In the Holidays

In the Holidays mum  invited some of my cousin’s over to my house because it was boring with just my brother and I. On Sunday we had to go out of the house so we decided to go Butterfly Creek.

Next when we arrived at Butterfly Creek I heard the dinosaurs roared and roared and it gave me a fright. I held on the dinosaurs tail then I whacked it. 

Then we had a little look around the place and that. One of the things that I saw was golf. There were not that many people that played golf, maybe because it is expensive for them.

When we completed all the stuff that we have been to we went into this dark place that was the kiwis. It was very amazing to see the kiwis there and that may first time seeing the kiwis.

After that trip we were all starving so we had something to eat. Just after we ate we went to the Sky Tower. The best thing that when my mum told me that we were going all the way up to level 60. We saw the world. All the people and cars looked like ants from up there. Also we saw the harbor bridge from all the way from up there. That was so cool !  Then we took photos everywhere we go.   

Finally we got home and all of us fleet exhausted from all that trip and walking to places.

I fleet amazing because that was the time that we all get together and play. That was the best day of my life. I wish it will happen again in my life.

Basic Facts

This week I have been doing prototec. Prototec is an app that you can go onto learn maths and other things as well. I got 82% on stage 6 timed. I got somethings wrong too. You can have a look at it.

 

Buddhist Temple

Last week Thursday room’s 6,7,11 and 10  had to visit the Buddhist Temple.
We were ready in the bus  just before the bell rang. When the bell rang
first one of the teachers checked that we were all there.

First when we arrived  we line up behind the lady that was holding a
sign that said number three. Also the other class’s was all so behind
a lady too. One of the parents came with us to the buddhist temple.

Next they took us inside to have a look. The first thing that that
showed us that's their master that wrote all the stuff that was hanging
on the wall. Is was 93 years old he was still alive but, he was not in
New Zealand.

Then the lady took us to this place that had things like doing good
deeds and all those kind of things and that.

After that we had to eat. The things that we ate was brownes and
some water. Then we had to get some cookies to eat. After that we
had to go back to the line and we had to sit down for a while. When
we sat down we close our eyes and think about who are we kind to.
That was called a meditation.

Finally we had to go back on the bus and come back to school.

I felt amazing after I came I felt exhausted.  

Reading stamina

This week Room 10 was focusing at Reading Stamina. Reading stamina means reading for a extended period of time. That means reading for a very long  time. We picked a book from our reading box and all we had to do is go onto drive and go on a new document and, go on tools and you will see something like vice typing. Vico typing is like when you just say something it will come on the word that you said.

I painted a  kereru. 

Blackmores

First we have to line up to go to the hall. There was ladies giving out our food. The food was inside a box. Inside the box was cookie, a wrap , petezle also an apple too. The teacher's also had a box but, diffter things inside. The teacher's had a muffin, wrap, rice crackers and don't forget an apple as well.

Next when the whole school got our food we went and sat under the big oak tree, at the junior side of the school. we had to sit under there because, it is more shade than sitting in the sun.

Then everyone started to eat.  I saw that most people ate, there wrap last it is because they know it is delicious then the rest of the food. So many students ate most of their foodbut, not the apple. 

After that we had to go with our left over back home. We had to say thank you to the people that made the food for us. 

Lastly we had to pick up our rubbish. Then we had to go and play. 

I felt amazing how every had a lovely day at school.  

        

   

Tangram

 Today my class and I are working with tangrams. First Mrs Petersen explained what tangram meant so she said that tangram is first it is showed as a square then it was cut into seven geometric shapes. Then we tried out the wooden tangrams that was already made so we know what it looks like, also it what made from Japanese. the people that didn't know how to do it they had a turn.Next we were practicing the tangram on scrap paper we drawn the the seven geometric shapes then we cut it and we tried it to put it back to a square.

Finally we did our one on the real paper after we did it we swapped it with a buddy so people did not know my one.

I loved it because I have never did this before.
