The truth about honesty

Recently one of my tasks in class was to do a activity on the truth of honesty. There were different scenarios and I had to write what I would do in that situation. Here was the activity. 

Huia Timeline

 This week during lock down I have been learning about Huias. This research was very interesting and I learnt heaps about them! Here is my timeline.

Limerick

 In my class we have been learning how to write limerick poems. At first I found this really challenging but then I kinda got the hang of it. In a limerick poem it has 5 lines. Line 1,2 and 5 have 7-10 syllables and line 3 and 4 should have 5-7 syllables. The first line of a limerick poem usually is "There once was a". Also in a limerick poem the first 2 lines rhyme an then the two after that need to be quite random and they need to rhyme with each other. then the last line needs to rhyme with the first line.

Book week

 This week at my school we had book week. Book week is a fun week where 5 golden tickets are hidden around the school and in the library there is a jar full of gummy worms and you can guess how many there are. Today was book character day which is when everybody dresses up as a character from a book. Me and my friends did a Alice in Wonderland theme costumes. I was Alice. This week we also had wacky waka Wednesday. For wacky waka Wednesday you dress up in your wackiest outfit but you have to dress in your waka colour. Mine is yellow. On Tuesday Mrs Costello the school librarian did a book giveaway and you could go to the library and get as many books as you wanted. Also as a part of the book week tradition you and your class have to create a cool designed door. Our theme was Peter Pan. After the doors are all finished they get judged. My classes door display won second place for team b. Here are some pictures. 

Hanmer Camp

 Recently I went on school camp to hanmer. We did fun activities such as Tree climbing,Mountain biking,Going to the hot pools and Orienteering. Here is a video of camp.

Jean Batten

 In my class I have been learning about Jean Batten. Me and Kyah have created this slideshow all about her! Have you ever heard of Jean Batten? 

Dick Frizzell

 In my class we have been doing kiwiana art inspired by Dick Frizzell. Me and Kyah made this google slide with information about Dick Frizzell. I found this activity interesting because I had never heard of Dick Frizzell so I learnt alot.

Chapter 1 activity

 In my class my teacher has started reading us the boy in the striped pyjamas. We are so far at chapter 1 and we had to do this activity about chapter 1 here is mine. Enjoy

Animals in ww1

                                       ~~~~Hello~~~~

 Anzac day is coming up soon so I chose to do a presentation about animals that went to war and what they were used for. I have also added a few video clips. Lest We Forget.

My novel bookmark

 A few days ago my class had to go into our school library and pick out a novel that we would like to individually read.  I choose the book the enchanted wood by Enid Blyton. We have a whole list of different activities to do that involve our story. This was one of the activities. I had to design a book mark that had somthing to do with my book. My book has a forest in it so I did forest things on mine. Here is the book mark. (It has been printed out and it is getting laminated)

My avatar painting

                                        Kia Ora bloggers~! 

                                    This week I have created this (interesting looking) piece of art.

Before I did my painting I went onto faceyourmanga.com and I created an avatar that looks something like me. After I made my avatar I got lines ruled up on a a3 piece of paper and then we had our avatar printed out. And then for the hard part! I had to draw my avatar out on the paper but to make it harder I had to make it an enlargement from my printed out avatar. So you had to make sure that you drew it inside the right squares. Then we had to move on to the painting part of it! The painting was pretty fun apart from the struggle to make the perfect hair colour. I finished my painting with a few ups and downs and as you can see art is definitely not my sweet spot. 

 

                                       Do you enjoy art? Have you ever tried to enlarge a picture?

Genius Project

 For this activity we had to get into groups (I was in a group with Kyah and Gabby) and we had to pick a person or people in the school to benefit. My group chose Nigel the caretaker. We chose Nigel because he works so hard cleaning up rubbish cleaning up vomit and so much more. For our genius project we chose to make a cake for Nigel saying Thank you on top with icing and we are also making him a thank you card and signing it and also we are going to be helping him clean up and we will clean up rubbish and etc.

Ayers Rock/Uluru

 Today we did the current events quiz. After the quiz I had to choose a question to research about. I choose Ayers rock/Uluru. Here is my fact file.

Iceberg paragraph

Since I have been learning about icebergs this week I have been doing alot of iceberg tasks. Here is on of them. I had to write a paragraph about this one particular iceberg which is New York x5 big! _-Enjoy

At my school from now on every Monday we have INTERCHANGE!!!

Our interchange classes are New Zealand history with Mrs Prendergast,Geography with Miss Hines and Science with Miss Power.

This week on Monday in New Zealand history we watched a interesting video about who first discovered NZ. In Geography we had to name all of the continents that make up the world and also circle all of those continents on a map. Lastly in science we did a experiment called spinning water and you had to grab a cup tie string on the sides fill it half way with water an spin it around and I was kinda surprised because the water actually stayed in the cup. "WOW"
