Leaf GIF

Hi,

This week Team Moana has been working on some GIFs they have been about leaves. What I liked about this task was that we could make it our self. What I found hard was that I took a while to make what I found easy was that we could just copy and paste when making the animation. The learning behind this task was to learn how to make a GIF. Here is my GIF down below hope you like it!

 We have been learning how to use adjectives to describe a mood and atmosphere. here is a picture of our tree that my group made and the adjectives to describe the mood. Can you guess the mood and atmosphere?

Team Moana Ski Trip 2020

Last week we went on a ski trip to Mt Ruapehu we stayed at Piper's loge. Then the next day we went to Whakapapa ski field. That is where we learnt how to ski. It was really fun learning how to ski then we got free time which was even more fun.

Tectonic plates

Kia ora 

We did an experiment about tectonic plates. We made them with tomato sauce and wafers.  What I found hard was to make the tectonic plates go on top of each other.  What I found easy was to make them go beside each other.

lahar

Today we built Mt Ruapehu in the sandpit. We also made the Whangaehu River valley, the plain below the mountain and the railway bridge at Tangiwai. We wanted to learn how the lahar destroyed the bridge in 1953 causing the Tangiwai Disaster. Kora and Ariana poured lots of water into the crater we had made on top of our mountain. It whoosed down the side of the mountain and into the river valley. The bridge collapsed and bits of our train fell into the river. After that, we watched a short video about what do do if you are on Mt Ruapehu when the lahar siren sounds.  Now I know how to keep safe from a lahar if one happens when I am on a mountain.  Here is my Hazard Notice with the most important information.

Huia Research

Kia Ora

These couple of terms we have been doing a lot of research we have done some research about birds my Bird is a Huia we had groups for it I had Tanner and Zavier. The hard part was to get the information. The easy part was to right it down. I learnt that birds a a group of warm blooded animals.
