In room 20 we went on a journey to find out what words mean from the solar system. My word was Lunar, and I had to be explain ready with the definition of the word Lunar.

10 questions about Earth ....

This term we are learning about Space, and all the different planets. Our class room had a choice, we got to choose a planet. So I picked planet earth , since I live on Earth I thought it would be easy. It turned out quite hard, but I managed. The best question I came up with was Why do Humans live on one particular planet?

My Presentation

  
This is my presentation. This was a group effort, I worked in a group of three and we manged to put together a presentation about the All Blacks, and extra information. We all worked on different cards. During this presentation you will see the Anzac day card, I created that one and also done the Pink and White Terraces. Thank you for watching! and I hope you found something new from this presentation.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

As we walked into the Theater we were already late for the movie. But at the same time I couldn't wait to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows 3D! Walking in it was very quite and I could feel the tension in the air.

We were half way through the movie and I started to really think magic was real. The pictures were coming out of the screen in my eyes.

This movie is the seventh movie and I believe its the last Harry Potter movie. This movie is all about a magic wand, its a wand that only a legend can have. At the end of this movie their was one legend and that was Harry Potter.  


My favorite part of this movie was when all the characters fight. Its really sad, but in the end Harry Potter's group one.

Maths Whizz

Maths whizz is a great activity to do,  it can also improve your maths. I think that this is good for practicing your maths and even just for fun. This picture above shows where I am at with my maths, I have finished my assessment, it can take you about 45 minutes to finish it.In the assessment I had a lot of hard questions, by practicing that it was better and easier for me. I am on to the stage where I taking little test, for different things. I am now trying to subtract bigger numbers.

My Fitness level

"I have to at least get up to level 2", I mumbled.....

Running to the line I could feel my heart thumping and people cheering my name. I thought This isn't that hard. BUT I spoke too soon. This beep test was harder than it looked. A beep test is when you run 20m to a line and back continuously until you basically faint.

There is only 20 levels that you can go up to and this is one way to show how fit you are.

This was my very first time to do this test, it was very disappointing as my score was 2.6.

I think I could have done better than that but we can only get better at things.

The next time we participate in this test I will be sure to get over level 4 in order to achieve this goal I need to practice, and run more often.

The Scottish Flag

The Scottish flag.
The white colour on the flag represents: Peace and Honesty.
The blue colour on the flag represents: Vigilance, Truth and Loyalty, Perseverance and Justice.

The Cross on the flag means: The Scottish flag is the cross of St. Andrew

A fact about Scotland!
I found out that the capital of Scotland is Edinburgh.

My Tessellation....

For maths we had to complete something called a Tessellation, Did you know that tessellation means to repeat a shape over and over again without any gaps or over laps.

I have found out that another word for tessellation is tilling.

My Creative name...

We had to create our own names. You could write your name, or draw your name, you could alse do a lot of different things. My design was created on Hyperstudio, I drew it myself and tried to put some ideas into it, but I am not a great drawer.

My Goal....

My goal shows that i need to improve on my shooting. I need to practice practice practice and it makes perfect.

Science Roadshow.

As I walked into the hall, I glazed at the great display of science. The thing I was most Interested in was the Pepper’s ghost, it was a challenge where you had to put your hand around a glass and there is liquid inside of the glass and when you wrap your hands around it the liquid sucks up through a straw and goes to the top of the glass.

The Drill...

The earliest drill was used by the Egyptians, They were not electrical.







Drills are very handy and they are good for building things, lucky for us this invention was created by Arthur James Arnot, In 1889, and he made the first electric one, six years later in 1895, a man called William Fein invented a portable drill.

Tricky Triangles...

This picture represents the interior angles of a triangle.

I found out that interior angle adds up to 180 degrees.

If you have done more then one of these shapes you will know that this is true for any Triangle.

Netball time !

For the first time I was not feeling nervous, I was really overjoyed. I was ready to play an intense game, we were playing against Remuera Intermediate.

“One two three Point England” ! We all cheered,
I was getting ready to play my first game for the year.

As the referee blew the whistle we stepped onto the court.
The first third of the game was really competitive.
The ball felt like it was just floating across the court and into our goal, we were winning but the score could always change it was a challenge with the right amount of people and we could not have a rest only on half time. But we were great threw the whole game.
We won the game by 2 points- 8 to 6, by the end on the game I was feeling so lethargic.

I would like to thank our great coach Missy for giving us great advice and giving us great learning skills, you are awesome!

Geometry!

In Room 20 we were learning about geometry. My picture shows two box's and Mrs Nua explained how to do this we had to choose a shape and my one is a square then we had to move our shape 2 down and 2 across . We created it on Google Docs , It was a challenge for me, I am looking forward to doing more of these challenges. To get through this challenge I worked with Sylvia , and Selena.

Geometry Translation means moving shapes with out re-sizing it.

The Unbelievable Tornado...

The chaos winds of North Shore has been a disaster to families and homes. This was no ordinary day, The tremendous Tornado struck around 3pm and went at the paste of 200km, I have seen the 3 News and the photos of buildings being picked up, and a lot of of cars have been tipped upside down, the mean beast has caused horror to the CBD(Central Business District) area.
