Word Challenge!

Yay!!! I got all the definitions correct. I'm so happy!! Mrs Nelson made us do a wonder word challenge and I got it all correct! I am so sorry if I sound like I'm bragging right now but I just feel so good because I got EVERY definition right! Like, it's that feeling that you know you've done a good job because you got everything correct. I'm just so happy! Yay for me!

Squash Recount

Today we went to the hall and played a game called Squash. We had to get a racket and a ball and do different things with them. The first thing we did was walk around while we bounced the ball on the racket. We had to stay within a square of cones while we did it though. Then we did some races, they were quite fun. The people teaching us how to play squash were Robbie and Michael. It was our last week with them sadly. Boy, I sure did have fun.

Museum Visit

A few days ago we went to the Rotorua museum kids art area. We learnt about a traditional type of maori gardening. We did activites that maori people did back then such as fertilizing soil, making holes in dirt so it would be ready, weeding, and making smoke. It was so fun.

Food For Thought

Day 1. Food Pyramid

I contributed to the discussion by raising my hand and saying LeSnak were everyday biscuits except for the cheese. I learnt something that I never knew before which was I didn't know what a vegan didn't eat and I thought vegan was for the for short of vegetarian. Now I know vegans are different from vegetarians and they don't eat things that come from animals.

Making ANZAC Biscuits

Today I made ANZAC biscuits with my friends and my class. We used Flour, Rolled Oats, Boiling Water, Golden Syrup, and some other ingredients. It was a very messy but fun activity. We even had a competition of which group made the best biscuits! Here's how me and my friends' finished ANZAC biscuits looked.
