Camp Poem

Camp

The camp was so boring that everyone fainted.

The camp was as awesome as going on an adventure.

The trip was exciting waiting for what's in store for you at your destination.

We couldn’t wait to go on a new experience to have a cool camp.

The Water Slide was cold as ice

The rafting was as tiring as doing cross country

Where Im From Poem

   Where I’m From

I am from the early sun over mount ruapehu and the peaceful batch.

I am from the crying sister that expects everything that she wants.

I am from the scorching days on the farm, hanging out and having a good time

I am from the fun days on the mount skiing with frozen toes.

I am from the crispy bacon salt and peppered with eggs on toast.

I am from the early wake and good day surfing at the beach catching waves

I am from the relaxation as the sun goes down with a hot chocolate.

Road Trip

This is my road trip. We had to create a road trip in New Zealand that took less than 14  days. You had to choose a car that you were going to drive in and find out the mileage. You had to find out how much the activity's and places you sleep at cost. You were only allowed to drive 5 hrs per day. Here is mine!

Rainbows End Reveiw

This is my Rainbows End review. For this task, you had to choose one of the places you were going to on our Road trip.  You had to find out some bad reviews and good. You then had to do a summary about it. Here is my one on Rainbows End.

Predator

This is my predator. We had to research the predator, then present it. We had to have a couple of questions. The we had to answer them

Prey

Here is my prey. We had to pick a animal that our predator that we researched eats. I chose to reasearch the buffalo because my predator was a crocodile. Here is my prey.

Pick a Path

Here is my pick a path, we based it on SSVI, room sixes spaceship. Our spaceship is as big as our school. It fits over 500 people. We had to- make a pick a path about the spaceship and finding a new planet.

Leave Rubbing

Here is some of my art, in term 4. On the left is my texture rubbing, where you you got a crayon, peice of paper and a leave. You put a leave under the peice of paper and then rub a crayon on the paper of the leave section.

Unsustainable Earth Presentation

This term we have been doing sustainability and we had to get into groups and choose a topic and my group chose to do overpopulation. We had to research the reasons and facts about overpopulation.

Measuring Triangles Angles

Angle	Triangle 1	Triangle 2	Triangle 3
A	55	40	45
B	60	65	90
C	65	75	50
Total	180	180	185

In term 4 we have been doing measurement of angles. We had to cut triangles out of a peice of paper then we had to measure them with a protractor to measure the angles of the triangle. we had to put a b c on the angles of the triangle. Once we got the results we added up all the results and then put it on a table.

Pop Art Nelson Mandela

On our changemaker we did some pop art, we had to find a picture of the person and then we used a website that Mr Billings found. The website canged the pictures into diffrent colours then we printed out the pictures, there were 6 pictures. We cut the pictures any way we could. We then found different coloured pictures that fitted eachother. We then put it onto black paper! My changemaker was Nelson Mandela.

Maths Tangerines Reid

In class we had to choose if we were going to have a tangerine or lemon. Our group chose to do tangerines and we had to get the amount of pips, we had to weigh the peel and we had to weigh the tangerine without the peel. We then gathered our ideas together and put it into a graph. Then we had finished.

How Wolves Change Rivers

In term 4 we have been doing summerising on how wolves change rivers, first we had to watch the video a couple of times to understand the video. Then we had to listen to the video then put notes of what is happening in the video.
Here are my notes:
How wolves change rivers
The discovery of tropic cascade
Starts at top of food chain and goes down to the bottom
Yellowstone park in USA
Wolves were reintroduced in 1995
Wolves give life to many other things
Wolves had been absent for 70 years
The deer started to increase from the absence of wolves
Deer ate all vegetation
They killed deer so the vegetation would increase

Maths Term 3

Advertisement reflection

How did we grab people’s attention right from the beginning?  Having us do a dance to a song to make them want to watch more later in the video.

Was our content relevant to our political party policies? Yes because every person from the group said a policy.

How did we give our audience a good idea about what our policies are? b Yes because at the end we said all our policies clearly

How was our ad value for money? Was just right so we didn't go bankrupt and we didn't spend much money. We left enough money for our ad before we did it and it was the right amount of time we wanted

What was successful about our ad? We got to say our policy's and we got to say why we wanted you to vote for us.

If we could change anything what would we do differently next time? Make the video more about what we are about and make the video have things about food.

What skills will I need to improve on to do this? Forgetting about doing silly things and do things that will help them find out more about us.

Here is our ad!!!!!!!

White Mouse Supply Canister

In class we have been doing a white mouse unit with Nancy Wake in World War II. For one of the tasks we had to get into pairs and get a bottle and make a supply canister. Once we got the shape we wanted the bottle in we inserted pictures of what we think would be in a supply canister. Then we printed them out and put them in the bottle

Maths, Bottle Volume Vs Height

In maths in the last few weeks we have been learning how to measure the volume and weight of the water in a bottle. So I had a 500ml bottle and we took out 50mls, then another 50mls and each 50mls we measured how much of a gap there was without the water in cm. Then at the end we got all our results and put them into order then we put it into a graph.

P.E (Social Dance)

For P.E this term we have been doing social dance as we are going to be having the social in term 4. There are heaps of dances we have got through and they are all enjoyable. Here are the names of some of the dances we have done. Line Dances: Red Hot, Devil Dance, Coconut Cream and many more. Paired Dances: Gay Gordon, Clap Dance, Cha Cha, Maxina and many more

Rugby 2011 Movie Exposition

Rugby World Cup 2011 Movie

Dear Reader

The action, the suspense, the physical games, the fury,  the rugby world cup 2011 movie!

We would like to recommend a movie about the rugby world cup 2011 so people can relive the experience and feel anticipation of the games.

We would like to help the viewers to see all the great skills they use to maybe help the kids out there to see how much training of the simple skills they have to do because we won’t have awesome All Blacks team the whole time. We are hoping you agree.

The people that haven't seen it can get to see all the games in quality and get to pause rewind and fastforward and the awesome thing is NO ADS! We will also have a special feature of Dan Carters injury and the All Blacks thought of not having him in the world cup because he is one of their star players!

We will have special features of the trainings to see what hard work they have to do to get to their position because it doesn't come by itself. It also will make the kids out there want to be better than they already are.

We will get you on the edge of your seat by the suspense and make you want to watch more.  We want you to feel like you're at the game not on the couch.

At the end we will have features of the winners with all the celebrating they did in their country. Like the winning team holding the world cup in the street parades in all the cities with the fans taking pictures of the players.

Again I hope you agree it will be a great movie to watch we would love you to see a movie about the rugby world cup 2011 to have the experience of a lifetime!

At the start of term 3 for reading in our table groups we have been doing charts to predict what is happening in the picture and what it is about. On the top one we head to predict what you would need and where the place is. The bottom one we had to predict what was happening before, during and after.

Project: Chicken Pox

    For the last few weeks we have been doing projects on diseases and here is my project on chicken pox.
What are chicken pox?

Chicken pox  are a disease that are pimples that can get really itchy and pussy . It is an infection with varicella zoster virus. Some animals like gorillas and chimpanzees get them quite often and you can sometimes catch chicken pox off them.

Why are they called chicken pox?

They are called chicken pox because they looked like chick peas so they made it into chicken pox. And chick peas are a food that are brown. Chicken pox  were called pimples before chickenpox and the have not been called chicken pox for the whole time.

A cool fact:

You will only get chicken pox once in your life if you have the bad

How contagious are they and what can you do to stop them spreading?

Chicken pox are  very contagious and It spreads through sneezing and illness.  You can stop them spreading by not getting to close to the person with the chicken pox and not sharing anything like a drink bottle or something like that with that person.

Do you get them all over your body? You can get them everywhere  on your body and they get really itchy and there lots of them and they can get really big. They can get really big on your head and you can get so many that you can hardly see your skin it just looks like you're really

Sense Of Smell

Smell would save your life. For example. You go to sit on the couch and you notice that you have left the oven on. Then the heat starts a fire and you are concentrating on you favorite program. Then you get a sense of smoke that comes up your nose and see that the oven is on fire and try to put it with a fire extinguisher but you can't so you get out and you are alive.

How you smell

You smell by your repector cells triggering each smell and that it what triggers the smell. Your nose breaths in the air and that is what activates the repector cells. Inside your nose is the olfactory epithelium which means smell device. In the smell device there are more than 10 million scent receptors These receptors can distinguish up to 10,000 different smells. Tiny odor molecules pass through the nose. The receptors send messages to the brain about the smells.
Bogies are helpful

Bogies can help you by keeping dust and pollen out of your lungs and the snot will keep you from getting sick. So dont forget try and keep your snot in your nose not in your mouth!!!

Conclusion

So there you go that is the sense of smell. As you you could see not smell, smell is quite a helpful thing. You may not be alive if you couldn't smell. SO KEEP CARE OF YOUR NOSE!!

REID'S EMBARRASSING MOMENT

We arrived at Meeanee speedway in Hawkes Bay and I was really excited because it was the saloon champs which are really fast cars. We found our seats that looked comfy and a good view of the track it was, My Dad, Sister and I. We hadn't had dinner and we were really hungry. So we bought some chips,drinks, and hot dogs. When we got back to the stands the first race was on it was the mini stocks which i'm going to race in some time soon. They started the race, as usual it was the 5b car of Regan Penn in lead. He has probably learnt from his dad who is Shane Penn, the NZ two time champion for super stocks! In second place was Thomas Rumble who is Joe Farams stepson and has again probably learnt off Joe. In third was Cameron Swift who is Lauren's brother and who knows who he learnt drive from. In the end it was still the same results. I stood up when the super stocks came out and cheered when shane penn drove out and you wouldn't believe what happend. I tripped up with my chips in my hands, landing on someone and getting sauce all over him and on myself. I then stood up again and i tripped up again
