My poem: Brax

Brax is a strong teenager 

Whose eyes were as blue as a ocean

He has mint breathe with a hint of strawberry

Brax is strong but super slow 

 You will probably beat him in a race

When Brax hits you 

You will be in hospital really quickly

Brax is holding a baseball bat 

It's his favourite sport 

Brax has a voice deeper than the sea

Don't mess with Brax!

Agar Agar Plate

How i got the moulds and the bacteria colony on my agar agar plate: we swabed a surface with a cotton stick thing and the wait for a bit.

Literature Circles

We did literature circle in reading and read a book called Up Cloudy Mountain.

Under Water Life

In the depths of the sea you can see hundreds of fish, Sharks, Octopus and many more sea creatures. Brightly coloured coral surrounds a treasure chest. behind the coral and sea life, theirs a sunken ship. The ships name is "The Flying Dutch man." Its a ship that is said to be haunted! Many people say they have seen this ghost ship, there is even a camp fire story about it. The sea is quite dark the sun light brightening it up. Would you go and explore the sunken ship? 

 Maths Goals

To use appropriate units and devices to measure perimeter 

A square on the floor 

My estimate is 1m perimeter 

The Actual measurement is 2.4m 244cm around the whole square 

To use appropriate units and devices to measure area

122cm 1.22m 

61cm in length and width 

61cm x 2=122cm 

Magic Biscuits

Once there was a farm witch had two dogs Josh and Macey. One day there owner Stuart went to the mall and bought a giant pack of dog biscuits. That evening Stuart gave the dogs a bowl each. Josh ate his first followed by Macey. The next day Stuart was shocked to see his dogs were the size trees! What now Stuart wondered.

Maori colonisation Learning :)

We have been learning about how Maori were treated when NZ was first colonised.

Maori was NZ's most spoken language in the 19th century. Then the British came. At first 125,000 Maori could speak Te reo but  as more English  came to NZ the language started to die out.

Settlers bought in diseases to NZ and lots of Maori people were killed because they were not immune to these sicknesses and diseases and Maori numbers were taken down. 

As school started in new Zealand many Maori got canned and strapped for speaking Te reo in school hours and on school grounds they weren't aloud to communicate with people using Maori speech.  

Maori people (and some English) call for an amendment in 1867 there were 300 people that called for the amendment.

What i think 

I think Maori should of got treated a lot better and its sad how they got treated.
