Catapult Challenge Week 7

Whetu Catapult Challenge

The things that I used to make my catapult were: Eight sticks, five rubber bands and one spoon. In the tutorial they only used four rubber bands but we need one more to back sure it can fling things.

To make my catapult I worked with Shylah-Faye and Katelyn. I think I chose the right people because I work really well with them.

The most challenging part was tying the last rubber band on because we found it was to small then it snapped so we had try again but luckily this time worked because we stretched it first.

Our best results were 65 cm. We used Katelyn's ruler to measure by putting it down twice.

Overall I think that our catapult is a complete success and I really enjoyed working on it.

I think my catapult is a Supernova!

 

My Prediction

This term I'm reading Mr Skip and I'm really loving the book so far. Here are my predictions.

Math Challenge Week 7

This weeks math challenge was The Mystery of The Missing Story End. I really enjoyed doing this math challenge but it was a bit easy so I hope next week it's something I can challenge my self with. I worked out that the culprit was Florence.

My Emoji

My emoji is a cool dude who loves himself. 

At first my idea was a emoji with glasses and his tongue poking out, then I thought it was to basic so I decided to add some hearts. 

My favourite part of my emoji is the glasses, I think they make him look really cool.

I think my emoji is a Supernova!

Week 1 Reflection

Week 1 Reflection

What has been my highlight this week is seeing my friends and my teachers. I was really exited coming back to school to see my friends and teachers because I haven't seen them in 7 weeks.

What was I nervous about this week was coming back to school because I didn't know what to do and I was nervous I would do something wrong.

For dress up day I dressed up as a cow girl because at home we had lot's of things I could use so it seemed really easy because we don't have to go any where to buy things.

The funniest thing has has happened this week was seeing my teachers dress up crazy. I found it really entertaining.

I think the best dressed person was Scarlett because I think it's really funny when she intimidates people with her sword.

Milk Bottle Creation

The milk bottle creation I made was an elephant. I chose to do an elephant because I saw lot's of elephants on google and they looked really cool.

The hardest part was gluing on my tail and the eye's because I'm always scared I'm going to burn myself.

The easiest part was painting because I only had to use one colour.

I enjoyed painting and cutting my milk bottle because it's really relaxing.

Here is a picture of my elephant

My Book Review

During lockdown I have been working on a book review for Paper Plus.
I chose to read The Beast of Buckingham Palace by David Walliams because it was his latest book and I hadn't read it yet. I also think he's a great author.
I really enjoyed working on this task because I have never done anything like this, so it was really interesting and different to do.
There was a resource pack that we printed out, it had guide lines on how to write a good book review and other activities.
I think my review could definitely win the competition. I rate my book review a Supernova!

 

Fabulous Finish - Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing

This term we have been reading Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and I really enjoyed it. I loved hearing about all the problems Fudge causes, it made it really interesting.

My favourite character in the book was Fudge so that's why I chose do more about Fudge. 

I am interested to read other books that Fudge is in.

Here are my biscuits.

 

Chapter Challenge Week 3

This week for Chapter Challenge I researched turtles.
I loved doing this task because I learn't so much about turtles, I think turtles are so cool and interesting.
Did you know that turtles have special glands under their eyes that remove the salt from the sea water, these are called salt glands.
I think that my poster is a Supernova!
