Capture the flag

WOOOOW!!!!! I have just had the best experience EVER!!!!! Just joking  this morning room 10 went outside for a game of capture the flags but we didn’t really do anything except wait. We had to wait for our turn and we had to wait for the cones to be set up wow.

The worst part was that  I also got my feet muddy for nothing because the field was really muddy. I am usually cool with it but today I am just mad really really  mad it make me want to MMMMMMMMM…. Never mind.

Now we have to write a recount about what happened and that is even worst. Today is just not my day. I hate it when it is not my day sigh. I can’t wait till school is over.

I also feel really stink because I was only  in one of the round and heaps of people got two rounds, life is so not fair. Guess what else the game I was in was like only 1 minute life goes fast when your play a game. Probably because we had to reset the cones.

Back to the story once we got back to class there was a live stream call out I thought maybe that would get the game off my mind but it was just for the ending scene sigh sigh sigh.

And now I feel left out because heaps of people are talking to each other and I am sitting here being bored. I hated this experience sigh. I might not come school tomorrow because it was really cold outside and now my feet are freezing and I can only walk when I tip toe.

So there the worst school experience I have ever had in my whole time at school so far well I guess I haven’t spent much time at school well let’s see if tomorrow's my day.

Fitting a bike helmet

This week we tried on bike helmets and we had a bike safety lesson my bike helmet size if medium what size are you?
here are some the instructions you should do before riding

1. Check for cracks by pulling it out but not to hard
2. Put helmet on head and see if it fits  see if it fits by putting 2 finger on your forhead or you can fit more than 2 fingers on and you still  doesn’t reach  your eyebrows it is too small
3. Then you have to tip you head over and see if it falls off if it does try another one if it doesn’t good ( watch out for others)
4. Next check the straps usually is would be in a v but we don’t want a v we want a y you can adjust the straps from the buckles under your chin
5. Check once more if  the helmet doesn’t fall off  don’t forget to try multiple ones
6. Click the straps and make sure it clicks then you are ready
7. Check if you can fit 2 finger under your chin.

Earth Natural Resources

Do you ever wonder what the earth's natural resource are? Well I am about to tell you about the earth's resources,  I am also going to tell you about what make our planet habitable.

Some of the earth's natural resource might surprise you. A few of the earth's natural resources are oxygen and sun.  natural resources are important to us because if we didn’t have natural resources we wouldn’t be able to live.

The first resource I am going to discuss with you is  the sun. The sun is a natural resource it is used for multiple things like growing plants and drying clothes. The sun is a really important resources because we wouldn’t have days with out the sun. The sun is found in the middle of the solar system. DING DING mini fact the sun is at the middle of the solar system did you know that planet have Goldilocks zone and we need just the right zone.

Next I will be talking about soil. Soil, what is soil ? Well most people call soil dirt but scientist have a special scientific name for it called soil.  Soil is very important because without soil we wouldn’t have plants and without plant we wouldn’t have tree and if there was no trees we would have no fruit. Soil is found in lots of different forms sometimes sticky and squish and sometimes hard and tough but we all know that it is soil aka dirt. DING DING mini fact did you know that soil has air in it is  soil how does the soil get air in side well tiny bugs like ants and worm dig hole in the soil so that's how soil has air in it.

last but hopefully not least I come to my last resource. I am now going to discuss water. Water is a type of liquid that keeps us hydrated water can become a solid and a liquid and a gas. 71% of the earth is covered with water and 95% of the ocean is undiscovered.  DING DING mini fact earth has a lot of resources but water is the most renewable resources ever.

So  I hope you learned something. One more thing I am going to tell you these resources are dieing and there are more that are dieing out there and it is for uncountable number of reasons that those resources are dieing so in my opinion we should all pitch in to help save planet earth. What is your opinion?

Gauridians of the Galaxy Writing

It is take your kid to work day and Zaria goes to the space station with her dad because her dad is a scientist. She is really excited because she wants to be an astronaut when she grows up.

At the space station Zaria finds out that earth's resources are being destroyed Zaria was still thinking about it when Her dad disappears into a lab with the other scientists. He tells Zaria to go to the waiting room where she would meet some other kids to play with and gives her some money to buy food. Then leaves Zaria to amuse herself.

Zaria is looking for the waiting room when she finds a spaceship in one of the rooms. Curiously she goes to take a look inside the spaceship. Suddenly out of the blue the spaceship starts up and Zaria is confused about what was happening soon she is soon blasted off into outer space.

Back at the station the scientists are alarmed of what happened.  Zaria changed into a space suit and got to the driver seat. Zaria had to dodge planets and meteorites and other things like satellite transmitters.

While Zaria was there she decide to go look for another planet to support human life force. While Zaria was in out of space she saw brown lines all around the land on earth and even the cloud weren’t as white anymore wow she says in disappointment the earth is so polluted.

Zaria goes to a tones planets But none of them had the right you resources some of them didn’t have the right oxygen level, some didn’t have plants or water, some we inhabited, and some we get dead dark.

Zaria looks and looks, she looks right, she looks left and she looks up and down but nothing. Soon Zaria comes upon another planet It looks like Earth but The species of plants were different.

Zaria soon realised that the species are the same on Earth. Zaria names the planet Crownania. She Quickly started up the rocket again and flew back to Earth to tell the other everyone about the new discovery she made.

But  back at the space station the Scientist had already found out about Zaria Discovery. They got all the humans ready and their animals ready to leave Earth. Zaria arrived and got a big surprise everyone had  boarded spaceships and we're already blasting off.

Zaria found her dad and asked what was happening he said that we know what you found when you were in outer space then her told her she was grounded because she didn’t have parent supervision our permission to do that.How do you know I found a new planets it was a camera in your space so we could keep track of what was happening Oh that explains it.

After everyone had boarded a rocketship and had gone to Crownania Zaria stayed behind and looking at some of the damaged resources. If this is how humans treat this world who knows what they would do to crownaninia.

Just as Zaria was born in the spaceship she got an idea What if  I people to keep crownania clean after all I am the founder of crownania.

Zaria Went back to Crownainia and told everyone to look after this planet if you want to live on it. And from then on maybe then did the  earthlings learn there lesson.

Yr 5 and 6 Extension Seminar

Yr  5 and 6 Extention seminar

Last week on Tuesday year 5 and 6 extension had a seminar.The best thing I like about it was the lollies. I also liked that little question Really bring out what people are thinking.

What I learned

I learnt that alot of people are affected by a small problem, for example o maru creek it is so dirty now that nobody can swim in it and the fish bird and animals around there are having to leave because of the rubbish. This linked to the seminar because in this we are poluting our ennviroment and in the seminar we talked about how our natural resources are used to make new technology.

What we could do better next time

I think that next time we could get more time to prepare and they told us the topic Before the day of the seminar.

Personal Words about the seminar

At the seminar I was really nervous because We had not prepared but once we listened to a bunch of other people we  started to feel more relaxed It was just like talking in the production back in da day and it was really easy to piggy bank on other ideas because of what our amazing teachers have taught us Mrs Lagitupu and Mrs Sinclair.

My Next goal

My next step towards learning more is trying new things things I have never tried before.
