Holiday Reflection.

I feel superb because this is probably the best year I've ever had. The most satisfying thing I've done this year was camp, camp was overwhelming we had an awesome time their. What I found frustrating this year was probably testing I wish I wouldn't have done better in my test. If in have to rate myself I'll have to say 7/10 because I don't think  I've tried my hardest this year.What I've contributed in was being a camp leader, what I have learnt about being a leader was leading my team and talking with my group.

In 2016 I would change by upgrading my behaviour and also managing my learning and focusing on my future. What I want my teacher for next year to know is that I am sometimes off task in class. Things that I will need more help with will probably be reading and writing because I haven't been doing my best in any of these subjects.What I would show my teacher from my blog will probably be showing her my previous posts and show her how we post on your blog.

Special time with friends or class mates

Yesterday after morning tea we had a special fun day, but none of us knew what the fun day was going to be. We walked In to change into our P.E gear. When we all finished I  strolled into the street for a quick heads up on the fun day. We had talked about all the great stations that we a going to go too. Rapidly everyone had to go into your rooms because we had suddenly all been split into A and B teams.

First we had been given a little chart for  which station we will be attending first. Me and my group of 5 travelled to class 2 for brain bust.Mrs Clark was waiting for us.There were some tricky questions that needed participaction and teamwork. Carefully me and my group members solved out 2 questions, but the last one we needed help. It seemed to be a mathematical question. It looked easy but when mrs clark explained it , we didn't know a thing. “ Times Up guys ” said Miss clark. We gave our remaining answers to Miss clark and dashed to the next station.

Then we got your next station which looked very fun which was the photo booth which was runned by Mrs Tele’a. She gave us instructions and then she sent us away we maybe have went to the best place, In the green room. there was heaps of costumes to dress In too. It took us a while to find the right costume. When we dressed into it Ana and Angelina came In to take our photo. There were 3 shots we had to take. first one was a smile one , second one was a serious one and then the last one was a crazy one. Then without remembering we had to do a made up one. We had no clue what we we're gonna do so we just did a superman one. Once our time was up we had to get change and walk to your following station

Next we got to our next station which was the cookie face. This seemed like a fun game. Instructing this game was Mrs Flavel , she told us what to do with the cookie. “ First Five up ” said Mrs flavel we moved up we had to lean your foreheads back and place the cookie on our forehead and try and get it into your mouth. I wasn't so good at this game, I was the first one to drop my cookie. Once we got through everyone , we did are group vs group such the whole of a vs the whole of b. once everyone finished , Mrs flavel let us eat the cookies. Then once again we had to move to the next station.

When we arrived to the pea pipe we didn't have a clue why it was called pea pipe. But then when Miss Misela and Miss Hockly showed us we knew why it was called that name. Because you had to get a straw and then you have to suck up the pea so it will stay at the tip of the straw and then you have to walk without dropping the peas, walk and put the peas into a bowl. The group with most pea’s win points for their team.

Then they have announced the winners for the pea pipe game and unfortunately it was my group. The sad news was we didn't have enough time to go to the next station so we packed up and went back to class.

Best Holiday!!!!!!! 3/14/10

Starting off the holidays. I stayed at home for about five days and I felt boring as. then my Aunty took me and my other cousins to the ten pin bowling and the arcade. As we got home I said to myself “ The holidays are going super fast ”. When I woke up I asked what is the date today and she told me it was the fifth. “ WOW it's already the second week of the holidays and we have planned heaps of stuff to do.

Finally it was the day i’ve been waiting for this day for ages because some of my cousins from aussie had come over. When we left too go to parakai pools we had something to eat. After when we got to the pools we had to wait a little bit before we went in. A while later when we just came off the slide and finished swimming and bombing. We had a final snack and went home......

When we got home we just went sleep.....

        

Lost bike..... Rip Bike.......

As I was pedalling home from my friends house on my bike. It was 6.00 o'clock as I quickly rushed  home so I don't miss dinner. I felt lonely as I was riding back in the dark. I really wanted to get home before someone comes out of nowhere and take my blue bmx bike.

I finally got home in time when they just started eating, I ran in the house without thinking that my precious bike was unsecured. When I finished I just went into my room and went sleep without putting my bike away.When I woke up I looked outside to see if my bike was still their. But then I couldn't see anything, I rushed outside and still no notice of the bike. I  looked everywhere I could think of. I was very disappointed about myself. I went to my friends house to ask if he's seen my bike and he said “nope”.Then I told my uncle if we can go look for it. So we did and we looked everywhere still no sign of the bike.

Now I know that next time I'll put my valuables in a safer and secured place.   

The End ....... Dun Dunn Dunnnnnnn..........

How to prevent yourself from getting sick.

I will be explaining how to prevent yourself from getting sick. I will be explaining the importance of healthy food, being clean and being warm and dry. This means staying in bed under blankets and wearing warm clothing. If you do that you're body will be normal and  you will be hydrated such as drinking hot coffee or hot stuff too calm down you're body.

One of the easiest ways of staying healthy is eating a balanced range of food. This means eating from the 5 food groups with a focus on fruits and vegetables. If you do that then your body will receive all the nutrients it needs to be in the best condition to fight off invading germs.

Group one :To avoid yourself from getting sick is not share food and drinks with other people. This means don’t eat after someones taken a bite from a sandwich. It can spread germs into you body and make you sick. Don’t drink someone else’s beverage after they've sipped it. Especially if they've sipped it from a straw. Don’t lick,bite or sip from anyone's food or beverage. If you want to prevent yourself from doing this then you will be able to stop yourself from getting sick and spreading bacteria. If you’re smart enough, tear out the part where they've bitten.

Another way for preventing yourself from becoming sick If you kiss or Hug  sick people you never know happen because you are just putting sickness into your body and you're body won't help it then you might even come up with a massive sickness. Hugging sick people maybe give you a ticket to the hospital and you might.

So now you know how to prevent yourself from getting sick , main ideas are staying warm and also don't touch public objects such as currency because you don't no how many people have touched this object.

Technology Good or Bad.

In the war, Mr Burt ( Principal ) walked into the our learning area to talk to us. He said that his grandfather was living when the first world war one was about to begin. He was one of the first boys to have a bicycle's.

The English side keep talking about how good there ships were and how they will blow up the Germans. But then the Germans looked at the news and made their ship. Then every time the English had made an awesome gun or tank it was always appeared in the newspaper and the Germans found out , and the Germans copyed what the English had made but much better.

To Be Contiuned

Anzac Memorial.

Every year on the 25th of April,  we celebrate the soldiers that went to war. Thinking about the soldiers that have sacrificed their lives for us. It is also known as ‘ANZAC Day’. But this years Anzac day is more special than all of the pass Anzac days we have been Celebrating.

Because on 2015 is the 100th anniversary of the First World War One. There will be a big stone called cenotaph at the Auckland museum which has all of the soldiers that went to war and fought for our country.

When I sat down thinking about all of the soldiers names on their crosses.

It was emotional to see how much soldiers lives have been sacrificed on the field with white crosses. Its a travesty to see your dad or a friend to die in a battle.

Its very hard to hear that one of your family members had past their lives at war. Especially the kids that a living without a father or a mother, that's a  bit devastating living without a husband. It might have been peaceful in the homes that have lost lives because kids will be depressing.

     

Adding Decimals

In the following problems, add the numbers using tidy whole number and compensating to solve the problems below.  Then, CREATE a problem of your own and explain how you solved it step by step on your BLOG.

Example: ? + 3.98 = 7.04 3.98 + ?  = 7.04 3.98 + 0.02 =4.0         4 + 3 =7    7 +.0.04 = 7.04 So ? = 3.06

1. 4.64 + 5.36  = 10.87 4. 7.33 + 26.21 = 34.54

 

2. 8.23 + 4.43 = 13.56         5. 22.38 + 43.26 = 65.64

3. 3.39 + 11.14 = 14.53 6. 14.10 + 84.74 = 98.84

       5.15.15+ 4.98 = 20.20

           +0.2

15.15 + 5.05 = 20.20

Adding Decimals

          My made up question -

                                                    147.8 + 245.9 = 394.7

                                                    100.0 + 200.0 = 300.0

                                                     40.0 + 40.0 = 80.0

                  7.8 + 5.9 = 14.7

What is did was first I added 100 + 200 = 300 then I did 40 + 40 = 80 after that I went 7.8 + 5.9 = 14.7 then I added all of the answers together then the answer is 394.7
