maths glog

In maths we have been learning to use place value to solve addition problems. That is why I have made this glog.

Museum Trip



Today my class and Room 6 went to the museum and we learnt some Maori. We also learnt about the stars and the constellations they make. First we went to the big ball thing and when you are inside you feel like you are in space and I really enjoyed going in. You can see all the stars and planets!!. when you go in the big ball thing its like going into a black hole. After that we went to learn about the Maori New Year. We learnt about what they did to celebrate, like how they killed birds which I am against and how they had fun. We did the haka and went back to school.

Week 4 Reflection

What: This week I did another Picasso face but we painted it instead, I haven't finished it yet but a really want too. We are sticking on pipe cleaners, feathers and lots of other funny different things. We also got a drawing lesson from a real artist called Graham Braddock. He taught us how to draw a possum. First you measure where the picture is going to be, so we did that. Then we started the legs, arms and head of the possum. That took some thinking about thinking. I also changed my blog title name but I did not want to. Frank Bunce came to our school too and talked to us about the rescue helicopter.


So What: I learnt that you need to draw very lightly if you want to make a very very good picture. I learnt how to do great shading. I think I finally know how to find the main idea in each paragraph in the story.   


Now What: I really want to finish my Picasso face so I can put the materials on. I want to get better at writing and handwriting. Also want to get the habits of mind about thinking about thinking poster in the hall.

Frank Bunce

Today Frank Bunce came to my school to talk about the Westpac Rescue Helicopter and how he played rugby. We got a photo with him as well as an autograph.  The pilot for the Westpac Rescue Helicopter said what they do and how they do it.  They have this thing called the winch and they lower someone down and bring him up again with the sick or injured  person. If they can't land  that is how they rescue someone.

Rules and Laws - What's the difference?

A rule is something that a group of people have to follow and is not enforced by police or government but may be enforced by a leader of a group.

A law is a system of rules and guidelines which are enforced through social institutions to govern behavior, wherever possible. It shapes politics, economics and society in numerous ways and serves as a social mediator of relations between people.

A law I know is no killing humans and no sexual abuse.

If this law was never made it would be a disaster, most humans will be dead and there will lots of protesters.

Beach Safety





One day my classroom went to Castlecliff beach to learn about beach safety. Three things things I learnt about it is that rips are dangerous because if you get in one you get pulled out to sea. If you spot one then stay out. This is how you spot them, if the water is a differnt colour then the sea then it is a rip. We saw how fast you have to be to get changed if you were a lifeguard, some kids tried to do it in a race. I also learnt that the lifeguards boat is actually called I.R.B which stands for inflatable rescue boat.
