Kennings poem

A terrible noise when you scratch me,

Black as night,

Back in the days,

A dust maker,

You can wipe me clean,

Writes with white,
A chalk tool,

Can you guess what this is about?

Cinquain poem

Hamster




Furry,scruffy
Running, storing, eating
Up to mischief all through the night
Mammal.

All Aboard!!!

The things we liked about our arch bridge was that it was over 70 cm tall like it said we had to in the success criteria, we also liked it because it had a ramp that let cars go up and over the arch and the trains could go under the arch.

The disadvantages about our bridge are the ramp was to weak and long and sunk in the middle but in the end we liked our design. ;)

Haiku Poem

                                                                      Leaves
  
          Leaves are golden brown,
       
       Twirling, Swirling, Falling down,

          Crunching on the ground.

A day in a wheelchair

Today was my day in a wheelchair.
Once I got off the wheelchair the sides of my thumb really hurt and it felt funny walking.
Today was really fun but I would not like to be in a wheelchair for more than 2 days!!!!

Kapa Haka 2012

The butterflies in my stomach suddenly turned into mammoth elephants as we were about to step on stage. We performed in front of about 2.5 thousand people on the 4th of September 2012.

When we got to the CBS Arena we went through the performers entrance and the girls put on their black lipstick, earring and feathers.

Next we went to our seats and watched about 5 performances.We then went to the  back stage area and the boys put on their pupus. After that we got into our lines. The nerves got bigger  and bigger as performing time got closer and closer.Then all of a sudden we were up on stage and the nerves just disappeared into nothing as we realised we couldn't see anyone.

The boys hakas were really loud and powerful and then it was the girls time to shine. We got to  the front of the stage and sang our to songs and the audience clapped along to REACH!!

I'm glad that I went and I'm looking forward to next time.

Math statistical investigation.

Our groups statistical investigation was which gender can skip the longest. The type of graph I was doing was a pictograph.
The results show that girls can skip longer in four out of six cases .

Literacy/Te Reo- Speech and Mihi.

The class said I did the following things well Eye contact, well practiced, content.

The class wished next time Consistent volume, fluency.

Next time I deliver a speech I will present without using cue cards.


Well done Breanna, I was impressed with how you included so many family names in your mihi and that you used the correct link word between them - 'raua ko'. - Miss Sweeny

Art Mardi gras masks

1. I made the following changes from the planning stage to the making stage.Different shape,different eyes, no ribbon, grey not white.
2. The hardest part of creating my mask was getting the eye holes to fit face.
3. The coulers I used represent, Black and Grey= Blend in. Purple and red=Bright. Gold and Green = stand out.
4. My mask is suitable for celebrating 30 years of cultural because it is dull then bursts of couler.

Maths competition

Today after school there was a maths meeting for the parents.

When I was there Miss Sweeny and I had a competition.

We  played 3 games.

Miss Sweeny won 1 game and I won the other 2.YAY.

Native birds artworks.

I think that what I think I did well was my feathers on the takahe.
The thing that I think I could improve next time would be making the bird a little bit thinner.

First I got a piece of paper and chose a bird to draw.
Next I got a template of a takahe and traced around it.
Then Suzy gave us a bag of crayons and told us to do our base colours.
After that Suzy said that we had to make it look like paint so we had to do texture.
Lastly we did the background.
Today we dyed our pictures in either Orange, Brown, Yellow, Green.
