Sister Aroha

 Kia Ora,

For RE our task is to do a prayer witness challenge and everyday we have a task to do. This task is about Sister Aroha who is a nun from New Zealand that works in Sri Lanka. She works at a orphanage where she takes care of kids that got left by their parents. She thinks that the kids need love and every day they have more and more love in them.

Our task was to answer the questions about her. And also had to look at the differences of Mary and Sister Aroha I think that they are very similar they are both good people.

I really enjoyed researching about sister aroha because she is such a good example of a nun.

This is my DLO

Orana Park

Kia Ora,

Yesterday Room 5 & Room 6 went to Orana Park. When we arrived both of the classes got separated. And each class got their own zoo school teacher. Room 5's one was named Sarah and room 6's one was called Bethany. We first went to the place where we will put our bags and have morning tea and lunch.

After we put our stuff away Sarah took us to the tigers Their was a really big habitat that was like a Savannah and their was two tigers which were both brothers. Then we visited the Lions and we had to see the differences of their looks and how they hunt.

I really enjoyed The Gorillas because they kept us entertained but it was really funny because they kept 
showing their butt's at us

Earthworms

Kia Ora,
 
Our main topic for this term is Biodiversity, And this time we are learning about worms and how they are good for the environment and by worms I mean Earthworms. We also did a experiment if we could find any Worms by putting water and detergent on the grass and if you wait there should be some worms that come up.

Then after the Experiment we had to research more about earthworms and why and how they are good for the environment. Me and Preston Made a Poster about Earthworms and why they are good for the environment.

I enjoyed Researching about Earthworms because I learnt a lot of things that I didn't know about them.

Friends & Foes

Kia Ora,

This term our main focus is Science and to be more specific Biodiversity.

We have been going to room 6 to learn this we have already done a couple of activities about Friends & Foes

Friends & Foes, Friends help plants to grow and turn into a fruit. But Foes are like enemies  they take all the nutrition from the plant so then it dies.

Student Summit 2021

 Kia Ora,

Today was the Student summit 2021 the whole ura manuka cluster gathered up at hornby primary. Everyone would go around different stations and learn from different station leaders. The first station was about coggle which is a thing where you can make different bubbles about information. Like if you want to plan about the WWI you can write notes for later.

Me and Mark Also Was teaching others about how to draw. It was kinda challenging teaching others because sometimes they would not understand. but then they will understand. Here are some pictures of the code that was used to draw a triangle and a square



I really enjoyed teaching others how to draw with scratch. Because after we taught how to make basic shapes they made some things of their own.

Baptism DLO

 Talofa Lava,

This term for RE Room's 5 & 6 have been learning about the holy spirit, and how the holy spirit effects the sacraments. Our task was to learn about a sacrament then make a DLO about it and answer the questions that were set. me, Ezra & MarkR. worked together and chose the sacrament Baptism to work on.

I really enjoyed making this DLO because its a change to what we normally do. I really enjoyed on working on the symbol of baptism and what it means. I didn't really like some of the questions because they were kinda difficult so we had to do some more extra research.

The holy spirit effects the sacrament of Baptism because When the person gets baptised they get cleansed from her sins, and they get welcomed to the church. This helps them to follow in Jesus's footsteps and spread the gospel of the God.

Pirate Venn Diagram

For topic our task was to learn about the different jobs on the ship, example captain,quartermaster. once we learned about the different jobs we had to make a Venn diagram on the jobs that are on the sea and the ones that are on land. on the left is land and on the right is sea, in the middle is both so the job operates in the sea and in land. If i was to choose a job it would be the captain because you cant to demand stuff and your crew relies on you to be a good captain.

Pirate Cipher Wheel

This term for topic we are learning about pirates, our first task was to learn about cipher wheels which is a thing to use to make code, we also had to learn about the ceaser code to learn how to use the cipher wheel this is what the cipher wheel looks like this

When using a cipher wheel first you need to know what you want to code, say you want to code Hello you would have to make a code, example- b4 then you would turn it and face it to b4 then from there you see where the h e l l o is so if h was number 14 you would write 14( which means h) then add 8 would be e then 14,8 then l which would be 11 then its then u would be 21 again because of the o now 
this is hello > 14,8,11,11,21 <
                                       h   e   l    l    o                
                                 And that's how to use the Cipher wheel
