Save our oceans!

Hi guys. Yesterday I went down to just before the white bridge and what I saw was devastating! Last week Oakley Creek flooded and I nearly got stuck on the other side of the bridge! When I went back down yesterday I found disgusting amounts of rubbish. There were chip packets, lolly wrappers and even polystyrene! Luckily me, my brother and my Mum picked it up. But sadly we only had three bags. We got most of it but as we were walking home we kept noticing more and more. If you guys could go down there with at least one bag it would make a real difference! Here are some pictures!

Rat we found amongst the rubbish 🤮 

Plastic bottles

All kinds of rubbish

Dinner Party

The other night I made dinner! I made Greek Pita bread, Green Curry and Apple Crumble. I got it from the garden to table site which you can go to here. I really enjoyed making dinner. Here is a picture and a link to my slides below it.

Five + a day

Kia ora! I have been learning the Te reo names for fruit. Watch my stopmotion video and you can learn too. Here is my Stopmotion.

Do you know any other fruit names in Te reo Māori?

Here is my Haiku poem to finsh off an amazing lot of work about volcanoes. 

Hope you enjoy!

Ka Tākaro ahau (I will Play)

Hi! I made another stop motion video this one is for Māori language week. It is still related to Lego though and play. Hope you enjoy. Here is the video:

Ka korero māori koe?

Kia ora e te whānau,

Yesterday I took part in the Māori Language Moment 2021. 

More than 1 million people joined in at midday yesterday to speak, sing, listen or play in Te Reo Māori. I  joined in and said our school pepeha at 12 o'clock.

The other cool things that have happened in Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori is that heaps of New Zealand bands and artists have release their songs in Te Reo. This is one of my favourites:

I also like the new song from Six60 called Pepeha. I am going to try and create and learn my own Pepeha this week.

There are lots of cool things to get involved in. #reomaori #giveitago

Hogwarts/Jurassic Park Lego

Hi! Today I made a stopmotion video using some lego me and my brother made yesterday. I also used a lego figure of Umbridge from Harry Potter. Hope you enjoy! Here is the video.

Bubbling Fudge

 Hi! Yesterday I made Russian fudge from the recipe on our blog. It was so fun and after it tasted so good! Do you like Russian fudge? Here are some pictures of me making it.

Here I am stirring it.

Here I am still stirring but it is bubbling more. You have to let it bubble for 10 - 15 minutes otherwise it will not set properly.

This is it finished!

Bye!!!😃

 

Mountain Maths

Yesterday I started my Auckland Volcano Maths. I finished it this morning. I made these mountains from Battle of the Mountains by Peter Gossage. Have you read that book? It was really fun making the mountains. And some of the maths was tricky but fun too. Hope you like it! Here are some pictures:

Lava at my house

Hi! Today I attempted to create my own lava lamp. It kind of worked but it also kind of failed. What I mean is that you have to turn it upside down and then upright again for the bubbles to rise. I learnt how to do it off my class blog. My mum and my dad both said they used to have lava lamps and they worked with a light heating the liquid to make the lava move up and down. Have you ever made a lava lamp? Here are some pictures of it.

Rangitoto blows her top... or did she?

     This is my report on an Auckland volcano. Hope you like it. Have you done one?
