Speeches

Earlier in term 3 we had speeches. It was exhilarating. My topic was on Why Kids Should Get Out More. I didn't get into the semi finals or finals, but happily my best friend Nathaniel got into semi finals and finals and came 2nd place. Ethan and I were really proud of him and I bet his parents were also really proud and happy for him. Elijah came 1st and he is representing the school for Eden/Albert sometime this month (September).

Mini BB fair

On Thursday the 30th of August was the MINI BB FAIR. The meaning of BB is books and baking. Basically the good baking only cost 50 cents or 2$. I got so much baking I felt like I had to throw up and Ethan looked like he was having a sugar rush. I enjoyed the fair because they had so much baking's and books. The baking was like I was in heaven and I know it would be worth it to die for. The chairperson and the Secretary and the PTA helpers were giving out the books and baking. There was one lovely lady who gave me a extra cookie for free and I really appreciated what she did. 

Animal Classification

Animal Classification 

Today we learned about how animals are classified into groups. Animals are either vertebrates (which means they have a spine) 
or invertebrates (which don't have have a spine). 


invertebrates are animals like jellyfish, crabs, insects and octopus. 


Vertebrates are put into five groups. They are mammals birds reptiles, fish and amphibians. mammals have fur or hair and give birth to live young. Birds have feathers and lay hard eggs. Reptiles are cold - blooded and lay soft eggs. Amphibians breathe through their skin and need to keep their skin moist. Fish breathe through gills and fins.  

5 examples of each type:  

Mammals: 

Birds: 

Reptiles: 

Fish: 

Amphibians: newt, frog, toad, salamander, caecillian 

Ina And The Shark

 This is my slide about Ina And The Shark. It is a Cook Island myth. We studied it because we are learning more about Pacific Island cultures, languages and myths. 
To learn more about this myth, watch the slide and enjoy.

The Sacraments

This is my R.E tittle page for Sacrament.There are 7 Sacraments in the church: They are Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Penance, Anointing the sick, Holy orders and Marriage. 

Drama

This is a video of our drama lesson. It was about Hansel and the Witch. Ben was Hansel and I was the Witch. But very very funny. Each group could change bits of the story.

 

Science Road Show

On Wednesday was the science road show at Edendale School it was epic. It was about ice and fire and temperature. There were a lot of other schools that came. There were heaps of gadgets ,they were very cool and impressive. I hope we can go again to the Science Road Show this year but on a different topic.
