Science.

A couple of days ago we did some science. We had a lid or a container and we got some milk and filled them so they were just filled on the bottom. Then we all passed around different coloured food colouring. After that we put dishwashing liquid in it and all of the colours mixed together and separated it was cool.

This week i made a robot its got a really loud sound and flashing lights its got a switch that makes every thing goes off. Its got a car part on the jet pack it looks really cool its got legs and arms. I learned how to conect cables together and make things work. I learnt you cant connect cables when the power is on because you will get electricuted. I learnt how to make the lights working using batteries. The best part about it was decorating it with lights and the siren. It was quite cool. I enjoyed sharing it to the class and mr maindonald. By Jeffery  

CRACKING CODES

In maths we have been cracking codes. We have used our fractions strategy 'we are learning to find fractions of a set' to solve the code. For example: 4/6 of 24 

Writing

This week we have been working on our personal recount writing. We had to write about our worst injury. This is my story.

THE ADVENTURES OF MY FINGERNAIL

When I was younger me and my dad would go biking late at night.

One night we were coming up to my street when dad challenged me to a race. If I bet him he would give me $2. I really needed the money so I accepted. I peddalled as  fast as I could but dad was beating me.

As I pulled into the driveway I was going so fast I was afraid I would crash into the house so instead I swerved into the mailbox.Big mistake. The fingernail on the ring finger of my right hand hit the mailbox and snapped off!

It hurt so much! Dad took me inside and bandaged up my finger and gave me $2. Every night we took the bandage off and put a new one on.

About a month afterwards at school my bandage was loose so I pulled it off. My class screwed up their faces when they saw my deformed fingernail

The lesson I learnt from this is whenever your mum or dad challenges you to a race with a prize, if you are losing hurt yourself and get the prize anyway.

ME BEING A DOOFUS

When I was 3 years old, I had  a HORRIFIC accident!. Mum was doing something, My brothers were at School and I was in the lounge. There was a Mattress flooded with blankets and I was jumping like I was a Superhero!. Me went from Superhero to Super accident!.

Well I was 3 years old and I was doing something "Awfully silly" Mum thought. It was at my house in my home town of Sunny Palmerston North in a group of cities that were named after planets. I was jumping on a Mattress flooded with blankets until I cracked my fore head open on the TV set.

"Waah,Waah,Waah" I cried "Son, are you alright?" asked Mum but I just ignored her. Mum was NOT concentrating on anything but ME!. Mum had to get a towel to stop the blood dripping from my fore head, the towel was SO saturated!. We had a Home phone so she was just about to ring HELP!.

A stranger walked in and said "Do you want me to take you to the Hospital?" stranger says "YES" Mum replied. So me and Mum went into the Car and I was crying the WHOLE WAY!. Finally we were at the Hospital and I had to wait. Nek Minnit...... "Shhzt,Shzt" me straight into Surgery.

After I got all stitched up. And have got a Scar on my fore head thats still there since my Worst Injury!.

Class snaps! 

We have been lucky to recently have Henry and Caleb join Studio 14. Here is a photo of all of us with the backdrop for our 'pinkbattman' scene in the production. BIG thanks to Briar and Ruby for designing the backdrop and to everyone who painted it. What a team effort! 

When a tree branch snaps . . .

It is a little late in the piece, but Studio 14 is wishing Kobe a quick recovery from his 'swinging on a branch' incident. This resulted in a broken left wrist, fractured right wrist and nasty concussion, ouch!!! Get better soon Kobes! 

PRODUCTION


On Wednesday night at 7pm we did our superhero production for the parents it was great. The parents thought it was funny , because Rieleigh came on stage and it was silent until a little boy shouted out '' Its a bunny ''. Everyone in the hall started laughing. Then when Rio came on stage the same boy said '' Its a snowman ''. There was over 60 parents there. When our class did our dance the audience started to laugh again. Because of Rio his belly was a pillow so it was jumping all over the show. It was awesome.
