handwriting term 3

At the end of this term we did a handwriting sample. We had to use our capital and lower case letters and write a sentence about our school science fair. 

what I like about my handwriting is how our formed my capital and lower case letters.

what I can do better is make my letters sit on the line a little bit more.

Here is a sample of my handwriting.

Garden To Table

For garden today we started weeding and then our teacher Mrs F picked out people who were doing the right thing. We went out to our sensory garden and planted some nice flowers for our school Greats and Grands day in term 4 2019. Then we went to our school orchard to plant 4 passion fruit. 

In the kitchen they cooked quiche and fritters. They made kebabs and coleslaw. We had a picnic on our school field. It was yummy. Here is a picture of the whole class eating

Science Fair

Yesterday was the school schools Science Fair. My Science investigation was about flight and forces 

Waitangi Digital Learning

On Tuesday the 3rd of September the year 4's went to Waitangi to do some digital learning using Scratch
and some unplugged activities. My favourite activity was Scratch because I got to code my sprite to move
up, down, left and right.

Here is one photo of an unplugged activity that we did when we got there.

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
