Math Tasks WK3 T1

These are my maths tasks for this week. I had to do vocab, place value, and a problem solving task called 'Losing Your Marbles,' which I enjoyed since I did it last year.

Reading Tasks WK3 T1

This is my reading for this week, we had to read a book called 'Home.' It was about people from other countries who had to move to New Zealand. We had to choose 2 people from the book (who had to move to NZ) and compared them in a venn diagram. I had some help from Samantha, check out her blog here: http://pcssamanthac.blogspot.com/

Summer Learning Journey

WK2 D2 A1 - 'Fabulous Flora'

Fabulous Flora

Flax Weaving

If I had the chance, I would try flax weaving. It doesn't look easy, but it still sounds interesting, so its worth a try. And with a bit of practice I might be able to make a few things. I think they look really cool in the end, despite how long it would take to do it. I just need to be in the right mood for doing it most of the time, but now I definitely would do it. Plus, its nice trying something that you haven't tried before, so it'd definitely be a nice challenge for me. I hope you have a great day!

WK2 D1 A3 - 'Something Smells Fishy'

Something Smells Fishy...

True Or False

Well, this took shorter than I expected.

Anyways, I had to do a True Or False activity about fish, there are 5 facts about fish, and we had to write if the facts are true or false. Enjoy, I guess.

1. The oldest known fish in the world is a 65 year old Australian Lungfish: TRUE
2. Sharks are the only fish that has eyelids: TRUE
3. Starfish are a type of fish: FALSE
4. Fish communicate with each other by making low-pitched sounds: TRUE
5. Fish usually swim in groups called classes: TRUE

Have a great day!

WK2 D1 A2 - 'The Great Taupo Cycle Challenge'

The Great Taupo Cycle Challenge

My Support Crew

If I was able to compete in The Great Taupo Cycle Challenge, the three people I would bring for my support crew would be:

1. My Mum, she would  probably record me cycling, as well as taking photos. I would be able to look back at the time I went there by going through the photos. That way I won't forget the time.
2. I would bring my friend Samantha, she would encourage me and cheer me on as I go. She would be very supportive.
3. Lastly, I would bring my sister, because I know she wouldn't want to come. She would put a bit of pressure on me, which is totally fine, and get me hyped for cycling.

WK1 D5 A3 - 'Going, going, gone...'

Going, going, gone...

NZ in 2018

It just happens to be 2019, oops, so it's the (latest) perfect time to describe NZ. Here is the description I wrote:

NZ is an interesting country. There are lovely waterfalls and mountains, along with tall trees. The NZ Native Forests look amazing, with plants like ferns. There are birds like Fantails, Pukeko, and Kiwis too. There are amazing beaches there, like Hot Water Beach. At low tide there are a few shellfish around for you to grab, unless a sign says not to. You can eat Fish & Chips, since there is usually a place to buy some nearby. Theres also a place in NZ that has the longest name in the world. I enjoy living in NZ, I would be very sad if it just so happened to sink to the bottom of the ocean in the next week.

Here is picture of one of the NZ Native forests:
