Reading
I like doing reading because it is lots of learning and lots of fun. Reading can be creative sometimes. For the blues their reading is that you have to draw a bike and turn it into a animation, then write about it and thats what I'm just doing.
I am a Year 8 student at Pt England School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Room 2 and my teacher is Miss Clark.

Tornado
Tornado
There was a tornado in albeny. When I heard about it on the news it looked kind of scary because when there’s a tornado you might get caught in it and we don’t want any one caught from a tornado. So then I felt sorry for the people that are killed from a Tornado and not just them and the people that has survived and the people that has been injured but still survived. So I went in to my room and I thought what it would be like in a country that had a Tornado. I would feel absolutely scared and frightened and I would be sad if my parents had died in a Tornado. I would be crying looking at their photos, and I will remember the fun we had all together. Lucky that it didn’t happened.
Water
As I slipped into the pool I dived like a like a dolphin. As we came up from the water our eyes were stinging red. As we came up from the pool our we blinked away the burn.

Straw Bridges
Straw Bridges
Today miss King gave us the opportunity to build straw bridges. Before we could start building the straw bridges miss King had to tell us the instructions and one of them was to make sure the block could balance on your bridge and a second one was to make sure that when the block go’s on to your bridge your bridge will not fall. So then miss King finished telling room thirteen the instructions then we could go and start building our straw bridges.
The group I was in was my best bff friend witch is in my class Theas group witch is Thea, Jordenne, Lesieli , and Mary witch is me. So we got building, but before we started building our team made a plan but I don’t think our plan didn’t come out right. So at first we were going to do squares but then when Lesieli came she was doing Triangles and then Thea said we had to Triangles because Lesieli did Triangles.

Marble run
This is our Rube Goldberg Machine that we spent all day making! Here's a quick snap of what we did, stay tuned for an explanation.
MARBLE RUN
On Friday morning miss King told us to make our marble run. Before we could make it we needed to get our stuff. So when Thea and Jordenne and Sela got their stuff, we got building our our marble run.
Before we started building we made a plan and our plan turned out great. So when finished making our plan on our marble run we started building.
So we put the train track together and when we finished that we got the toilet rolls and taped it together. When we finished that we got the toilet rolls and taped it together and while I was tapping it on to the train track Thea put the tissue box under the toilet rolls so the toilet roll can kind of go down a bit. So we put up the Domino's and then we thought it was finished so we had a practice but we were not finished. So miss King came and helped us and she had to adjust our toilet rolls and our track. Then we had a practise and it was fine. So we had to try it again and miss King was taking a video of it running down and while miss King was taking a video it turned out fantastic so then we said “YAY!” we did it. We were proud of our selves and miss King was proud of us. We used technology and team work.

Straw Tower
Straw Towers
Early in the morning we had to make straw towers. First room 13 had to watch a video before making the straw towers. The video was about some children making straw towers, and the video was made in the united states. When room 13 finished watching the video miss King told us to get into a group of six. So when we finished getting into a group of six we got started. Our group witch is Sela, Jordenne, Mary witch is me, Chyna, Lesieli, Iron. The whole class only got 75 straws. So our group got to work. Lesieli done the bottom and Iron was telling us what to do and I was just sitting there. Then I was thinking should I make my own so I can help them go a little bit faster. So I done my own and then Lesieli thought my one was better and straight so did Sela. So they rather helped me instead of Jordenne so then I felt sorry for Jordenne so Lesieli helped me and Jordenne. When Jordenne was building hers, it wasn’t ballanced it was about to fall, myone wasn’t about to fall because my one was neat and tidy. BUT then we didn’t have enough time we only had one minute so we had to rush to put my one on to Jordennes and then miss King said
“okay bring your straw towers on to the blue table” so we put our straw towers on to the blue table and then we had to sit on the mat, then miss king was looking at ours and then Levis team. Then miss King chose Levis team and then levis team won and then I think we came second or Theas team.
Miss King wanted us to do straw towers because we need to learn how to work as a team.
