About Term 1 !

Its finally the end of the term 1 this term was really good because I got to be friends with new people and I did most of my work . We did a lot of stuff this term but my favourite thing was probably going to brunner mine because we got to get out of the class and I really like to get out of the class room .
We were also learning different maths and it was a really good learning environment to be learning new stuff in . I really liked making Anzac biscuits yesterday it was really fun and its nice that we are sending them to people that may not be able to cook them for there self's . I had a really fun term hanging out with my friends and learning new stuff and I cant wit for next term for camp and more . 
I hope everyone had a good term 1 !

Anzac Day

Today our class and T4 made Anzac biscuits for the old people in granger house  . What we had to do first is that we had to read the instructions before we started what we needed was flower,sugar,baking soda,butter,golden syrup,oats,and coconut . We had to put the ingredients in but I cant quite remember how much to put in . We also did some Anzac art which we had to paint the background black grey and white after that we had to draw poppies and colour them red and green ! 
Here are some photos !

End of Term Reflection

Its new week 11 the end of the Term This term was really good for me because I have been in different friends groups and been learning loads of stuff . 

This term my favourite thing was probably going to brunner mine because it was really good to be getting out of the class and learning new things about New Zealand .

The most important thing I learnt was to be nice to other people and pay respect because we have been learning that around the school and also in Whanau time . 

Next Term I hope that we get to go on more trips away from the class room and I'm really looking forward to going to camp and the rest of the year .

Maths Finance

This term for weeks 9 and 10 we did a maths task to it involved money and it was almost like real life . The first thing we had to do was to fill out what we wanted to have when we are 47 or 46 ! 
It includes children pets and also cars you also have to chose what you want your pets and cars to be but you also have to chose what your kids names,Age,Gender are . 
After that you will get another peace of paper and it will say to put your tax and mortgage into the slot . You will get a card that tells you what you will get paid and how much you have to pay for your tax and mortgage. 
Every week you will get paid and you will also have to pay your tax and mortgage . After you have paid your tax and mortgage you will need to get a grocery card and add up all of your grocery's . 
Once you have added up all of your grocery's you will need to pay for them !
You will also get given a Fortune card which will either make you pay for something or give you money . 
Once you have done all of that for 3 weeks the fourth week there will be more stuff added on the you have to pay for like Sky TV, Life insurance , Your Vehicle , Phone/Internet, Electricity you will also get a card pulled out for each of there too .
After the end of the month you will have either extra money , no money , or you might be in dept . 
If you are in dept you have to take money out of your savings account everyone had two thousand dollars In there savings account . 
If you have to take money out of your savings account then you will have much less for if the end of the month . 
This is as much as we have done this term but I am looking ford to doing more next term !

Our Art !

This term we did some art and we called it avatar art because we had to copy an avatar that we tried to make look like yourself . The first thing we had to do was make our avatar on an app we found . Next we had to make squares on the avatar we made . Then we had to get a peace of paper and line it with squares then you have to draw were the avatar goes in the squares . After you have drawed your avatar you next need to paint it and you also have to find the right colour paints .Then once you have drawn and painted your avatar all you have to do is wait for it to dry and you should be done .

This week in the news !

This week there was a report that Robots are taking over the Valet Service Exupery airport in France and its kinda true !
They now have Robots That can park your car but only at Valet Service Exupery airport in France !
The robots were created by Stanley Robotics they call the robot Your Stan .
Your "Stan" slides a platform underneath your vehicle lifts it up carries it away and parks it. I think that pretty cool don't you ?
Stanley Robotics says the system can fit more cars into the same area which makes more space . 
Its much cheaper to use these robots it is $63 for a robot to move your car and keep it in the same place for a week but its more for a human to move your car surprisingly .
Here is a picture of one of the robots . 

Maths DLO

This week I did a DLO on The lowest common factor and me and two of my friends decided to do it in a slide show here it is !

Pumpkin Soup

Pumpkin Soup !
Today we are making Pumpkin soup we had to make up groups of 3 or 4 and chose a Pumpkin . After we have done that we have to get into the kitchen but we are only aloud in the kitchen group by group . The first thing we had to do while in the Kitchen is to heat the pumpkin up to make it easier to cook . After you have done that you will need to chop it in half and that might be a little hard and that's why you would need to microwave it for a little . After you have cut it in half you make a little tiny cut on the bottom of each pumpkin so it can sit properly on the table . After that you will need to take all of the seeds out because you will not need them . Once you have done that you will need to cut a onion in half and put olive oil and salt and pepper on the onion .  You will also need to cut some garlic too put in the pumpkin . After that you need to cute 30 grams of butter and then half it . Once that is done you get the pumpkin with no stead's and you put half the butter and half the garlic . Then you will need to rap in in tin foul and put it in the oven . Make sure you put the onion in tin foul too . When you put then in the oven make sure it is standing on the side you put the little cut on . You have to put the pumpkin in the oven for about two hours until it is cooked . After that you will need to cut the pumpkin and then you will need to blend it . Once you have done that you are done making your pumpkin soup !

Safety Truck

On Monday the safety truck came to our school and every class in our school went to have a visit. We went in the afternoon and we did loads of stuff.
When we went into the safely van we did some stuff just like we watched a video about what to do when a truck is near and also the blind zones of trucks when they are driving.

After that we got a book and we had to answer the missing words in the sentences. I really liked this because it taught us stuff  like the blind zones and where not to drive if you are next to a truck. it also teaches you to stay out of the blind zones. 

If this truck comes to your school make sure you listen to what they say because you might need to know what they say one day!

Key Poem !

Yesterday we had to make a poem about little objects out of the tin and one of them was a key I decided to do the key because I thought it was really cute and little. The key looked a little like this Its not the exact same but its close. 

I think my poem about a key is really cool and I think you should try one too. It was really fun to make and it was also fun to try and make into a poem . 

What you need to do to make one of these poems is to write lots of describing words and put them all together into a poem . Also I mixed up the title so its not the same word . I hope you try out this poem ! 

Our Trip To Brunner Mine!

Our Trip To Brunner Mine !

Yesterday our class went to Brunner Mine for a day trip . We went to learn about the history of Brunner Mine . We learned about the big explosion and about what the jobs were there and also what they made there. 

We had to get dressed up in olden day clothes that looked like they were worn in 1896. We also went and seen some of the things they used to work in . They were all really old but still in pretty good shape since it had been 123 years since the explosion . Did you know that there was a big underground mine explosion in the 18 hundreds? 

We also when to the old Stillwater graveyard and we got given some  questions that we had to try and find the answers too. One of the questions was too find out who was the oldest and the youngest that died in the Brunner Mine. 

My favourite thing that we did was probably just getting dressed up and taking the photos. 

I really liked this trip and I hope we will go on another one .  

Here are some photos  !

Five Things About Grey Main School !

This Week I have decided to make a blog post about The 5 things You should know for the Grey Main Visitors . This is another one of our tasks we have to do for our weekly blogging . 

1 Thing you should know is if you get in trouble use the oar the oar means O for ownership A means accountability and R is responsibility . You should always use the Oar and not bed The bed the B means Blame the E means excuses and D means Danial . So you should always chose the oar over the Bed . 

The 2 thing you should know is always respect other people and there own property . 

The 3rd thing you should know is think before you do . Think before you say something because if you don't you might do something you will get in trouble for .

4 Always make sure you are ready and have everything you need for learning . Make sure you have a pencil if you need it or a book.

5 Listen to what your teacher or any teacher around the school tells you to do or you might get a warning if you don't do it .

So i hope you learnt something about the grey main rules or something that you should do in everyday life . I think that these rules are rules everyone should follow don't you ?
