technology work

                                 technology work 

In week 1,week 2 & week 3 of term 3, we did a technology rotation. We did all the activities in our class groups.There were 3 activities, the first one was with Mr Riceman ( my teacher ), we got a battery, a LED light, tin foil, paper clips, push pins & tapes. We had to make the light work, if we could already do that, we had to make a switch as well to turn the light on & off. The next activity was with Mr Rattenbury. We had to make a marble sit out from a table as long as possible. We were not allowed to use any support from the ground. The final activity was with Ms Sands, we made geoboards. First we measured & cut the pieces of wood by ourselves with a saw! Then we had to mark dots 2 cm from every other dots. If you did it correctly you would have 25 dots then you had to go outside & hammer nails into the dots. Then when that was done, we took it inside and we made patterns on it with rubber bands.

Worm stop motion animation

In class we  did a stop motion animation with sticks and playdough and Lego. This is an app called  stop motion animator, we used the app to create a movie. We had 40 minutes to make a stop-motion-animation. In the stop motion animator, you had to take a photo, move the object a little, take a picture move the object a little and then you keep going until you have finished your movie.I found this a bit hard because I could not mould the playdough properly, but I really enjoyed making this movie!

tiritiri matangi trip

                    tiritiri matangi trip

3 weeks ago we went on a trip called tiritiri matangi.We had to get to school at school 7:30 am!!! When we got to school, the teaches did the roll . Then we went to Auckland city by bus, cleaned our shoes and finally we got onto the ferry. Jia had some money to buy food on the ferry, and she was kind enough so she got me something too.When we got to the island we got put into groups that each had 1 guide. my guides name was Caroline. After we hiked we got to the lighthouse, ate our lunch and did a scavenger hunt .after the hunt, we went to the shores of tiritiri matangi and a fantail followed me and Jia to the beach, but when we reached the beach the fantail stood on a log for a few seconds and then flew away . Finally we reached the dock and got on the ferry. Me,Jia and Abigail went to the very top of the ferry. when I got home it was 6:00 !
here are some photos from the trip!
