Today a person that works for Attitude called Tamatia came to our school. First he started talking about some funny stories from when he was a kid and then he talked about a embarrassing story from when he was a kid, which was funny because he had needed to go toilet but his teacher hadn´t let him go to the toilet because he had been chatting through assembly, so then he peed his pants, one of his friends saw that he had peed his pants and had yelled out Tamatia peed his pants! which made him more embarrassed because everyone was looking at him.
After that he talked about 4 different categories of personality. The first one was an Otter, If you are an Otter you are a person that is always doing funny things and is kind of like a class clown. Next is a Lion, If you are a Lion you are very good at leading the way. Next was a Golden retriever, If you were a golden retriever you were very kind and always put others before yourself. I thought I am half Otter and half Golden retriever
While he was talking about the different personalities he talked about some other funny stories one of them was about his friend. His principal had said they were going to have a friday funday, and said that they had to bring their togs. For the funday he brought firemen to Tamatiaś school and the firemen started spraying all the kids, but they had to stand quite far back because the hoses were so strong. But then Tamatia´s friend ran in front of the hoses. When he ran in front of the first it was so strong that it pushed him over. Tamatia came to his house a while later and his friend had a massive bruise because of the hose.
I had a really fun time and Tamatia was so funny.
How wonderful to be given the tools to explore how your personality and preferences have an impact on your learning. I also find it interesting how we imbue (I love that word) animals with different personalities.
ReplyDeleteDo you think now that you have decided what animals best represent you that this will help you with your learning?
