Haiku poem

 Rabbits have long ears They like to munch on carrots And they like to hop

Room 4 was creating animal poems for Agricultural and Pastoral Day

By Ngairon

Acrostic poem

 Really likes to hop

And really likes carrots

But also they are very fast

Built different to other animals

Innocent creatures

They also have long ears

Room 4 was creating animal poems for Agricultural and Pastoral Day.

From Ngairon

Haiku poem

Ngairon has 3 pets

He is also very nice

He's a role model

Ben's story part 1

Once upon a time there lived a boy named Ben and he lived in the city with his parents and this meant a lot for him since it was a crowded place and he was pretty anxious about things. Ben was homeschooled and just tried to stay away from lots of people and this gave him more time to adapt.

One morning Ben woke up to his dad calling for him” Ben could you come downstairs please, I have something to show you”. So Ben got dressed and made his way downstairs to the kitchen to find out what his dad wanted to show him.

“Ben I have some good news and some bad news, what would you like to hear first?” Ben's dad said while buttering his toast. “Uhhh bad news”. “ We will be moving out of the city since we know you're not good with big crowds and thought it would be best for you. The good news is that it's a nice place with a lake and a school with kids just like you.” Ben shook his head and made him some cereal. They were gonna go there the next day.

The next morning Ben was ready to move to the new house and said goodbye to the city while looking back through the rear windscreen.

Multiplication and division problems

WALT: Understand division strategies

For this task, I needed to complete these maths word problems by doing the equation working out and the answer. My favourite part when working out the problems was figuring them out in my head and writing down what I got and moving on to the next problem.  Maybe next time I could use a different strategy to work out the problems.

Creating my own 3D pencil holder

WALT: Create and design a 3D pencil holder

Yesterday on Wednesday I went to Kaitaia Intermediate to go to an ICT class and I had to create a 3D pencil holder on a site called Sketchup and that is also where you can make many other 3D objects that can be 3D printed. I've finished the pencil holder but I have to have some design for the 3D object and personalize it and so far I have just added my name to the pencil holder. My favourite part when creating this 3D object was watching the videos and following what to do on the app. Maybe next time I could I could research about designs I could do on the 3D object.

Zach´s hike

WALT: Write 110 words in 10 minutes

This week I had to write 110 words in 10 minutes and write about any topic and I chose a story about a boy who loved adventures. My favorite part when writing my story was using speech marks to make the character's words look better than without speech marks. Maybe next time I could write what happened to the family after their adventure in the forest

Once upon a time, there was a boy who loved to have adventures in his nearby forest and the boy's name was Zach. One day Zach had woken up to his parents saying that they were going on a hike in the forest. Zach jumped out of the bed excited and asked ¨ When are we going?¨. ¨ soon, very soon¨ Zach´s mum replied.

Zach then got prepared he had breakfast had a shower and then he was ready to go on the hike in the forest. Once they arrived at the forest they had gotten all their stuff out of the car and started to hike the forest. About 1 quarter through the hike they had stopped to have a rest. They had some food had a drink and once they had finished their rest they went back on the hike. After about 45 minutes of them hiking they had finally reached the end of their adventure through the forest. They were cheering so happy that they had finally finished the hike. After a while they sat on a log had finally ad a good rest. The end.

Ngairon´s maths word problems

 WALT: Create our own maths word problems

This week I had to create my own maths word problem. My favourite part when creating maths word problems was finding different strategies people could work out the problems. I found it challenging to put in the images for the word problem and make it easier for the viewer. Maybe next time I could use division or multiplication for the working out. 

Investigation slide

 WALT: Investigate a worldwide problem

For this task, I needed to research a worldwide problem, and I chose global warming. Then we had to break it down into what the cause of the problem is, what the size of the problem is, and describe the worldwide problem. Maybe next time I could add some more detail about describing the problem.

living things and their habitats

Walt: Write 2 to 3 things about what you learned

For this task, I needed to read an article about living things in their habitat. My favourite part when completing this article was writing down the things I learned that stood out most in the article. Maybe next time I could add one more thing that I learned in the article.

I learned that when bees fly away with pollen they carry it on their feet and wings. I also learned that flowers don't have any other way to give pollen to other flowers.

Multi choice word problems

Walt: Solve Multi choice word problems

For this task, I needed to solve maths word problems and choose which number/ decimal point answers the equation. My favourite part when solving the maths problems was using a strategy called place value partitioning. Maybe next time I could use another strategy to work out the multi-choice maths problems.

Lost and found

WALT: Practice reading using key reading strategies

For this task, I needed to read an article a day about mammals around the world called Lost and found. My favourite part was reading the article and learning lots of things from it. Maybe next time I could add another thing about the article Lost and found.

Niue language week

WALT: Undertsand Niue language week

This week we are learning about Niue language week and finding out 3 words in Niue. I like Niue language week because we learn new Niuean words and we learn about their culture. Maybe next time I could add some more Niuean words and say what they mean.

Koe Kia: Meaning goodbye

Fakalofa Atu: Meaning hello

Once upon a time, there was a boy named Ngairon and he was known for being the best biker and he rid his bike every single day even at night. One night Ngairon was out riding bikes with his friends until a bright light flew past them so they decided to go investigate.

Once they arrived at where the strange light landed the saw a weird metal box with a language written all over it which they didn't understand. They then decided to take it back to Ngairon's house. As they were carrying it they realized the box was super heavy. Once Ngairon and his friends got to his house they placed the box on the living room table and started looking around it.

They started poking the box with whatever they could find like a fork, jandal, and even their own hands but nothing had happened. when they thought was completely useless it started hovering...
