Intro: After Researching about the Olympic uniform We started to Plan our Uniform here Is what you need and how  to make it.  

What you need
Singlet pattern.
Material.
Sewing mac.hine
Stitching needle
Thread.
Measuring tape.
Pins/Pin cushion.


How We Made The Uniform
  1. We got the singlet pattern and traced around it.
  2. Then we cut it out.
  3. Next we started to stitch the uniform together.
  4. Dannii and I started to decorated the T-Shirt.
  5. After that Chloe then tried it on.

Reflection


Chloe:I liked the way Dannii collaborated with me and tried to get it done in time for the presenting and I enjoyed how we got to chose what project we wanted to make,when I work with Dannii we collaborate well and get our work done . i used my persevering muscle  trying to get done in time.


Dannii: I really Enjoyed cutting out and stitching the pattern. The hard part was trying not to poke myself with the pins all the time, and getting distracted by other groups and people. The  learning muscle that i used was the resilience muscle because i persevered when learning got tough. Chloe worked really well with me and she was absorbed in her learning most of the time. : ) :P.


Here is a picture of our finished project.

Blind Throw




Blind Throw 

Blind Throw is a game that is played in the Paralympics it was made for the people with Cerebral Palsy or people that are in wheel-chairs or with disability's. 




What went well? Why? How?
The one thing that went well for me was the team work that me and Chloe had together.





How did it feel as a Learner when playing blind throw?

At a point i felt nervous that I was going to play the game wrong but I also felt happy because i got two of the beanbags in the yellow hoop and 1 in the red in one go


The learning muscle that i used was my perseverance muscle because sometimes i kept getting out or hitting people in the head

My Lost Story



“Come on Benji you can cross the river”.  As I said from the other side. We where doing a competition, you had to get yourselfs lost in the bush. Benij and I was in a team. We got lost but could not find our way back so we started to walk around. We found a river and it was to big to walk or jump across. There was a vine to swing on so I went first. I dont know why. Then Benji was next but he could not reach the vine. I knew that he did not weigh much. I got a branch to hold and he could walk across it and he made it.


As we where walking Benji saw a light, it was my cousins Ashleigh and Maddie, they were lost too. They were trying to find shelter or a team
. So Ashleigh and I got together and let Maddie and Benji play. Ashleigh and I knew that we were not going to get out of this untill morning.  We built a bivvy to stay in for the night.” Dannii we want food were starving” said Maddie and Benji. So we rased off and went out and found apples. Then we stayed the night in the shelter. In the morning we got everything we came  here with. We eventuly found the house. I was so happy to see my mum again. After that we all had a walk in a crevis. I fell into the deep river “SPLASH!!!!” everyone laughed at me. I was soked.

We got dressed and had dinner. Then we went to bed and we talked all night.
