Koru Art

For two weeks we have been doing art with Whaea Rose about koru, bird and clouds with ink.

We made our koru art using foam, cardboard and paper and a pen.

My koru represents my ancestors. 

I really like that I have a bird and people in my art that make it look real.

Here is my Art.

hover craft

Balloon Hovercraft How does a hovercraft hover? I predict that it would work Cd water bottle cap hot glue balloon Step 1:using  the hot glue gun glue the bottle cap to the CD hole.

Step 2: blow up the balloon when it is fully inflated. 

Step 3: twisted the balloon bottom so no air can come out stretch the balloon bottom over the bottle lid 

Step 4: open the bottle lid and place the CD on a table.

Step 5: untwist the balloon and let go

When I saw  It It worked!! The air from the balloon creates a cushion of moving air between the disc and the CD and reduces friction across the surface

Volume and Capacity

This week we used popcorn to learn about volume and capacity.

Speeches

For the last two weeks we have been working on writing speeches. 

My topic was why fortnite should be banned

We had to present them in front of our class. 

I think that it was awesome!

Here is my speech.

I believe that fortnite should be banned. Fortnite is a video game that has inappropriate stuff like guns, grenades, shooting and bullying. It is a game played online by people of all ages. I think it’s a horrible game and should be banned. Here are my reasons why.

Firstly, kids ask parents for money so they can buy V-Bux. V-bux is the money in the game, which gamers want so that they can purchase things in the game. It is upsetting for parents when their kids ask for money because they often do not have extra money to spend on the v bux. 

Secondly, Fortnite can make people get highly emotional.  Sometimes, people get angry and start to rage. Rage is when another gamer sneaks up on another player and eliminates them.  When they get eliminated, the player can jump out of their seats and say bad words. They could even break stuff that is important.  Now that is never ok!

Finally, some children get so addicted to the game that they hide in places and don’t go to school. A lot of people hide in different places in their house to play Fortnite and do not go to school to learn.  Come on people get out of your room and learn! 

Conclusion

Fortnite can cause players to get angry, miss school and bug their parents for money. Come on people you need to get your lazy butt out of that room and learn. That is why I think fortnite should be banned. By me. :3
