Decimal maths

For maths we had a decimal equation which had the a missing number we used maths pipes to work out the answer and this is what it looked liked.

Shape maths

In maths today we learnt about maths.
As you can see in the photo we made shapes out of play - do and match sticks.
We also learnt how to draw different shapes like right angled triangles and parallelograms.
We also did made origami boxes.

Stealing my heart

Everyone should bond with a horse 

NYLDNZ

National young leaders day NZ

Yesterday all the leaders form our school went down to Palmesrston North for NYDLNZ.

We went to hear from 5 inspirational speakers to make us a better leader.

They told us some very important messages like "Never give up" "Do what you love" and "All passion, No limits"

Although it was very helpful the made the whole vent very fun so no one got bored.

The only down side was we had to get up early enough to be at school by 6:20! 

It was defiantly an event all of us learnt from and will remember. 

We also got a NYLDNZ pin which represents 1. Every individual is of great worth 2. It is important to be the same inside out 3. It is important to use your ability on the behalf of others, leader ship is a privilege not a right 4. Leader ship is about serving and not being served. 

 We also took a lot of notes during the presentation so now we have the knowledge to be a great leader.

Stitched dot art

Stitched dot art!

My stitched dot art:

In room 13 we learnt how to do some stitched dot art as you can see (to the right).

First off we scratched a background and splattered neon paint on to it to give it effect.

We then traced a circle and pinned little holes to make it easier to stitch.

Lastly we stitched whatever we wanted using whatever colours we wanted to make our design unique. 

The finished products looked really cool and every design we have is different.

Foul shot

My Foul Shot

With a line of other components,

5 seconds until I start,

A class of determined people,

Noises everywhere,

Figuring out my game plan,

Wiping imaginary sweat off my hands,

Lining up my pedals,

Getting ready to start the race,

Balancing myself on top,

Pushing off and its have started,

Straightening it with my body,

Focused,

Tapping,

Leaning my weight forward,

Then I hear scraping,

My pedal against the ground,

The handles,

Slip between my fingers,

Turning,

Wobbling,

Leaning,

Slowing,

Threatening to fall,

Then when you think everything will fail,

It straightens,  

We made it ,

We made it through the cones
