First Aid Course

In Te Maunga we have been learning first aid. We learnt the DRSABCD. The letters of DRSABCD all stand for different things you need to do to help an injured person. The first thing you need to remember to do is look for danger to yourself. The second thing to do is if you patient looks unconscious, is to tap them on the shoulder five times and talk loudly to them and ask them if they are alright to check if they are really unconscious or not. The third thing is to send for help. Call 111 or get someone else to call or get an adult to help. If your patient is unconscious, the first thing you do is check their airway to see if anything is blocking it. Tilt their head back and lift their chin, check their is nothing in their mouth. We also learnt to how put a bandage on someone and make a cast. I feel like I just learnt a whole lot of new things about what to do to help people if their is an accident.

The four shot movie

We have been learning about four shot movies. Isaiah, Tia and I made a movie about Superman but we called it Super Vinnie. The four shots we  used were  a close up, bird’s eye view, long shot and the medium shot. The movie had to be around 30 seconds long. Then we had to write a narrative about our movie. What I feel I did well is understanding the instructions on how to make a four shot movie. I hope you enjoy my writing and our little video.

Here is our Movie.

Super Vinnie

Once upon a time there lived a man called Vinnie. Vinnie was a superhero he flew through the sky like an aeroplane. Then he was so serious on his missions because if he lost he would get fired. He was so strong and he was fast. Vinnie was the best superhero in the land.  His previous mission was to capture the Joker. The Joker was hardest person to defeat. Super Vinnie could fly up to clouds and airplanes. Super Vinnie  worst friend ever was called Mr Evil Pork Chop. Some people saw Super Vinnie  fly and they were shocked.

Canada

In Te Maunga we have been learning about google Earth because we had Mr Lindsay for the day.  Liam N, Kingston and I made a slide show about Canada.  I did well describing the facts.  I also did well by making the slide show not too fancy.  I could do better by spending more time on it a little       more.
