My Lockdown

  This Term has been pretty crazy with everything happening in New Zealand and around the world. In term 1 & 2 everything was normal and us students would be at school with teachers learning, but because of level 4  lockdown we are not able to do learning from school and see our friends or go to school and it has lasted for the whole of term 3. I was kinda sad because It's better doing my school work at school because there's no distractions and when I need help I can ask my friends or  teachers for help but when I'm at home you get distracted and when your family members are busy they can’t help you. Being at home helps me improve my talents like baking, singing, dancing and communicating better with my family. Most of my siblings birthdays were during this lockdown so we had to find a way to still make it special even though we can’t go anywhere or can’t do anything during lockdown. This lockdown has effectively helped me communicate better with my family and spend more time together and have fun like playing board games, baking together, watching a movie together, chatting with my family who are international, sing songs together and dance together. I am so grateful for this lockdown because it helps me build my talents and  I know that these beautiful talents that I have will help me in the future. 

 

As you may be aware, Auckland is currently in level 3 lockdown, and some students are still doing school work from home, while parents who are required to work send their children to school. As you may be aware, when Auckland returns to level 3, takeaways reopen, and the lines at all takeaways were long. It's as if the world is ending and there will be no more takeaways and the building will be destroyed; Level 3 is comparable to Level 4 as we remain in our own bubble.This lockdown has been extremely difficult because school term 3 has ended and we are still under lockdown, which is really frustrating because it makes it difficult for us to interact with our teachers and friends. Lockdown is something that has actually helped me have more fun and it has helped me with my talents such as baking and other things. It has also helped me with more of my talents such as building and learning new things, as well as exploring other things that I haven't done before.

What is the best fun activity to do in lockdown?

 What is the best fun activity to do in lockdown? 

My school has been in lockdown for about one week, because of the covid-19 outbreak here in Auckland. It is now Week 5 in Term 3. I am going to share with you about what I have been doing. 

Bubble life has returned to being at home with family 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This means you can engage in a variety of activities with your family during the lockdown. So let me tell you a little bit about those games. 

One of our favourite activities to do as a family is play board games. Board games such as  monopoly, chess, uno, junga and cards.

In my opinion, these are the most exciting board games to play in lockdown. My family enjoys playing Junga. 

The rules of the game for Jenga are:

Rule number 1 - you have to take one block on a turn from any level of the tower except the one below an incomplete top level. 

Rule number 2 - you have to  place it on the top most level in order to complete it. The game ends when the tower falls completely or if any block falls from the tower other than the block a player moves on a turn. 

The key to winning Jenga is to remove your block without the tower falling while at the same time making it more unstable for your opponent's next move. If you notice the left side of the tower is leaning, then take from the right side.

 

I believe that board games are the best games to play because board games bring some unique health and life improving benefits to a person’s life. Board games can improve a person's benefit by bringing people closer, strengthen relationships, and can help you meet  people and it  creates competition and nobody likes to lose.  We all take turns at playing and some board games require a lot of thinking such as chess. 

Although board games are a lot of fun - playing cards can be a lot more exciting to play.  Some of these card games are called last card, snap, and speed. 

I believe that board games, such as monopoly, chess, uno, jenga, and cards are the ideal games to play, especially during lockdown level 4 and since they provide a great opportunity to interact and open up whilst also allowing you to  express your creative and competitive side. 

This is my Writing about What is the best fun activity to do in lockdown and I really enjoyed writing this because its about me being in lockdown and my story is about lockdown. Thank You So Much To Ms Hill for helping me with my writing.

Keeping on top of my well-being

This is what I have been doing for my well being because as you know Auckland is on lock down so we are trying to actually stop covid 19 these are things that are going around to me especially  praying because we need to pray to ask god to come and take away this corona virus so that know one is sick and dies from it.
