A piece that im proud of.

A piece that im proud of is my digital learning object its when with a partner you read a novel and reflect on it. Me and my friend Reuben Did a kahoot about the springbok tour in 1981 we did eight questions about what happend on the tour. We ended up doing it on some people and they got some of the questions right but most of them wrong. We should of let the people read the book before they do the kahoot.

Term 3 week1 blog

In the holidays we went to America and we left our house at around 4 o'clock in the afternoon to the airport. We got on the plane at 10:00 o'clock at night and it took 12 hours to get there. When we got there we settled down in our hotel. The hotel is called the Bellagio hotel in Vegas and it was so flash and there were fountains at the front of the buildings and I loved it. In Vegas we mucked around drives to the outlet stores the top of the line shoes are 50 bucks and we brought three pairs each. Then we flew to anihiem where Disneyland is and we got there. We settled at our hotel, then, the next day we went to Disneyland. And it took all day to do and I loved it. And we stayed 3 nights there. After we went Santa Monica and we went to the shore hotel. It was very modern and we stayed at the pool and went to the pier. The pier had a theme park and it was so cool and I loved America.

Term 2 review

• What was the most challenging aspect of this terms Science PBL?

It was getting my materials for my board but my hardest challenge was to make my kite for my experiment.

• What did you learn from the science PBL?

I learned to put your head down and get working because you can fall behind very quickly and that means you will have to all of your follow up that you did'int get done at home.

• What have you enjoyed about Term 2?

I enjoyed doing my digital project and science the most because it was fun to do at does keep you busy at home.

• What would you change about Term 2?

Just having misswilson here but I cant.

My blogger profile

Life Ed week 6 blog post.

This week we have been going to Life ed at school out at the basketball courts. Our instructor was Suzanne and she was talking to us about how to become a leader. She talked about when we can become a leader how to become a leader and why to become a leader. We can become a leader any time but you have to become a leader at year 7 and 8 or High School. To be a leader you have to look out for and help those in need. Stand up and lead just like on stage or sport. We talked about why to become a leader because we can just say we are onstage and we make a mistake we can learn from that then go back to that and you have another chance to do it right. If you don't become a leader you will find things hard and you will not succeed at many things.


Are you good at being a leader?

Kaikoura W1 free choice

In the first week of the holidays my Family went to Kaikoura and we had a batch over in South bay. When we got there we just mucked around got stuff ready and played on the iPad then it was bed time.
The next day me and dad went surfing and we surfed every day and it was really fun we also swam with dolphins it was really fun, I loved it I touched it twice. The skin came off and I had some dolphin skin on my finger nail. When we got back from Kaikoura We had two days at home then we went to Rotorua. We went to my Granny's house and there was a gondola right beside it so me Holly and my cousin Jake went everyday. We went on the luge and the lines were from here to Africa but we waited there was a scenic track a intermediate track and an advanced. The advanced was the best but it shuts at like after lunch and the intermediate track someone broke their leg and i don't know how that happen but we did. Then we went on the night luge and it was at night and it was really fun because it was dark And half the time you didn't know where your going.

Where did you go for the holidays?

Caritas Challenge

In term two week three we did a Caritas challenge. It's when you have 24 hours sleeping in a box to help fundraise for any country you want. Our school did a Caritas challenge for Timor-leste and first it was anti bulling week so we had a assembly week for the sweat it group [me. We had to talk about it and we watched some videos about it. There were groups based around certain things like the move it group. They setup sport and the sweat it group [us] we had to setup a second hand market. But I stayed from 9 till 3 because I had sport in the morning. After all that it was lunch time and we didn't have something to eat but it was ok because that is how the people in Timor-Leste live.

Science fair question

In week 2 we did science we had to do a hypothesis and background research about our science fair question. Mine is can you design a kite that works in low or no winds. Here is my hypothesis and background research.

Hypothesis:
I think that it will work and it will go for 30 seconds maybe more I hope that I can it can fly for a while for the audience to be amazed about my project.

Background research:

Kites are a  fun thing to use because when it's a windy day you can go to the beach and fly
it.Kites can now be used in different ways like some kites our used to lift and up all things
up. Kites our used depending on it's goal maybe the goal of some kites are   designed to
take people that our injured but a helicopter over it.

But it's annoying that if there is no wind like in most days then I have a solution for that.

What was your science fair question?

My Goals 2018

This year my goals are going to based on my learning like my first goal is gong to be about math because I am going to go to more math workshops and listen more often so I get smarter.

My second goal is about reading groups I am going quite good but I don't have enough writing on the whiteboard table. When we read one page we have to write down a set of words about what it means and I don't do much.

My third goal is about PBL because I want to get to know about the group and when we put things up on the wall I want to be the first person to or the person with the most thing up on the wall.


I have enjoyed Tech this year. I am in food. I loved it because the food was yummy and it was good to learn how to cook.


What are your goals this term and did you like tech this term? Tell me in the comments.

Week 11 Free Choice

This week I did waterpolo trials. It was at Christ College it was amazing because the school had really old buildings if I had a scholarship to Christ College I would say yes before my chances go.We had to warm up laps and we did quite a lot then we did a warm up with your legs to swim because you cant stay up on the water like normal. It took half an hour to get that done then we had to do some relays with the ball because if you want to swim with the ball you must do freestyle with the ball in the middle it was pretty hard but i got use to it

On Thursday the 12 of April we are going to play a game and trial for the A team or the B team.

Do you like water polo let me know in the comments down below

week 5 tresures

This week we have been doing treasures. There are 12 baskets and if you get one the next day you have to bring two or three things that you treasure. You have to stand up and share them with your home base. I brought in my teddy that glows. I got it when I was two i'm surprised that it actually still lights up. I also brought in lots of pictures of my cat when he is sleeping.

The Duathalon

This week there was a school Duathalon. It was my first Duathalon. It was a 2 km run then a 9 km bike then another 1 km run. I came 6th, I thought it was alright for my first Duathalon and when i finished my 9 km bike I had to do my 1 km run and it felt weird because of the constant pedaling my legs got used to it then when I got off of my bike my legs were not used to running and I hated it but is was really fun and I will do the next one.

My recount the First Rugby World Cup 1987

This Term we had to pick a event in the earlier days and i picked the First Rugby World Cup in 1987.

The First Rugby World Cup was in 1987 and Australia wanted to co-host the rugby world cup so they
rang the NZ government and wanted a world cup in NZ or Australia. The NZ government said sure and then NZ send invites to the other Country's that play rugby. They then headed on over to Australia and played the first pool there and the second pool they played one more game there then went to NZ to play pool three and four.

It was a total success after that NZ and Australia said we should have it every four years and now rugby is one of the biggest sports in the world.

Kaupeka term t1 blog

This term we have been doing a lot of stuff like science trips and more. I loved Science this term. We had chemistry with Miss Wilson and biology with Mrs Cummings and physics with Miss Hansen. You had to do 3 with each teacher. I have done 4 with Miss Wilson [oops]. My favorite one was fizzy fountain so far.I learned that when you put Mentos in it it fizzes up and if you get air in side the bottle it will explode. I would like to change that I opened the cap of the water bottle and I let air in it because it stained the concrete.

What workshops have you been to write down below.
