Today in math me and my best friend Hannah have done something that we think is really cool .

My christmas

This week for literacy we have been writing about celebrations that we do at home . I wrote a story about my Christmas at home and I would like to show you it.

The way I celebrate Christmas

“Christmas” I screamed as I jumped out of my comfy bed .

First my brother and I get up at about half past five to wake our mum or dad up so we can open our spectacular presents .

Next our mum/dad get up and let us open our smallest presents usually for me it is a small teddy or something like that it’s
always so exciting.

After that we have Breakfast well when I say breakfast I mean brunch. For brunch we have amazing pancakes,  juicy bacon
and amazing scrambled eggs yum yum .

Later that day around lunch time we got to open the rest of our presents we always get one really huge one I always get really
excited about the biggest one .

At around six o’clock we had diner for dinner we had  roast chicken roast potatoes and mixed vegetables I was craving to eat it .

I think I have a very different Christmas to everyone else I hope you agree that my Christmas is very different and fun.

Robotics

Over the last ten weeks in robotics I have been learning  how to make the EV3's to move .

First I learnt how to make the robot move straight and turn .then I had to learn how to program it stop at a certain point .

next we had to make an arm to add onto the robot so it could pick up a block I found doing that really chalenging

the last task was to program the robot to go through a maze stop at a zebra crossing then pick up a piece of rubbish I didn't get that far because we dint
have enough time .

The most fun thing was watching the robots go round the maze because I was really funny

And the most challenging thing was making the robots arm

rounding and confiscating

                              Today for math me and Hannah answered a question using rounding and                                                                                          confiscating

Make their day

For the last two weeks Whakarua and Puni-o-toka have been learning about making peoples day . To show what we can do we made an action plan to show what we have been doing .

ANZAC Day for me.

For the last week my literacy group have been looking at a box that we got in the mail . Inside the box was some really old stuff from world war one . We had a look inside the box and talked about what we thought what they meant . So Connie and I made a story about what we thought and felt .

ANZAC Day for me.

I think that the story Thirteen Served Five Died was a very stern
and sad story. I can’t believe that the population in New Zealand  in 1914 was
only 1,095,994 and 194,254 went to war that's 10 % of New Zealand . I never
knew that Anzac day was so important until I read the story Thirteen Served
Five Died.

Monsters are real

This week my literacy group have been writing persuasive arguments about ether monsters are real or monsters are fake I chose real and I wrote about it .

I think that you should believe that monsters are real . Did you know that  even if you have never seen
a monster before … it's coming for you?

Monsters come into your room and drain out your energy in the middle of the night .That's why
sometimes you feel tired when you wake up .

In the deepest darkness of the night, bed bugs grow and grow until they are twice the size of you and
suck out all your blood!

They hide in the dark under your bed until the day of Halloween . Then they jump out and scare you out of your pants .

Lots of people say monsters aren't real but if you have you ever heard a weird noise it's because there's
a monster under your bed .

So as you can see monsters are real. Next time you go to bed, check underneath it.  Trust me .
