Writing about a disgusting sandwich๐Ÿฅช

                       Writing about a disgusting sandwich๐Ÿฅช

Kia ora everyone. Today I am going to be blogging about my favorite piece of writing about a disgusting sandwich. Since we are in lockdown we get online tasks to do. We get reading, writing, and maths. We also get some other fun tasks to do. For our writing we had to write about a disgusting sandwich on earth. I did a really smelly sandwich and it sounded really disgusting. I really enjoyed writing about the disgusting sandwich because it gave us a idea of how to write a recipe for others to follow. The proccess of me learning it is because if I had to write a recipe that I had to share that it means others should follow it and know what to do and do the right thing.

Here is a link to my recipe on my disgusting sandwich on earth. (Don't actually try making it.)

Lockdown level 4๐Ÿคง

  This is unfortunate, going through the same thing? I wonder how to beat this stage? I hope that no one else got infected, I hope it was none of my friends either, I wonder if  the adult survived? ,  looks like we will have to be strong to fight virus, cause if not they will fight back, we've been through this before, we've beaten it once, we need to be healthy and wash our hands before we eat and when we go toilet . this helps from getting you infected and sick so stay healthy and stay in there believe in yourself. Kia kaha New zealand stay safe be kind to each other Bye bloggers stay tuned till my next blog.

How have the ancient games changed to the modern!

                                                         Reading DLO

                              Hello bloggers around the world๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ‘ˆ                            

Today I am blogging about my reading DLO.We have been focusing all over about    olympics, we are focusing about the olympics because we had olympic Tokyo 2021/2020. My focusing question in reading is "How have the ancient game changed back to the modern" and I have been doing some research and I have found out that. In the Ancient Games of the Olympics they did not have medals to congratuate the players from the games.

What they did was that they had a wreath of leaves to give to the players and the heros that game back, I have also found out that the medals that have been won in New Zealand. It was more than the medasl we have ever got 7 gold 6 silvers and 7 bronze so the total would be 20. I really liked making the DLO's because you got to pick anything to do your DLO on like goggle slideshow, Book creator, poster anything you could think of. I have learn't lots from My DLO and the all the facts that were on our site that really helped make my DLO grow lots. Have you done any DLO's or have done focusing questions? 

                                                     (DLO IS DOWN BELOW)

                                                 Hello bloggers around the world๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ‘ˆ 

Today we have been doing Prodecural writing about cultural games, which is traditional games that have been played around the world๐ŸŒ. Or have been played recently. The prodcedure writing I have been focusing on is Ulu-Maika, have you heard of Ulu maika?? Ulu Maika is one of the games that is traditionally played in hawaii the aim of the game is try to make your group win.

How to play the game: First you have to have a lei, coconuts, a small area of the field, stakes that dick into the ground, so you have to stand and then you have to roll the coconuts through the "Gateway Of Havaki" and whover rolls the farthest they win or score a point for their team and thats how you play havaiki.

STEM Waikowhai student led toolkits!!

                                          Hello bloggers around the world๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ‘ˆ

Last week we had our STEM Toolkit which stands for science, Technology, engineering, and mathematics and that was what STEM meant.

There were 24 presenters and 12 toolkits and we had to fill in a goggle form to know which toolkits we were going to be a signed in those 12 toolkits were Drones, Sphero, and Music lab, Webcam toy, Word art, Book creator, Goggle maps Slide animation, MakeyMakey, Piskel Brain box and last but not least Incredibox. All of those were the toolkits that people had to film in and choose on the goggle form.

One of the toolkits I went to goggle slide animation which you can animate the object that you want to move or make it walk for the first few hours of Goggle slide animation I made a car hit a house which was very cool and fun at the same time we all got to cast up our animation project that we did for the toolkit.

The next toolkit I did was Piskel which was a bit like pixel art but the pixels are more smaller the Piskel art taught me how to draw in pixels and for my Piskel art I did a animation as well but you had to add layers to it to make the animation.

                                                                                                                                                             The last toolkit I did was incredibox which you can play music but you have to drag it onto one of the shirtless men and it will make a beat then you can start adding others and it will sound nice we also got to cast up our beats in this one to but I did not want to.

           

                   All thought I thought this was fun and I wish I could do this again.

๐ŸŒŠWater safety-Cameron Pools๐ŸŠ

                                         Hello bloggers around the world๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ‘ˆ

 This term we have been doing swimming at Cameron Pools. For those of you who don't know, Cameron Pools is an indoor swimming center in Mt Roskill. It is operated by YMCA. 

On Tuesdays and Thursdays our schedule is a little different. We have lunch at 2:00 and then we have play after we eat, After we play the bell has to ring then we have to lineup and catch the bus at 2:45. After we arrived I was with Jasmine and we were in a group. 

So first we had to put on our life jackets then we had to have our arms out and take a step and jump in the pool which was cool. After that we had to float on to our backs and form a huddle. We did this because we learned that this would keep  us warm and also make us visible to boat coming because they will know we are not a small group. 

Next we had to get back up the ladder and fall backwards 2x into the pool. After that Jasmine told us to take a dive into the pool and we had to point our arms and hug our ears tight and jump down.  We had to be careful to not hit the ground. Sadly my googles broke because the water was too strong.

                           This taught me how to float when I am stuck.

Spark Arena Trip ๐ŸšŒ๐Ÿš!!

                                   Spark Arena Trip๐ŸšŒ๐Ÿš

Hello bloggers around the world๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ‘ˆ , Today the 17 of May Waikowhai's Year 6 students went to Spark Arena. Brendan Hines is the "CEO" of Spark Arena was the one who had organised this trip for us and 2 other school, it was free!!!. There was 3 activities that we did there. There was Happy Place, Sounds Fun and Van Gogh exhibit. We went to Happy place first.

The first activity we did was Happy place it was very very fun. First thing that we did in the Happy Place was the ball pit. 4 people jumped in together and then the teachers took some pictures of us jumping in to the ball pit. I was surprised how deep it was it was like the height of my friend Daniel. The second thing that we did in the happy place was the slide. After that we took some pictures in rooms and then we got to my favourite part of the happy place. It was like a dome and there was something like a a lot of fans under the floor and then when we went in and there was confetti was flying every where.


 

The next activity that we did was Sounds fun. It was where we got to play with the launch pads. When we got to go to do the launch pad we had to look at the computer because there was a yellow line that would go past a block and when the yellow goes on the block you had to press that block. There was also trumpets that we got to play for fun. There even a electric drum that he got to have a turn on. 


The finally activity that we did before having and lunch and going back to school the Van Gogh exhibit it dark room were to shows his arts. It also had words on the walls about his life.
