Kiwi Can Reflection

This week for Kiwi Can this term, our theme was positive relationships and our topic was positive communication. First, we got into two groups (Mr M and Ms Grace's groups)  and did an energizer called Up and Down, which included using positive communication. For this activity, one group flipped the cones up, while the other flipped the cones down. The group that had the most cones flipped either up or down, would win. After that energizer, we talked about positive communication. As a act, Mr M asked Karlos to help him set a scene. In the act Mr M told Karlos that he was rubbish at basketball. In our groups, the goal was to get Karlos to be cheered up, by saying positive things. Nextly, we moved onto our activity, called Street Fighters. In this activity, we had fighting actions from Mr M and Ms Grace. In our groups, we competed against each other to see who could do a combinations of moves the fastest. I really enjoyed playing these activities and talking about positive communication.

For our fourth session of kiwi can, our topic was positive relationships and our theme was positive communication. Our kiwi can leaders are Ms. Paige and Mr. Alabati. To me I think that positive relationships means when you have a good relationship/connection with each other. Positive communication means when you talk in a positive way, with others. The energizer we played was called "hoop tug of war" and our activity was called "kick ball". For hoop tug of war we got into four teams, then had to try and pull the hoop to touch the cone. For kick ball we were split into two teams. Then we had to kick the ball for the other team to catch. The other team had to catch the ball, so the person from the other team doesn't run to the other side.

This week for kiwi can we had Ms. Paige and Mr. Alabati. Our theme was positive communication and our topic was voice tone. Positive communication is when you talk to someone in a positive way. Active listening is when you listen to others and voice tone is the way that you speak to other, for example happily, angrily and more. Our catchphrase was "kiwi can says, talk to me, so you can see, someone with positivity". One of the activities we played was called "Negative and Positive role plays", which was part of voice tones. For this game we got into groups and got a card which either had a positive or negative text. In groups we acted out the card, but started from negative to positive. For example someone was bullying someone. The person who got bullied was crying. The bully felt sad and went to say sorry. I've had a lot of fun playing these two activities.
