Send A Cow Video

For reading we have been learning about Send a cow. Tamani, Josiah and I have made an I movie to display our learning. Hope you like it.

Challenging Top of the Team

Today we had a fun program. The program was called Top Team, there were two wet events and the rest were non wet. Before we started Top Team we had to get into groups to do the activities, my group was Kade, Mediana, Summer, Lily and I.


The first activity that my group done was the Conveyor Belt. For the Conveyor Belt you had to put one part on your head and the other part on the ground to stand on, I have to say the other group was pretty good. Our last two activities were the wet ones.


My favorite activity was the first wet one when you had to cover the holes so that the water wouldn't tip out and two people would go and fill the cone up so that they could tip water in the pipe, the game was called Burst pipe.


Overall, I think that Top Team was spectacular because we had a fun time and we got to do cool activities.

The other thing that we had to do for reading was to make a healthy lunches shopping list. This is my shopping list. Hope you enjoy.

    For Reading this week we had to had to make a healthy lunches poster because we believe that kids should have healthy lunches. It made me think " Yes kids should have healthy lunches" Hope you enjoy.

The Spectacular Stick

Spectacular Stick

Since the start of the term we have been learning about persuasive writing. This week we were trying to persuade people to buy a stick, I know you think it's goofy but hey it's worth a shot. I hope you like my writing and comment on it. I learn't about the things you need in a persuasive writing, for example you need an opinion, an ending statement and three reasons.

Are you looking for that final touch? That perfect gift or even a friend? Then buy this sticktastic, one of a kind stick. You can use it as Harry Potter's new wand, walking stick or a lightsabre. This stick is made out of 99% real wood with 1% brain power. Did you know that a stick can be a helpful tool, could save you and you can use them as chopsticks? They are three reasons that you should buy a sticktastic buddy.

Did you know that if you buy a stick then they can help you? They can help you if you're old because it can your walking stick. Another way that it can help you is because if you are in a comfortable position and you want to change the channel then you could pick up your stick and press the buttons. It can be your own channel changer.

Another reason why I think you should get a sticktastic buddy is because they can save you like a superhero going to kick butt. One way that a stick can save you is if you are in a battle it can pretend to be a lightsabre. Another way that it can save you is if you are old then it could save you from falling.

The last reason that you should buy this one of a kind stick is because you can use them as chopsticks. One way that you could use them as chopsticks is you get two sticks and them just pick your food up and it’s better to use sticks because, 1. It’s not plastic so it won’t break easily, 2. You won’t have to waste money and 3. They’re easier to hold. Imagine how you can eat sushi with them easier.

What are you waiting for, go get your stick from the closest forest and look after it because it will help you, save you and you can use them as chopsticks. No trees were harmed in the making of this stick.      

Another Symmetrical Picture

Today we had to do the three tasks just like yesterday. The bottom picture is my prototype and the top one is my actual picture. This is my display.

Christmas Lights

After we had finished our three tasks we got to pick a game to play. I picked the christmas lights one because I thought that it looked challenging. The aim of the game is to get all of the lights up all at the same time, on the side it showed how many turns you've had. I had 75. This is the picture.

History about Christmas in USA

Today we had to pick a history topic. I picked history around the world and then we had to pick a country so I picked USA. One fact about Christmas in USA are there customs are similar to UK, France, Italy, The Netherlands, Poland and Mexico. he traditional meal for Western European families is turkey or ham with cranberry sauce. Families from Eastern European origins favour turkey with trimmings.

Christmas In Te Reo

For reading we have been learning about Christmas and the Maori names to translate. This is the picture of the Maori names and the English names. The English is under Brief Description and the Maori is under Kupu.

Symmetrical picture

For maths we have been learning about geometry. For geometry we had to go onto our senior syndicate learning site and find the place where you can make pictures like this. I had chosen six lines of reflection. We were doing this because the South Hornby Choir were going to the Airport to perform. I hope you enjoy this and post some comments.

Change The Uniform

For writing we have been about persuasive writing and persuasive vocab. This is my writing about why we should not have school uniform.

Change The Uniform

Wearing a school uniform is a waste of money so we should get to pick our own clothes. If we pick our own clothes then we won’t have to go through all of the stress with finding a uniform.

Firstly, I think that we should pick our own clothes because there will be no stress with looking for a uniform, if you wear whatever you want then it will be easier to find clothes and you won’t get angry if you can’t find your uniform.m

Secondly, I think you should wear whatever you want is because it’s free to choose your own clothes and you can just pick anything out, also if you choose whatever you want then you could wear more layers to keep warm.

Lastly, I think that you should wear whatever you want is because you don’t have to waste money. If you wear whatever then no money will go down the drain, also it’s cheaper to buy normal clothes than uniform.

Overall I think that we should wear whatever we want because you don’t have to struggle looking for your uniform, you will be free to choose whatever and you won’t have to waste money.

Facts about the Sun, Earth and Moon

For Science we have been learning about how the Sun, Earth and Moon orbit in a system. I learnt that the sun spins slowly and gives light and warmth to it's planets, the earth spins around the sun taking 365 days, it also takes 24 hours to do one spin and it wobbles for seasons and the moon orbits the earth taking 27.5 days and it faces the same way.
