Circle Vocabulary Puzzle- Maths T3W10

Today for maths we were learning about Radius, Diameter, Circumference Chord and Tangent. I learned what all of this means. After we did a little practice on drawing it using a compass we had the chance to make a puzzle based on it. It was so much fun making it because at the end I got to complete it.

Round Robin Writing.

Reflections on Round Robin Writing:

In my group, it was lakai and me. We wrote a story about roosters and man named Jeff. I thought it was a very good idea because it was so much fun. It was fun because everyone’s ideas was combined with ours . I enjoyed this writing so much. I think that we should do this again because everyone learns more and also they get more ideas to use in their writing.

Maths- Perpendicular.

This morning we learned about how to draw a Perpendicular. It was my first time drawing one. It was hard at first because I used a compass and I dont use compasses that often. I learned so much about Perpendicular and it was so much fun.

The Hurricane.

The Hurricane.

The wind howled menacingly like a wolf at the full moon. Lightning licked across the evil sky: a serpent’s tongue tormenting the clouds. The Earth began to shatter.

As we hopped into the police car, we rushed to go and close the roads before more accidents happen. As we stood near the News Reporter a lot of trees fell. Minutes I heard a loud noise. The type of noise when hot water is poured on top of ice cubes.

After one hour a building collapsed and fell on a lot of cars that were outside. A Lot of people got injured and some died. I quickly rushed and helped others get out of there car. The wind blew us back. Bang Bang! Lightning stroke the tree and fell on one of the policeman. Everyone was terrified.

As I ran to help the others and rush of wind flew past me. I tried my hardest to lift the big branch up and I couldn’t because it was to heavy.

I then went and got machete and tried to chop the branch but it took for ages. I didn’t have that much power to keep chopping it.

I then decided to run to the other side of the building and run for some help. When I got help I told them to help me lift the tree to get the police officer out but, a big wave an size of a building came our we tried our best to take him out and get him to a high building. Luckily we got on top and survived.

How Maui brought fire to the world.

Warriors

 Yesterday members of the Warriors team came to our school to talk about things like hydration, sleep and belonging. We played many games on them. Most people got prizes and some didn't. The people that came was Junior and Zach. I enjoyed them coming because i learned alot of things from it.

Tongan Language Week.

This week is Tongan Language week and we are celebrating it. Our school decorated the foyer with Tongan things like Tau'vala, Kie Kie, Kava, Tongan Oil, Tongan Fan and so much more. When I saw those things it made me think about how proud I am to be a Tongan. To live harmoniously in a NZ multicultural society I would try and make people not judge each other.

Science Expo.

Today we had science expo in the hall. Room8 and Room7 were that last classes to look at the things that were made in the hall because we had dance practice. When we went there I saw alot of interesting simple machines like the pulley and the wheel and axle. I enjoyed looking at them and also knowing how to work them.
