Top Teams 2021 Term 1

Today our school did the Top Teams challenge. We were split Into groups of six

and we did nine challenges, at the end they announced the winners and the top three. My 

favourite activity was the Burst Pipe where you had to float a small ball out of the pipe that had holes In It. The whole school gave It a go and all had a great time doing the challenges.

 

World Wildlife day

 At school we had world wildlife day where we dressed up as Jungle and Forest Animals. Then we did an art project using any Jungle/Forest Animal, we used crayons and dye, to complete the looks. Here is the picture that I made, a panther.We all did a picture, there were Elephants, Giraffes and even Pandas, all the drawings that they did were amazing.

Fibonacci Work

So in our class we have been learning about Fibonacci. Fibonacci is like spiral stuff like on a flower where all the nectar is stored or a sprouting koru. So our class tried it and here is my one.

my one is a blocky spiral using the Fibonacci number as long as my page would let it. Of course it isnt the greatest but i did try my best. Everyone tried thier best and they turned out amazing.

Sailing

on Monday our class and the class bellow us went sailing on lake Brunner for an hour and 30 minutes. it was really fun but it was a bit scary but here is a picture.

we learned about lots of things like the centreboard,main sheet and the rudder. at one point when we where sailing we had to capt  side our boats which  was a bit scary but fun but i got lots of water in my sleeve and we had so much fun.

Camp Post

for the Te Kinga and Kotuku trip we went to Arthurs pass outdoor education centre and the mt cheeseman lodge. At the education centre we looked for lots of kea's and other amazing native birds but I must say that the beds where uncomfortable but the food was amazing.

 At the cheeseman lodge the beds were quite nice and the food was great and our principle  brought  some little sleds for us to slide on. It was fun skiing at cheeseman and we slid down on the little sleds that I mentioned before. Overall camp  was awesome great foods and good beds it was a bit cold but it was fun.

Maths Weight Experiment

For maths this week we did a weight experiment on making paper boats and seeing how many marbles we could fit in the boat until it sank . We made big boats at first that fit more marbles. the first time i got 46 marbles that weighed 250 grams. Then we tried them with a smaller boat and i managed 20 and it weighed 125 grams. When we did that we took photos. It was good fun doing the origami and because i got there in the end.
