Practical Learning

 For Practical learning last term we did sewing. I learnt how to sew because of Miss Candish and Miss Robertson.

I chose these patterns because I didn't think anybody would use. However, I thought wrong, a lot of people used these patterns.

The part I found the trickiest was sewing because I've never done it before.

The part I enjoyed the most is when I got to use my finished headphone bag.

I am proud of my headphone bag.

WIS Visit

Last week on Wednesday we went to WIS. First we had to get into groups i'm not sure how many people we had but it was really fun. My favourite part was MUSIC.  Me and my music group did Music, Science and wood work. Here's a photo of me and my group at WIS - at music. 

Sandpit Water Cycle

For active learning we had to make sandpit water cycle. Here is mine and Kayscheen's. The water pours on the mountain, flows down the river and into the ocean.

Grow your own Rainbow!!

He Puna Kawenga did "Grow Your Own Rainbow" this is my rainbow. 

Word Art (Water)

Today we did word art around water and clouds etc. We had to figure out what water comes out of why we use it.  Here is my word art!

Water cycle

For this we experiment we had to get a plastic zip lock bag  and get a buddy and a sharpie Then you drew a water line and a sun and clouds. After that you and your buddy had to fill up the bag with some water. Then you added some dye from Miss Candish (BLUE DYE). We put it on a sunny window with some tape. At the end of the day, if we touched the condensation at the top water drop fell down. The experiment worked for us!




Evaporation means that the water goes up (as a gas)

Condensation means the gas turns back into water in the clouds

Precipitation is when is rains

Collection - the water collects in places like lakes and rivers

Hockey!

My class room 15 did hockey this term. We do it at-least every Friday to Tuesday. Yesterday on Thursday we did not do hockey because it was raining. But for hockey we have to pick buddies and my buddy was Charmony. First we got a hockey stick on how tall/short we are I use a normal one because i'm not that tall and i'm not that short. Here is a picture of us practising.
