Mad About Science

WALT  We are learning to predict and explain what is happening during our science experiments. 

What did you enjoy most about our science experiments? From the first one was when we used the dish washing liquid on a stick. because the fat runs away and starts to find each other. Then I started to mix it around. It started to turn grey with a little bit of red. I mixed it a bit more and turned brown!

The next one was crawling colours. It is made like this. first you get some water, 4 strips of paper and some food colouring. Now you get the cups and the food colouring pour the food coloring into the cup grab the paper, put it in between the cups leave it for thirty minutes and the water should travel into the empty cups. Here are some photos of the day.

Thank You Note to Whaea G

 We made a thank you note to whaea g because she has had us for two weeks. Now she is going to the kaitaia intermediate. She was a REALLY, really, really great teacher. We also made thank you letters here is my one.

  I got to share my one because it was very thoughtful and generous 

What did I do well? My letter.  what was tricky? Nothing is it was really easy. what can I do better next time? Nothing really.  

Raranga Matihiko - Waitangi visit

This is my picture of my pou that I made at the Waitangi treaty grounds. 

I made it on Sculpt GL. Sculpt GL is a type of computer app that allows you to make a awesome 3D computer generated design and print it out of the 3D printer out of an object. There is some other app's that we used to make things. They are tinkercad, book creator, V.R.  

What did I do well? My pou What was tricky? Thinking on how I am going to make it. What can I do better next time? Making the pou because it took me for ever to make it. 

My Coopers Beach Camp 2020

 On Friday my class and Te Tinana went to the youth camp at coopers beach for two and a half days. We did HEAPS of things. As in going to the beach, flying through the the obstacle course, speeding down the hydra slide, playing slippy hockey and going kayaking. This is my slide deck that I made about the camp.    

What did I do well? Finding the shapes to mask these images. What was tricky?  finding the images.  What can I do better next time? get it finished a little bit faster next time. 

Kuaka Poster

 We are learning to use visual language features to support our understanding of the ideas and information in the text.

What did you enjoy? connecting the lines to make the email without knowing. What was tricky? getting the ideas without looking at a example.

Reflection - What did you enjoy? Connecting the lines. What was tricky? trying to think of an answer to answer this question. What can you do better next time? do a little bit more
