Week 7 Reflection

WHAT:This week we went into the hall and talked to a police officer called Constable Gray. When we were done talking to him we got to look at all of his equipment he had a batten and pepper spray.  He told us that he's  never had to use either of them since he's been a policeman. Also this week we went to Putiki Marae. When we got there we got welcomed on with a powiri on by one of the nanis, after that we went into the whare and another one of the nanis told us what the  patten on the  was about a game of draught's/chess.Next we stared in to our activities for the day our group went on the waka's first,we were group number three.

SO WHAT: This week  I learnt  why they had the pattern in the whare at Putiki Marae.I also learnt about what it's like  being a policeman.


NOW WHAT: Next week my goal is to get all of my work done on time and also wave out to police driving past.

PMI About Rules/Laws

PLUS:
They keep every living thing safe because people have to follow these laws and if they don't follow them they get punished.
All of the rules are obeyed by the community

MINUS:
I think some of the rule are unfair and are just stupid.
I think some of the laws are just pointless.

INTERESTING:
Not all of the laws and rules are obeyed by the community
The community thinks some of them are pointless.
People protest about it.

Rules and Laws - What's the difference?

A rule is...something that a group of people have to follow and is not enforced  by police or government but maybe by a  group of people. Rules are just something that you have to stick to but cannot get prosecuted by not doing so.

A law is... a legal title that you must obey. Laws are enforced by the police and government. 

If drunk driving was never a law millions of people around the world would die. The world would be to dangerous to live in. 

Week 6 Reflection

WHAT: This week we had a reliever for Thursday and Friday our reliever was  Mrs Coneglan To day we did some basic fact's and also did spelling and after spelling we were a loud to play a game on spelling city.  We started on making our class treaty and in a couple of weeks where going down to the bee hive  and the police college museum. We also coloured in some little people and put rules on them for our waka on the wall and put rules on the padals  then we coloured them in.


SO WHAT: This week I was reminded  about my division  and spelling words. I also learnt how to make a super hero on hero factory.


NOW WHAT: Next week I want to be more sensible and  not laugh and be stupid around my friends.
