Top marks

"Top marks", is a math website that I go on to learn maths. Sometimes my teacher puts up a top marks game for us to play. I like playing top marks because it really helps me with my math and I learn new things.

Homework

This week for homework we had to use the countdown mailer and pretend we have $40.00 so we can serve a Entree, Main and Dessert.

Fact Families

For homework this week we had to play a game called Fact Families. When I started playing I thought that it was kind of hard but then I played it for a bit longer and I got the hand of it.

Natural Disasters

For the past ten years there has been earthquakes, fires, floods, cyclones, tornado's, tsunami and drought. All of these natural disasters are very dangerous so if you know that one is happening then make sure you call 111.

Natural Disasters can happen anywhere but we are talking about Auckland so around Auckland, we don't normally have earthquakes or floods but we do have fires pretty often. So in the past ten years all of these natural disasters has happened in Auckland.

Kids Can Crazy Day

Today in the last block we started making crazy cones for tomorrow. Tomorrow is mufti and the theme is Get Crazy With Kids Can. For our cones we used paint, cardboard and paper. I made a white cardboard cone with some light pink, blue, purple and green paint.

We also helped Danielle and Anaysha. We all had fun but it was also kind of hard. Now every month we will be measuring ourselves.

$Money, Money and Money$

Today for math Miss Ly put us in groups of three and 1 was for a runner another one was for the writer and the last one was for the giver. It was hard and easy but mainly fun. We had to count all the money and add up the total.

Volleyball

From the start of term two we started doing volleyball lessons. Our coach for volleyball was Toni. She is a pro at volley and she is no longer going to teach us more skills. At volleyball we learnt passing, spiking and serving. I just want to say"Thank-you Toni for teaching us and we hope you have a safe flight to america!"

Once A Samoan Always A Samoan

The most special thing to my family about our culture is the country. It is the country because the sunset at night is beautiful and the beaches are amazing. In Samoa there are 2 big islands. Upolu and Savaii. Savaii has only one big road that goes all around the island and Upolu has loads of roads.

In Samoa there is a lot of markets and banks. In the market there is some food, huge bananas, clothes, fans and necklaces. I have been to Samoa twice. Once when I was 3 and early this year I went. My Dad's family lives in Samoa and my Nana's family lives in Samoa and my Papa's family lives in Samoa. 

~Book Day Costumes~

Today we designed our Book Day costumes. Some of us used paint and others used other stuff. We had a lot of fun but it was so hard to do. I am going to feel like myself tomorrow because I always feel like myself. Tomorrow I am going to be Chloe Garcia from The Dork Diaries.

The Most Fascinating Thing About My Parents Careers.

The most fascinating thing about my parents careers is......

What is fascinating about my dads job is that he gets to drive around Auckland and see new things in Auckland. What is fascinating about my mums job is that she is a supermarket worker which means she works with lots of YUMMY food.

My parents are hard working people. A lot of people in my class know my Mum but only one person in my class knows my Dad. At my parents work there are a lot of nice people and generous people there.
