The skeletal system is to support your balance, protect your organ when playing sports and also your heart and bloodcells. It also have the role of movement. It helps you to move your legs when running and your arms when catching or throwing anything. There are 206 bones that all have different names. I learnt that the skull bone is actually called cranium which is something I didn't know.
This is a skeletal system made out of the P.E equipments we did for P.E. We were put into groups and we had about 5-10 mins to get any equipments from the P.E shed to create a skeletal system.

Q1: What are your previous experiences with blogging?
Back in Primary, blogging was a big thing, it was where we would blog and share all our learning for other people to see. I loved blogging and sharing what I learnt in class and giving feedback to others.
Q2: How do you think blogging impacts on your learning?
Blogging impacts on my learning because it's all apart of the Manaiakalani learning and since I blogged throughout Primary and Intermediate I know and understand how to blog. Blogging impacts in being confident being able to share your learning with other people without keeping your work shared with your teachers only.
Q3: How do you feel about blogging? Why?
I think blogging is a good thing for us to go back to doing, because if there's people who don't understand any work then they can just go to their classmates blog and catch up with anything instead of asking the teacher for help and wasting the class time trying to catch up with everyone.
