Duffy Assembly

LI: To understand how reading can change one's life.

Today we had Marc from Duffy come and talk to us about the importance of reading and how reading can make a big impact on your life.  Although Marc had some challenges in his life he used reading as a tool to get through the hard times.  Marc believes that there is only CANs and not CAN’Ts.

I found the words that Marc said interesting, sad because he couldnt find a job because of his criminal record

Key Competencies

 LI: To compare the Key Competencies we think we will use on camp and the Key Competencies we actually used.

Before we went to camp our challenge was to think about when we might use the Key Competencies as we faced the challenges.  When we came back from camp we looked at this and compared how we thought we would use the Key Competencies and how we actually used them. 

I found this activity very interesting because I relised how key competencies helped me during camp.

camp collage

LI: To create a collage of your camp highlights.

last week LS2 have been celebrating our camp. I created this collage to show my time at camp and the activities I enjoyed. To make my collage effective I thought about the size of the images, the angle of the images and I tried hard not to leave any gaps between the photos.

I found this activity fun because I were reminded of the time where I had a really good time with my friends.

5 minutes of camp.

LI: to recount a 5 minute snapshot of one experience you had.

The experience of High Beam

I climbed up the ladder step by step.

 The ladder moved every step I took.

 I stood in shock dripping with sweat hoping I wouldn't fall.

As soon as I reached the top of the beam the inside of me screamed with happiness.

As soon as I reached the top of the beam I was so happy that I made it.

I walked slowly across to the other side feeling a bit scared as well as trying not to look down because I knew it was high up.

I walked quarter of the way feeling the beam shaking and walked a little bit more hearing people below myself supporting and cheering me on as I walked more and more reaching out to the end of the beam.

As I reached to the end of the beam I heard clapping and more cheering I said to myself congrats you made it

Feeling so amazed with what I just achieved I slowly sat on the beam letting my legs dangle towards the ground.

When I touched the ground I saw my teammate walking towards me clapping and smiling.I felt my teammate touch my shoulder and congratulate me.
