On the ground we found a clue and it said " Make the word Co-operation with you body " As we were finishing off the word we ran out side the dental clinic, and found a clue that told us to Create an Pyramid us your whole team.


Our Third clue lead us to the Omaru Creek and on the clue it said to "Sing your favourite song that we sing in assemble" We sang the National anthem and had to record it. Then, the next clue said that " I'm the biggest tent of them all. So we ran to the big Margue in the Margue it said to make, a cardboard Box.

Sleeping in a Tent.

Cramped and uncomfortable my teammates and I tried really hard to go to sleep. Struggling to sleep I heard the teacher’s stomping around, “ Go to Sleep “ they said. After the lights went out, I heard people crunching. “I guess it’s time to eat now” I said to my teammates.

First day of Camp.

 It was another exciting morning for me.  Do you want to know why? ......
I’m going to CAMP! Waiting patiently, I couldn’t wait to get to school. Looking around I saw a lot of people in mufti.

Did you know that our camp name is Synergy and we have the best camp teacher ever!  Miss Va’afusuaga.

First we had to go to the hall to find out who we were going to sleep with.
I’m going to sleep with Asena, Ata and Desire. Waiting anxiously I really, really wanted to know what our first activity was.

“ Yay “ I screamed “ Kayaking “ Walking down to the Pt. England Beach we saw some Year 8 students setting up our kayaks and our paddles. I was so excited.

When we were down at the beach Hannah and I went on the double kayak and had lots of fun. But it came to a point where we starting to lose control and we got scared, "What are we going to do " I said.  " I don't know " replied Hannah.

As we were close to land Hannah tipped the boat over and made both of us fall out. Working as a team Hannah and I managed to get back to shore.

Overall , I really like camp. Kayaking has been my favourite activity so far, especially bumping in to the other boats. One of my favourite things to do at night is to make silly noises and get in to trouble.  But I hope I don’t get caught because then I might have to sleep with the teachers.

Looking forward to year 5 & 6 camp!

This week on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday the year 5 and 6, are going to be enjoying being at camp. Of course we still are going to be learning, but at the same time we are going to be having fun. 

The thing that I am looking forward to do at camp, is making cookies with Mr Jarmen and Going on the Hydro Slide at the Pools, and other things too. But mostly I am looking forward to sleeping in a Tent for the second time.

                                                                  

My Done and Edited version of my Writing Sample.

“It’s a weird day today” said Dad. “Things are going missing”. “The Important things” he said. “You are right” said Jaden, “My PSP has vanished”.

Today Jaden and Justine were throwing things out, WITHOUT THEIR PARENT'S PERMISSION. They threw out things like Phones, Dad’s old Guitar, And photos of Dad and Mum in their young days.

So they all started blaming each other. Jaden and Justine were blaming Mum and Dad. And Mum and Dad were blaming Jaden and Justine. So little by little more things went missing such as Bobby John’s toys and his pram.

Then all of a sudden they had noticed that Bobby John had mysteriously disappeared! They looked everywhere but no sign of Bobby John anywhere. Do you know where he is?

After a while Jaden and Justine went looking into Bobby John’s Room, and they saw him sleeping in his bed. Then JAde and Justine thought

Side Profile.

This term the year Five's and Six's have been learning about Side Profiles. We learnt a lot about the ways it had to be drawn like, then it was time to make our move. At first we went to the ICT room and kick started the day with Drawing.

On the computer's we had to take a Picture on Photo Booth of yourself, But we had to be facing side wards, then we had to put it into our Hypo-studio Stack. We had the chance to create an Animation showing our self's walking thought Omaru Creek.

In the beginning I was a bit confused and didn't know what to do. So Mrs Telea said that the photo will be really useful, and it was. After drawing my charter I had the challenge to create a Fascinating background.

Check my blog Next Week to see how my background turned out!

Testing week!

In the past few week me and my group have been busy doing test's. I did three test's which was Reading, Writing and Math's. Before that, I was really nervous and exited at the same time. We did all our tests online on a site called E-Asttle, but sadly we had to do our writing sample on Google Doc.

Our first test was Reading, I did my reading test in the music room. As we entered the room we went straight to silent mode. Then we made a move as we were told to move to an computer. The test was great and I will be happy with my scores. But, the only thing that I didn't like about it was that we were put into the hot room.

Our writing test was up next. I did that in my class on my Netbook. The whole class had to write a narrative about things disappearing. First we had to Introduce the characters in the first Paragraphs. Then we had to talk about what the problem was in the next peace of writing. I wrote about things disappearing but on purpose.

The third and final one we did was the maths test. I did that test on one of the computers in the Music room.  I didn't really understand the math's test and I think that guest most of them. But I will still be happy with my score.

Week 5 Maths.

This week I have been learning about Equal Edition. Equal Edition is a strategy that is only used for Subtracting and Using numbers that is close to a hundred. It also means that it would not work for Pluses at all. 

All that you have to do is add to make a hundred. Once you have done that then I'm sure it would be easy to solve. And now I think that my whole group will enjoy learning this strategy.

My Teacher

Mr s is good looking he looks sporty and he is. He is tall and has the skin colour of cream and has Black hair which is curly. He has one son and he is so cute.

Mr s is Personality is making people laugh. He loves to make people laugh, sometimes when he growls somebody he makes it funny so that the person doesn't cry.

Some of Mr S is hobbies are playing sports and chilling out with his class children, sometimes we even play outside just like yesterday we played T Ball.

Mr S is the best Teacher ever, He makes us Laugh and He 
comes up with best words ever like YOU DA WOMAN, but sometimes he can be really growl y!

The thing that I like about Mr Somerville is that he let’s us do anything such as Making Movies, Chilling Out and being normal. But

Sometime before Lunch time I love to hang around with my Teacher, But since I am an Ambassador he does not allow me to do those things any more.
