Play, Make, Create week 9 2021

 This week for Play make create I worked with Ben. We got to do whatever we wanted to do about camp or make something to do. Ben and I made a zipline and a fire pit. The hardest part was to get the poles ( Iceblock sticks ) to hold them up we used ice-block and some string. The line was made with string and it kept sinking so we put some blue paper under where it was sinking so it was like when you zipped down you had to let go. The fire pit was made out of sticks and red and yellow paper. It was fun but there was nothing easy because the PVA wouldn't stick anything together so were had to what for the hot glue guns.

Maths Mystery

 For Maths Mystery I worked with Sol. We got confused on one of the clue's and we got one wrong but went and fixed it up. When we finished and crossed everyone off we found out it was Mollie.

PLAY, MAKE, CREATE week 8

 This week was the first week that I have done play, make, create. I worked alongside Lachie and Darius. I made something other animals can use to reach leaves on the top branches, I made it out of cardboard and brown paper and I used PVA to glue it down. I also made a tree I used brown paper for the trunk, leaves for the leaves and I used PVA to glue it all down. I made a sun out of yellow scrunched-up paper. And I made  part of the background with blue paper.

Here is my photo.

Week 5, Term 1, 2021

 Monday was our school Swimming Sports. On the day I felt good but as the race approached I started to feel nervous. I competed in the one and two lengths freestyle, the one and two lengths breaststroke and the one-length backstroke. I came first in the one and two-length breaststroke, I came sixth in the one-length backstroke but I don't know where I came in the one and two lengths freestyle. I am proud of myself for doing all of those events.


We had two art sessions this week and I am doing art with Mrs loft and Mrs. Heaven. I have finished my draft and I have started my good copy. Our art is like a self-portrait. The hard thing was to trace over my draft because I had to do it up against a window. I am enjoying my art so far.  


In reading this week we have started the book called The Twits. The Twits is for my homeroom book. The other book is the Magic Finger that is the book we are reading for literacy. And the book I'm reading for dear is Geronimo Stilton Hands Off Cheeder Face.


Part of our maths programme is NumBots and I am loving it, I am on Tungsten it is a type of metal. As you move up the equations get harder at the moment they aren't too hard but they definitely have got harder. I play the game at school and at home.

Whetu Challenge

 This week for Whetu Challenge we got to do whatever we wanted about caterpillars a chose to do the caterpillar house. I worked with Sol and Christian. The materials we used were sticks leafs a cardboard box and a coloured sharpie. The hardest parts were to make the tv, oven, the washing machine but above all the hardest one for me was the stick Shelter. There weren't really any easy parts to do but it was really fun. 

Here are the pictures!!!
