Who am I

Does anyone know a game called Who am I? I do. Today Room 8 did a game called Who am I and it was a fun activity to do with my class.

Miss Parrant said if you are holding the paper you can’t cheat and you can ask questions to figure out the answer.The other person acts it out. My group was Nahea and Nevayah.

Nahea was holding the paper while Nevayah and I had to act it out and we can say yes or no. If it was hard we just say one thing that relates to the answer. Sometimes we gave her a hint to help when she is stuck.

After that everyone in my group would have a turn.When we are done with the paper we give it back to Miss parrant and get another one but different to what we did before.

It was a fun experiment to do as a class. It went well. It was fun because it was funny and we can only say yes or no. I wish we could play Who am I again with my class.

Km and M

Convert these measurements to either km or m

3000 m =  300km	15.5 km = 155m
4500 m = 4.5km	13500 m = 13.5km
6.7 km =67m	9700 m = 9.7km
5.6 km = 56m	4.9 km = 49m
7800 m =7.8km	12.9 km =129m
300 m =3.0km	0.9 km =09m
6.5 km =65m	0.65 km = 065m
700 m = 7.0km	750 m = 7.5km
4500 m = 4.5km	1.4 km = 14m

Marshmallow Challenge

Have you ever heard of a marshmallow challenge. Well I have today me and my class did a challenge with one marshmallow on top and we did it in groups. It was a fun challenge to do with my class. My group was Jordin,Mata and Faga.

Firstly we sat on the blue space and Miss Parrant said have 18 minutes to build the tower. We were given strings to use and pasta but raw and tape also one marshmallow to put on the top when your done. If it touches the wall or anything to lean on then your out and Miss Parrant will measure the tallest free standing tower to win.

First we got one pasta then used tape and we just did that a few more times. Then we made a square and my teams tower kept falling over and over also breaking some times. Which was a problem for our group so we tried again and again.

We put the final touch on the tower which was a marshmallow. It was a wonky tower and it kept falling we used a lot of the pasta and tape on the tower so that it won’t fall again. But instead it fell so we just did it again and again until it stopped falling.

My group completely forgot about the strings we were fine with it and we lost. At the end our tower broke at 1 minute till the timer was done but we got to recover at the end of the timer. It was a pretty bad tower without the string to help us out.

Term 4 Goals and Expectations

Term 4 Goals and Expectations

Walt: use correct sentences to help structure our writing.

The school holidays are over and the term has started.The topic for this term is Te Wa Toi. It means time for art and everyone will be doing different kinds of art which includes animals, zoos and other things.

The reason why am excited for this term is because of different events that will happen like film festival and athletics day also year 6 camp in November.

My goals for this term are finishing my writing and soon my reading so that I can post both of the things on my blog so people can see what I have done.

I am hoping to learn about different kinds of art and other things like reading and writing so that I am ready for anything like a test or some other stuff that doesn’t even include art.

So term 4 is a really busy term because we have a lot of events going on like athletics day and year 6 camp also film festival and other things. My goals are to achieve is my writing and reading. I even want to learn about different kinds of art.
