Puns.

This week we were learning more about puns. A pun is a play with words. My pun is the first one and my teachers pun is the second one.








Brainwashing.

Matific.

Today I did matific and I did the activity flying colours, also the matific games began today but we played the warm up games last week. I won 1000 points aswell as finishing all the games for today. I think that this game was really easy because I knew what to do. For example if it wanted me to do 4200 I would put 4 of the 1000L, 2 of the 100L and for the rest I would put nothing.

Overall I loved playing this game.

Reflection on sewing at tech.

At tech we were put into sewing. We made a tote bag.

Materials needed are.
Coloured fabric (Optional)
pencil
measuring tape
scissors
sewing kit or sewing machine

To make this we...

looked up a tote bag design, then we grabbed a piece of paper and measured the handle and the main part. After that we picked our fabric and put our measurements on it. When we did that we cut the fabric and then started sewing the parts so that we could get a tote bag. This is my tote bag that I made.

Simple machine - Mr Hendricks

Two weeks ago mr Hendricks told us that he could carry the heaviest person in the class with his thumb only. So he asked us if he we believed and some of us said yes and the others said no. Last week friday mr Hendricks came out with a plank and a wheight, he was actually going to lift the biggest person with a simple machine named lever.

Balloon volleyball.

Last week Friday we played balloon Volleyball. I was with mya and we had so much fun. the room 7 girls and boys came with us. The boys weren't allowed to come because they were being were bad.

My simple machine.

This is my simple machine. I have made a Trailer out of loom bands,tape and cardboard. My classroom and I have all made one. But we could only make these out of pulleys or wheel and axle. We are making these because we are doing an exhibition in week 6.

Fire drill.

“Fire drills” we've all heard of those. They help us prepare for when a real fire happens. Also everyone does fire drills because it’s very good to have. They hold fire drills anywhere and anyplace.

Here are some reasons why we need a fire drill. We need one because It’s better for you and your family. Also if a fire appears you won't have to worry at all because you will know what to do. Also many families in New Zealand have died because of fires happening in their house. Another reason why is because if you want you and your family to be safe then making a fire drill would come in handy.

Here are some tips on making a good fire drill. You could start by planning with your family so that they know. Then you could ask some of your neighbours if they have a fire drill and ask if you can see it. Another way is getting help from the fire fighters and see what they have to say.

some places on where you could practise your fire drill. One popular place would have to be at the one and only fire station. Another place would be at your home because since you live there you can practise and practise.

So as you can see we all need fire drills because it very very important. Make sure that you and your family plan a fire drill today.

writing is my weakness so I'm sorry if I can't explain properly.

Reading T3W2

Activity 3 You need someone to use the bubblegum machine.Create an advertisement for the job.

Activity 4 The figurative language from the text is in green on the vocab slide. Choose 1 to draw a picture to explain the literal meaning. Use the words in a sentences or explain the figurative meaning. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Don’t swallow that.

Out of the 6 activities I have chosen two. I have picked these two activities because I completed these two the fastest and I learnt some new things like what "Don't swallow that" means. And I also learnt how to make advertisement. 

Learning a maori song.

Today my class and I had maori with Ms Maude and we also learnt a new song called E Te Ariki. This is also called a himene some people may pronounce it as hi - me - ne but it is actually pronounced as Hymn. I knew the song of by heart and was I happy to harmonise with the rest of the children. It was really funny when the boys were learning their part but it was cool when we found out one of the boys could sing. I can't wait for the next maori practice because on that day we are going to learn a Karakia.

Boys helping out.

Today 15 boys helped Mr Hendricks move 5 logs so that Mr Patrick could help him put the volleyball net up. It was a little funny hearing the boy’s moaning about how heavy they were. But I bet I couldn't even lift those up. Here is a video and a picture of them moving the logs.

🤗 Pizza Winter Lunch 🤗

Today my class and I got 9 pizza's that Miss Collins bought. 3 students in my class completed the winter learning journey and I was one of them. I am happy that we one the pizza lunch and I am happy that our class could enjoy the pizza. I hope they had a great lunch.

😃 I want to thank Miss Collins for the pizza 😃

What I have learnt this week T3W2.

This week we used inequality signs <, > and = to compare fractions.

On Monday we used materials. This was easy for me because I felt like it was easier to work with and faster as well.  Also because all we had to do was put them on top of each other and see which one was bigger.

On Tuesday we used a fraction chart. This was Easy for me because we used our to fingers to measure which fraction was bigger.

Photo of fraction chart

On Wednesday we worked without the above.  We learnt a strategy which was make the denominators the same The knowledge required to solve to these problems this way is knowing all of your time tables

This was easy for me because I learnt this really fast.

Soccer Skills

Soccer is a game played by everybody in the world. You play soccer on the grass or on concret. This morning Steve (soccer coach) came to teach us some skills. here are some skills.

Skills

• Use the inside of your foot
• Stop the ball with the bottom of your foot
• Turn around so that the other person doesn't get the ball
• Use your body to stop the ball (except for your hands)
• Pass to your teammates when you're stuck
• Use the outer part of your foot so that you can dodge the other player.
• Tackle the opponent (Soccer version)
• Dribble the ball.

I used the skill dribbling because I felt like it was the easiest one. But I think the hardest one would have to be passing it to your partner if you're stuck because the player would all up in your face and stuff.

The sport that I would compare this to, would have to be touch because I like playing touch and I like playing soccer. I like how they both involve running because I really love running. And I also like how both sports can be played in the sunshine.

Friends for life.
