Team Building

 Team building

Every Wednesday my class do a really fun thing called team building. For those who don’t know what team building is, it’s when we get into groups and do a team challenge. Every Wednesday I learn more and more about being a team player. Yesterday my favourite part of it was seeing Kova’s (my classmates) group sing Bob the Builder. I don’t think my group did very well, our song was Old Town Road but I think we should have done Shrekophone because it would be much easier and then I could go crazy.

Research project

Two days ago everyone in my class created a research project. The research project had to be about a country. We had to do it in pairs and lucky for me my teammate was Bernadette. She is really REALLY smart and she's my friend. Sadly I had to go to Mr. Ngata for a math test. The country that we chose was the Philippines because she’s from there. We were so close to finishing but we just didn't have enough time. I really wish we finished that one.

Hauora

Last week my class and I created a new T shaped literacy about Hauora and muscles. One of the things that I learnt was that your smallest muscle is in your ear and it’s name is stapedius. I really liked making my Scratch animation although I did have to redo it like 5 times. The biggest muscle in your body is called gluteus maximus. Here is my scratch animation.

 Last week my whole class made a T shaped literacy about character descriptions. I learnt that descriptions about your characters are one of those things that you just have to do in a story so the reader paints a picture of them in their head. My favorite part of what we did in it was drawing our own character. Here is the link to the description of my own character: The Clown

 Stats investigation 

Last week all of the people made a mini class investigation. We all got to choose our groups, because me and Ryan (one of my classmates)  work so well together we chose to work with each other. First we grabbed our math books and drew a math table on them, our investigation was: “What is Te Maunga's favourite number? Then we wrote down our favourite number. Next we started to ask others what their favourite number was. After two days we finished asking people what their favourite number was and made a Google Sheet, then we ended up with Te Maunga’s favourite number, 9. My favourite part of it was asking people what their favorite number is. I like the number 42.

Sea Life activities

 Sea Life

Three weeks after the start of 2021 my class and I did sea life activities. The activities that I did  were oil spill and sea horses. In oil spill we got some oil and a container of water and poured the oil in the water, then we tried to clean the water with sponges, cotton balls and spoons. Nothing worked. Then we watched a video of people cleaning the ocean. I don't think I will ever come up with an idea like the idea the people had on the

Food for Thought

 Food for Thought

Last week my class and I did food for thought. Abi (the Food for Thought lady) taught me that Coco Puffs had 34.8 GRAMS of SUGAR!!! My favorite part of it was eating an apple at the Four Square. I would DEFINITELY do it again.
