What are you doing out of bed?

 Hi guys, no I'm not asking you why your out of bed, the question is to do with the story I'm going to tell you, it actually happened a while ago, but anyway.

  I was walking down the corridor to brush my teeth and there was my baby sister sitting on her trike in the doorway of her room, she had this cute little smile on her face and was looking at me guiltily. "What are you doing out of bed?", I asked her. She just kept on smiling. "Go back to bed." Still smiling. So I went down the corridor and told mum. She told me to take her back to bed, so I went back down the corridor and asked my baby sister if I could take her back to bed she said no in her cute little voice. I asked her if she wanted mum to take her she nodded. So then I had to go get mum to put her to bed, and that was that.

So bye guys, hope you enjoyed the story!

Holiday reading

 Hey guys!

Welcome to term 4! I'm still in lockdown 😞, so I'll still be daily blogging. And just for your info, it's nuiean language week.

So what did you do in the holidays? I did quite a few things including taking the chance to hangout with two of my friends - Grace and Marejke - and arguing with my siblings.(surprise surprise) But what I'm going to tell about is a reading challenge that Auckland libraries set.

It was a round the world in 14 days challenge - though it wasn't really around the world - on a site called beanstack. So there were to things you could do: one log reading you've done and two do the activities and log them. 

Here is a photo of how much reading I've done.

2. Your tent/ fort should be big enough to accommodate you.

3. Take a picture of your creation along with you in it.

I just used a sheet and some giant peg things. It's made for anything really, I even wrote this blog post in it!

This isn't really related but I decided to post a fun fact on every blog post I do, here is today's one: The barbie dolls full name is:Barbara Millicent Roberts.

Well have a good day!  

Macaroons

 So this week is a challenge week, each day Mrs G posts a new challenge.

On Monday it was a blog challenge we had to do a blog post and heaps of commenting.

On Tuesday it was the egg challenge, you know the one where you have to protect an egg so that when you drop it, it won't break.

Yesterday we had to read a short graphic novel, create a monster and then create a comic about the monster. Click here to read the graphic novel and if you don't know how to access it click here.

And today we had to cook or bake something. I made coconut macaroons (not to be confused with macrons or macarons). It took me and my dad ages to decided to make these. Then we were halve way through we realised that we didn't have enough coconut so my dad added some flour instead, I was worried that it would make it strange but it was delicious. But me and my brother described it as heavenly, if you'd like to see my brothers blog here is the link. Below is the photo of my macaroons.

Also fun fact I learnt: crème brûlée means burned cream.

And no I have not forgotten day 4! 

  

Happy Jar! :-)

 I know right, what a hilarious blog title!

This is how the story goes: One of my siblings said that a huge jar of peanut butter was intimidating, my dad was like, "Would it be less intimidating if it had a smiley face?" My sibling shrugged. I'm like, "Yes, Yes!" So I go and grab the vivid and my dad says: "Use a window pen." So I put the vivid back and got a window pen, it didn't really show up so mum just told me to use the vivid. So I drew the face. Then my sibling said it was scary, in my opinion it was cute. My younger sibling was very interested.

Below is it's photo, what should we call it?  

And don't worry i haven't forgotten about day 4!

Marble Run Challenge

 For Fri-yay* this week Mrs G set us a marble run challenge. So basically we had to make a maze for a human to manoeuvre a marble around. I've inserted the slide below for you to see what I've done so far and it will update whenever I've added something. 

Maybe you could try make one yourself?   

* Friday where we do fun things if we're good.

Spring!!! And September!!!

 Well, welcome spring and September.

They've come round again.

Spring is my favourite season. Why? Because the babies are born and the flowers come out. But then again the wasps come out and I'm terrified of wasps. 

Do you know why? I was in my garden last summer and there was this hole in the ground which I didn't see and stepped on and there was a wasp nest in it. So I got stung on the shin and the ear and also got one stuck in my hair. ( My ear was like 2 centimetres thick!) 

I'm definitely looking forward to seeing all the flowers come out and when we're out of lockdown I can go to ambury farm to see the baby animals. 

Also big shout out to all the people who have to have their birthdays in lockdown including both of my best friends (Grace, and Tammy). If you'd like to read my friend Grace's blog here is the link: Grace's blog. By the way.............

........Pinch and a bunch for the first of the month!!!

Virtual Library

 Hello fans. Here I am with today's post.

So one of the things for reading that Mrs G has set us is a virtual library. A virtual library is basically it's a library online. There's lots of different books and you click on one and it's a link an then you read the book on the link. After reading that you have to do a whole bunch of questions. 

Here is the virtual library link if you'd like to check it out for yourself. 

Who likes memes?

 For writing on Friday we had to make a meme (or more the one meme), I actually did it today though.

It was really fun. In the comments tell me which you liked better. The memes are below.

Meme 1    Meme 2   Meme 3   Meme 4

I'm not sure the second meme is actually a meme.

Lockdown diary

 For New Windsor Way (which is just PB4L) Mrs Ghosh has set us a lockdown diary.

You may be thinking about a proper diary, you know where you write your thoughts and dreams and stuff. But this is more of an activity thing. It's done on the slide below. You'll be able to see my progress as I update it. If you'd like you can make a copy and do it yourself.

  

Art!

 For this lockdown my teacher has given us a photography challenge and a art challenge.

I'm happy about that because I like art and photography is pretty fun.

They are both a 30 day challenge. The art one is drawing and crafts, that kind of thing. The photograghy one is angles and just taking photos of stuff.

In the slide below I have the things I have done, you will be able to see all the new ones I put up as I add them to the slide. 

Feel free to do the challenge as well.

Modelling clay

Yesterday me and my older sister made some things out of modelling clay.

It was very hard so we had so we spend a while softening it with our hands and rolling pins.

Then we made the things, after that we put them in the oven so they'd harden.

We made quite a few things for our sylvanian families.

My sister made: a skipping rope, two rulers, a toy snake, a toy crown, some random twisty things, a fake rubber, two fake twisty rubbers, a heart, a random toy thing, two balls, a rainbow and white thing and a star on a circle.

I made: a charm for a necklace, a tiny rag doll, a stack of pancakes with sauce, a random experiment which included play dough, a bracelet, a wand, and an assortment of fruits.

We also made several marbles.   

 

The great random quiz!!!

Here is what you've all been waiting for......

THE GREAT RANDOM QUIZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I've been working on this for a long time.

I hope you like it and I hope there's no mistakes.

Please give me feedback.  

Coming Soon!!!!

 Kia ora I'm here to tell you that coming soon will be a random quiz!!!

I've been working on it for a long time so I hope my work pays off.

Keep a look out for it.

I hope you enjoy it.

My first scratch project!

 For cybersmart were learning about quality blog comments. Today I'm going to share my create of this lesson. We had the choice between word art, screencastify and scratch. I did scratch it was my first time on scratch so I was pretty nervous. I haven't finished and it would be helpful if you gave me some feedback to help me finish it.

    

Farewell Term 2

As our final post for Term 2 2021 we were told to do a reflection on our term. At the beginning of term 2 we set our goals. My first one was: I would like to get better at writing things that aren’t narratives.I think I've got better at other genres but I still much prefer narratives. This is my second goal: I would like to get faster at all my work.I have got faster but not fast enough.

Now I'm going to share 1 of the things we did this term.

Recently we had to make a rap you could make it with a buddy, I did it with my friend Grace. We had to do it about respect. 

   

For our background beat/music we used metronome and chrome music lab. If you would like to use metronome just search metronome and it should come up, as for chrome music lab here is the link:chrome music lab 

That is the end of my blog post.

I hope you have a great holiday!  

Welcome to Room 11!

 For our last cybersmart lesson we were doing the 3 Ss, sites, screenshots and screen casts. With the first two Ss(sites and screenshots) we had a bingo where we had to go on our class site  and take screenshots of the things on the bingo until we got a bingo.That was the learn section.For the create section we had to do a screencastify giving a tour of our class site, which is the video below.

And for the share section I shared it here.

Hope you enjoy it! 

Panikeke

  

On the 3rd of July we got to taste panikeke which is a Samoan pancake. But unlike any other pancake I’ve ever seen, it’s round, small and not flat. The batter on the outside smelled like fish batter but with more sugar. When I bit into it, it was sugary and crispy. The inside tasted and smelled like banana cake. I definitely recommend trying it.    

My Blog Profile

 On Monday we did cybersmart with Phil we were doing blog profiles and we had to fill in the slide bellow.

What's The Buzz?

 Today in science we were doing a project called What's The Buzz? which you may have already guessed is something to do with bees. We were all given a small container which had a bumblebee in it, don't worry it was dead. There were three different types male bumblebees, worker bumblebees and queen bumblebees. I had a queen bumblebee. We were also given magnifying glasses and tweezers but there weren't that meany tweezers so I had to use my hands. Lots of people were real disgusted about it but I was fine with it. First we examined it and while I was examining it fell onto my lap and when I picked it up I found out it was quite fluffy. Then we had to fill out a worksheet and if we finished that then we wrote down some bee facts.
