Rubbish Art

Hola everyone, this term for the art show we are going to make a building out of wood and put our soft plastic rubbish inside. We are going to see how much soft plastic rubbish Waikowhai Primary School has collected over 8 weeks time. Here is a slideshow explaining what to put in the soft plastic bin and what not to put in the soft plastic bin.

Thanks for viewing my blog and looking at the Installation Art I made. We also told everyone in the school what to put in the soft plastic bin. Here is me explaining it to other kids: 

This work looks like it will be very useful and fun in the future.

Thanks for looking at my blog post and comments are appreciated! 😀👍

ANZAC Day

This year's ANZAC Day fell in the holidays. We have been reading books about ANZAC Day and about how animals saved the day or something like that. ANZAC stands for Australia, New Zealand Army Corps. This happened in WW1 and they were fighting for space in Germany. For this piece of work we had to find the differences in the two books that we red. Here are photos of the two books: 

This is one of the work pieces that we did: 

I learnt a lot from the ANZAC Day things. Also the books were awesome! Hope you liked my work! Blog Ya Later! 😃👍

Bus Stop - Inquiry

In Inquiry we went around about 10 stops writing our ideas and our ideas from the internet on 10 different pieces of paper. We then got the one we started on and made anything to present it. Here is our group presenting it... 🙁😕😐

This work was insanely challenging because we had about 1 hour to do all this so we just stood still blank like half the time 🙁😕😐. Please leave a comment and thanks for checking out my blog!

Australia Trip

This is my learning of a different kind:
Last week we flew to Australia and had an amazing time! Although half of the trip it was raining, we still went to 3 theme parks! We first went to Sydney to check out the Sydney Opera House:

Then we flew to the Gold Coast because that's where the theme parks are. We went to Sea World, Wet 'n' Wild Waterpark and Whitewater World/Dreamworld. Most of them were waterparks because I love rides that involve water. Also there was this amazing place called Max Brenner's Chocolate Bar, it had the best chocolate fondue ever! I nearly had it every day! We stayed in an apartment building and under us was a shopping mall and a pool! It was amazing. The thing I am still scared of are spiders and bugs in Australia. It was an amazing trip! I was really depressed when we had to get home 👎. Please leave a comment! Blog Ya Later!!!

Shark Infographic

A few days ago we started making an info graphic about sea animals. We added interesting facts about the animal, and mine was about a shark. We had to go on google and find out facts about sharks. We searched multiple websites to find our information then we put it all in one info graphic. Here, have a look!

This work was fun and challenging. I found out lots of things, like vending machines kill more people than sharks do! It's crazy! Anyways, Thanks for checking out my blog and please leave a comment! 😀👍

Monday Fun Day / Wheels Day

Hey guys, on Monday it was Wheels Day. We all brought our bikes, scooters, skateboards, rip sticks and even Pogo sticks! It was an awesome day! We also got to go on the slip n slide. We didn't go as fast as last time though. At the gala we incredibly fast because they put more soap on. We also had a change over so we were waiting and watching for our turn to get in the pool. Here are some pictures.

It was incredibly fun and most people brought their wheels and played for the rest of the day. I think we should have more of these kind of days.

Te Tiriti o Waitangi

Bonjour Bloggers! In reading we read about the Treaty of Waitangi and we also did a piece of work on the Treaty of Waitangi. Here have a look! Here is a picture of the book that we read. 😀

If you didn't know the Treaty of Waitangi is a treaty made by the British and signed by the Maori, But there were a few mistakes while translating it to Maori which caused confusion between them. I think this is important to read about because this is part of NZ history.

I also learnt that a hui is a meeting or assembly in Maori.

Thank you for reading my post and please leave a comment!
