A river being a person! WHAT??!

 

Hi everyone,

About a week ago we went to the wild lab and learned about the mayfly did you know that they are nearly endangered. So a couple of days ago we made possessive arguments about why the Wimata River should be a person. I enjoyed sharing my thoughts and writing what I think.

Vege car

 

Hi everyone, 

In the past week, we have been reading about a vege car this is my question mark which tells you about the story I learned that a car can run on biofuel and fish and chips oil. I enjoyed learning about this subject because it gave us a hint on what we are going to be doing with the bottles Mrs Hall is telling us to bring into class. 

What are Tawhirimatea's Favourite Pets

Hi everyone,

Yesterday we went around and asked the class what pet they liked the most the options were Dog, Cat, Rabbit, or Horse then we got our results and put them in a graph to show the data. I learned that we can make different colored bars in our graph and that most of the class love dogs.  

What's my score?

  

Hi everyone,

Today we did our first math grid of term 2. Guess what I got... 84 I don't think that is that bad. I want to improve my math score, to do that I am going to use my old math book to do my own grids so that I can practice. I am also going to get my mum to get me a times tables sheet that I can put on my bedroom wall.  

Leaf Learning Maps

 Hi everyone,

On Wednesday we made these if you look down on my blog you will see my other one called leaf goals. Cass helped me and it was pretty easy and it didn't take long at all. What I enjoyed was working with Cass even tho we mostly do everything together. What I found challenging was drawing the leaf with polyline so Cass did it in the end. What I learned is I am bad at using a polyline.  

Stability Test

    
 Hi everyone,

A couple of days ago we did a stability test and that means we tested our rockets to see if they are stable to do that we well you will find out from this. What I enjoyed was making this. What I found challenging was thincking for words.  

Five stars

 Hi everyone,

We are Five Stars and this is our slide it has a record of all our launches and most of the stuff we do. When we have a launch it gets recorded here so we can reflect and find out how we can make our rocket better. What I enjoyed was launching it and getting sprayed in water by the rocket. What I found annoying was a couple of fins came off. What I learned was even if you have a bad start it will get so much better if you have a good attitude.        

Rocket Lab Morals

 Hi everyone, 

For Ted Lab this week we had to find Morals that rocket lab uses and this is one, Attention to Detail is Vital in Writing Software read it on the photo▲. What I enjoyed was writing about our morals and choosing the background. What I found challenging was choosing good words to say. What I learned was Rocket Lab is epic!              

Safety Poster

 

Hi everyone,

For Ted Lab, we had to make a safety poster so we can all stay safe when launching rockets

Noah and Zion made it but the only reason they got it dun was that we made them be silent and they could only talk to Eilidh about what they were meant to do. What I enjoyed was telling the boys to be quiet. What I found challenging was well nothing because the boys did it. What I learned was a plastic bottle can be dangerous in wase.            

Business and ID Cards

 Hi everyone,
a couple of weeks back made business cards and ID cards for Ted Lab and by the way, the top is my id and the bottom is the business card for our group so that's why it has a couple of names on it. What I enjoyed was the Id card. What I struggled with was getting everything the right size so it could be printed. What I learned was BG background remover is a big help.       

Making Rockets

Hi everyone,
For Ted Lab this week we are making ROCKETS how awesome is that! Our rocket has 3 fins and a nose cone that come off. We made our rockets out of old 2-liter bottles and the nose cone is attached to the lid and that means when we take off the lid it takes of the nose cone too. What I enjoyed was designing the rockets and using the hot glue guns. What I found challenging was trying not to burn my self with the hot glue. I can't wait to show you our next rocket 😀❤

Injured sister

Hi everyone, 

2 days ago my sister holly jumped onto her bed and hurt her shoulder she was very upset because she couldn't do her pullups and her 5/10 k bike ride. Today we went to the physio and holly got acupuncture in her shoulder and it took all the pain away but she nearly fainted and went very pale that because she doesn't do well with needles.      

Time to Learn How to Use an Ax

Yesterday my dad was teaching me how to use an ax and I was very bad at it. What I enjoyed was being really happy when I hit it on the first try. What I didn't like was not hitting it and failing miserably. What I learned well... I learned how to use an ax.   

Letter to Danielle

 Hi everyone,
Today we had to write a letter to the wonder list Ambassador I bet most of you will be thinking what in the world is that and to be honest with you I don't know either. I've never heard of one before this day and I think it is complicated well let's get on with it, shall we? What  I enjoyed was realizing I am very lucky because most of the things I have most other kids don't even get a chance to even talk about them. What I found hard was trying to get it down in time but it turns out I still have a lot of time left. What I learned was that I need to be grateful for what I have and not be whining about what I haven't got. Remember to be grateful.     

Goals

Hi everyone,
Every week we do goals of the week and one person from our class chooses a quote and we all reflect on it. What I enjoy was the excitement of waiting to find out what the quote is for the week. What I find hard was thinking about how to explain the quote. What I learned was that you have to reflect and base it on you.     

Puppy Jumps

Hi everyone,
I bet your all wondering what this is, well my dog Jake has got so much energy and we need to tier him out so we made him some jumps and my sister made a video of him jumping and playing he is crazy most of the time but is relaxing after a hards day of jumping. He is only 11 months old and still, a puppy so is very excited and playful. Jake is like a little brother to Holly and me the whole family loves him and we think he loves us too.   

New Pony Sold Pony

Hi everyone,

About a month ago my sister put my pony on trade me because I kept getting throne of and I was to scared to ride him his name is ricky and is getting dropped of tomorrow at his new home he is going back to hawks bay were lots of people know him because we bort him originally from there. My sister wanted a new horse and I thought Mum and Dad were going to say no but they said sell Ricky and then you can get another one. He was sold last week to a nice lady  and she is eager to get him to hawkes bay but her trucking company said they cant at the moment not until level 2 so we are doing it. As soon as ricky was sold holly was online looking for horses and then she sore Jasper well at the time his name was turbo but she didn't like that name it didn't matter because he is still a baby and has probably never seen a saddle before so Holly is going to break him in he came last night at 6:30 pm and we were eating dessert.         

THIS IS RICKY

Paper Plane Project

Hi everyone,
Last week we had a challenge where we had to make a paper plane and fly it, but there was a twist, we had to attach a rubber band to it and stretch to different lengths and measure the distance it flew. At the start I did not want to do it so much that I did not tell my parents about it but on sunday night well...we spent about two hours making, and flying paper planes and measuring distances they flew. By the way we did it wrong so had to do it all again on monday morning before our school call. What I enjoyed was well everything after I got over my bad attitude. What I found challenging was filing out forms and recording data.

Pulled to 15 cm

Zeroing the rubber band

Busted nose!
