Tropical world 5 senses writing

Kia Ora,
This week for our writing we have been focusing on the five senses: Taste, smell, touch, hear, and sight. So in our small buddy groups we had been given a picture and we had to describe the picture using the 5 senses. Later on we had been given a choice between 5 pictures write about. This is my story. See if you can spot the 5 senses.



Soft, delicate sand brushes against my warm feet as I walk towards the glistening ocean. Cold sea water gulps into my mouth making me wince. Island trees wave and sing over the green tropical forest. Fruit and leaves alert my nose making me hungry. Big clumps of waves jumping over my soul. A rush of ocean water rustling, kicking me to the surface. The sun blinding my eyes as I rise to my feet making me blink. Quickly planting myself into the sand not making one little move.  Screenshot 2017-08-29 at 9.52.02 AM.png

Science Fair Preparation

Hello everyone,
This Term our topic is Up, Up and away and we are having a Science Fair tomorrow so our class decided to make our science fair related to Up, Up away. I am doing Elephant Toothpaste it is a really fun experiment. It is also related to Up, Up and Away because it explodes up in the air. All you need is a plastic bottle, dry yeast, hot water, teaspoon for mixing, hydrogen peroxide, and dish washing liquid. I am in a group of 5. Taylor, Hollie, Mia, Lani are in my Science Fair Group.

Science Experiments Week 2

Kia ora.
We have been doing science experiments in preparation for the science fair. Today we made a Hoop glider, it was really easy I reckon. First time we flew it, it was a BIG fail. We tried it again and it worked. Here is a video of one of our experiments.
