Watching the world.

The alpine swift.

The alpine swift can fly non-stop,for more then 200 days while flying from Switzerland to Africa.It can fly super fast and it can go really really high.









The horse's leg.

A horse can run 50 kilometers per hour without using a lot of energy.The power from the body makes the leg push hard off the ground and it moves forward really quick.The calve on the leg is really large,and it makes the leg bend better and increases the speed.

The horse is an animal with four legs with very large thighs and if it kicks you,you could get a problem with your body and go to hospital.If it hits you hard enough it might kill you straight away.If the knee on a horse is broken the other legs wont gallop as well as before.

At one gallop the muscle in the leg acts like an shock absorber that takes energy so it wont break.A muscle tendon provides allot of agility and power.Engineers are trying to clone the horses leg so if a horse loses his leg there will be a robotic leg to attach.

How is this possible?

Shelter In the Wild.

Today I was chosen to be a presenter for Room 7. I talked about the suitable type of shelter for surviving in the wild. The first presenter was Whitney. She was talking about where to put your tent and what it can do.Then I had my turn to talk about the little shelter my group and I made from scratch.

Next it was Robins turn to present about the type of food that you could take camping in the wild which was: Tea, Muesli bars, yogurt, chocolate and also chick peas. Lastly, Maara was giving each class maps to go and look for messages in the trees which were on the field. She and Robin helped them and then put the messages back in the tree for the next class.

This is my groups mini shelter.

Netbook Reflections

This year was an exciting year for me because I started using a chromebook as tool in the classroom. I could do my work on it and I didn't need to write it in a book but right now have to keep them in the classroom.

I was fascinated by the thought of doing so many cool things on my chromebook but it took me some time to really start using it effectively. There were so many things to learn and tried my best to learn as much as I could from my teacher, whanau and friends.The special that I learnt was maths.

I have learnt to do my 5 times tables online and how to do maths. I learnt that there are many learning sites on the internet that can help me to become more independent with my learning.

And I learnt how to be good at maths so I can move up.

I learnt how to draw at home with my mum.

My mum taught me how to read,And she taught me how to do my subtraction and addition.

I helped some kids by helping them to count forwards or backwards.

And I help them sound out the word so they can say the word properly.

I  am able to think about the topics i am going to research on and write questions, using gmail and sharing my work on the blog, read more online books, stories and articles while looking for information.

And deciding which sites are safe for me to access and use information from, sharing my learning on my blog and class blog…

Living on a shoestring By Nyree Tompkins

my story review-Giving it a shot,by David Tulloch.

This story is about a girl named Lauren thinking that her family are all winners because it sees on the shirts and it’s about her running

but she comes third place because she didn't try. But her dad thinks that she should do more sports and go to the gym more often and she would won.

This story takes place at her School, School Courts, At Her Room, and her House. The characters in this story are Mum, Dad, Lauren, Other Students, Other Racers, and Nina. I liked this story because her dad encourages his daughter to get more thin like the other girls at her school. I also liked this story because she doesn't care.
