Water cycle



This video is about the water cycle and how it works. Its all about matter as well. As you watch the video you will learn heaps more about the water cycle and the three main states of matter. But what some people don't tell you is that there are really four states of matter. That last one is plasma. Its not talked about often.

Extension Practice for Writing Test!!! :)


CLOWNS GONE WILD


Rosie was eating breakfast when a news bulletin came on. “Breaking News!” Said the reporter, “We have some information that killer clowns are loose in the town of…” On the screen it said “We are having Some technical difficulties please stand by.” Rosie called to her father (His name was James) “ Popa, can you come down here a minute?” James made his way downstairs to see what was wrong. “What's wrong my sugar plum?” Asked James, “ The lady on the TV said there were killer clowns!!” Answered Rosie. “Where, did she say where Rosie?” “No, Popa. It cut out, look at the screen.” James look concerned at the screen. He look at Rosie, he had closed his eyes. Rosie had joined him in silence.
James look at Rosie and uttered “I will walk you to school, But I want you to take a knife.” “Yes Papa!” Rosie agreed with James. James knew he couldn’t do anything on the way home because he had to work. He walked to school with Rosie in silence. Rosie wanted to say something, but she changed her mind. When they arrived only three students were in class. (Their names were Jude, Johann and Jean. All boys.) Jean was Rosie’s best friend. They did everything together. Miss Mulligan called James outside
“ Did you hear about the clowns?” “Yes.” Replied James. “It's a shame that it's in our little town.” “WHAT!!” Shouted James in disbelief. “Did you not know? I'm very sorry i’m breaking the news to you, The news reporter is my sister she called me this morning before her broadcast and told me about it. Luckily me and the boys were already here preparing school. I had calls from the parents telling me they were not coming, I told them it was OK because they need to stay hidden.” “Ok, thanks for that Shirley.” (Shirley was Miss Mulligan's first name, all the parents called her by that name)
James walked inside and Rosie had gone. The backdoor was wide opened and two of the boys had gone too! Jude had sat behind the desk quietly crying. “Shirley, get in here!!” Yelled James. “Are you OK Jude?” Jude Replied with “I’m OK, But the clowns took them” Shirley had ran in when she saw no one was with them and the  kids were gone, she started to cry. Shirley paced the floor, she stopped and looked at James weirdly. She said “Who are you talking to James?” “Your son, Jude.” James answered  “Jude tell us what happened??” Shirley asked politely “Ok mum, I sat behind the desk because I was cold. Johann was playing a game with Rosie and Jean. The next time I look up the door was wide-opened and there was this note.” The note read “ Your kids will be fine, just as long as you do as we command, call this number if you wish to obey our commands.” Panicked faced, Shirley had dialled 111. They told the operator the story and gave them the number.
James had slept over at the school with Shirley and Jude. The next day, Shirley had got a call that the kids were safe and sound. James woke up to the excitement in Shirley's voice. “Are the kids alright?” Asked James. “Yes, we can go to the station and pick them up right now.” “Let's Go” Said James. When they arrived at the station Rosie, Jean and Johann ran up to give them all a hug. Everything turned out good in the end. The clowns were imprisoned. THE END

MATHS!!!



This is my maths task. Mrs Nua gave it to me. To get ready for our test! :)

MATHS WK 1!!!



First week back. Im finished My maths!! It was pretty easy but I need a little help and Mrs Ilaoa helped me!! :)

What Matters Matters.

Discussion Doc  (Make a copy first, file in reading)
States of matter... Credit to Quinlan for Helping.



Give three examples of each state of matter?
Solid
Liquid
Gas
Mountains
Water
Farts
Tree’s
Ocean
Steam
Walls
Paint
Clouds


What’s the difference between the three states of matter?
Solids
Liquids
Gases
The solid particles are close together. Also you can hold solid things like a rock or a piece of cake. Even a leaf.
With liquids you can not hold it in your hands because it will all just fall or sink straight out of your hand.
You can not see or feel gases mainly air. Gases can sometimes be seen on a cold day when you breath. But normally you can’t see air or gases.


Write 3 sentences explaining something new you learned from this reading.
Matter is anything that takes up space all around us, Matter also could be related to the light and electronical stuff of the world. Also something new that I have learnt is that everything is matter is someone tells you nothing matters, you can tell them that everything is matter. Also people can’t see air or feel air but they also think air isn’t heavy. But once you blow air from your mouth into a balloon or pool floaties the air will start to make them heavier than they were when they weren’t blown up. Because the more air you blow into a balloon the more heavy the balloon gets. Also the more water that is in a drink bottle the more heavy the drink bottle is. But the more water you drink out of the bottle the bottle starts to get less heavy and lighter.

Below I have put some things of what I have learnt.

When Variables are the same they are called Like Terms!  

2a+5a+=7a

4c+5c=9c

7p-4p=3p

ab+2ab=3ab

2a+4c+5c+5a=7a+9c

2f+2g+4f+7g= 6f+9g=15fg

2a+3a2+4a=9a+6a=15a

Riding the Bike!

This story is about a boy called Antony. He faces his fear. Take a look and comment what you think.



“Motocross day” Yelled Anthony aloud. He could not wait for the day of today. He was a big fanatic about motocross. He was so excited!! Antony’s Dad Ashley said “Grab your gear than we will have to wait for Steve” “Ok Dad” Replied Anthony.


Steve came and they all went to the Motocross derby. They called the 15-18 yr olds. Anthony was in that category. His sister Vanessa said to him “Good luck but don’t break your leg” Anthony laughed and replied with “I will try to win for you guys”

“Three, Two, One GO!!!” yelled the referee. Off they went going around corner and up and down on the bumpy roads. The big jump was ahead an Antony was scared and nervous as he was ahead of the pack of motorcycles.

“Here it comes, Let's do this” Antony said determined to win. He closed his eyes as he jumped over. “Woo Hooo” Everyone yelled as he glided over the jumped, he opened his eyes to his amazement he had got over and crossed the finish line.

All his family raced over to see him. “We are so glad you won” exclaimed Antony's mum Victoria. He won a fake gold medal and 100 dollars. He could not believe it. That night he was very tired and glad he overcame his fears.

THE END!!!!

TAMAKI VISIT!!!!


Today, We had a visit from Gabe and Saia who went to Silicon Valley. They came to tell us how it was. I thought it was pretty cool and that's where I want to end up. It was cool because they visited Khan Academy, Twitter and Facebook. Also they visited Xero, Alcatraz prison and Kiwi landing Pad. They said it was a cool experience and that it is a good learning journeying.  All in all I would like to visit the prison because I was intrigued with how the prisoners escaped.










BEST WRITING EVA!! (Nah Not really)

His life was in danger and he needed to leave immediately. He was being chased by the cops of Compton. Because his supposed uncle was a drug lord and he didn’t know it. This boy's name was Thomas or Tom for short. He was a foster all his life. He had found out he was one of four. But his mother had left him at the foster centre called Compton Foster centre or C.F.C for short because he was the baby and they did not have enough money for another baby.


He had left C.F.C at the age of 18 and moved to his uncle's house. He did not know he was a drug lord at this point in time. Uncle Alfie was his name. Alfie had said, “If anything happens and police come to knock on the door you better run to the back and jump over the fences till you get to hide somewhere”. Thomas agreed with that. After a year he had gone to college. He had gone for four years and graduate in Music producing. When he got back to Compton he had found out that his mother was looking for him and went back to the C.F.C.


He then went looking for her and found her. Her name was Felicia Jones. Felicia was shocked about how her boy was all grown up. She wanted him to come home with her. But he had declined because a week before he had received a call that Uncle Alfie had been sick and may not make it. He said to his now found mother “ I will come I promise but I need to stay here with Uncle Alfie till his passing”, “Okay”. They exchanged contact information and headed their separate ways.



Two months later uncle Alfie had passed and Thomas was packing up the house so he could move with hs mother. “Knock, Knock, Knock. It's the police can you let us in please Thomas.” As soon as he heard that Tom had his bag all packed up and called out to the Policeman “Come in the door is unlocked. You will not find what you are looking for anyways it is gone.” Answered Tom as he ran outside with the money and all his belongings he had. His life was in danger and he needed to leave immediately.

He had found the money and a note that said “ My dear Thomas. I have to tell you something, I was a drug lord but when you came into my life I stopped and looked after you. Now I give you all the money I ever had. Yours truly Uncle Alfie.” In tears, as he read the note he stormed out quietly and went to his mother's house catching a plane for California as that is where his mother lived.


They were all glad nothing bad had happened and that he was safe. But the police were still looking for him to ask some questions. But stopped searching because there was nothing to hide anymore. They Searched the house and found nothing so the police just stopped.


All was well for Thomas as he had married a beautiful wife named Samantha or Sammy for short. They had two wonderful kids call Alfie and Felicia in honour of his Uncle and Mother. He had grown up to become one of the most favourite people in music history as he DJ and travelled all over the country and world.

Winter Learning Journey

Activity 1- I would do the Pankration because like to wrestle and box and that's what Pankration means. It means all force.

Activity 2- 1. You can spell Milo like Milon as well. 2. The date of his death is unknown. 3. There are different types of stories of who his wife Myia died. One of them is that she died in a fire at his house.

Bonus Activity- I think it is unfair that women were not allowed to participate. But I can see why they weren't allowed because they probably thought that girls weren't tough and might die in the games.

The Rosa Family Fight!!!

Billy and Nora were twins. They had just moved from Whiterose to the beautiful Euclid because they wanted to have a normal life as a family.  But that was not what was going to happen. The family consisted of Georgia Rosa who had the power of invisibility. Terry Rosa had the power of strength and flight. Billy and Nora had the same powers which were freeze breath, heat breath, and flight. Jacky was the little brother who had the power of mind-reading and then there was little Chloe who had telekinesis and could teleport anywhere in the world.
The family had travelled to Whiterose, to visit aunt Ruby who was slowly dying because she was very old and was the oldest superhero there ever was!!! Aunt Ruby had one last wish. It was to see one of her grandchildren defeat a supervillain and send them to jail. “Crash!” something had hit very loudly at window in the kitchen downstairs. Billy volunteered to go see what it was. But there was something in store for him that he didn’t want to see. “Um guys,” yelled Billy “you should come have a look at this.” They all ran down the stairs horrified at what they might find.
To their horror they saw a gigantic brick on the floor with a sticky note on it. It said, “Come outside Rosa Family.” So as they went outside. Nora said aloud “be careful this may be a trap.” “Look out” yelled Jacky, as he had seen a trap. But all of a sudden Billy, Terry, and Georgia were thrown up high into a tree. It was made out of carbonated rope but it had electricity connected to it. So if they tried to break out they would be burnt to a crisp.
While Nora, Jacky and Chloe tried to think about what to do, aunt Ruby came outside to see what was going on. She then saw a plug that was plugged in and pulled it out because she did not like using too much energy. All of a sudden the electricity on the trap had stopped and Chloe used telekinesis to carefully to bring them to the warm green grass. Aunt Ruby was shocked with amazement at the way she saved them. But she did not see the man that was standing behind the tree gloating quietly.
Jacky announced “I can feel a bad type of energy behind the tree. Show yourself.” “Okay, you caught me” called out the man. “Who are you?” Nora replied. “My name is Link Griffin, but people call me Trident Storm.”
Link had the power of lightning and thunder. He also could control water. He had a water bottle and tipped it out on the grass. Jacky yelled “What are you going to do with that? Water the grass.” “Nope.” Replied Trident, “ I am going to destroy you.” He uses his hand and points directly to the Rosa family and his power was disabled, like it just wouldn’t work. Jacky had his hand up and and had disabled Tridents powers. Trident said “How can you do that? I haven't seen anyone in the world being able to do that since Miss Bomb ” “Well I learnt from the best.” Answered Jacky looking straight towards aunt Ruby because she had taught him how disable someones power and was Miss Bomb. Aunt Ruby beamed like a sunny day in Philadelphia.
Trident couldn’t use his powers so he tried another technique which was to fight with his hands, but little did he know that Nora and Billy were black belts in kempo and could use nunchucks and staff bos. So when Trident came up to Nora and kicked her but she caught it and flipped him and landed on his back. While Nora was trying to defeat him, Billy had called Whiterose superhero police and they had just arrived.  They grabbed Trident and pushed him in the police car.

Everything turned out fine. The day after Trident was put on trial aunt Ruby had passed on but everyone knew she died peacefully. Trident was sentenced to life in jail. The Rosa family were glad that he was put away in jail.

Making Kindness Go Viral

Immersion Assembly

YAH!, school is here. We are now back at school to learn, create and share our awesome creativity things we do in class. At out first immersion assembly this term was all about art. Team 1’s movie was about all their favourite things. Team 2’s Item and movie was about all the different seasons there are. Winter, Summer, Spring and Autumn were all four choices to pick from. Team 3 was about Architecture building. Team 4 was about Teacher avengers. They were going to look at different kinds of comic books and create their own. Team 5 was about All 4 Waka’s: Hikianalia, Hokulea, Te Aurere and Hine Moana.

Team 5’s act was pretty cool, even Mrs Tele’a was awesome and her doing her funny act pretending to paddle. The music on team 4s movie was a superhero themed song in action movies usually. Mr Goodwin was the narrator. He talked as if they had made a real comic book movie.  Team 2s learning was based on the different kinds of seasons there are. Bright colours are for summer, dark colours like red for autumn, Winter is mostly white and blue then spring are any types of colours.

Team 1,2 and 3 didn’t were really any costumes but there message was to build or use all types of lovely colours of the seasons, trying to think what you like and to do architecture. Team 4 teacher Mr Somerville was dressed as Captain America. Team 5s teachers were dressed in our house colours which are Hikianalia (yellow), Hine Moana (blue), Hokulea (green) and Te Aurere (red). They are our house colours named after the 4 waka’s.

What I liked about team 1s item was they were sharing there favourite things about what they really like in their lives. Team 2s item was learning about the different colours in the different seasons like WInter, Spring, Summer and Autumn and that was interesting. Teams 3s one was super interesting and cool because they are doing architecture building in there class. Team 4s one was pretty hilarious as for there superhero names with a very very bad villain. Then we come down to team 5s item. It was pretty funny because they were pretending they were actually racing in their waka. Hine Moana was Mrs Tele’a was coming first then Hokulea Mrs Garden took the lead and won. This was our first 2016 Immersion assembly.

In Ten lines write how you felt about FiaFia Last night!!!

I LOVED Fiafia. I was in rock band. When I was waiting in the wings I could hear all the parents and children screaming and shouting. When I got on stage I had to set up the keyboard and put all the plugs in.  Then Marilyn said " There the one and the only Flying Wolves". Then Lorenzo and I started to play. The song we play was Guns and Roses "Sweet Child of mine".  Heather and Latu were singing, I was on keyboard, Ryan was on drums, Flynn-lay was on snare drum, Lorenzo was play the electric guitar and on bass was Owen. We were the flying wolves, It was a silly name but I like it. I can't wait til next fiafia. But I will not be preforming I will be watching.

2015 Reflection

2015 Reflection
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is my 2015 reflection. The things that I have learnt during the past year are learning the Mihi with Miss Tito, how to play softball and how to make a healthy burger and tortilla  with Mrs Tele’a. We also went to rainbows end and Parakai pools. The highlight of my year was being in year 7 and learning more that I have done in 6 years at point England. The two goals I am striving to achieve are getting better at maths and getting to another level at reading.
