Science Intensive

Yesterday room 10 students went to room 8 to do science intensive.

So first of all our teacher in room 8 was Mr Nath. We were learning about electricity. We first had to be in groups are we had papers and felt tips on our desks. The groups had to write down what if New Zealand had no electricity and with no power. My group had a lot of ideas about losing power in New Zealand. Each group went to each table and got to look at people's ideas they have written. Later on We went on our netbooks and we were reading ideas about electricity. We had a activity and we had to write down the answers that we have been reading and write it down to fill the questions. Finally we had make a light bulb turn on. It was really hard to connect all the wires to the light bulb holder. Our light turned on and it was really simple. Then we went back to our class and told our teacher what we have learnt about electricity.

I feel happy because my group had a lot of ideas and worked out how to turn on the light bulb.

Reading Response Journal

Reading Response Journal

Title: Tiny People
Author: Jack Lasenby

Today I read about a little boy's dad who is a performer and he is famous.

I feel happy about what I read today because the dad teaches the little boy some of his tricks.

My favourite character was dad because he has cool tricks and performs in every show.

I would feel happy if the same thing that happened to my character, happened to me because I will have money cool tricks and become very famous.

I think if the author decided to write another part to this is what will happen if the little boy becomes famous like his dad.

Kiwi Can

Last Friday we went to room 11 to do kiwi can. Our theme was resilience and our topic was perseverance.

After that we had to guess what greeting was from a country. The greeting was form Russia. We did a energise called target zone. The game was that we had to be in teams and throw the hoop into the cone. My team won for the energiser " target zone." Mr Numia and Miss Tuia told us some question about being patient. There were different kinds of good ideas about being patient. We did our activity called "flip the mat." The boys won for the activity. We finally got into our points. I can't believe that  we got 25/25.

I feel happy because we had 25/25 and I feel happy for the boys who won the activity.

Movement with Mrs Tofa

Movement
-Mrs Tofa


1.What is movement? Movement is and acting of moving and movement can be anywhere.


1.What moves things? Sometimes we move because we control our body and wind can move things that are light.


Isaac Newton's 3 laws of motion/movement


I understand about law #1 is that the force is something that has been pushed, hold and different kinds of things.


  • Air
  • Hand
  • Breath
  • Wind


You can’t move the car on the floor because it’s bumpy and it is called friction.


You can move the car on the table because it’s smooth.


Law #1 helps you save your life and why? Because if you get crash you will crash and go out the window, but the force is you seatbelt and the airbag to protect your face.


Law #1 put your seatbelt on!


Law #2 The heavier the force is the bigger the force you need.


Isaac Newton was born in England and his birthday is on december 25 1643. He lived for 85 years. At college he got interested in math, physics and astronomy. Newton had new ideas about motion, which he called it the 3 laws of motion. Newton’s new ideas were so good that the Queen Anne knighted him 1705. Sir Isaac Newton died in 1727. He was raised by his grandmother.

Tennis Recount

Yesterday we went to the hall to do tennis to learn tennis skills.

We first got into 4 groups like our coach Campbell said. After that we went to grab our tennis balls and racket. Next we went to our nets and my group started playing, but first we had to listen to his rules and his instruction too. My teacher Mrs Moopanar and I were a team. We were like the masters of tennis. Later on we had to go pass 20 hits for tennis. We had 15 hits so we were close. Finally we had to tell what we have learnt today.

I felt fit and healthy because I finally learnt tennis skills.

Financial Literacy #4

Today on 8 September 2016, we did our last lesson of financial literacy. Our last new topic for the day was risk management and insurance.

So first we had our financial teachers who were Griegan and Raymond. Griegan wrote down risk and insurance on each side. A risk is something that has happened to you real bad and insurance is something you are supposed to do when something real bad is going to start happening soon. After that we had to write down something that will happened in your home, car, health and life. My group did house insurance. If your house if on fire make before your house starts getting on fire you will have to turn off the gas and the smoke alarm full battery. Finally Griegan and Raymond gave us certificates and a chocolate for a treat. We had fun for our last day.

I feel happy because we had treats and a certificate even we have learnt something new today.

Financial Literacy #2

Today on 6 September 2016, Griegan and Raymond came to our class again to teach us a new topic which was " lending and borrowing."

So first we did a little bit of warm ups. Griegan had 4 items. They were DVD, pen, $5 bill and a cellphone. 5 groups did plays. Some plays were about borrowing and some were lending broking things that they own. Next we had to fill in the missing words. Some people got it right and some people got it wrong. I got a 5/7 correct. Then we had to write 4 people that we trust. I wrote down families, friends, classmates and church members. Finally Griegan and Raymond told us what we have learnt about borrowing and lending.

I feel responsible because I will take care of my money wisely and trust people who can lend my things back the way it was.
