Tea Cups

This week we have been doing a math's task in math's. The rules were you cant have the same cups and plates in the same row and collum. It took me 2 days to figure it out, it was really really hard to figure a stratagie out.

The hard part was figuring out how to do a statigie and getting it right.

The easy part was finally getting help and figuring it out.

Here is a picture of the tea cups.

Keeping our self safe

This week we have been keeping our self's safe. The situation is: The baby-sitter touched you inappropriately what do you do? we had to right down what are the options

The hard part was putting the red diamonds on the corner of the descion making boxes.

The easy part was writing the options in the boxes.

My independent maths

This is my independent maths slide. On here I put my independent work on the slide so the teacher can see what I have been doing.

The hardest part about this was putting the work on the slide.

The easy part was making it look good after the work.

Surfing

Last Friday we went out to Sumner beach to surf. The surf instructors taught us how to surf and body board. After that we put on our wet suits to be ready to go out. Mrs Mcguinuety's class went out first, and Miss Goslin's class went last. Before that the surf instructor said to us your a dolphin or a seal. I was a dolphin. I am in Miss Williamson's class so I went down to the beach second.

When I go down to the beach the people who are dolphins go body boarding, and the people who are seals go surfing.

I like body boarding more because you go fast on the waves, and its not as hard as surfing.

The hardest part was surfing because, you had to stand up on the board, and I keeped on falling of because I don't have a lot of balance on the board.

The body board was way easier because you just had to lye down on the board and put your hands on the nose of the board and you get pushed by the waves and you go really fast.

I wish I could do this one more time because I love the beach because of the waves and the hot sand.

Athletics

Today we competed in our school athletics competition. My favorite events were Sprints, Cross - country and High - jump. I did the best in Sprints, High - jump and Cross - country. I found it hard to keep a good pace in Cross - country because I was puffing a lot. The essayist event for me was sprints because its nice and short.

I came 2nd in Sprints, 4th in High - jump and 7th in cross country.

Maori

Kei hea te kuri           Kei hea a Miss Willamson? 

Where is the dog?                 Where is Miss Willamson? 

Today we have been learning a bit of te reo Moari.

Our teacher Miss Willamson handed out this Moari word sheet.

If its a person its a exg: Kei hea a Miss Wilamson like I did at the top. If you're looking for something its te for exg: Kei hea te kuri like I did at the top.

The hardest part about this was pronouncing the Moari words.

The easy part was writting the words down on the sheet because the words were up on the tv screen

Here is a picture of the sheet...

   

Spiraling Decimals

In math's today we were playing a game called Spiraling Decimals. On the sheet you could chose what decimal you want to put on the spiral. You each get a turn of putting decimals on the spiral. To win you need to get 3 in a row you could ither choose a circle to be your mark or a line. Mine was a circle and my friends mark was a line.

The hardest part about this activity was getting 3 in a row because it really easy to block your opponents decimal because that's what my friend done to me. In the end I won 1 and he won 1

The easy part was estimating where the decimal land on the spiral, because you could start at the start and go around the spiral counting in 5s or 100s if you're got a big decimal.

For me I dident know a stratige because I just learnt the game I just really put it in random places and tried to block my friend from getting 3 in a row.

In this picture I won
