For the past few days we were learning about puns, which is a play of words. Each of us had to come up with our own pun online. If someone already done that pun then we had to find another pun. After we found a pun we had to draw it out. We glued the pun on top of the paper.  


In this photo we did some brainwashing, like actually brainwashing. This was the starting of learning about puns. When Mrs told us we thought she was serious but then she got out a bowl, a squishy brain, and water. It was fun learning about puns.

For the past few weeks we have been playing matific. It is a programme where kids do maths. The goal is to try and win $50,000 in cash for the class or school. In matific I have 82 stars in the competition. This screenshot shows what level I am on. I really want our school ti win the money so we can buy a new park for the seniors.

Balloon volleyball

Last week Friday we went inside the hall to play some volleyball but in case of using a volleyball we used balloons. It was a lot of fun playing balloon volleyball because you will see people trying their hardest to slide across the hall to get the balloon back up in the air.

This week for maths we are learning how to add and subtract integers.  In the first screenshot I got 70% I know how to add and subtract integers but I don’t know how to do it with larger numbers. In the second screenshot it was the same thing but it was a lot easier. In the last screenshot I got it all right and it was kind of easy for me. I would practise these sites so I can get a better understanding of adding and subtracting integers.

For this weeks reading we had to choose four out of six activities then complete all four. After we completed the four we had to choose two activities that help us to get a better understanding of the topic. I chose to do activity one and four because the first one helped me gain more information on how to kill weeds and pests. Then on activity four I chose it because I wanted to make a poster on killing pests and weeds. Gaining more ideas was one of my goals I want to achieve.

Maori song



Today Natalia and I weren't here to hear Ms Maude sing her maori song because I was with Mrs Thompson working on our movie we are making.  I hope we will be here next week for maori so I can listen to the whole class sing then I will join. I looked at the photos and it looked like a lot of fun.

During lunch time eating Mrs collins shouted room eight by buying us pizza. She brought it for us because three out of 25 kids completed the winter learning journey. The reason I didn't do it was because I didn't have a device to go on.

Rounding to the nearest tenth



This week for maths we have been learning how to round off decimals to the nearest ten. I really enjoyed playing this maths games It helped me have a better understanding of what we were learning about. At first I didn't know how to round off decimals to the nearest ten. After my teacher explained to us if the number is higher than five then you add one, but if it is lower than five then the number just stays the same. This game was easy for me to do.

Football skills

While we were playing soccer we were separated into four groups. Our coach’s name was Steve he taught us a few skills. He was from Auckland football. These are some of the skills he taught us:


List skills
  1. Dribbling with the outside of our foot, the inside, our lace, and the sole of our shoe
  2. He told us not to kick with our toes
  3. We needed to work as a team
  4. Passing the ball
  5. Controlling the ball


If I had to give myself a score I would give myself a 5. I tried my best to get a score in the net. Out of all the skills I think that dribbling the ball was hard for me to master. I always kick the ball too hard or too short. If I want to go to sport camp and play soccer than I will need a lot of practise.


I can’t compare soccer to any of the sports I play. The only sport I play is netball and I don’t know how to compare it with netball.


When we were playing soccer it was a lot of fun. Playing soccer was really fun and I can’t wait until we play soccer again next week Wednesday.
