Case Closed

Today Mrs Taaffe came in and confessed that she did the crime in our Whetu classroom. Mrs Taaffe said that she came to school on Saturday the 10th of October to drop some work off at school. Mrs Taaffe's computer has been having some issues so she came into Whetu and took the dongle she saw the jar of milky ways for our star buck draw since she loves mini chocolates she got so tempted that she took a few. She heard someone so she rushed out of the classroom and dropped some milky way bars on the floor. She went to exit the classroom and then the door got jammed so Mrs Taaffe pushed the door and so the door got a little crack in it. Mrs Taaffe left the room and ran out to the front of the office. She then stopped behind a bush to see if the door closed. She then left to go to the petrol station to get a few things and then went to the hairdressers. 

Letter Of The Week

 This week for letter of the week the letter was C. We had to research some words to fill up our piece of paper or our google drawing page. My tongue twister was The Chicken Checkers Ought To Check The Chickens That The Chicken Catchers Caught. I worked very hard to make my work a supernova even though it took a long time to do it. I think this weeks Letter of the week is my best one so far because it has a lot of detail and I took my time with searching up good words for what I am describing. I am very proud of my work and can't wait for next week.

I did the house team relay in the 8 and 9 year old girls, in my team was Sophie, Azaliha, and Maia, I ran 4th and Patiki won in the 8 and 9 year old girls. I am very happy on how I did and I hope i get to go to HP Athletics. I can't wait for next year because I get to do High Jump.

Letter Of The Week

This week for letter of the week the letter was N. My work is a supernova because I took my time when looking for good words that describe the  letter N. I think this weeks letter of the week has been the best letter of the week so far. I am so happy that the teachers let us do letter of the week again this term.

Lifting Finger Prints

This week for rotations I was in Mrs Kennedy group. We were lifting our finger prints of the window with dusting powder. I lifted my thumb ant it was a loop. We also used a special brush that directives use. At first we used some corn flour but it didn't show the finger print very well so we used some dusting powder. We worked in buddy's, my buddy was Brianna. when we were waiting to lift our finger prints we went on CSI Web Adventures The Experience and did the Handwriting Analysis. 

Finger Prints

 This week for our rotation with Mrs Kennedy we were printing our own finger prints with these ink pads that a police officer gave to Mrs Kennedy. There are three main finger print patterns, 1.loop 2.whorl 3.arch. I have no arches, 8 loops, and 2 whorls. Were we kept our finger prints were on this Fantastic Fingerprints sheet and on it, it tells you that koalas have finger prints very similar to humans that they could be a confused at a crime scene.when we were printing our fingerprints we had to use one side of the ink pad and the other side was for your buddy then you would have to wipe of some of the ink on a piece of paper and put the finger print piece paper on the edge of the table then start on one edge of your finger and work your way to the other so that you can see your whole finger print and if you were in a crime scene the police would be able to tell you finger print. I can't wait for next weeks finger printing session.
