CO2 Cars

On Tuesday last week Room 15 has been designing CO2 cars. First we drew it on a piece of paper and draw your own design and your name. My cars name is Demon. The colours are blue and green with a Demon logo on the side with lightning on the top and the bottom of the Demon. It looks awesome. Instead of just Room 15 racing each other we wrote a letter to Room 5 and 6 to see if they want to have a CO2 car race off and they accepted it. Room 15 has way more experience at shaping and racing the CO2 cars it will be a real challenge for those two classes.

Week 2 Reflection

WHAT: On Tuesday we did quad blogging on the Australian blog. On Wednesday we went to badminton. When we got there we did some stretches and then played a warm up game. On Thursday we went out for our Rippa sessions. When we got there we played a game of Rippa. It was awesome. It was the blue team vs the black team and the blue team won. On Friday we did our calendar art. 

SO WHAT: This week I learnt to pass the ball to the people that don't get the ball that much in Rippa rugby so they get involved and don't put there hands in there pockets. 

NOW WHAT: My goal this week is to get my work done on time and hand it in. Next week I want to play a game of tackle for free time.

Rippa Rugby

Everyday in the afternoon some of the senior classes have Rippa Sessions, we all have a day we go out. We go out on Thursday. We go out for Rippa sessions with two of the Wanganui rugby union people, there names are Jordan and Junior, Junior is from the Wanganui rugby team. We go out for 45 minutes. We do really amazing activities. One of the activities was finding space. It's where you have to find space. When they blow their whistles we stop. The person with the most space gets to choose what the want to build there. The other game was where there is an attacking and a defending team. We all got a number. I was number 8. the attacking team has the ball and the defending team has to try rip there rip off them and then we change over. I got past the defending team.

My Wordle

On Monday Mrs Larsen gave us a contract. There are a lot of activities. I did a Wordle. We had to make one suing words to explain how you would feel if you won the CO2 car race. This is mine.

My Holiday

WOW! I couldn't believe my eyes there was an amazing waterfall, it was just out of Hawkes Bay. When we first got to the waterfall it took a while for me to jump off the cliff but Tarron did it three times before me. We were about to go when I said wait, I will do it. So I got the swing and then got ready to jump. 3, 2, 1, GO! I jumped   off the cliff and when I hit the water I went into shock. When I got to the shore I was breathing so fast I couldn't stop because I worked myself up so much. 

Geometry

This week we have been learning about geometry, it's 2d shapes and 3d shapes. We have been learning about it for the last 2 days. We went onto word and did any shape picture we wanted, this is my penguin.
