Matariki-Reading challenge

This is my Matariki reading challenge. This week we are doing things about Matariki because it is coming in the school holidays and we are researching and finding out facts about it. For this reading challenge, we had to do a true or false worksheet, it was called a remember recall and make inferences. I liked doing this because It was really fun and I had a lot of fun doing it alongside my friend Melissa.

Whetu Challenge - Paper Planes

Today our challenge was to design an accurate paper plane. We were given a draft piece of paper to trial and a good piece to use once we had tested the accuracy of it.

Before we started I thought this challenge was going to be a bit hard because I didn't really know how to make a paper plane at first and I was struggling for a little until someone came and helped me. In the end, I got it right and it was really good at flying.

I decided to use the design standard which is the simple design because it was the easiest for me to do since I wasn't very good at making paper planes.

The hardest part was finding the right plane for me because I didn't know how to make it so I went with the simplest design.

During our competition time, I managed to score 15 points and the tip of my plane touched the rim of the hanger.

Maths Mystery!! Wk10

This is my maths mystery for this week, I had a lot of fun doing it but on some of the slides, I got a bit confused but finished it in the end. I found out that the suspect was RUBY she stole all the kid's new pencil cases, it wasn't as hard as I thought it was once I started doing it.  I had fun doing this and Mia had to help me a little bit so thanks to her I finished it quicker.

Storyathon. Lock down experience

Here is my storyathon story about my lockdown experience I did mine about the morning walks me and my Nan would take mostly every morning. Some of it is true and some of it is made up, it is also exactly 100 words. I had to edit it down a bit because I went 35 words over but after I edited it, it still sounded just as good.

Sick Sentences!! Wk 10

Here are my Sick Sentences for this week. I tried to add as much detail as I could into my work and I think I did really well with adding detail. I liked how my sentences turned out and I'm very happy with them. I worked beside Alyssa, Taylor and Hannah getting there opinion on my sentences after I wrote them down, They said that my sentences were good and that I was ready to put them on my blog. I'm proud of my work for this week and I'm happy I got it done. 

Synthesis Eggs!!

Here is my Synthesis eggs for this week, I did it about the worlds largest Beetle. This was a very interesting thing to research about and there wasn't a lot of writing on the website but it gave me a lot of information about this specific type of beetle. This beetle was called the Titan Beetle and its very very large in size, I was surprised how big it was and I defiantly wouldn't want this on my backside when I'm walking through the bush. These beetles are found in rain forests in South America and especially in North Brazil, they are also found in a bunch of different places around America. This was amazing to read about and I'm glad I resreached it! 

Sick Sentences!!

This is my Sick sentences for this week, we did it on a Wasp and an Owl. This was fun to do because there was a lot of detail but I just couldn't think of anything at that moment. It didn't take that long for me to do because last week I took a lot of time on this, so it boosted me to work faster and harder. I think I put a lot of detail into my sentences and I like how good they turned out. I'm proud of my work and I think I made a SUPERNOVA!!

Reading challenge!!

This is my reading challenge for this week, I did it on firenadoes. This was very interesting to research on because I didn't know what firenadoes were at first. I thought that it was just a normal tornado mixing with a fire on the ground, I didn't think it would be this massive tornado OF fire. I found out quite a lot about this topic and it loved reading about it. One of the most interesting things I read about it is that a little after the Great Kanto Earthquake happened in Japan a huge firestorm created a massive firewhirl that killed 38,000 people in Tokyo in about 15minutes. This was fun to read and research about!

Tennis Ball Tower Challenge

Today for our Whetu Challenge we worked in a group to build a tower out of newspaper, 2 straws and sellotape. We needed to make our tower strong enough to hold a tennis ball and be able to stand alone (not leaning on anything or needing support).

Today I worked with Jessica and Maitearoha, We worked really well together.

At first, we had trouble trying to get the tower sturdy and strong. And then we got it strong enough to where it could stand on its own with the ball in the middle.

The easiest thing was Putting the ball in the middle of our tower but the only thing is that it was hard to stand on its own with the ball.

The best part of our tower was that it was pretty tall and sturdy in the end. It was 73cm tall. Also when it stood on its own for the first time.

Our tower looked AMAZING and we worked really hard on it.

In the end, It looked amazing and turned out great!

Wk 8 Blog challenge. Meet my pet!

This is my blog challenge for this week. For my Pet, I did shadow because I thought she would be the easiest, and she was. She is now 1 year and 19 days old and really really big and heavy. I love her a lot and she also loves me and goes crazy when I come home, she will jump all over me and lick me. She loves people and when we put her outside she will cry until we let her back in and will cuddle us on the ground or on the couch. She needs a lot of training though because she sometimes tries to bite or attack people that she doesn't know or that are strangers. When she goes for walks she pulls but then Mum will pull her back and growl her.

Sick Sentences!!!!!

This is my sick sentences for this week writing challenge. I enjoyed doing this because I liked re-writing the sentences that were a bit bland and boring, I think I re-created them pretty well and like how they turned out! I think I made a SUPERNOVA because I worked really hard and it took a while for me to think of the sentences.
