Term 2 Reflection

This week it is the last week of school so we have to do a reflection of term 2. it was kind of easy because I love school and I love ever thing we do at school especially maths because I just love working out equations and I love adding numbers together. The hard part about the reflection was that all the options/workshops are soo fun. Term 2 and 1 has been so fun and interesting and can't wait for term 3 and 4 ( keep up the amazing work Whetu teachers)

Maths mystery

This week Jasmine, Kiarna, Brianna, and I did the maths mystery together. It was different to all the other maths mystery's because you had to solve a code and you did not have a suspect list and you did not put your answer in the draw. The maths mystery was kind of hard because there was a lot of take away of big numbers like 89 - 70 = and that was hard. It was easy because all the people I worked with were good at times tables and there were quit a few time table questions.

Egg Carton Challenge

This week for our Whetu Challenge we created something using egg cartons.

I decided to make a rubbish tree because I Noticed a lot of rubbish when I walk or go in the car.
The Materials I used was egg cartons, coloured paper, sharpie, Velcro, double sided tape, paint,
glue gun, and cardboard.
The hardest part was gluing the tree to the base, I think why it did not really stick to the base was
because the tree trunk was very bendy.
The easiest part was painting the tree and the base.
I love my work and know it is a super nova.

Week 11 blog challenge

This week for Whetu's blog challenge you had to recreate your bedroom our your classroom. I choose to do my bedroom because it has always been my dream to recreate my bedroom. I love how my room turned out because it turned out exactly how I wanted it to. The easiest part was placing all the stuff in my room because there was no background in the picture so you could see what was behind the stuff, And the hardest part was putting the lollies in the bowl because the picture of lollies that I found was square.Here is my room.

Matariki Jigsaw Puzzle

This week for writing Whetu had to Write about Matariki. The teacher gave you four puzzle piece's to answer some questions and next week we get four more puzzle pieces to make our finale puzzle. Mrs Kennedy wanted Pekapeka witch is my homeroom to colour in the puzzle pieces to make it a supernova. I coloured my puzzles piece;s in with pink, purple, blue, red, yellow, and orange to make my puzzle piece's pop. I think this is my best work this year and I am very proud of it. Here Is a photo of my work (not my finished project)

True or false Matariki

This week For reading Whetu had to write about Matariki. There was questions and you had to tick if the question was true or false. You also had to answer two questions that was at the top the were 1. When is Matariki due to begin inn 2020 and 2. what is the name given to the central star in the cluster. My answers were July the 13th and Matariki. I choose false twice and true four times.

Whetu Paper Planes

Today our challenge was to design an accurate paper plane. We were given a draft piece of
paper to trial and a good piece to use once we had tested the accuracy of it.

Before we started I thought this challenge was going to be hard because every time I make a
paper air plane it dose not work out.

I decided to use the design of the Air New Zealand logo with a silver fern at the back.

The hardest part was making the shape and drawing the air NZ logo and fern.

During our competition time I managed to score 15 points because I only got two turns before Mrs
Kennedy blow the whistle to say OK the people who got it in the hanger stand up, OK you are
all in the finals.

Week 10 maths mystery

This week I did the Math Mystery by myself at home because I had no time to do it at school. It was easy because I had a printer at home, so I could print the suspects list. It was hard because I had to work by myself without anybody helping me, but my Mum's friend Eve did help me the teeeeeenised bit. I think the pencil case thief was Ruby because she goes to school in a car, has light hair, is a female, likes netball, and eats cherry's.

Week 10 Sick sentences

This week we also did the same writing activity but with a different picture( if you read my last post). The picture was a snail coming out of a strawberry and there was green moss at the bottom of the picture. It  was hard but easy, why it was easy was because there were a lot of things in the picture and why it was hard was because there was a lot of stuff in the picture but you couldn't really see all the items.

Birthday Card Designing

This week for the Whetu blog challenge we had to make a cover for a birthday card because Mr Fraser and Miss Coles want new birthday cards. There were a couple of rules 1 It has to say Happy Birthday on it somewhere 2 it has to have lots of bright colour's. On my birthday card it says happy birthday and he aroha whakato he aroha puta ma if kindness is sown then kindness you shall receive has a cake that is dripping with candles on it and the background is purple blue and pink that is blended.

Synthesis Eggs (White Whales)

This week for my Synthesis Eggs I researched facts about white whales. Animals are not quit my thing to research about I would rather research about sport. I know that my work is a supernova because I worked super hard on it and took my time to make it perfect. The reason why I have hardly anything on the per knowledge section is because I don't really know anything about white whales. I am soo proud of my work and can't wait for my mum and dad to see my work.

Sick sentences

This week we also did the same writing activity but with a different picture( if you read my last post) The Picture was a brown owl and a little black and yellow bee. I think well I know that my work is a supernova because I took my time (not like other people who rushed) I would still do it again because it is fun and helps your eyesight and helps you write bigger and better sentence's. I have learned that writing is fun and helps you learn a lot of cool stuff. Here is the photo we had to write about.

Synthesis Eggs (Fainting Goats)

This week we did the same reading challenge but we wrote about something different. I wrote about fainting goats (But I didn't really know anything about Fainting goats)it was really interesting because as you know I do not know anything about fainting goats. It Is Verry Cool how some goats faint and some don't because we are humans and we all faint at some point Because I have never fainted in my life witch tells me I am probably going to faint When I am older. I choose Fainting goats to write about because deviled horned caterpillars sound scary and weird and I kind of already know about weather and in my satisfaction, I think fainting goats are actually pretty cool.

Ultimate Playground Logo

Today I Made a logo for my ultimate playground. What we have to do is you have to draw a new good playground that you think people with enjoy. You also have to make a logo and a name for your playground as it might be our new playground. The reason why we are doing this is because the big blue is taken down (if you do not know what the big blue is it is a big playground with a big blue slide) My Playground name is ZIG ZAG STARS. why it is called that is because I took zig zag paths to make my ultimate playground and why it has stars at the end is because I am a star for making a good and fun playground (well I think I am a star for achieving It :) I Think I am a supernova because I took my time as some people rushed to get it done first. I also like the activity because not only is it fun and interesting but it is also helping you learn. (here are some subjects you used to finish the work Art you had to draw a playground and design a logo And Math to figure out the measurements of your playground) 

Week 9 Maths Mystery

This week for the mats mystery we had to figure out who stole the pancakes. I worked with Jordanlee because she has always been sooooooooo nice every day and we just keep being nice to each other. Jordanlee and I Think That the pancake thief is Seb because he is wearing a hat is a male is wearing trainers is nine years old and loves fruit on his pancakes.

Tennis ball Tower challenge

Today for our Whetu Challenge we worked in a group to build a tower out of newspaper, 2 straws,
and sellotape. We needed to make our tower strong enough to hold a tennis ball and be able to stand
alone (not leaning on anything or needing support.

Today I worked with Kiarna And Maia

At first, we had trouble with Well to be honest nothing was really that hard Because I am kind of
an export at making towers to hold stuff.

The easiest thing was Making the base because We only used paper and tape for it.

The best part of our tower was the Tennis Queen. The reason why we had a Tennis Queen was that
One part of the tower had a seat looking shape so we said why not put a little Person sitting there.

Our tower looked like the boat that swing's at the amusement park.

In the end, our tower could basically hold anything except for very heavy and big things.

Synthesis Eggs (dinosaurs)

This week for our reading challenge was Writing and reading about Dinosaurs. you had to write what you already know, What Your read in the text, and your new understanding. I found out a lot about dinosaurs that I did not know. I liked it very much and can't wait for next week's activity.

Sick Sentences

This week Whetu did a Writing challenge It was could sick sentences. What you had to do was fix up the sick sentences. There was the start of the sentence and then you had to finish the sentence. I think my sick sentences are a supernova because I took my time and was creative with my work. I would differently do this again because it is fun and helps you learn.

week 8 maths mystery

This week for the Maths mystery we had to solve who the naughty Gnome was. I worked with Lola B and I would defiantly work with her again because whenever I answered a question and It was right she would say Good Job High Five. So she made me happy and want to work harder. Lola and I think that the culprit is Captain steve. We made up a Joke and It goes like this, Knock Knock, Who's there, Cap, Cap who, Captain steve. The reason why it says cap is because captain steve was wearing a cap.
