This week for Play, Make, Create I worked on my own. I did a design and it was a map the treasure at the end was a wishing rainbow and it was a collage I think it worked well. The map was also scrunched up. The book was called Rain before Rainbow. There wasn't really anything Challenging but I am prowd of what I have done and it was fun!
This week for Whetu Challenge I worked with Darius, Marley, and Shirley. The hardest part was to roll the newspaper skinny enough but everything else was pretty easy. In the end, it did not stand. Making a bass meant we could make our tower taller. It was fun!

This week for Play, Make, Create the book was Theodore the Unsure by Pip Smith. I worked with Ben we did a build our supplies were tarpaulin, battens, the big clumps of wood, and the wooden tiles. we made a castle with a swimming pool and a paintball field! The tarpaulin was used for the pool and the roof, the battens were used to hold down the tarpaulin and it was for the structure, the clumps of wood were also used for the structure and the wooden tiles were under the structure.

This week for play make create I did build I worked with Ganidu, Ben, and Lara. Ganidu, Ben, and I a an obstacle course and a little cabin and deek/Stadium. We made everything out of the battens. The title the book was I'm Sticking with you. I was surprised that the clumps of wood held up the long batttens. This is the first time I have used the battens. If I could change the colour I would.

During Term 1 we have been practicing our addition and subtraction knowledge through the online programme called NumBots. At the start, it was super easy but progressively got more challenging.
I am now on the silver level of NumBots.
I enjoy NumBots because as I progressed it got much more challenging, and it has really helped in my learning.
What I find challenging is some of the addition and subtraction equations were quite challenging but once I got the hang of everything it got much easier.
This week we have started TTRockstars. This is an online program which helps us to learn our timetables. At first, we had to do 10 studio games and the times tables were up to 12x12 which was quite hard because it mean't that I would go down some seconds I ended up going down 40.
I think that TTRockstars will be fun because it's been a while since I've done it, and it will be challenging to get my speed backup.

This week for Play Make Create we read Up The Creek the characters were a Moose a Bear and a Beaver they were friends but they often argued about everything until the day they had to work together to get back home.
I worked with Cullen, We made another way of transport for the Moose, the Bear, and the Beaver so we made mech with swords to cut rocks and grass and other things like that. There was a little cab that they all sat in it. Cullen and I drew their heads and hot glued them on bubble wrap and put cellophane over top. the swords were stuck on by magnets so they could be adjusted.
The magnets work well and the communication between us. I would have liked to add some colour but if we started it we wouldn't have finished in time.
