Hello Bloggers!
On the 16th of October I watched a movie called hotel for dogs. The movie is about two foster kids called Andi and Bruce and a man called Bernie is trying to help Andi and Bruce find parents. Andi and Bruce have a dog called Friday. My favourite part of the movie is when Andi and Bruce make some friends and they start the hotel for dogs. I would recommend this movie.

Hello Bloggers,
This week I was introduced to Code Avengers, Code Avengers is a cool site where you can do lots of fun activities that the teacher has set for you. When you do some of the activities you can get points. I had to do tasks about camping and the activities I did where called Computational thinking one and Computational thinking two. We have levels to get through and the characters pop up on your screen and have speech bubbles with what they are saying and it also gets read out lot to you. Then you get to do the activities, the two main characters names are Tilley and Charlie.
Bye Bloggers,
Stay safe and have a nice day!
Hello Bloggers !
My favourite piece of learning this week is my Meerkats point of view story. We had to watch a video called Catch it ( it was about meerkats). Then we had to choose what we wanted to do. We could tell the story from the meerkats point of view, create an internal monologue from the vulture or create a commentary using screencastify of the rugby scene at the end. I did a point of view story if you would like to watch the video here is the link and if you want to read my point of view story it is on the link.

My favourite piece of learning this week is Maths because in my Maths class I created a digital Tapa Cloth. We had to create our own pattern using some shapes and then we had to calculate how many sides and vertices we had for each shape we used for the digital Tapa Cloth.

On the 22nd of August me and my mum baked for the muffin bake off.
We found a recipe online and made soft sponge cupcakes. My Mum separated the egg yolk and egg white. We whisked the egg white with sugar using the electric mixer until its stiff and pale. I mixed the egg yolk, flour, butter and milk in a separate bowl until it is smooth.
The next part was quite tricky because we had to mix both batter together carefully and gently in one direction until was fluffy and smooth. After we put the batter into the baking cups in the tray and then put them into the oven to bake for 15 mins.
While the sponge cupcakes were baking we started making the cupcake decorations. We had ran out of icing sugar so with a marshmallow flower that we made for the decoration. First we cut 4 slits and spread the marshmallow to their sides and then when the cupcakes came out we put the cupcake topper on the cupcakes .
I really enjoyed making theses cupcakes,

Hello bloggers,
For my reading in lockdown I did a DLO about a Amanda Cameron ( a paralympian ).
I learnt that she does Para cycling, she is in the New Zealand Paralympic Team and they won 21 medals, nine gold, five silver and seven bronze and Amanda Cameron can't see or hear. I also learnt that the gold medal is mostly made of silver, Gymnastics is the most watched sport in the Olympics and the three Olympic values are excellence, friendship and respect.

Hello bloggers,
On 11th of June it was STEM week and we did student led toolkits. STEM means science, technology, engineering and mathematics . There where twenty four presenters for our toolkits and twelve toolkits to go to. We where able to attend three toolkits by choosing which one we did a google form and chose which one we where going to and after once we found out which one we where going to we wrote it down and we also wrote where it was so we would remember.
The first toolkit I went to was Word Art and it was in my class Waitemata you can add in words as many as you like. The presenters where Vivian and Hazel then add a font. you can choose what colour the words are which way they are what shape it is. You can also pick how much transparency you want for the picture the word are in. It is like making a card online.
The next toolkit that I went to was Music Lab. Music Lab was in Mokoroa. I enjoyed doing Music Lab because there where so many different activities that you could do in Music Lab. My favourite activity on Music Lab is Shared Piano because you can let other people join you in Shared Piano and make music together you can also use your typing keys to make the music. There are also other activities in Music Lab like, Kandinsky, Oscillators and Song maker.
The last toolkit I went to was Spheros, Spheros where in the hall. You can use your chromebook to control the Spheros. You can also change the colour of the light on top of the Sphero. There where also mazes that you could get the Spheros to go through. We could also make them go outside and go on the ramps. I also enjoyed using the joystick to move the Sphero.
My favourite toolkit was Music Lab because there are so many activities that you can do on it. I think that we should do toolkits every term and next time we do toolkits I think that I would like to be a presenter.
