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 fun becuse we were learning how to write before camp and after camp. Exaple is like don't talk when teacher is talking after camp is like doing the rihgt thing and listening to the instructor tellis what you should do.
LI: To create an infographic using google draw that tells your audience facts about the kokako.
This week, everyone in LS2 has been given a set of different challenges based on our camp. For this activity we used our smart searching skills to find information about the North Island Kokako bird.
I found this activity enjoyable because we get to find lots of information about the north island bird like the bird is known as a kokako is oftan seen often eating fruits and leaves
LI: To create a collage of your camp highlights
This 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 we were using photos that we did at camp and making it look pretty.
LI: To recount a 5 minute snapshot of one experience you had at camp
“Im terrified!” On the way up the ladder I paused for a moment, thinking not to be scared, I couldn't get my head around thinking about how high I am, but at least I had 7 teammates that were cheering me on to not to be scared. I carried on climbing, until my heart was beating fast like a racing car, that my legs were shaking. I was terrified about how my teammates were watching me walking across the log to the other side.
Me thinking about being high off the ground made me want to throw up, but I didn’t. Parts of me didn’t want to do this but another part of me moved one leg up onto the ladder. Step by step I get closer to the end of the ladder. Looking at the metal staples made my stomach turn anticlockwise.
Moving up the metal staples one by one motivated me even more to go all the way. I reached the end of the pole and hugged it so tightly that I never wanted to let go. I looked down and saw how high I was. I have never felt more safe in a harness. I started to turn around so I could face the other pole at the other end.
I looked around me and saw trees and how far I was from the ground. I started walking across the beam towards the next pole ahead. I felt like I was walking across lava, reaching the next pole made me so happy that I was ready to walk back half way. I made it halfway and I was ready to come down. I was told but I felt scared because I have to hop off the beam so they can lower me down. I had to face my fears one day so I gathered all my strength and laid back and let the instructor bring me down.
When I came down, I was so proud of myself that I knew I achieved my goals and I overcame my fears.
I found this activity fun because we get to write what we were scared of and how it felt like im scared of heights.
