Maths class

In the past 2 weeks I have been working with

5 girls like always Emma, Eva, Manaia-Jae Shaie

and our teacher Miss Fleet. 

Miss Fleet teaches us after morning tea when the

rest of our class is doing ssr which stands for

sustainable silent reading.

I do really like reading but these past weeks have

been really helpful with our maths.

We have been learning about algebra, decimals,

fractions and other things like that.

We have been using things like money, fraction

papers, decimal papers and blank paper to help learn

this stuff.

I think this is a really good opportunity for me

and my friends to get better at maths and the

activities she sets us up with are actually pretty fun. 

Film making

Recount

Me and my friends Shaie Eva Emma and Manaia-Jae
were in a team to make a film in around 2 hours. We had to

come up with our own topics and it had to be no longer
than 1 minute.

My friends and I were thinking of the topics we thought of
kindness and ninjas so we did tweenage mutant ninja
humans. After we found our topic we raced outside and
on to the playground. I found it embarrassing so I filmed it.
So I was the director Emma, Eva and Manaia were ninjas and

Shaie was the bad guy that killed Manaia.

Part 1 Shaie pushing Manaia off the playground and we
got two different angles of that scene. Part 2 Emma and
Eva fighting Shaie. Part 3 Shaie got knocked out. Part
4 Shaie getting dragged around the school. Part 5 Putting

Shaie in the back room. When everyone had finished
getting there footage it was time to go inside and edit.
We were editing for about half an hour.

When everyone had finally finished there films it was
time to share with the class we were presenting ours
first everyone was laughing at the funny

scenes we put in and when it had finished the teacher
asked us to play it again cause the class really liked
it after everyone had shown there films the teacher
asked us to share ours with her so she could have a copy.

All the teams did a really good job with there film and
I really hope we can make another film one day because
my team and I have already come up with our next topic.

Building a catapult

Team building

Walt show our school values during team building

Today for team building Emma, Eva and I worked together to make a catapult.
At first we had to come up with a design so we made a box catapult then we tested them all out.
The second time the teacher let us watch a video so that meant that everyone would make the same catapult so we wanted to be unique so we used pens to draw on our marshmallows because none of us really like marshmallows. Our first catapult shot the marshmallow pretty far but the second one wasn't very good because I didn't pull the spoon back far enough. This project was really fun and I think we are pretty proud of ourselves.
