My NZ Journey

Hey Bloggers, I'm back with my learning. At the the start of Term 4, we started this maths slide show where we had to travel from the bottom of the NZ South Island up to the North Island. We had to calculate how much the hotels were, the car rent, the petrol and the activities. One of the hard parts were that everyday there is a $500 dollar budget. Here is my slide show.

I think that this slide show was really hard because everyday you have to spend $500 or under. Another reason this was hard was because it was hard to count up the petrol costs. My total cost was $5098. I did go over budget with some days. One of my favourite places were going to Auckland because there were a lot of activities to pick out. One of the activities that I really wanted to do but I couldn't because of how much it costed was bungy jumping.  I learnt that it can be hard to go on a trip around New Zealand because it costs too much money. Hope you liked my slide show. Blog you later.

Jonty and Choc - Book review

Hey Bloggers, I'm back with my learning. Last week, all of the Senior Syndicate started a book review on a novel. I had been given a really good story named Jonty and Choc written by Vince Ford. We were asked  fill in the stuff in a Slideshow that we made a copy of. After reading your book you could start doing the slides.  I have finished reading my book but not  finished my slideshow yet, but I would like you to see one of my slides that I have finished which is the plot or story line. Here it is. 

 This was pretty easy to do because I could understand the story really well. One day you have to read Jonty and Choc because it's a really good story full of drama.  Maybe you could do a book review on a book that you liked. I hope you liked my work. Blog you later!

Our Dance!

Hey bloggers. I'm back with my learning.  At the start of term three we did a dance Competition where we had to get in to groups of 6 or 7 and choreograph a dance with some music that had been to given by our teacher. Here is a video of our dance.

I think that the dance was hard to choreograph but doing it is easy. We got a along very well when we were practising. We practised 2 times a week so we know it well. Feel free to comment. Blog you later.

Cross Country!

Hey Bloggers, I'm back with learning. This week was Cross Country and it was really really fun but tiring.  At first I didn't want run and also I was really nervous. Well we were waiting for our turn to run, we were in rotations playing games and other stuff. here are some photos.

 Getting ready to run!!!!

I think that this cross country was the best. Maybe you might have a Cross Country in your school.  I felt really puffed when and tired when I finished  the race. I think that the run was a little hard but I still did my best and I was proud of myself. Feel free to comment. Blog you later!

The Magical World Of Crazy Science - Richard & Robyn

Hey bloggers. This week we had a crazy science show in the hall with Richard and Robyn. All of the school learnt a whole lot of new stuff. Did you know that fire is science too. There were lots of science and magic tricks in this show which made it even better. Maybe Richard and Robyn might come to your school to perform some magic tricks. One of the performances Richard did was when he made a little firework in our hall. The part that surprised me a lot was when he got some powder chemical  and poured some water in the cup that had the powder in it , The chemical is called polymer. Richard said that a bubble is the thinnest object in the whole world. Here are some photos.

I think that this show was the best. I learnt a whole lot of new stuff like knowing how a nappy works, when you blow on a strip of paper it lifts up instead of it going down, bubbles are the thinnest object in the world and I learnt that for a firework you need fuel heat and oxygen. I wonder  how Richard learnt all the magic tricks and where he got the science tricks from. I think I might try some of the science tricks he performed with us but with a adult. feel free to leave a comment. Blog you later.

My Couplet Poem

Hey viewers, I'm back with my learning. A few weeks ago, we were making  couplet poems that had to do with camp. I finished my poem and published it so I would like to share it with you guys. My poem is called Trouble. Here it is.

I think this was easy to do but it just took a long time. I think you should really do something like this if you're bored at home. Feel free to comment. Blog you later!

My Inquiry Animation

Hey guys, I'm back with my learning.  When the other students were getting ready for camp, Mr Riceman showed us how to do an animation on a google slide about our inquiry topic. My inquiry topic is Snow Monkeys. I think I'm really proud of myself because It has taken me 560 Slides to just make one animation. Here is my animation.

I think that this was hard to do because you had to keep on moving the image  and making a new slide. You had to use your patients to finish your animation.  You should really do this at home. Feel free to comment. Blog you later.
