Summer Learning Journey: Build something that floats.

 Kia Ora Blogger's,

Today for SLJ task, I will be building and testing things that might or may not float. What I did first was I moved my Science experiment to the Kitchen because if I did it in my room i might get my room wet.  After I grabbed a container and filled it up with water. What I wanted to see float was a milk bottle cap, to start easy. 

Here are some photo's of the bottle cap floating:

What I did first was I took a picture of the cap facing up and then faced down.  It seems that both of them can float really good. I hope you enjoy. If you wanna have a go, watch Nanogirl link right here to learn. Have a good day Byee.

 

Summer Learning Journey: Geometree

 Kia Ora Blogger's,

Today I did another SLJ task 3. Today's task was Geometree. What me and my class did was make a triangle tree on paper. What I did first was I watched the video. Then I drew lines all over the paper, next I over lined the lines with black pen. After I coloured it in with blue,orange and green colours. If you want to have a try here is the link and have a good day bye.

Here is my Masterpiece:

Summer Learning Journey: Spread the word.

 Kia Ora Blogger's,

Today I just finished my SLJ task 2. It was called spread the word. What I did was I went around blogs and had to comment on them, take a screen shot of my comment. Copy and Paste the link of the blog. Make a screenshot of the blog and add them to my slides. What I found hard was just trying to find blogs like for an example, one of the slides told me I had to find a blog, that made me laugh. What I found easy was just taking the screenshots and adding them to my slides.  I hope you enjoyed, and have a great day. Bye.

Here are my slides:

SLJ: Make your own, Glider, Hoop and Ring Glider

 Kia Ora Blogger's,

Today for week 1 SLJ I made a glider, a hoop, and a ring glider. I used 3 different colour paper. A pencil, a ruler and some scissors. How I made this was by Nanogirl. She is a very talented scientist and very smart. My favourite one out of all 3 of them is the glider. You might heard of the glider before, because its just a paper plane. When I was making all of them the most challenging one was probably the hoop. It was challenging because there was lots of folding and it was very hard. The most easy one was probably the ring because it had the least steps and very fast.

We started our walk by going up the sand dunes to get to the Lake. It was only about 2 sand dunes up and then my Cousin, was silly because he didn't tell his mum or Dad. so he had to climb back up that Looked really hard. We finally got to the Lake and i got Changed into my togs. After getting change I jumped straight in even tho it was cold I didn't care because it was like the perfect cold.  After I went on my Cousin Body Board and I just swam around on it.

We were like there  for 4 hours.  After swimming we went down the sand dune with the body boards and we did it down and land in the water. After I had a sandwich and it was delicious. Then I went back in the water and swam around. Then after a few minutes we had to go and my cousin tried to make me go to the diving board with her but her Dad caught her and me.

Favourite part of Lockdown

  Kia Ora Blogger's,

Today I am going to be telling you my favourite part of Lockdown. My Favourite part of Lockdown is Hearing Jacinda say "we are moving to Level 3 step 2" because in Level 3 & 4 I couldn't see my Family members, and now that we are in Level 3 step 2 I can see my Family members. Now Every Friday I go to a field and see My Family and Friends and we have been playing touch, and having a BBQ but Luckily we have 25 people max. I have really enjoyed seeing my Family and Friends and get to see them and I have missed them a lot.  It's been A great time seeing them and I really enjoy playing with them, and also talking to them.  Sometimes when it's just me and my cousins playing touch all my Uncles will join. Then it will get really competitive.

Thank you so much for reading my Favourite part of Lockdown. Maybe you could share your Favourite bye.

Level 4 Lockdown

 Kia Ora Bloggers,

Today is Day 2 of Lockdown. Also on the news there have been people that  have not been following the Lockdown rules. It is very important that everyone follows the rules because you never know you could get coronavirus  and become really sick. Also there area lot of people that go to the supermarket, and maybe they think if they don't get their food now they won't be any later, well the news says that they'll will be plenty of food for everyone, just like last year was a bigger lockdown but everyone still got there groceries and other stuff.

Here are some photos.

                                                                   

                                                                        

                                                                                                                          

The Monarch Show

 Kia Ora Bloggers,

On Tuesday, We were very lucky to attend a Monarch show. The show was about Butterflies and a lady named Miss Collywood wanted to wreck Mrs Grandma butterfly building. After Lunch time in the Hay park School hall, all the classes in hay park school got to watch the Monarch show.

What happened in the show was there was this girl named Lea and she was studying butterflies for her school project. She was at her Grandma’s house and while she was at her Grandma's house her Grandma could help her with her butterfly study because her Grandma is a scientist for butterflies and she has her own building for butterflies and the building that she works in is a butterfly home.

 My favourite bit was when Lea was studying butterflies. Her grandma scientist was an owner for butterflies. This lady named Miss Collywood wanted to make a motorway right in between Mrs Grandma scientist butterfly building. Mrs Grandma scientist wouldn't let that happen to her butterflies and their home. They made a competition and they would make a vote at the court but because Mrs Collywood and Mrs Grandma scientists were busy and Lea had to go to court so her Grandma could keep their home for the butterflies. Also because Lea knew all about butterflies she could make her speech. She was shy at first but she was also brave enough to do a speech for her Grandma. After Lea did her speech the court man decided that Mrs Grandma scientist could keep her building.

Three facts about Maui

Kia Ora world of bloggers,

Three Facts about Maui

Facts:

1. Maui is a culture superhero he has superhuman strength and can shape shift into any animal with his hook.

2. Maui dream was that he would always would want to go fishing with his brothers, but his brothers would make excuses for him not to come because he is to young. Also because there wouldn't be much room because they would have to much fish on their Waka to fit Maui.

3. Maui was not allowed to go fishing with his brothers so he decided to have a plan. Maui went to go fishing and he caught a really big fish and when he came back to see his people and his people saw his fish he became one of the best fisherman's ever.

The Gold rush Trailer

 Kia Ora Bloggers,

Today I watched a trailer for a movie about a gold rush which was a silent movie. It was an activity we had to do in our class. After watching the video we have to say what we think about it. What I think about it that it was very silent it said there name's of their characters and it was in the snow only in some scene's, also other places. I bet when it was the 19's when the movie came out it was a very great silent movie to watch. Also they had a bear in it. What I didn't like about it well I didn't think it was bad for me to hate because I think it's cool. 

I hope you liked it bye.

Here is the link to watch the trailer for the gold rush  Gold rush trailer

There was another option we could do and maybe you could. Here is the link The lions cage

My holidays

Kia Ora bloggers,

Today our class and I wrote about my holidays and I went to watch Space Jam the new legacy I hope you like it.

During the holidays, my cousin’s and I went to the Movies to watch Space Jam, the new legacy.  We decided to go there in the morning so it wouldn't be so busy. How we got there was because our older cousin drove us there and she watched it too with my other cousins. When we got there we grabbed our food and while we waited for the movie to start we played at the Arcade. We played multiple games like driving games, basketball shooting, and others. We waited for nearly half an hour so we went to a waiting room. We finally got to go in and watch the movie and lebron James was in it also bugs bunny and his squad, Even lebrons James whole family was in it. The part I really enjoyed was the part when lebron James was versing the goon squad after half time and they were winning.

Bike Riding lessons.

Kia Ora Bloggers,

On Tuesday and Wednesday we had bike riding lessons. The coaches names were Lani and Josh. What we did on Tuesday we went through all of the rules, those rules were respect, listen carefully and the most rules of all things have fun. After going through the rule's we had to do a helmet check. The helmet check was if you had any cracks and if it did we had to swap our helmets, we went through some other things too. After doing our helmet check we got to pick our bikes. After picking our bikes we got to ride them, but if you didn't know how to ride a bike then you would go with Josh. Also if you knew how to ride a bike you'd had to go with Lani. Next we went to the other court and rode around the court for a bit. After riding around we all had to go on the yellow line and line up. We lined up and had to get in teams and the teams were called Red, yellow, blue and green. I was in the red team with Aarna Emrico and Kennedy. We played different games like you'd have to stop and look both ways and then turn either left or right. Also there were some other games. My team won those games so we got free time before packing up. 

On Wednesday we kinda did the same things but shorter liked picked our bikes, get our helmets and some more other things. We played new games but with bean bags and other games. 

Here are some photos.

Adsett Class Won Subway.

 Kia Ora Bloggers,

Today Adsett class ate subways today! How we won subway was we did this survey about our neighbour hood and it asked you some questions and if you could wish anything for your neighbour's.

My Unbelievable Amazing Animation

 Hi Blogger's,

Today I made a Animation of a boat. I was just wondering if you guys would like to give me feedback so I can improve? 

Here is a good tip instead of always redoing your background you can press on your Ctrl D to duplicate your slide instead of just copying the same thing every time. 

My Origami swan and Heart.

Hi bloggers, 

Today I made a Origami Swan.

The Origami swan was a bit hard but it turned out really good. The first part was really easy because you were only folding the paper 2 times. I made the swan by watching a video and it was a really good video because it told me all the fold's I needed to do.

Here is a Photo

My Origami Heart 

The origami Heart was actually really easy because it wasn't that long and it was really simple. My origami heart turned out really good because I added tape at the back, also it could be where you could put little pieces of your own note's.

Mila's one touched the ceiling which mean she Won. Then they did another round but this one was different and they did it like, they had to do it all different sizes, like Elijah and Jeziah had to do it really big, Ahmed and lovely had to do it medium, Martha and Mila's size were small. 

Next they had to blow there balloon and they all let go and we counted down and lovely's nearly touched the ceiling but Elijah balloon did. Then we carried on with our wonder project lesson and we went back to all of the rules before launching our rockets.

Wonder project- Lesson 4 Making Rockets

 Hi blogger's,

Last week we had another Wonder Project session with My class Room 9,8 also Colm our ambassador. Today we learned Newton's second Law of motion. Newton's second law was F = M A and there is a meaning for each letter, The F stands for Force,  M means mass of an Object and A means acceleration. Then Colm showed us a big paper plane and a small one and he said the bigger the paper and the smaller the paper plane the farther it would go. Next Colm gave us A-4 papers to make paper air planes. While we were making our paper planes we got to have a little play to see how long it would be and Mayank, Arav and Emanuel got to test paper planes that Colm had made.

Then we went back to the mat and Four people got to show us far there paper planes would go and that was Mehdi, Emrico, Savannah's and Lanisi. There one was really cool because they went very far and Mehdi's went high, Emrico's went far  Lanisi's went far and Savannah's it didn't go quite far because she had to layers and the second it would like take the air and stop it form going forward. We went back to class and started to make our Rockets the people in my group was Asmah, Aice, Flo and Emrico, But Aice and Flo weren't there. We made our rocket and it looked really cool with the design also the fins and the everything.

The zoo Trip.

Hi blogger's,

On Wednesday the seniors at Hay Park School went to the zoo. First we all saw what group we were in and my Aunty came as a parent helper and in my group was Aice, Loiloi and Lovely. Then we watched a clip of all the rules of what we had to do at the zoo. Next we went to the bus and the bus was awesome because it had seat belts and it also had blue lights and I liked that bus. Then we got there and there was a zoo keeper named Lizzy and she told us all of the rules for extra. Then she took us to our spot where we will be hanging out for the day. We she finished my group went to go see some animals and the first animal we saw was a Red Panda and there was 2 I think and they were climbing in the tree. The next one we saw was a Orangutan and it was climbing on the towers and we took pictures. After seeing that we went to play at the playground and me and Loiloi went down the slide and I went on one slide and she went on the other and we went down on the same time. Then we had some food and I had chips and I shared with Loiloi.

Next we went to the to the Australia bush walk and we saw Emu's because the wallabies weren't there and  we saw a Red-Tailed black cocktail and there were 2. Then we saw fishes swimming in a tank. Then we went to the South America rain forest track and we saw big giant tortoises and we went in the lizard lane. Then we saw this question on the Lizard container and it said could you stand still as long as a lizard and I said 'No' because I could never do that. Then we had to go back to our spot to wait for Lizzy so she could take us to the Africa safari track and my group got there first and we were waiting for ages and while waiting we had a snack to eat. Then Lizzy came and we went to the Africa safari track and we saw giraffes, Zebras and Ostrichs. Next Lizzy showed us Giraffe skin and their teeth, also there poo. Next we went to go see the Meerkats and there was a tunnel and everyone in room six went in there. Then we saw a Rhino and there was only one. After we saw a water buck and a Nyala and there was one each and they were cool. Then we saw the Lions but sadly they had died because they were both 17 years old and lions eldest year is 15 so sadly both of the lions have died. 

After we saw the Elephants and they were both inside because all there trees have been cut down and they have to move where there is more elephants at another zoo. Then we saw the cheetahs and they were both lying down. Then we saw the baboons and there was a cute baby one. Then Lizzy told us that she was gonna feed the Spider Monkeys and they were climbing every where and it was awesome. Next we went to the playground for a bit because it was nearly time to go back to school and then we all went bathroom before we went back and we had to leave the zoo and I said good bye to the animals and that was my day at the zoo.

 

The Wonder Project - Lesson 3

Hi Bloggers, 

On Tuesday we had another Wonder Project Lesson and it was lesson 3. This one was different to the one we did last week because Colm our ambassador showed us a 1.5 litre bottle with water. We had a empty bottle. A bottle that has half water in it, and a bottle that had full water in it. Colm showed us what was the meaning of that activity and he had a sheet underneath those bottles and what he did next was was he pulled the sheet and all of the bottle didn't fall because he said if you pull it really fast then none of them would fall. Then some other kids got to have a try and some of them got it right and some only knocked down one.

Next we went in our group and the people that where in our group was Flo, Asmah, Aice, Emrico and we had to grab a whiteboard and a whiteboard maker and we had to draw a rocket and ours were pretty good then we went to the 1.5 litre bottles and I had a turn pulling the sheet and only one went down. Then we went back to the floor and the teachers took pictures of the drawings we draw. Then we went back to class and our teacher gave us a plain paper of a rocket on it and we had to design it and when we had finished we would go back to our groups had to pick the best design and we picked Emricos but Aice added a window in the middle and that was our lesson 3.

The Wonder Project- Test Launch

Hello Blogger's,

This week, for The Wonder Project, we looked at Health & safety Also we had a test Launch. We went to Keith Hay Park for our test run. What we needed for our test run was a 1.5 litre bottle & fins for the sides.  Keti & Justin,  got to launch the rocket with Cole and Cole is a scientist and we were so lucky that he took the time to do the Wonder Project with us. When we got to Keith Hay park Keti & Justin & Cole settled  up for there first launch and we were all it was cheering and off it went and it went high and it was  Awesome.

 For our Health & Safety we watched a video from Rocket lab and it told us things that we needed to know for launching our rocket and our PSI limit was 60 and PSI stands for pound per square inch. We needed a air pump for it to go up and our PSI was 60 and 200 ml of water inside and the more the water that will be inside the lower it would be like it won't go that high because there is a lot water.

 For the weather it is suppose to be a clear day so you aren't suppose to do it in the rain or in the wind or both because it can be really hard to launch because if the wind was going the side where you will launch it would be fine because it will just go the way you are launching, if you are launching the opposite way the wind is then it could hit you because if the wind was going to the right and you were launching to the left then it would go back because it's following the wind.                                                                                                                                           

                                                                                                                                

Food for thought

 Hi blogger's,

Last week my class and I had a Food for thought session by Isabel from the heart foundation company. We did activities in our first session like labelling food that goes in milk and milk products and vegetables and fruit, And a long section that was Sea food, Chicken, Fish, Eggs, Nuts, Seeds, Beans, also a section for Breads & Cereals , also they were everyday foods. Then she told us about things that are sometimes foods,  sometimes food are foods that have sugar so anything that has sugar it would be sometimes food.Then we had to do this activity and that activity was having random foods and we had the same section's like milk and mcilk products, fruits & vegetables,  Sea food, Chicken, Fish, Eggs, Nuts, Seeds, Beans, Breads & cereals and sometimes section and we had to put the food in that section like if we picked up a food we would put it in the fruits & vegetables section.

On the second session we did this activities with drinks that were  unhealthy and we had to guess it by the healthiest to the unhealthy drink and then when we finished our own Isabel actually showed us correctly but we got to guess with her to. We also figured out how many sugar each cereal has and the cereal's we did was, Coco pops, weet-bix, cornflakes, and we each had numbers and when she would call out our numbers we would tell her how much sugar was in that cereal.
