One place where rules are important are in the games that we play. So we are going to create a game with rules in order so everyone can play the game fairly. It's also important that the rules are clear so that there is no arguments over what other people may think it means. Here is an example of the game Mr.Clark made and the rules to follow when playing it. If you enjoy playing it in class, maybe you might like to play it at home with a family member or friend. Mr. Clark’s 'Virtue Marae' game rules.
-All players start at ‘Timatanga’ (start). -Each person has one roll for their turn but if they roll a 6 they get another turn. -Players can go any direction but must travel the dice number in one direction only (ie. if you roll a 6 you can’t go right 4 and then left 2). -The idea of the game is to collect 5 values and then go out to the ‘Whakaoti’ (finish line). -If you land on top of another player (ie. they are 5 squares away and you roll a 5) they must go back to ‘Timatanga’. -The first person to ‘Whakaoti’ with 5 values wins.

In this class we looked at the communities we are involved in and what rules and laws happened in those places. We also looked at why those rules were important. After watching the video things to think about were. -What were the main problems in this video? -Did moving to a place with no rules solve the problems at the beginning? -Who had the most fair rules and why do you think they were fair? -Which place would you rather live in and why? In our first week we watched a video about emotional intelligence and how certain emotions are like a monster that takes control of our body/mind. We talked about what we can do when we feel our emotions building and how we each have our own ways to calm those emotions when they get too big. This was the video that went with our discussion.

We have been learning about what a Treaty is and about the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi which are Partnership, Protection, and Participation. Then we created our own treaty about these principles which has given us a good standing of a classroom that supports the 3 P's. We also put our hand prints on the treaty as a signature of our agreement.
