2020 the year that was!

 Kia Ora welcome to or back to my blog.

I cant beleive the year is almost over. 2020 has been an interesting year, And its almost over. With all the bad news about Covid 19 and other things we haven't been acknolegening all the good things that have happened, Here are 5 good things that have happened in 2020.  

1. you may of heard your grandparents talking about drive in movie theaters well they have made a comeback. With all the covid restrictions we have to social distance so that means movie theathers had to close down. Which made an opening for Drive in movie theaters. Drive in Concerts are now a thing too.

2.  Have you relised that nowdays because of Covid we can wear whatever we want outside. Sweatpants and t-shirts became exeptable and it was our reiality. So I guess we cant  just walk out in our Pjs but who knows that might be next.

3.  We relised that home schooling kinda sucks, Now we can appericate our teachers and all there hard work. Teachers don't get an amazing pay rate so maybe the next thing to happen is going to be a worldwide teacher pay rise. Its a little much but its not impossible.

So there we have the top 3 things that happend in 2020 that was actually good, If you want to find out more things here is a website: 50 good things that happened in 2020

Speaking of things that have happened in 2020, In literacy we have been thinking about 2020 and what we have been doing. surprisingly we have done a lot at marshland school. Its been a crazy year for everything. After we wrote our senteces we had to turn it into a book. Here is my story. 

2020 The year that was!

                                        What is the best thing that has happened this year for you?

Jolly Japan

Konnichiwa, welcome to or back to my blog

I hope you have had an amazing day so far. Its been an interesting term but its almost over, Which is really sad but I guess next year is going to be fun because i am going to be a year eight. I am really sad that the year is ending because I am going to be moving at the end of the year. My parents have decied that it would be best If we move back up north because my dad got a job. So I am really sad about that, I am really going to miss all my friends.

For literacy we have been learning about different countries and how to write information reports. Our task was to create a google earth tour that shows our country that we chose. We had to write a Introduction, A paragraph about the capital city and then any other information. The country I chose was Japan, it has been really fun learning about a new country. The Japanenes culture is truly interesting and fun to learn about. Japan is a beautiful country and I would love to be able to go to Japan. Here is my Google earth tour Japan

Pretty Packaging

 Hello welcome back to my blog!

I hope you have had an amazing week so far. Last week around 50 children went to zones athletics. I went there for shot put and discus. For shot put I came 4th place with 8.46 meters, And for discus I came 1st place with 22.72 meters. Since I got 1st I am going to Canterburys which is the next big compition. If you win Canterburys then that means you are the best in Canterbury. I am really nervous for it but I hope I do good.

In math we have been learning about packaging and how to correctly take measurements. on tuesday we got a mystery pack with either: Chocolate, Cookies or Peanuts. in my mystery Pack I got 4 mini Chocolate bars. Once we got our mystery pack we had to take down the measurements and choose what shape of box we want to create. 

I chose to make a square because it would fit the measurements of my mini chocolate the best. I drew it up and cut it out, then I put it together. I then thought it would look with a lid so I made a lid to go with it. Lastly I added some black ribbon around it to make it look pretty. 

Here it is, I am really happy with the outcome:

The first level was learning how to play and then playing. Once you complete a level you get a belt. it here are some pictures.

The Big Bad Wolf

 Kia Ora Bloggers

Wolves in yellowstone were such an amazing help to the environment. They even changed the course of a river.


But the wolves in france changed france in a bad way. They killed over 12,000 animals and left the farmers with not much money at all.


Overall I like wolves and think they help the world in a really positive way but unfortuneltly some wolves are like the wolves in france.

4 things Astronauts do in space

Hello, Welcome back to my blog. Its Friday and I can't wait to go home because i've had a busy day. Anyway from today every friday we have to do maths on fridays which sucks. The reason we have to do maths on fridays is because all of the school execpt the year 7&8's have 4 days that they have to do Maths but Since the year 7 and 8 have tech we have to do Maths now... ):

This Term we are focusing on space and the teachers made a sheet of activitys to do and this is the one I decided to do. We have to do 3 activitys, its kind like  Tic Tac Toe but we don't have to do it 3 in a row.
Here is a screenshot of my work:


Super Science

Magic LIghts

Kia Ora 
Welcome back to my blog.
 
For a couple of weeks we have been learning about Matariki and today we have been learning about the southern lights. The southern lights are lights that light up the sky. There are southern and northern lights, The southern lights are near the south pole and the northern lights are near the north pole. There are many myths about the mysterious lights and how they are made. The sun gets so hot that little bits of the sun brake off and come towards the earth at a fast speed because the earth is in line with the sun. The earth is protected because it has a magnetic field that surrounds the earth. So when the sun bits come towards the earth and hits the earth most of the bits are deflected but some of the bits make it through the atmosphere and makes the bright lights. The colors can be green,purple, pink and sometimes blue.

After learning about the lights we got to make some art that is based on the lights. First we had to rip a piece of paper to make a mountain range. Then we got some black paper and taped our moutain range to the black piece of paper. Then we got a paint brush and white paint and flicked the white paint onto our paper to make stars. Once we had our stars we had to wait for the paint to dry. Then we got some pastles and drew on the moutains. Then we smudged the pastles up to the top of the page to make the lights on top of the mountains.

Here it is:

My Voki On The Book Wild Boy

Kia ora bloggers,


When reading a book, have you ever been curious about something you were reading, and wanted to find out more to help you understand what you were reading better?  We have been learning about how important this is this week in Literacy.


When we read The Magic School Bus inside the human body’ I formed some advanced questions using ‘how’ and ‘why’.  I made sure they were open ended questions that would help me understand the book more.  An example of one of my questions was “Why are intestines coiled up?’ and I then researched and found out that an adults intestine is 7.5m long, so it needs to coil up so that it fits in the body.


Next we got to chose our own book to read out of our virtual library and we had to form 3 advanced questions about it.  Our create task this week was to share these in a creative way.  I chose to do it with Voki and it was about a book called Wild Boy. Here is a link: Wild Boy


                 


I really enjoyed this task as it made me realise how important it is to do this when reading to understand the text better.


Do you ever do further research when you are reading a book to deepen your understanding?

My Initials in ASCII

Kia Ora,

I've had an amazing day, how was your day? This week was a fun week but I can't wait for the weekend. I really want to go home and sleep to be honest... I had loads of fun a tech, in my tech group we are making bread and trying different colors, flavors and shapes. Its really sad that New Zealand has 3 new cases of Covid-19 but I know we will keep it under control.

After tech we were learning about ASCII, ASCII is one of the codes that revolve around Binary. Binary is what technologe uses to work. It is really confusing in the start but one you get used to it its easy to understand. To find out your name in binary you will need to do this...
Then you will need to find the letters in your name and write what number they are like this:
Then you will need to see what numbers it takes to make your number using these numbers...
64 32 16 8 4 2 1
it helps to make a table like this:
And thats how you find out what your name is in ASCII.
Instead on doing our names we had to do our initials so we did that process but instead of using our name we used our initials. We got to chose colors for the ones and the zeros and the spaces...We got to make a keychain or a braclet, And I chose to make a keychain with the colors pink,purple and blue. Here it is:




Cindy Stone book cover

Hey Readers!

How has your week been? Mines been pretty good. We've done some fun stuff this week but I'm looking forward to the weekend. I'm really upset that New Zealand has 3 new cases of Covornavirus but I know we can keep it under control and I hope we won't have to go back to level 4, it was fun but I'm enjoying school.

So, This week for literacy we've been looking at Fractured Fairy Tales... We watched a coulple videos and learnt how to fracture a story. Once we've done all the planning we are going to make our own fractured fairy tale. Yesterday we got to make our front cover for our book using book creator.

My Super Siapo

Hello, Welcome back to my blog.

I have had an amazing week. I hope you have also had a good week.What did you do this week that was fun? I am happy that New Zealand has eliminated covid-19. Jacinda Ardern has done an excellent job at keeping New Zealand safe. Every wednesday we have been learning about Samoa and the Samoan culture.

One of the oldest and most important traditions of Samoa is the Siapo or Tapa.  It is a type of cloth made from the bark of the mulberry tree.  It is very time consuming, because the bark must be harvested, stripped, separated, scraped, and beaten before it can be used.  It is then laid out in the sun to dry.
The artist uses natural dyes, created from items such as berries, bark, and nuts to make patterns on the cloth.  
There are 13 traditional patterns used on siapo that represent things common to Samoan culture such as nets, coconut leaves, shells and flowers.

My inferences about the wicked Twits

Kia Ora, welcome to or back to my blog.

I hope you have had a great time back at school.
For literacy we have been learning about making inferences. We have been reading a book called The Twits. The book is about a married couple who are really nasty and gross.

 Everyday we watch a short video and make inferences about the people. Our task was to write down our inferences on one side and on the other side we wrote the evidence from the text. To make an inference you take clues from a text or image and add them to your thoughts and prior knowledge and then you can make an inference, for example, here is an image...you can tell that the lady is angry because she is frowning and pointing


I used google drawing to create a display of my inferences

What do you think Mrs and Mr Twit are like?
Bye for now!

Measuring the Volume and capacity of Items

Hello,
Welcome back to or back to my blog. I hope you've had a good week. For maths my awesome teacher Mrs Davies gave us the task of finding iteams around our house and finding the capacity of volume. Once we had our items we had to fill a measuring jug and fill it with about 300 mls of water, Once I did that I put one of my items into the jug. When the water went up I measured how much it went up and took that away from 300 and then you will get the volume. My challenge for you is to find out how what is the volume of a apple. What was the volume of the apple?
Here is mine

My Amazing Scratch


Hi bloggers,

We are learning Samoan every Wednesday and over the last two weeks we have been learning how to count to ten.  I found this quite easy as it is very similar to counting to 10 in Maori.  Today we used Scratch to code a programme that would show people how to count to ten in Samoan.  Check it out!  Can you count to 10 in any other language?

What I think Auschwitz Concentration Camp would look like....Pixilart!

Hello fellow people the world.

For reading we are doing a novel study. The book that we are doing is The boy in the stripped pyjamas.
Personally I really like this book! Our task was to make a pixilart that showed what we the Auschwitz Concentration Camp looks like.  Here is mine               
The red rectangle at the top is a train. The white builing with the blue stripes is where they send the prisoners to get poisend. The soilders trick the prisoners by saying they are going to have a shower. The building with the black circles are where they burn the bodys. The 2 white buildings with the green are where the soilders stay,the green repesents grass. The 4 white buildings are where the prisoners stay. Bye for now!
