CC T4 Week 3 Research centre

This week for Chapter Chat I did Research centre. I did a task from last week that was researching about shoe brands because this week's tasks didn't interest me that much, I enjoyed doing this task and I could have done more brands but I didn't have that much time to research them and do my school work at the same time. I am just glad that I got it done in the nick of time. I am happy with this result and I am excited to do my Chapter Chat next week.

Building our tents

Today all the survivor troops competed in this challenge where we had to set up a tent and work as a group to get it done my group is called The Moas. The hardest part was getting the polls through the tent and getting them to stay together and not slip apart. What worked well for me was putting the pegs down in the ground and making the tent sit upright. What I learned is that you need to work in a team to get things done right and quickly.     

Our Plan for our Shelter

                   Number 1. The Tarp: We have chosen this one because it looks like it would provide lots of warmth and it seems like it has lots of room. It also looks like it’s very sturdy and that would help us survive the night. The only con is that the ropes might slip down during the night.
  

Number 2. The A-Frame Tarp Shelter: We have chosen this one because it looks like it would be simple to make and it is nice and easy and it looks like it would keep you safe from the wind and any kind of weather there is. It also looks like it would stay up through really harsh wether making the rope looking like it’s there to stay.                     A Frame

Shelter Building

Shelter Building Plan

Where is the best place to build a shelter?
The best place to build a shelter is on a flat surface that is not damp and that is preferably close to some water so you can get a drink.


What does the shelter need to protect you from?

Shelter needs to protect you from the wind, snow, rain, insects or water that is really close by. You need to protect your self from these things because it can lead to death if you get way too cold or you can starve/dehydrate.


              What materials could you use to build a shelter?
Some materials that you could use to build a perfect shelter is A tarp, Sticks, A trees and some rope, I say these things just to keep you extra safe and Warm.

What are some pros and cons of sleeping in a bush shelter?
Some Pros of sleeping in a bush shelter or camping is to keep yourself safe and dry so you keep your body heat in and you get to look up at the sky at night and see all the beautiful stars. A con with sleeping in a bush shelter is that you could get a bunch on mosquito bites and the weather could be really really bad and you could get badly sick.

CC T4 W2 Away with words

This is my Week 2 Chapter Chat, for this week I did A way with words. I really liked this task because it made me push myself to really think what Ghost would say to his grandparents about these new shoes that he wants for track. I really enjoyed it and it was super fun and I love how it turned out I really love it. I worked really hard to get this finished and I finished in time thankfully. The shoes that Ghost wanted was silver track shoes because people at his school would laugh at him because he cut down his hi-tops so he could run better in track but he didn't so he stole the shoes he wanted. I am proud of my task for this week and I am happy I got it finished.

My 2019 Calendar Art


This is my Calendar Art for 2019. I think that it turned out pretty good and I am happy with the finishing result, I really tried my best in my calendar art but it is my first one being in whetu. I really like it but next year I know I can add more detail. In my art, it shows my hair going crazy and me showing the expression like what do I do, I tried hard to get my hair perfect even though it didn't turn out as I expected I still think I did really well. I did as best as I could since it's my first year in whetu and I think I will do way better next year when I'm a year 6.

CC WK1 T4 Digital Design

This is my Chapter Chat for Week 1 of Term 4, I did Digital Design. I really enjoyed doing this task for my first week back at school and I am glad I got it finished in time, It was a little bit hard but I got it done and I am happy with it. The first card is for Coach Brody's Track team because he thinks that it is the best, They are called the Defenders, but if you join the team remember you only get one chance and you are out! The second card is for his Taxi/Cab business to say how great and pleasing his rides are, just to get people to pay him for his AMAZING rides. I loved doing this task and I am happy I got it done.

School Holiday Blog Challenge

         Blog Challenge

In the holidays I went to my Big Sisters 21st birthday party on the 5th of October, I loved it so much it was so much fun and better than I thought it would be (especially since Paige set it up herself without Mum helping her) 

After everybody arrived we had speeches The whole Family had to go up to the front of the Kerepehi Hall and Say a Speech, I didn't say anything but now that I think of it I have something to say but never mind now.

Then We Sat down with all the cousins, Auntys and Uncles before we had dinner, After dinner, we had dessert it was ice cream (that my Mum made at her work) with a bunch of toppings like Hundreds and thousands, chocolate sprinkles, nuts and marshmallows etc it was super yummy.

At the party, there was probably 200-300 people there but most of them were outside, me and my cousins had glow sticks then we went outside to give Paige and her friend some but that was ok because we had heaps of them.

we had to take photos at the photo area they had set up and we had to have a sibling photo and a bunch of separate photos aswell it was amazing.

I enjoyed myself at the party with all my cousins that I haven't seen in a long time and I hope Paige enjoyed it aswell.
