Let me tell you what is something in the water

Let me tell you what is something in the water

Today was the first day of term 3. That means we had an immersion Assembly. It was pretty interesting and not what you expect. But teacher at our school always go beyond our expectation, and that's exactly what they did. Here is a recount on our term 3 immersion assembly enjoy!

The first thing I realised when we arrived into the hall was the smell of seafood in the air. I recognised the smell as it very strong and my mum some times cooks seafood  But I for one despise it. I hate the smell of seafood and I don't like the taste either. Unless of course it's sushi everyone loves sushi. We sit down and room five is usually in the back so I struggle to see what's going on, but I can see a grill all the way at the front of the hall. I also noticed the prefect we zooming across the hall like waiters and waitresses. 

When the music stopped the prefects did the Karakia and Mihi. Then Mr Burt greeted us, we greeted him back pretty much what happens in a normal assemebly. I don't realise what happened but in a blink of an eye Mr Burt pulled out a fish. He explained that it meant it was called a Kahawai and it mean Strong Water in Maori, as it's a very strong swimmer. Mr Burt also told us and it's really something to catch a Kahawai. He then sliced a sharp knife through the fish and started cutting it up. I didn't look as I didn't like it when thing got cut up.

When he finsihed a video from the team one teachers started. They had another S.O.F.A (Solution For Animals) movie. But instead of saving the bees they decided to look at sea creatures. They went on a journey and observed many different types of sea creatures. It was all very interesting and cool to watch. I am sure team 1 is excited to learn about sea life.

Mean while Mr Burt and started cooking the Kahawai and was now cutting a new fish. He told us about how him and his son liked to go diving and when they would find this fish it would shine it's target to scare them away. Mr Burt also said that when the fish shines it's target him and his son would throw their spears at it and try and hunt it down. He described the fish as Dory's Uncle. I thought it was pretty funny and was intrigued until he started cutting up that fish.

Once he finsihed a movie started playing from the team 2 teachers. It started with the teachers taking a nature walk around our reserve. They talked about ducks and how you shouldn't throw the bread in the water. They also walked along the beach and looked for sea creatures. The sad thing is that they didn't find many. At the end of the video Mrs Gaston came on stage and talked told us about what team 2 were gonna be doing.

This time their weren't any fish guts and we went straight into watching team three's movie. It was about Remona who was looking for a new guardian to look the water. She went to many different creatures she thought may suit the role but didn't find one until the very end. She was very tired and found a wise old fish that will only take what he needs and will always put everything else in front of himself. This movie had a great message and was very intertaining!

After the team 4's movie played it was about the team for teachers going to the beach. Their they looked at the veiw and even the sea creatures. They looked at the food chain and how the mollusk's ate the small little tiny microscofic fish and crabs eat the Mollusk and the Seagull's eat the Crabs. They also told us that humans are the biggest threat to birds and all the other creatures and we are interfering with the food chain.


The last item was from team 5 A.K.A the team I'm in. As always the team 5 teachers went beyond and came up with a little song/chant for us. It was about how all living organism are connected. They talked about Cella's and how inside the Cella's are Chromosome and inside the Chromosome and inside that is D.N.A and inside the D.N.A is Nucleodites and inside that Nucleodites are Genes. It was very entertaining and I even started singing along to it.

I had loads of fun at the immersion assemble and can't wait to do learning this term. Espacially because it's based around water and science. We maybe even have a trip to the beach to collect "SAMPLES. Another thing we have on this term is Manaiakalani Film Festival which is always loads of fun. I can't wait for this great term of learning!

A Few weeks ago me and my partner Silafaga  had to create a screencastify about showing what all  words on here mean. I really thing this was easy because i had some help from a friend. If i worked by myself, it would've been very hard.
