Making Vanilla ice cream.


This term / This week we made home made vanilla ice cream using a video the teachers gave us and the cool thing is we only needed 3 things, you will find out what they are when you read the slide.
Today I was learning how to make Vanilla ice cream using 3 ingredients and an electric mixer.
I enjoyed having fun and making it with my little sister Paige because it's an no device activity.
I found it challenging to find the ingredients because people are going crazy over them in the shops.
My digital learning object shows how to make Vanilla ice cream and what to use to make an delicious and yummy ice cream made at home.
Next time I would change the amount of condensed milk I put in and use a measuring cup.

River's Poppies.


This week during quarantine we had an Anzac contract with all this kind of work to do and I had to post on my blog and so I drew Poppies using a video of Art Hub for kids and it was really fun to do and it helps you practice with drawing if you are not that good at it.
The thing I liked about it was that it was fun and it was really cool to see at the end what it looked like.
The most interesting part was how poppies can be drawn in different ways and different styles.
The easy part was coloring because it's easy and fun at the same time.
The hard part was forming the petals because of how petals are different in their own way so I had to make them unique.

The School Triathlon.


This Term was full of Sports and fun but the one that was a challenge for me was the School Triathlon.
The School Triathlon was a bit hard but I tried, because this is my last year and I didn't want it to be like I didn't try at all.
The part I liked was the swimming because it was the less hardest and it was more fun then then the rest even though it was freezing cold, and it felt like I grew up in an iceberg.
The part that was hardest was the running because I started getting tired and exhausted after the third lap.
The part that was easiest was the swimming because I got a break from the running and biking and it also cooled me off because I was really hot.

Titanic.

 This Term, We were reading about the Titanic and it has one of the most interesting things like having a whole entire room to yourself and having a luxury with 2 staircases and a little balcony inside to look over and watch people dance. The most interesting thing is that it has the length of 3 Football fields! Overall I liked it because it had interesting facts that will blow your mind!

2019 Camp Week.


This Term in Week 7 we had Camp and we went to the Olympic pools and Surfing on Monday and we went to the Skate park and mini golf on Tuesday and Motu School on Wednesday we also went through the Whinray reserve and we learnt about birds like the Weka. We went through the Kiwi enclosure and learnt about the kiwi and the Tuatara with Steve on Thursday and we went through Grays bush and the Museum of Technology on Friday.
I liked going through Grays bush because it was super fun and really cool. The interesting part about camp is what people had in the 90's I thought everything was interesting at the Museum of Technology because everything looked old. Camp was really cool and I can't wait to do it again next year.

Stem challenge.

 
This Term we were making purerehuas with Matua Steve and Purerehuas are a treasured object that you swing round and round so it makes a noise.
I found easy was sanding the Purerehua because all I needed to do was make sure the end and the sides were smooth so it would glide through the air.
The hard part for me was painting it because I had really skinny lines which made it hard to paint carefully in the lines.
The part I liked was making the design because I love to draw and it was fun to do and I would look after it forever.
