The Great Wonders of the World!!!

Have you ever watched around the world in eighty days? Well, I went around the world in twenty minutes. we had a Google Expedition. We used Google cardboard. (Picture will be put in somewhere)

David Attenborough was the first person we met. Some of the boys thought he was a girl. He was in the Borneo rain forest. Did you know that the Borneo rain forest has an estimated age of 130 million years, making in the oldest rain forest in the world

We also went to Buckingham Palace where the queen lives.  Did you know that there are 1514 doors, 760 windows and the windows get washed every 6 weeks. Also their are more than 350 clocks in Buckingham.

If you have ever been to Rome you would see the Colosseum. They use to have gladiator fights to the death. Did you know that there are 36 trapdoors to show off special effects.  

I really liked using google cardboard and would like to use it again. After using it I felt dizzy and felt like puking but I didn’t puke. It also felt fun spinning on my bum and looking at the all the wonders of the world. If I could buy google cardboard for one dollar I would.

Extra for Experts

Term 4 Writing Test 2015

When Miss Hockly finished with the notices and showed us the timetable, I thought “What's fun time, it must be a test”. Mrs Tele’a came to the front of the team and explained what fun time was. She stated that fun time was going to be fun and not practicing for athletics or doing a test.

I was in Khaia, Quinlan, Alexis and Marilyn team. The first activity we did was pea pipes. This involved a bowl of green peas, a straw and another bowl, that was empty, at the other end. We had got a straw each picked up a pea and waited till our teammates shouted GO!! Miss Hockly was holding our bowls because when they were on the table the wind made them fall off. We were against room 1A and we were room 2A. Also 1A won.

Next we went to Fear Factor.  Me and Alexis had to eat a dry weetbix, I went first and it was really dry I was trying not to hack it back up. In the end I came second. When Alexis went she put all of it in her mouth and chewed till her teeth hurt.(Not really though). Khaia, Marilyn and Quinlan had to try to eat out of the can spaghetti and kiwi fruit in two minutes.

After that we had brain buster. We had to answer riddles and maths riddles. Miss Clark gave us a paper that had the riddle on it and we had to work it out. One of the maths riddles were really hard. It read, Use one to nine to fill these in. Only use each number once.

Last activity was photo booth with Mrs Tele’a.  We went to the green room and got ready and did a happy face. Then we went into the street and We took another happy selfie. Then Mrs Tele’a came and took a picture of us looking serious. After that I jumped on Khaias back and did a funny face. I love taking pictures. ( There are pictures below)


In the end I really enjoyed it and would like to do it again. I had a great time with a couple of my friends. Hopefully next year, at the beginning of the year before testing, we can do it again.
