Gravity…

Talofa Lava Bloggers!

Today Webber class learned about gravity. Did you know Issac Newtons was the one that discovered gravity? We watched two videos from our class site about gravity. If you would like to see my work scroll down 🙂

Gravity:

Gravity is like a power that holds you down to earth. In space there’s no gravity thats why you float. Gravity basically glues you to the earth. If you jump you will go down. If you go skydiving the power of gravity will pull you down to earth. If gravity never existed you would float. Gravity will pull everything down to earth. Gravity is what keeps you on the ground and what makes things fall. Gravity also pulls things together. If it weren’t for gravity we would be floating right now. You won’t even be able to drink water or pour it into a cup. 

Conclusion:

I learnt that if it weren’t for gravity we would be floating. I also learnt that gravity is only on earth.

Person who found out:

Gravity was discovered three hundred years ago by Issac Newton. He was sitting under an apple tree and was about to fall asleep, when suddenly an apple from above the tree fell on his head. He then discovered what gravity was and the meaning of gravity was.

Thank you so much for your time! I hope you enjoyed my work !!

The Milky Way galaxy :/ !

Hello everybody!

Yesterday Webber class learned about the Milky Way galaxy. We went on our class site, clicked on term 2, clicked week 2 and on the slide will be about the Milky Way! We also watched a video about all kinds of things in the Milky Way. Did you know the Milky way has over 2 billion stars? Once we were done finding the right page we had to choose between a slideshow, poster or a word document. I chose a poster. So when I got ready and seated I went straight onto Google Drive, clicked new, clicked more then went onto Google Drawings. I then named my poster and moved my work into the right folder by clicking on this folder symbol on the top left of your screen that has a little barrow in it. Then I started my work. I didn’t worry about the background that time so I just got started. We had to write 5 facts or more about the Milky Way, write down the questions our Teacher Mrs Patel asked us with the answer. Then we had a Q&A with Julianne Dalcanton. If you would like to see my poster scroll down.

What’s your favourite galaxy? My favourite galaxy is the Black Eye galaxy, why? have a look at my work! Hope you enjoyed my work. Thank you for your time!

Orewa Beach Trip!

Hello Everyone,

Last week Wednesday 27th of March 2024 HayPark Senior classes went on a trip to Orewa Beach. The instructors Toby and Ismara welcomed us and gave us instructions to follow as we are on the trip. It was a 45-50 minute drive to our destination and back. It was a really sunny and hot day that when I got home I hopped in the shower and when I got out I went straight to sleep. I want to thank the staff members for preparing this trip for us and a thank you to Toby and Ismara. Here is the full story about the Orewa Beach Trip! I would share my Google Doc but I will also copy and paste my work onto this blog post. Thank you for your time!

Story:

The start of the day:

On 27th of March 2024 HayPark Senior classes went to Orewa Beach for a surf trip. Our teacher Mrs Patel told us the day before our trip that we had to bring a hat, swimming togs, covered shoes, sandals, water bottle, enough lunch and a jumper or jacket. Some students from my classroom got split up, half of my class went with room 6 (Mr Albert) and the other half went with room 8 (Miss Mackenzie). When everyone was in the hall waiting for the buses, Miss Alano and Miss Campbell had a talk with all of us before leaving. The drive to our destination was about 45-50 minutes.

Middle of the day:

When we arrived we all lined up outside the bus, walked all the way to the beach that wasn’t that far. We all got seated and Ismara and Toby gave us instructions. We also got into groups of our classes. Room 6 was with Mr Morris, room 8 was with Toby and room 9 was with Mrs Patel. We played Capture The Flag, and we also got to swim after the game. Next we surfed with Toby and Ismara. The first step was to get changed in our swimsuits. We then practised on the sand with the surf boards. Then we were ready to go. I was having fun until one of my classmates hit my front tooth with the nose of their surfboard. Afterwards, I took a quick shower and got changed. My next group with my class was Mr Morris, Mr Morris let us have lunch before we were ready to go. We were meant to play games like infinity tag or octopus but we ended up going to the park. It was so fun until we had to walk back and pack up.

How to play capture the flag:

To play Capture the flag you will get put into groups. When all the preparing the game and teams are finished you’ll lay down on the floor behind the line and put your hands behind your back. When the adult says “Go” then you will get up as fast as you can and run all the way to your target, your target is a stick or anything that will be dug into the ground. The whole point of the game is to get the object thats across from where you are. My class played it on the sand and we used cut up pieces of a hose because we didn’t have flags. The rules are simple, play fair and no cheating. It depends on how many groups of teams there are. We had 5 groups and 5 sticks. We had to run across to grab the stick. It would be easy the first couple rounds until 1 stick gets removed, the whole point of removing a stick is, whoever doesn’t have a stick in their hand after running they will be eliminated from the game. At the end of the game there was only 1 hose and 2 people. The people who were racing were my friend Vienna and this boy in our class room. Vienna won by the way 🙂

End of the day:

Finally it was time to go back to school. Before we left the staff members from our school were yelling out to everyone whose clothing is whose because some students forgot their t-shirt or are wearing someone else’s along with hats, socks, jumpers and bags. When that was sorted we lined up and walked to our buses. By the time we got back to school the bell rang. I got picked up by my mum and went home 🙂

My Holiday Recount.

Hello everyone!

Last year during the holidays I went to Rotorua with my parents and brothers. I also have two other sisters but they are overseas with my Nena. Before we went on our holiday my mum took me shopping after school on Thursday. When I got home I hopped in the shower, after I tried on my new clothes and showed my mum. I packed that night because the next day we had to wake up and get on the road before the traffic started to get packed. I helped my dad put all our things in the back of our truck. My dad, Baby brother and I waited for my mum and older brother to get ready because they were taking LONG!!!! After a few minutes we were all ready to hit the road. The drive took two long hours. For the first hour my older brother was on his phone and I was playing with my baby brother. The second hour my siblings and I fell asleep and woke up to the time being only 20 more minutes before we get to our destination. The next 20 minutes we arrived, my dad and I went to the front desk to pay for the place we were staying at. My siblings and I then went to look for our room, there were two bathrooms, two rooms, a living room, a kitchen and a hot tub at the back along with our very own pool. I went to turn on the hot tub for my mum while my parents and baby brother went to go buy some food. My older brother and I swam in the pool until my parents came back. The next day we went to Skyline, Skyline is a place where there are activities you can go on and have fun. We stayed at the hotel for 3 days and went home.

That’s all and I had so much fun 🙂

For the second task we had to create two slides, the first slide had to be named “Mission two” and the second slide had to be a random picture of anything! The last activity we went on Google Drive, click new, and go on Google Drawings, next we had to insert a photo of ourselves and write our name inside a shape or not. I put mine in a shape!

Superhero SLJ Cybersmart

Talofa Lava Bloggers,

Today for Cybersmart we are doing Summer Learning Journey. First we had to fill out this form about ourselves and more that is about SLJ. Then we had to go on this app that you could find any superhero of your own choice, then we went onto google drawing and put the photo of our superhero and described what it looked like. Then we had to write a blog post. If you would like to see what superhero I picked scroll down.

The most part that I struggled with was trying to work out the app to find my superhero

The easy part was filling out the form and writing my blog post

The part I enjoyed the most was finding what superhero I was interested in

Do you have a favourite superhero?

Here is my superhero!
