20,000 Leagues Under The Sea


Narrative: They have just made it to land after two months three main people are Captain Nemo, Ned Land and the Canadian harpooner. 

Narrative :the canadian harpooner found some cocoa-tree he beat down some of the fruit   and broke them they drank the milk and ate the cocoa-nut nut 

Ned Land: Excellent!

Captain Nemo: Nemo: Exquisite!

Canadian: I do not think that he would object to our introducing a cargo cocoa-nuts on board.

Ned Land :I  do not think he would, but he would not taste them.

Captain Nemo : So much the worse for him.

Ned land:  And so much the better for us.

Ned Land: Before filling the canoe with them it would be wise to reconnoitre not less useful vegetables would be welcome on board the Nautilus  

Captain Nemo: master is right

My science inquiry week 1 and 2

Last Monday week one we started our science project. We are learning about the changes of states and matter. For my science inquiry Tom, Ryley and I are making ginger beer.  We have some of the things that we need to make the ginger beer but still not there yet. In a couple of weeks I think we can make the ginger beer. The picture above is the start of my info graphic.

Matariki-Mu Torere

Last Thursday for Matariki we had shared lunch and then did activities to support Matariki. Tom and I did Nogo's activity of Mu Torere which is a Maori chess game where you try and block your opponent from moving. The names I learnt from the game were putahi(centre), kawai(outside) perepere(counters).

It is a very easy game to learn but you need to think ahead 2-3 moves.

I am finding that Matariki is becoming popular each year and I hope that there is a National holiday because of it.


Maths-Geometry-Compass Work

In math I have have been doing compass work. I learnt how to draw circles using a compass, the last time I did it was in Year 6.

Yesterday I did art with a compass it was fun but challenging. I had several attempts at first but then I got the hang of it. I have attached pics of my work and attempts.

my prize giving



On Sunday I attended my cricket prize giving. You could feel the electricity in the air as
players prizes give you bragging rights for the year. I could feel butterflies in my tummy
and my body trembling with excitement because I wasn’t sure of how well I’d do with prize . got fielder of the year and got over 30 runs. After the prize giving we went outside and played cricket and went on the bounce castle witch was the titanic so that was fun.
