Today for technology, we stayed at school because there is a virus, which im not going to name, in Greymouth high school. We did gardening. We took out weeds and put it in a wheelbarrow. We did that for at least 1 hour and a half. The garden was sooooo weedy, by the time we finished it looked so much better than what it did before. Have you ever done gardening at your school? That is what we did for tech at our school.

Te kinga's big day out

Yesterday our class, Te Kinga went on a big day out. Nic put us into five groups I was with Blake and Kaelyn, after that we started walking to the Velinski track with Blake and Solomon dong the traps. there were nothig in the traps sadly, but we did do some first aid training. After that walk we started to walk to the swing bridge track. On the track we came across a fairy garden, which was pretty creative. After that we went to the lake side and we split into to groups and made a hut with a tarp as a roof. We all had to fit in the hut. Alice filled up a bucket and threw it on both huts, ours got destroyed. Next we lit some fires and ate some s'mores. Finaly we than had about a thirty minute play, then it was time to go. We then packed up all our stuff and started to walk back to school.

 

Today we have been captioning our camp photos and this is one of the ones I did. Most of them are quit funny, i'm not quit sure about this one though. What do you think?

People Smart.

For topic last week my group and I did people smart. We had to do two activities. The first activity was we had to take some cups filled with water on one foot and with one hand to the tray. We lined up then we passed it to each other until they all got to the tray. When we finished that, the next activity was to find water from around the school but it couldn't be from any taps. We found a big puddle even though it was a sunny day. We had to fill a little yellow bucket and a big red bucket with water, we filled the big red bucket up to the top. Then we used a measuring cup to see how much water we had collected. That's what my group and I did for people smart.

Do you think that you could do any of these activities?

Topic

 Today when we were doing topic my group had to take a photo of water or something to do with water on the Ipads. It took us around about 10 minutes to find a picture about water. When we got a photo we edited it and then we sent it to our own chrome books so we could have it on our chrome books. When we all did that Nic sent us a doc. When we received it we put the best photo we had onto the doc and write our name under our own photo.

That is what we did for topic.

Have you taken a photo of water before?

Mount Te Kinga climb

 Last week on Thursday we climbed mount Te Kinga. When we all got to school our teacher told us all about the mountain and the safety rules as well as what were going to do there. She told us which car we were going in to get there.  After a while Zaine and me got in grandmothers car. when we got there we started to climb up the mountain. It was really muddy. It took us about fifty minutes to get to the second look out. When we got to the second look out we had a little snack. Then we headed back down. When we finally got down the mountain, we got into our togs and went into the lake and had a swim. After that Blake and I made a fire and so did other people. Then we got four marshmallows each and cooked them on the fire. Then we went back to the cars got changed and went back home.
