Kidneys!!!

Kia Ora!

 Last week we went to the Life Education Trust truck to learn about the body and the organs and systems inside it which keep us alive and healthy. This week we have been learning about the digestive system and we got to cut open a circulatory system (heart) or excretory system (kidney) .

We did the kidney. It was disgusting,.I wrote a poem about the kidney. I hope you enjoy it!!!😃😃

Ka Kite Ano

Writing using our five senses.

This week we have been learning how to describe places better by using our five senses. We had to write using at least 3 senses. I hope you enjoy my little story about this photo. Abandoned Hospital

The wooden door creaks open. The smell of dead bodies makes me shiver. Blood drips from the ceiling onto my head. The floor is spiky and hard beneath my bare feet. My legs trip over as I run into spider webs that get caught in my eyes. I yell, "Helpppp! " There is a dead body next to me on the floor. The door slam shut behind me ,the wind blows me back and the walls start closing in on me.

Cross Country

Kia ora

This week we had cross country. I really don't like it because I can't ran very fast. But they have cupcakes , cakes and drinks to buy and you can see your family. There were 300 people there.  When the year six kids lined up I ran with everything I had in me but I was too slow. I ran so hard my T-shirt came right off .I came last with my friends Shannon and Jack. We were sad but some cake made us happy up!  Here is a photo of me before the race. 

Science Fair

Kai Ora 

We are having a science fair. My group are doing a bottle rocket experiment.  This is where we make a rocket out of bottles and some other materials.  In my group are Rico, Luke, Te Ara Nui & me. The way the bottle rocket works is we put baking soda and vinegar inside the rocket and then it should blast off like a real rocket but smaller, a lot smaller. When we have the science fair I will let you know what happens but here is a picture of my reading group doing an experiment.

Spelling term 2 2017

Kia Ora

This week my class got a spelling test to see if we went up or down. I was frightened to see if I went up or down. My hands were shaking like wild tigers jumping around but I stayed at my level 6.7.  I was very happy and proud. Even my mum was proud of me. Some of my friends moved up. I wish I did better though.

The thing that I think I did well is getting a lot of my words right. 

The thing that I think did badly is getting 5 words wrong. Here's a link to my spelling level.
