Hurumanu art

In hurumanu we've been doing this kind of stuff, were writing about the story that our group made. So I wrote the whole story that we made I hope you get inspired and I hope you like it.

There was a kid named Matthew who was really upset to what he sees. He saw the lake was full of rubbish and it was very stink. The kid was feeling unhappy for the fish and some animal who lives in the lake. Matthew wanted the environment to be always clean, so he called his 3 friends to help him to clean the lake. Instead of riding a bike and playing games they decided to just help their friend to clean the very stinky dirty lake. 

So they brought a plastic with them and they e After 2 weeks the lake looks beautiful but the smell was still there but it’s not that very stink anymore. When the other people saw the lake they were surprised by what they saw. There was an old man who sees them cleaning the lake so the man tried to find those 4 kids and he saw them in the park playing so the man called them and the man said, “I will buy you all the lollies you want.” They were really happy to what they heard from the man.

The old man brought them to the supermarket to buy the lollies they want, they really enjoyed getting the free lollies and they were really thankful for the old man. The man asked them why they cleaned the lake, they said that they want their country to be clean. The man was surprised to what he heard from them because they were just 8 years old and their mind looks like 18 years old. The man was really happy because he wasn’t expecting that there would be a kids that would do that to just make sure their country was clean and safe.

Maths blogging

Today we did maths so in maths we did problem solving so now we were just doing a blog post about what we've learnt today. So in the white board there's some question that was written up, so now i'm gonna be answering those question that is written up on the board.

What was the activity? So the activity that we did is problem solving with 4 groups of people.

What strategy did your group try? We did adding because it's more easier.

What did you find challenging? The other question were challenging but the other question were not. The most challenging is when you counting up to like hundreds.

How well did your group work together? 

We work pretty well no one is talking about other things they were just talking about what we've been learning.

Were you successful? 

Yes because I always help with the hard question and I always communicate. 

It's Cool To Be Kind

Today we've been working about kindness. So I made a slide about kindness, I think were doing this so that if people went to our blogs they will see this stuff. This is really important to other people mostly to other kids, if they went to our blogs they would see this and maybe someday if they grow up they would do this kind of stuff like helping other people and making others people's day. 

Basketball Winter sport

Last Friday we won our basketball game even though we only have 5 players in our team and we still won. It was a fun basketball season, we all have fun and we did really well. It was very successful basketball year, out team work is very well and our communication in basketball was really great.

I think this basketball season is better than last year. 

I would like to thank all the teachers who supported us in basketball even though it's not part of their job, so I wanna say big thank you to Mr Mitchell, Mrs, Birtch, and Mrs Davis and also our coach Tim. They did really great and they our very supportive.

CIP

Last Wednesday we wrote a letter for the paper plus for the colouring competition. So we requested for a prize for the colouring competition, So we choose Hornby primary to do our challenge. So there will be a group of people who will do the drawing for the Hornby primary student.

So Hornby primary student just need to colour the drawing that  Hornby high school did for them and we will choose who has the most beautiful colour on their drawing and we will give the person a prize who won the colouring competition. The prize that we will give is from paper plus. This is the reason why we request a prize from the paper plus. 

Maths DLO

Hi guys. This my maths DLO. So on this maths DLO I am explaining what I did on the fast few days, so the maths work I'm working on is about taking away just play the slide and you will see what I did. 

I really like this maths work, sometimes it's hard but when you try to learn really hard it will be easier for you to do it.

4. Draw and label the activities you will be involved with.

• Renewable energy sites ( wind, solar, hydro, )
• Living / shelter
• Growing food
• Write 3 sentences about how your group is going to live for the next month.
