Learning how to think by using double, double, double.





We are learning how to solve hard math problems by using screencastify and by using double, double, double.
I found it all little easy and a little hard because I didnt get any instructions on what to do, I found it a little easy because I like trickey maths questions because it gives me a challenge.
Next time I would like to do harder questions and I would like to do more doubling because it ts so fun.

Auckland Zoo - Community

We have been looking at structures, and ways to make fun.






Today we were at the Zoo, my favourite space was Africa because the colors and the vibe it gives me is so peaceful. My favourite animal is a Lion because the lion is courageous, strong, powerful, a leader, has many talents and is the king of the jungle.







Next time I would like to visit the nocturnal animals to New Zealand because we did not have enough time to see them.

 

Oobleck or Putty for a foundation

What makes a good structure?

We compared Oobleck and Putty for a building. 
When I  touched the Oobleck my hand slowly sunk right down to the bottom of the container, when I touched the Putty my hand pressed down through it. 
When I squeezed the Oobleck it felt like hard playdoh, when I squeezed the Putty it looked for a way out of my hand and oozed out. 
When I poured the Oobleck it looked like rain drops dripping down windows, when I poured the Putty it was moving to the other end of the container and it was moving ten times slower than a snail.
When I punched the Oobleck it did nothing and kind of hurt my hand, when I punched the Putty it just stuck to my hand.
When I  pressed the Oobleck into a ball it crumbled, when I pressed the Putty into a ball it did nothing.
 and what happened when we spread it out.

The legend about the Rhino

One hot, bright, sunny day a Rhino was dragging himself through the desert trying to find some water and grass. “Wow I finally found it, I finally found a Savanna with water and a big lovely patch of grass!!”
But when he bent down to get a drink of water, a giant cage fell on top of him trapping his small stubby horn in between mans bars.

The Rhino tried to escape but he just couldn't so he kept trying to escape.” It's no use I'm gonna be stuck here forever and die with my horn in mans cage.”

Suddenly when the Rhino leaned back his horn slipped out of mans bars. But the Rhinos horn started swelling up and it ended up gigantic. But by the time Rhino got out of the cage, man had already fled off.

So now Rhino hunts everyday trying to get revenge on man and hides in the shadows of the humongous jungle.

Bunny/Rabbit masks and research


We are learning about the Zoo animals so I am researching about bunnies and rabbits and what are the differences between wild, feral and domesticated rabbits.
I found it hard to search up some of the activities because I didn't know what to type in the text box.
Next time I would like to learn about a different animal, what is the difference between two types of the same animal. 

Writing Dialogue


We are learning how to use dialogue so we can use it in our stories, we are learning how to use speech marks and other punctuation.
I found it easy to complete this, I use speech marks all the time in my stories so it was very easy.
Next time I would like to learn how to use more dialogue in my speech and in stories.

Camp Adair Trip - LAMN Programme



Eight of my class including me went to camp Adair on a trip for a school programme and it was so fun.

We were learning how to co - operate while working together.
I found it fun to play in the mud and challenge my friends to race in the mud.#
Next time I would like to have more races and go on the mud slide a lot more.
