Fiao'o Fa'masili was the captain of the Auckland/New Zealand Black Ferns, well I think that the Black Ferns should get the same amount as the men athletes because I think that the Black Ferns have been working hard to get the same amount of money, they didn't work hard to get quarter of the money that the men get .... I just think that's not FAIR !

There was a mum who a daughter and Marry was her namo. M-a-r-r-y M-a-r-r-y  M-a-r-r-y and Marry was her namo … but when it got a little bit dark, Marry tried to sing, but… her voice was squeaky!

Marry never wanted to sing again… but then she realised that she can’t give up! She turned around and realised that she’s not alone… There was a frog! She noticed that the frog was from the Princess and the frog.

The frog tried to burp but it sounded just like Marry’s voice. Marry noticed that her and the frog swapped voices somehow!

Marry knew who to go to… Marry went to her granny’s old friend, Mrs Claus. Mrs Claus had powers to change people’s voices back to normal! So then Marry had to do some things for Mrs Claus, to get her voice back.

A few hours later, Mrs Claus shrilled “Marry my darling!” Marry’s response was “Yes Mrs Claus?”. “Marry my darling, it’s time to change your voice,” said Mrs Claus. “Yas!” ,shouted Marry. Marry got her voice back but instead of the frog getting his voice back, he got someone else’s voice and someone got his voice. “Opps” said Mrs Claus and they all started to laugh

My Crazy Pet

My pet is brown, has smelly fur but is kinda hairless, he acts like a human being. My pet was hungry so he looked out the window and there was a man holding a banana… my pet probably thought to himself… Should I eat him and the banana ?

I rubbed my eyes to see clearly but I woke up instead. You would not believe what I saw … my pet had blood on his mouth and banana peels

 on the ground, I looked down and there was the man with blood !!

Puberty Writing

Puberty Writing

What are some changes that happen during puberty? Today I’ll be talking about changes during puberty and what puberty is.  In my writing I’ll be using key words such as brain stem,puberty and pituitary gland.

Some changes a female will have are… hair starts to grow in their private parts. You can only start going through puberty at the age of 8-16. You will start to have your period and you will start using pads, Tampa ons and reusable underwear and pads. When you finish your period it’ll be 28 more days for your next period.

Changes that will happen in a males body are… they’re voice box grows and their voice gets deeper. The grow hair in their private parts and you body grows and changes.

changes a female and a male have in common … they both grow hair in their private part. They both have a brain stem at the back of their brain and connects with the spine and the pituitary gland sits on the brain stem and controls your puberty.

Something you need to do while going through puberty: 

You can eat healthily . You have to have at least 8-10 hours of sleep.

You can help yourself by not eating junk food like Mcdonalds, take away and chocolate.

Well that’s all I got to write I hope you have learnt a lot from my writing today.

Rube Goldberg Machine

Rube Goldberg Machine

The purpose of making a Rube Goldberg machine is to complete a simple task in a long,
complicated, roundabout way.

2 facts about Rube Goldberg : He likes/loves to make crazy, simple , long machines to do a simple task .
He was born in san francisco in america.

My group members are: Faiana, Aaliyah, Sheila and Helena.

Our machine was about flipping a dice up in the air.

It turned out very good and it worked on the first try. Our materials were Toi Toi books, ruler, two cubes
and a dice.

Almost everything worked and was planned together.

What really didn’t work was the basketball.

I think what my team can do better is to give ideas for what they think our machine can be about.

My Two Weeks Of Holiday

Student Led Conference Term 3 & Science Fair

Yesterday the 25th of July, we had student led conference but I did not come because my parents had course, but what I did for science fair was... how we taste art made by My self,Makisha and Wint I think me,Makisha and Wint put alot of effort into our art. What I want to improve for the rest of the year/term is to try not to get distracted and not to distract others when we get sent a easy task or when we have to work quietly .

Smart Relationships

This morning Mrs Collins came in to room 10 for cyber smart, we were talking about what a Smart Relationship is . 
What I think  Smart Relationship  means to me and other's :
Being confident around other's and your self, Respecting people that are around you but mostly respect your self, Leaving positive comments on other's Blogs, Being your self and not trying to be someone you are not and being loyal.

From the video I learnt that you have to think before you make the wrong decision , feel what is right for you and doing the right thing, balance your technology ,listen to other's and what they got to say and stand up for yourself.

This morning I completed the survey with Mrs Collins we have been answering question for all My learning for this year on my Chromebook. Some of the question were hard because i did not know what to pick but I was honest when I had to pick a answer . I think we should be awarded with ice-blocks because we have all completed the survey for our learning on our Chromebooks.

Water Cycle

Water Cycle

Introduction- what is a water cycle? A water cycle is something that repeats itself. I will be talking about water,sun,cloud,thunder and lightning and the sea

Sun: when the water is liquid the sun is over it and the liquid turns into gas and rises up into the sky and turns into a big or small cloud . Evaporation- is when the liquid turns into gas and steam rises up into the sky.

Cloud: when you probably cook noodles it boils and the water turns in to steam and the steam goes up and the gas or steam get collected and turns into a big cloud. When it gets cold it turns in to water again and goes into the water or sea. Condensation - is when gas gets collected as an big cloud and turns into rain when its cold.

Thunder/Lightning: when the cloud gets cold the water can fall as rain,hail or snow.

Precipitation- is water that falls as rain,snow and hail.

Sea: the water rains and goes into the sea. But if it snows the snows end up anywhere. So the sun has to melt the snow then the melted snow goes into the sea. The sun goes over the sea and the steam goes up into the sky and repeats itself. Collection is when water collects into the ocean and the snow and hail melts.

Conclusion: I have learnt a lot of things about a water cycle. I loved writing about a water cycle.

Hello (again) Mia

Hello again Mia.

Last week we sent letters to our principal to see if we could be allowed to video call you guys using google hangouts. Four people sent a letter to our principal to ask if he could let us use google hangouts so we could use google hangouts to video call. Our deputy principal Mrs Wrack came into our class and gave us a reply and she said YES!!. Our class were so happy that we could use google hangouts to video call you guys. We have made some consequences if we get silly using google hangouts. If we be silly well we are using google hangouts we will have our devices taken of us.
we have made some rules for when we use google hangouts. Some of our rules are we will only be using google hangouts for 1 hour or less,use our school values. From Felicia.
