handwriting

At the end of this term we did our handwriting sample. We had to use our capital and lower case letters and write a sentence about our science fair. What I liked about my handwriting was that I used my capital and lower case letters at the right time. What I could do better is make it neat and tidy.

Garden to table

In garden to table I was in the garden. For garden we did some weeding, planting passion fruit and capsicum, sweet corn, basil, carrot, pumpkin, parsley, tomato, egg plant, and thyme. After that we had a big picnic. We had fritters, kebabs and coleslaw.

Yesterday we had our school science fair. My science investigation was about if the type paper affected how far a paper plane flies.

waitangi Digital learning

On Tuesday the year 4,s went to Waitangi to do digital learning using scratch and unplugged activities. My favourite activity was scratch because I liked making stuff.

Scientific Experiment Writing

B E G I N N I N G	TITLE	Balloon Hovercraft
	QUESTION	How does a hovercraft hover?
	HYPOTHESIS	I predict that it will hover all over the table

M I D D L E	EQUIPMENT  AND MATERIALS:	Bottle top lid,CD, a balloon and hot glue gun.
	PROCEDURE:	Step 1:using a hot glue gun glue the bottle cap over the CD hole. Step 2:Blow up  a balloon. When it is fully inflated twist  the end so no air comes out.  Step 3: Stretch the balloon over  the end of the end of the bottle cap. Step 4:open up the cap and place the CD on the surface.   Step 5:untwist balloon and let go.
	OBSERVATIONS/RESULTS:	I found out that hovercraft hovered all over the table and left a track of air.

E N D

CONCLUSION:

The air from the balloon creates a cushion of moving air between the disc and the CD and reduces the friction across the surface.

speech writing

For the last two weeks we have been working on writing speeches. 
My topic was why video games are bad. 
We had to present them in front of our class. 

I think that it was very good

I believe that video games are bad for people, especially kids. Video games are games played on tv and computers such as play station 2, 3 and 4, x box and nintendo.  Video games should be banned and this is 
why.

Firstly video games are bad. Kids can get addicted. It is bad if they get addicted because they will not go to bed they will just keep playing none stop. If they do not sleep they will not be able to focus at school.


Secondly the kids might copy what they see on the game. The kids might choose to do something bad. If is not good if they do something bad because they will get used to doing it.  The parents will get upset with them and they might not trust them any more. 


Finally kids will start stealing stuff like money to play for their game. If they steal and get away with it they might keep doing it. This could get them into big trouble all for wanting to play a game.
