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.

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.

Immersion Assembly!!!

BRRING! The bell went off on the first day of school I am so excited. I race to get my shoes then head to line up and get ready for immersion assembly I think in my head “I can’t wait to see what wacky things the teachers do”.

Mrs Tele’a announced as I sat down “Class three can you please go to the hall”. As class three walks outside she says “Class 2 can you please stand and head to the hall”. I stand and walked slowly because there is people jam. I sat down in the hall and waited for Mr Burt.

My favourite team that performed was team five because all the teachers in our block had to use chopsticks to eat noodles and of course everybody knows Miss Clark is half Asian so she knows how to use chopsticks, and she won!!

My other favourite one was team 2 because Miss Berry put a Barney the dinosaur costume on. Miss Nalder asked aloud “Who would like to hug barney, put your hand up if you do”? The next second everyone put there hands up. It all looked so cute.

I LOVE when the teachers do wacky things like make funny food or do funny things or make funny dance videos. I do love immersion assembly they are SO fun.

PANCAKES!!!!!!!

This Presentation is my chose your own explanation writing. We got to chose our own subject. I chose pancakes, Yummy. Leave a comment if you tried this an tell me how it turns out.

Explanation writing. Spend, Share and Save.

This is my draft copy of my explanation writing.
My good writing is below.

Money, Money, Money, Money. Do you want to know how to spend, Share and Save money. That is what I am about to tell you. So lets get right to it. Let’s begin with spending money.  

Here are some things children my age could possibly spend money on: Clothes. Food.lollies.Shoes.PS games.the movies. a Haircut.What would you save your money on? 

Here are some examples of what kids my age or older might save their money on. Headphones.An IpadAn Iphone,Glasses (If your short or long  sighted) New BedA carOr Going overseas.The first reason why you might share your money is, Some people give to charitable causes. Some celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Sandra Bullock, Alicia Keys, Matthew Mcconaughey, John Cena, Ben Affleck and 50 Cent give money to charities..  These Celebrities support Charities. Some even make there own. Giving money away to people is good and bad. 

The good way is to give it to people you trust that will pay you back. The bad way is when you give it to people you do not trust and can’t pay you back. In spending, saving and sharing money it is important to set spending goals to guide yourself.  A goal helps you to save money on things you need instead of spending it willy nilly. 

When considering how you will spend, save and share your money it is important to decide whether or not to spend your money, Save your money or share it out.

Hokule'a Recount

It was a cold and damp morning on Wednesday as the Hokule’a was arriving today. I had to look after some kids that have just started school. But that was okay. After I met who I was looking after we went to the hall and Mr Burt talked about what was going to happen and that there will be film crews. Then we walked down to the Pt England beach.

When we arrived we sat down on cold and wet grass. We had to wait for a while. I looked around to see the other Manaiakalani schools.

When we saw the waka. I heard a sound and did not know what it was. Then we heard the words of the whaia, ( she was welcoming them to our beach Ukutoia or Pt England reserve).

After that we gave them high-fives and then went to line up. Then we walked back to school.   I think this was a really good experience for the whole school. It was a once in a life time opportunity. I thought it  was a great experience.

There are some pictures down below.
