Waitangi

On Monday the 18th, Whaea Kerry and Whaea Monika came to our school, so we could learn that everyone is important also learnt to make the trees on Tinkercad because our class name is Te Ngahere (The bush). Next Whaea Kerry and Whaea Monika made a waka (for people that we made). So we all could fit everybody on the waka. We had to work as a team to pull the waka. Once we paddled to shore as a ropu we helped each other carry the waka onto land. My trees were made from paint 3d. We also made some animals to go into Te Ngahere, as we made a video with all of the things that we created. We added more things to our video. Such as Birds and Insects, Whaea Kerry will add our new ideas to the video and then they will come back to school to show us the whole movie that our whole class created.

Geometry

In Te Maunga we have been about Geometry. We have been learning about lots of different shapes that we haven’t learnt about like we the angle and all the edges some of the 2d shapes where easy and the 3d shapes but I didn't realize the a circle had 1 side I thought a circle had no sides then I realized it had one side. Geometry was really fun wish we could do Geometry next year also what I found easy was trying to find out how many angles, edges,corners and faces

Pet Day

Last week in Te Maunga it was pet day. We made vaseline saucer’s and we also made cookies. Then we went outside to go see the pets. First we saw the dogs,cats, hamsters, guinea pigs and rabbits. It was really hot outside but after seeing all the animals we had a sausage sizzle, with some juicy’s and some cakes. The juicy’s were, so refreshing and cold. Pet day was fun and YUM!!!.

Procedural Writng

In Te Maunga we have been doing Procedural Writing text we are also trying to make our own writing even better we made a procedure about Flubber, Pikelets, Games and also Beeswax Wraps. It was fun seeing the our fabric go into the beeswax because before we started to put our wraps into the beeswax we had to draw something about keeping the world clean.

Flubber

In Te Maunga we made Flubber. We used Borax, PVA glue,Warm Water,Food coloring. The Equipment was measuring cup,measuring spoons,Big Spoon.Not sure what the rest was, also when we made the flubber it didn't work because we put too much water into the flubber so that is why the flubber didn't work.

Math Goals

This term in Te Maunga we have been doing our maths goals, on a google drawings and also the reason why I chose these goals, because I still need to learn them, so I know when I get tested on my maths test. We have also been doing a math Chase, our maths chase is when you do the Chase and math problems but the problems get harder each time when you move on. Also we made nets into 3d shapes also when Mrs Pou prints our maths goals she puts them on the wall. They look so cool when there on the wall. The maths that we have been doing this term has been really fun.

Fitness

Harlem 20/6/18 At Paihia School, All the classes now do fitness every day but we don’t do fitness on Monday we do fitness to get our, Heart beating for the day. Also we all have to do different activities every day and the activities are hurdles, jump jam,races, skipping and the last one was a Work Out also. My favorite activity was jump jam. The hardest activities was the races it was hard to keep up with everyone but no one gave up also we do rotations every day so we can to do something different. I also think that fitness is a good thing for your health and for your heart.
