They taught us a haka that they have been teaching to the kapa haka students. we had to get into  two lines and then we had to face to each other other and do the haka. we didn't have much time so we did the haka one more time and then the bell went.

Flag Football

Intoduction:WOW! On Monday the 29th of October Room 8 went

down to the hall for Kiwi sports to play a game called Flag Football.

We had to put one finger on the white line of the ball and the rest of

our fingers on the laces. When we threw the ball we had to point at

our partner in front of us. When you catch the ball you have to tuck

it under your arm and then you have to throw back and do the same

instruction.

                             Introduction

Yesterday, Room 8 got into a line and quietly walked  down to
Room 3 to do an experiment about a proof house for when an
earthquake happens.

                                     P1

Firstly, when we got to Room 3 we went inside and sat on the mat.
Then we waited quietly for Room 3 to sit on the mat with us because
they were doing reading on the tables.

                                    P2

Secondly, when they sat on the mat Miss Gormly explained the
instructions to both classes and told us what to do. Five mins later
we got up and got into a group of five then we grabbed a piece of
paper and a marker pen to draw our ideas. After we drew our ideas we
got a milk box from Miss Gormly then we drew windows and a door.
In addition when we finished we got materials for our cardboard
building.

                                     P3

Furthermore, the materials we got for our house were marbles, string,
cotton wool,paper clips and bubble rap to protect the house.

Lastly, Room 8 and Room 3 finished the final product of the
earthquake proof houses and we tested our building with the
earthquake app then we took photos and videos.

Magic snow!!

            Magic snow.

Crystal’y magic snow, on Wednesday morning Room 8 students did a science experiment about magic snow and I was very excited!

P1

Firstly, Ms Bracey explained history of the magic snow and Room 8 students were listening. One of the things Ms Bracey said was the WARNING so none of us tried eating the snow. The powdery product in the smaller package is called polymer that companies use for diapers.                   

P2

Secondly, after Ms Bracey explained we followed her instructions. The materials we got was a plastic cup that was transparent, ½  a cup of water, scissors and the magic snow.

P3                                                                        

Thirdly, we played with the magic snow just in case it was dried, next we cut the package open and grabbed the smaller package inside that had the product. We got the scissors and cut it open, after we cut it open we put the magic snow into a transparent cup. When we did that we waited for Ms Bracey to give each group ½  a cup of cold water from the tap.

P4

Finally, Ms Bracey gave the groups  ½ a cup of water and then we poured it in the snow, when we put the water inside the snow it started rising like orbeez, ( little balls from the $2.00 shop). Room 8 finished the science experiment and started to play with the final results of the magic snow, the magic snow felt like  squishy, soft, cotton candy!

Chatterbox!!

                   WALT:Use our listening skill

Introduction

I was very curious about what we were doing in the morning on
Wednesday the 5th of September.

                                        P1

Firstly, Ms Bracey tore 1 piece of paper from the magazine then
passed it around in a circle. After Ms Bracey passed the paper from
the magazine she           passed the scissors.

                                        P2

Secondly,  Ms Bracey explained to us what to do and we followed
her instructions. Furthermore we folded the paper into a large
triangle then we cut the bottom of the piece of paper then we
discarded it into the paper bin. Next we unfolded the paper then
grabbed the corners and put it to the middle, then we flipped it
around and put the corners to the middle then the chatterbox was
made.

                                    

                                         P3

Last of all, when we made it we took photos and some of us even
made tiny ones!! Room 8 finished the final results of the chatterbox
then did a recount about it and explained about how to make one.
