Marble run(s) project

Kia Ora bloggers,

For my extra learning projects I have been making marble runs. Two years ago I made a marble run.

Here it is.

Then I made another one using;

Small boxes

Pool noodle

Stools

Chairs

Masking tape

Rock

Tray 

Balloons

blue - tac

Paper

Magazine

Tube

Ipad cushion

Funnel

Marble

The Kitchen

My dad was filming while I put the marble in. Here is the video.

AND I made another one the day after, and I used;

Pool noodle

Toilet rolls

Masking tape

Bendy Tube

Other Masking tape

Nails (hammer kind)

Shelf Stand

'POP' Dolls

Wooden rail tracks

Tube

Mr. Fussy from 'Mr. Men'

Funnel

Container

Soft toy Olaf

Marble

My Bedroom

Again, my dad filmed it. Here is the video

I had a lot of fun, but when it didn't work I got a bit frustrated.

I hope you like my marble runs.

Create a Planet writing

Kia Ora Bloggers,

Annoyingly we are still in lockdown. Somehow I kind of hope we stay like this for a little longer. I think my wish will come true, because I don't think we are going into level 2 anytime soon. Anyway, my favourite peice of work this week would probably be Monday's writing task. We had to get a piece of baking paper and fold it in half lengthways. Then we had to unfold it and on one side starting in the middle, write our first name in linked writing. After that we had to fold it in half again and trace our name on the other side. We had to colour in our name so that it looked at least a bit like an alien. When we were done with our alien we had to write a description of the planet it lived on. Here is my description.

My alien lives on planets Zorg. Planet Zorg has two sides, one that is steaming hot and another that has salt storms and snow. To get on to this planet you have to land a rover from over 1 million miles away because of the planet's gravitational force. The population here is low and there is only about 500 aliens on this planet. The aliens that live here are all the same so the only things unique about this place are the plants. There are many plants here and they are all different. Some of them even look like flip-flops. This planet is famous for its bubbly hot springs and their warm hot chocolates. If you came across this planet looking for resources, you would find a lot of mines inside the Snowy Mountains. Inside these mines there is a lot of silver and iron to collect. Zorg has their very own mining team to help you get all the silver and iron you need. Zorg population use little buggies to get around the planet easily. If you were to get to planet Zorg you would have to travel 1 light year (9.5 trillion km) away!

I hope you like my writing.

Paralympian DLOs!

Fakalofa Lahi Atu Bloggers,

This week the Teachers assigned us some work on making a DLO about a chosen Paralympian. I did my one about Jayne Craike. As soon as we had all the information we needed to make it we would put it on a new google slideshow, or a book in Book Creator. As I'm sure you will know, we are in lockdown. Again. Each individual class has their google meet to catch up everyday. On Wednesday and Friday the whole syndicate has a Google meet together. On Fridays, as usual, we give out certificates like at the assemblies back at school. My favourite tasks are the extra ones because we get to make forts with pillows and do cooking. Here is a link to my DLO.

I hope you enjoy reading my DLO and all the other blog posts I will be doing over this lockdown.

Stay safe, and Stay home!
