Today I have made an invite for my family on fish n chip night. Fish n chip night is when parents come down to the school and watch classes perform while eating some Fish n Chips. My invite looks friendly, and says the time and date. Just so they don’t miss it. This is my invite!
Do you do fish n chip night at your school?
Yesterday near the end of the day, parents came into the school and helped kids set up for the market. I was surprised to see a lot of kids and parents setting up so fast. When me and Saffron helped my Mum set up our stall people were already looking at our desert , maybe it was because we had $1 M&M cookies, $4 lemonade scones with whip cream and berry jam. Then Saffron had dog treats, choc cake pops, claw clips, plants, and bracelets. We sold A LOT, like a very big amount of our stuff. Thank you Miss Hamilton and Summer for buying out the dog treats, hopefully your dogs liked them ! I went around a lot to different stalls, and my best buys was a christmas card and a hand made scrunchie.
Have you ever been to a school market?
On Tuesday, while people were at zones the people that stayed behind and didn’t go to zones, learnt about Christmas but in different countries. Some of us made slideshows and the others made guessing games. I learnt a lot about this topic and made a slideshow of my own.Firstly I’m going to talk about how Mexico celebrates Christmas, home of the tacos. Mexico celebrates christmas by having fun with pinatas ! Then we have the Phillipines, which surely has to be the most interesting christmas celebration ever ! The Philippines christmas Is celebrated In September all the way to january, so It’s the longest christmas celebrated in the world.

On Tuesday 14th October we had athletics day, athletics was all day so we didn’t have to do any school work for the entire day ! Lets start off with my favourite rotation.
My favourite rotation would have to be discus or shot put, because they were fun and easy to do but of course I tried my hardest on everything and same did everyone else, my second favourite had to be long jump because it was fun but challenging at the same time ! My third favourite had to be sprints because I made it into the finals but oh boy that was challenging but fun as well.
My LEAST favourite had to be 800m it wasn’t that hard but still very challenging lucky my Dad was cheering me on so I boosted to the end. Then it was high jump because I could only get over the bar ONCE which is impressive but not that good at the same time.
Have you ever qualified in athletics before?
Me and Saffron versed in a game of battle ships for maths but it wasn’t any type of battle ships you play at home its a grid battle ships! So we had to call out a grid like C4 and H6 The grid only went down to J10 and if that grid had a ship on you would say “hit”, but if you didn’t get the ship you would say “Miss” Saffron won the game so congrats to her !
Here is the grid

Today me Bella and Saffron, we made a little news report on influenza and how it has effected so many Samoans ! The ship Talune came in 1920 carrying many sick people. When Talune arrived many Samoans died almost a quarter of their population.
I found the really cool learning about influenza! Do you like new reports?
Today in room 1 we learnt about viscosity, and what it is. How we experimented this was we went into groups of 5 or 6 and got some liquids and they were, washing up liquid, golden syrup, baking oil, and water. We got a board with number 1-8 and placed the liquid on it while the board was flat, and after that we titled the board slowly upwards and saw the viscosity. The highest viscosity was the water and the lowest was golden syrup.
In term three we have learnt a lot of stuff mostly aimed at reading, we have been learning about poetry and explanations. I will go over them all in just a minute !
First of all, there are so many types of poems so here are some examples, haiku, , and free verse. These were the main poems we focused on. The haiku poem is a japanese poem and it starts off with five syllables then seven, the five again, how cool right.
Then we have free verse, free verse is just do whatever, you can rhyme you don’t have to rhyme. Its technically just freestyle just be you! Here is my poem.
Explanation writing is all about just explaining something not giving out instructions. You can pick heaps of different topics like how does popcorn pop? So use creativity and imagine what you know the most and explain it dont give instructions!

Today we went on a meeting call with some kids from Belfast School, and they showed us how to make a animation on Canva! It was so cool, their names were Poppy and Piper. Here’s what they showed us how to do !
I liked this because it was so cool because I had no idea how to do this it was a complete shock. What I liked is that you didn’t need heaps of slide to just make something move you just had to move an image !
Have you ever made a animation on canva before ?
