MOTHERS DAY POEM

My Mum Julie!!!

Her smile so big and bold it can stand out in any crowd,

Her dark hair that in the morning, looks like a roaring lion’s mane in till she tames it,

I love the smell of the Kerastase hair conditioner after she washes it.

Her soft hair just like rose petals,

That’s why I love her,

The sound of her soft calm voice always cheers me up when I’m down,

I love it when she strokes her soft moisturised hands through my knotty hair,

That’s why I love her,

My mum’s breath smells like a hot cup of tea in the morning,

She is the best mum in the universe,

That’s why I love her to the moon and back.

TE REO.

This term we have been learning TE REO try work out what they are saying:

MY QUESTION MATRIX

This is my question matrix for my passion project:

Passion project: Dance.

Passion Project: DANCE!!!

WHAT IS DANCE?

Dance is a sport that includes moving rhythmically  to music following usually a set sequence of steps. You can dance alone or with a group. There are lot’s of different types of dance such as, ballet, which is a slower more technical  dance. Jazz which is like ballet but a bit more faster, groovy and  upbeat. Then there’s tap, tap is and exciting form of dance where dancers wear special shoes with equipped with metal taps. Tap dancers use their feet like drums to create rhythmic patterns and timely beats, hip hop is a dance were dancers let loose and don’t worry too much about their technique  and just dance to upbeat hip hop music.  modern dance is a dance style that rejects many of the strict rules of classical ballet. AND are just the main dances , there are still tons more .

WHY DO PEOPLE CHOOSE TO DANCE!!!

The reason why i think people dance is because the love it and  dance is a way of telling people a story but by your moves and actions instead of talking. You can dance when you feel down and it can cheer you. Or if you’re a really fidgety and energetic (like me)  you  can dance for a while and it will tire  you out.  

WHAT WOULD IT TAKE TO BE A DANCER!!!

It takes a lot of patience and responsibility to be a dancer. You have to have patience to learn new skills because you're not going to get them first try.

Commitment is a big part of dance you learn a recital routine and then let your team down by QUITTING. To be a dancer you have to be willing to do stretches that your teaching has told you to do because that will help you to get better.

Why does stretching help you get better at dancing?

From what i found out stretching helps tremendously stretching  can help lower the risk of injuries such as ankle sprains or breaks if the foot isn’t stretched properly. More importantly if you haven’t stretched your back you can seriously hurt it and possibly break it. streching can also help with your hitch-kicks, pirouettes, splits and a lot more.

Iformation Report

This is my imformation report about my passion: Dance.

Dancing!!!

Dance is a sport that you move in time with the music usually following a set sequence of lively movements resembling a dance. You can dance solo or in a small group.

Types of dances:

There are lot’s of different types dances these are the main ones, Ballet, which is a slower technical dance style, jazz which is like ballet but a lot faster and not as technical or there’s hip hop which is danced to a  fast beat and you just let loose and move. There are lot more such as, tap, modern, swing, contra, country and western, Belly dancing, flamenco, latin, folk, break dancing, Acro and classical.

What Shoes to wear:

In some dances there are special shoes you have to wear. Junior ballet dancers wear pink (for girls) or black (for boys) slip on ballet slippers. Advanced ballerinas wear Pointe shoes. There are also jazz shoes for jazz dancers and some hip hop dancers wear canvas or converse  shoes.  Some dances just wear sneakers/trainers or simply bare feet.

Time and effort:

It takes time and effort to be a dancer. Commitment is a big part of dance, when a dancer commits  to a recital they can’t let their team down by not showing up or quitting right before the show. Dancers also have to be willing to stretch or work on flexibility because if they’re not they're not going to get better.

Maddie Ziegler:

Maddie is a dancer who gained national attention as a top performer on the reality lifetime TV show “Dance Moms”. Her strongest styles of dance are tap and lyrical. Maddie’s birthday is september the 30th 2002 and she was born at Pittsburgh PA  She danced  in SIA’s music videos “Chandelier” and “Elastic Heart”. Maddie has a younger sister Mackenzie who was also on Dance Moms. The sky’s the limit for 14 year old Maddie Ziegler.

Over all dance is a great sport if you're willing to work hard !!!

GOAL SETTING!!!

MY GOAL 2017 !!!

1  Last term my goals were to: reach stage seven by the end of the year and to be resilient and turn up to every cheer practice for the term.

2. So far I have come to every cheer practice except for two because I wasn't at school. So I think I achieved this goal. I haven't got to stage seven yet but, I have been practicing really really hard and I still have two more terms  and I got 68% on my last knowledge test. 

3. This term my smart goals are to get 75% or more on stage six. To use more  show not tell and to have a growth mindset towards my learning.

4. I'm going to achieve these goals by working really hard on my math being focused at all times and using my time wisely.  Use descriptive vocabulary in my writing  to show people what's happening  instead of  making it boring by telling people. Always think positive to grow and train my brain.
