Our class takes turns to write about the things we are doing in our classroom and around the school. We hope you enjoy finding out about our learning at school.
Thumper cost 0 dollars because she was a gift from my mums friend. We lost 3 rabbits from the calicivirus in the ground. Now we live in Nelson we don't need to worry about it. My mum says that there is no calicivirus in Nelson. We let thumper run around inside. She turns 8 months on 11th we will breed her when we get a male rabbit.
Yesterday I went on a mission to save a persons life . I went in a submarine because I had to go inside him . I shrunk the submarine because I had to fit in . Yay I got in now I had to find his heart because he had asthma at his heart . I got to his heart before he died . Yay I saved his life mission accomplished .
On Thursday we did science experiments . Bradley and Connor did a volcano experiment . How did they do it? First they got what they needed to get for the volcano experiment and they used baking powder and vinegar for the volcano eruption. Tayla and Ilaria did a ballon experiment . They put confetti in the balloon. Then Tayla popped the ballon and the confetti went everywhere. Imagine if this was you sneezing! Cadey and Brittney did the magnet rubber and they had to play diffrent DVDs and CDs and video tapes. Brandon and Jacob blew up a ballon by making a yeast mixture and the carbon dioxide that came off it blew up the balloon. Taine and Daniel made a bed of spikes for a balloon to lie on. Tia and Cody sucked an egg nearly into a bottle! Maya and Shania are investigating finger prints. Kaileb and Eli played tuneful bottle sounds using different water levels. Jackie and Hannah created lots of electricity. Jake and Josh played with bubbles. jasmin and Chantelle created their very own stethoscope. Adam and Kalum created a hydraulic jack and lifted a book. Ashley is testing our memories. Myles and Clay propelled a car with balloon air. Lily and Alexis made a coin wobble from expansion of air.
Imagine what it was like in our classroom last week!
Room 10 made taniwha prints with Matt Witty. It was fun to see what they ended up looking like. There were lots of different colours and very interesting prints. They came out super colourful . We wrote out the instructions and publish in to our personal folders. By Bradley and Hannah
On Tuesday we went to Cross Country. We were n the competitive so we had to go longer than the rest of our class. We had to run up the hill and then down, making it a full lap of the field. Jake came third and Brittney came third also so both of us are going to the Interschool's cross country. By Jake and Brittney
Today some of the Nayland College students came over and did some cool sport with us . Today I was good at basketball & joggling & passing & I had a good time . By Ilaria & Caroline
When Nayland Primary went to the stopping demonstration just up the road there were dummys on the road. The people in the car went at different speeds. The first one was 20 kilometers, then 50, and last was 60. Then they crashed into 1 of the dummys and they did a big skid. Inside the dummys was a little plastic bag of food colouring and when the car hit the dummy the bag of food coloring went all over the window screen and the teachers in the car were scared.
We learnt that children have to not run out onto the road because it can be hard for cars to stop!
