happens to everyone.

Maths Problem

WALT: Monitor ourselves to complete our work

The immersion assembly

The term starts, the sun is shining bright, it’s time to find out what our topic will be for this term.
As usual our teachers has planned an item to perform to us, but they don’t release it until our
immersion assembly. Immersion assembly is the Pt England way!!  Not knowing what we’re
learning. Seeing the teachers acting normal like it’s the middle of the term. But wait until we
enter the hall, it’s gonna change the teachers look into the first day of the term. We enter the hall
at 9:00 and we get seated. We start with a prayer and with the national anthem. And now it’s
the teachers turn to be on stage.Let me explain to you in the next 3 paragraphs why we love
having immersion assemblies.

Being animated and eager to learn.. That’s what I love about the immersion assembly.
Soo excited to enter the hall to see everyone’s lovely face smiling and excited to see what
the teachers has to show us all, And that what I’m really excited for, to see what our team 5
teachers are gonna show us and explain to us what we’re doing for this term, by being funny
or showing us an example in a funny item. I love it when there so dramatic and funny cause it
really cracks me up.

Teachers challenge!!!!. Some teachers are on stage, trying to draw Mr Morand. 1 minute on the clock the teachers are starting….. Bing bing bing the time’s over and now it’s time to show us all what they’ve drawn on there peace of paper. First teachers shows us a person's face perfectly drawn. Second teacher has drawn are black circle with little blue marks. Third teacher has drawn are cartoon character. Fourth and last teacher has drawn a stickman, and the vote comes on to vote who won the challenge, and it was the face that's been perfectly drawn. And isn't that fun to watch. Watching the teachers  challenging each other at drawing. They struggle and that what we do but they had something to show us and that’s amazing.

This topic has really got me into starting this term. Arting, Drawing, Creating, Painting, and  challenging. That’s a whole lot of fun. Everyone is laughing, watching the teachers acting all funny.But you can always wait until we start learning, by the way my favourite act was team 5s. Immersion assembly is teachers trying hook us in for this term topic, and they show us that it will be fun,and most of all we need to know what our topic is for this term.  Our topic for this term is

“ Te Wa Toi”

(Arting time)

There you have it - 3 reasons as to why we love having immersion assemblies to kick off every term of learning at Pt England School.   Maybe you could use my explanation to help you set up something similar in your learning.
