I love peer support, it is the best and I am exited for the next lesson. Pear support is getting better each week. This time we did an very fun activity. We got tow newspaper and we had groups of 3 but my group had four people in it we where not lucky every group had to put one newspaper inf rant of the other and get to the other side of the room. My group actually one with four people. I can not believe it. After that we filled out a sheet in our group. When we finished that we had groups of 2 and we had to tie our shoe lases together and have a race. Me and my partner (علاء) won again and we started getting the hag of it and started running around. We fell sometimes but not always. I agree with Dana we should celebrate Ramadan and do some Ramadan decorations in peer support next week. I can not weight for the next peer support lesson next week

The children laughed,played, won. They had a really good time. Peer support only gets funnier. However, it is Ramadan so we should do some Ramadan decorating. Peersupport is still really interesting. Even the year 4 and 5 are having fun. I do hope we can do an activity to celebrate Ramadan though.

This week's Peer Support was good. Better than the other weeks at least. When we were doing the activities, the class became extremely noisy. Two of the groups kept saying "Oh I won he stole my idea about the newspaper" 😒 It was kind of frustrating and I was getting angry because that group kept on arguing. Peer Support does get better week by week, and I think that it will be even better next week. I agree with Dana that we should do something about Ramadan as well. I think that I can be a better leader and talk to my partner about managing the class better.🙂⭐️

Today, the first thing we did was, the news paper activity! It was so much fun, and I was paired up with Aaya. We tried to walk on it without ripping it, but we ripped it the first shuffle we did on it! Soon, it was torn in pieces, and we had to try walk/shuffle on the little pieces of newspaper. And then the paper went onto the other group's side, so Lina got us in T-R-O-U-B-L-E = TROUBLE. Then, we did the hula-hoop activity. We sure HAVE got some skill! Then, we were becoming a bit rowdy, because the other group was SO noisy! Tarek was screaming at the top of his voice, because his team was too loud! We screamed "SHUSH!!!".I think that this peer support was the funnest, although I don't know how the newspaper activity was related. We could still do some arts-crafts next time! BTW, we were amaze a bit at the way the winning group did it. They jumped, then scooted softly on the paper, to make it remain UN-ripped. I had fun today! 👍🏼 😆📖📚📰🔆💯

THIS WAS SO THE BEST Hanna

This week was WAY better than any other week! It was all basically physical and it was so much fun! First, we did the hula hoop activity, in which the whole class had to hold hands and get the hula hoop over you and to the next person without letting go of their hands! If we let go, then we had to start again. Hamza. A let go, and he was so close to the end but then we started AGAIN! We got it the second time round. Then we did the newspaper activity. I was a leader of my group, and I had Lenah (Omar's little sister) and Hamza. P in my group. It was SO HARD!!! But my excellent strategy let us win. This is what we did- We took off our shoes. Then we ripped the page into 3 bits, and the reason we took our shoes off was so the paper wouldn't rip anymore. We made a train, with me in the front, Lenah behind me, holding my hand and Hamza. P at the end, grabbing Lenah's hand. Together, we shuffled and jumped to the finish line. The other team ripped their bit into 3 but they kept their shoes on and didn't work together. They DID get to the other side of the room before us, but because we showed teamwork, Nour handed us first place anyways. Yay! :) :D I agree that Peer Support was funnier and funner. It's getting better and better! hope next week we do arts 'n' crafts to make ramadan/eid related decorations! Great job peer leaders! Especially mine, Nour and Mohamed A!

Today was really awesome 😊like last time because I first taught an activity. It was about having a piece of a newspaper and then each group has to only stay on that piece of newspaper until the end. If you touch the elephant dung (Adam came up with that) you are out but if you reach the ice cream land 😇😇(Also by Adam) you get a sniff and scratch sticker. We gave out a lot of them. The next activity was HILARIOUS😂🤣😂 watching the students try to get the hulla-hoop around them without getting the hand chain broken. We only did one half of the round because I was a bit tricky. 😕Finally we played "Night in the Museum" it is like musical statues but without music. I really like peer support now!!😃😃😃😃

Today's Peer Support was no different than others, boring, I'm a leader anyways so no fun for me:(. I guess it was okay, except just standing there, explaining stuff (also very boring) and just staring at people do stuff:\. Was pretty normal.

Home Reading Reflection Hanna

I don't know where to do this one, so I'm doing it here. My home reading has been consistent since the beginning of the term and ever since Mrs Ahmad introduced me to 'healthy choice' books, I've been reading LOADS of Sonya Hartnett, Jackie French, Enid Blyton and so on. I write them in my diary everyday and my mum signs them everyday. I really love home reading and these 'healthy' books. I'm thoroughly enjoying and completing home reading. It fits me to a T! I have no complaints, either. Home reading (for me) has been specially great. Yay! :) :D

I read a LOT. In fact my parents have taken some yucky books away from me, because I read too much! I guess that I don't really like writing the books I have read, because I read too many, and because I don't write them, and sometimes I fudge things! I know that sometimes I read a bit of junk fiction sometimes. I threw all the junk away till later. I am now reading Enid Blyton, Sonya Hornet and good authors like that. NOT Wimpy kid. 👍🏼📚📖💕💖📵💯📰📚📚📚📚

It has been another exciting week for peer support. We started the period by doing a hands on activity.What we had to do was stand in a circle and hold hands.Then one person had to start of by holding a hula hoop and trying to pass it to the next person while still holding hands together.I felt like it was lots of fun but we only managed to succeed on our 5th attempt.It was a pretty good way to start the period off.

In the next activity we were given a scenario and we had to work out what was the best possible way to handle the situation.My groups scenario said," you and your friends are walking to school,and on the way someone accidentally knocks over a bike stand.""All your friends start laughing and run away."We thought that the person should have told a teacher and not have been there friend anymore.

In the last ten minutes of the period we played a little game.We went into groups of three and we all had to stand on a newspaper.Our feet had to stay on the newspaper at all times while trying to move to a different side.None of the groups could do it!It was so hard to do it. At the end of the lesson I came up with a solution, all we had to do was crawl on the floor while keeping our feet on the paper.All in all it was a really good lesson for me.

Today is the best peer support lesson ever (even though I said that in my last reflection) but anyway, today's lesson was amazing we did walking on news paper, holding hands and passing the hola hoop to each other with out letting our hands not touch. Lastly, we we're writing a solution if some body did something bad. So that was the best peer support lesson ever!!!!!:)

(well bad luck for me 😓) although I wasn`t in the lucky group only 1 group survived its not the lucky one, its the girls team 😰 not unless my group listened to me that would happen! then, my funniest ACTIVITY EVER HAS CAME WOOHOO! 😊 its a HULA HOOP! we had to make a circle with our hands with each others, the peer leaders gave us a HULA HOOP 😇😇😇😇then with our hands closed with each other, the peer leaders gave us the holla hoop, we had to dance and give it to the next person without throwing it you can`t move but dance, don`t let go your hands or you will cheat, and if it fell then we had to start all over AGAIN! ☹! but luckily we survived the test! it didn`t fell even it was hard we maneged to do it, (well not untill my group didn`t listen to me to reach the island) I am so proud we made it! best day ever 😃😃😃😀😀(محمد )

For this weeks peer support it was incredibly fun. First thing we did was as soon as we got in we sat down, we started with an activity with a hula-hoop where we stand in a circle holding hands and try to get threw the hula-hoop without letting go of each others hands.Only a few people let go of the other persons hand. One of my favorite activity was where as a group we got on newspaper and tried to get to the other side of the classroom. The next thing we did was, we randomly got a statement and a sheet of paper with different answers on it that we had to chose for the statement given. This lesson was a really great lesson with lots of fun.

This week home reading was really frustrating because I really could not find anything exciting to read about.

Today's peer support was a blast! It was super-duper fun and we had the best activities! My favourite one is when we had to pass the hula hoop to the other student. I also liked the activity when we had pretended that the newspaper was a raft and we had to go to safety but our newspaper ripped 5 times! (I'm not joking!) But is was amazing fun!
