My Chocolate Mug Cake!

So today I went on a Face time with my teacher and Classmates and we did our Prayers and talked about what we were going to do today and today we are just doing one subject because usually on Fridays we go to technology but since with everything that is going on in the world right now we are quarantined in our houses and doing online school and so we are doing Topic but it's really fun topic! But before I talk about anything else and I will always talk about in my blog posts until this is over. So I just wanted to say everybody stay safe and stay home and it's really important to stay hygienic especially in a time like this. So yes please do what I said cause it is very dangerous to go outside and just like go and meet up with your friends but dont do that! Thank you but anyways lets get on with what I am really here for.

So today as I said I went on a call with my teacher and classmates and talked about what we were going to do for Topic! So what we had to do for Topic was to look at this site that had a video and some information about Physical and Chemical Changes. So if you do not know what Physical and Chemical Changes are then you came to the right place! So first of all a Physical Change is when a type of change is not formed into anything, for example boiling water. A Chemical Change is the exact opposite of a physical change so a Chemical change must be a type of change that a new type of substance is formed.  And today we got to make something that was included with Physical or Chemical Changes and I am going to make a Chocolate mug cake! It is a really easy recipe and it has a physical change because it does not get formed into anything!

(I couldn't add videos cause i dont know how to) Here are some photos of me making the cake:

Something I enjoyed was making the cake cause it was really fun to do school and do something fun at the same time!

Something I found difficult was trying to get the videos on this blog post so I can explain what I am doing but seems like I dont know how to do it but oh well!

Stay tuned for some more baking work hopefully! Oh and by the way it tasted so good!

Virtues

So I know that I haven't posted anything for a while now because teachers and principals have made the holidays come forward so now I'm back to good content and good quality work! And I hope everyone if staying at home and staying safe and always washing your hands for 20 seconds especially with like the whole Virus and all the things that are right now happening. But how I like to say things when it is a time like this is to stay positive and keep your working streak up! But for this week for R.E we are learning about different Virtues. Virtues are ways that you can live like Jesus and make our world a better place to live in! So we had to do 9 different activities! 

And yes I know that is a lot but I got through it so the first activity we had to do was fill out a google form of what we already know about Virtues and to be honest I didn't know anything until the next activity which was we had to listen and read to some facts about Virtues. Then the 4th activity after that was to go on this google doc and write your name and write three Virtues and add what they meant, after we had to fill out another google form but I forgot what it said in it and stuff like that but of course its gonna be about Virtues. After that activity we had to listen to the story of the Rainbow fish. Then after that we had to fill out a google doc asking us some questions about us people and the Rainbow fish to do with Virtues cause Virtues is what we are learning! And the last activity which is the one I am going to post was to make a Venn Diagram about how Jesus showed different Virtues and how people showed different Virtues and in the middle we had to include how people can show Virtues to be more like Jesus! And the last activity was we had o draw a flower that had 5 raindrops and 6 petals on like a stalk of a flower and in the petals we had to write what Virtues we wanted to do and in the Raindrops we put how people showed Virtues!

So here is mine:

Something I enjoyed was talking to you guys about what I did even though it was kind of Tiring.
Something I found Difficult was one of the activities which was the one where we had to answer the questions of people and like the Rainbow fish cause I dont know I just found it hard to thing of the right answers to the questions.

Stay Tuned for more Fantastic Work!

An Unexpected Adventure

So I am still doing online school and I hope all of you are staying home and staying safe! But anyways this week for writing we had to choose a prompt from the slideshow that Ms Wilton made for us and there were 10 different prompts and the first one was An Ice Plunge, the second one was under the bed and the third one was Expecto Patronum. The fourth one was on the prowl, the fifth one was Homecoming and the sixth one was The Beginning, the Seventh one was An Unexpected Adventure and the eighth one was Mr Wolf, the ninth one was Hanging on and lastly the tenth one was also called Hanging on apparently but yeah!

So we had to choose one of those prompts and I decided to choose the seventh one which is the Unexpected adventure cause I found it really interesting and there was a story starter and we had to use the story started in our story and their were lots of activities we had to do for our writing as well and then we used to learn these languages features so we had to include them in our writing so here is my story and all the activities that I had to do for my prompt:
Red - Alliteration
Blue - Onomatopoeia
Orange - Metaphor 
Green - Hyperbole
Yellow - Personification
Brown - Simile
Pink - Idiom

She knew that it hadn’t been a good idea to leave the tap running, but now she was starting to enjoy
herself. Then suddenly the next moment she would blink her eyes there was a big hole!
All the water just started draining into the hole like a Human sucking so much food! Even the shower,
bathtub, toilet and like everything in the bathroom!

“Woah” Emily said! “Where am I”? “It’s so dark in here I can’t see a thing!,
Maybe it’s just my eyesight or I don't even know!” “But I need to get back to my house otherwise my
Parents are going to worry”! I felt the darkness suck me in the air!  “Wait, I just forgot their on Vacation,
well at least it gets me more time to get out of here cause I don’t want to stay here forever!” So as
Emily
kept walking to a direction she found a hidden tunnel or should I say sewer that led to the sea! She
decided to get something from her pocket called a Golden apple that can give you a ride under sea
with a bathtub! You know what they say the early human gets a bath!

And as she slowly, sluggishly, swam with a stinky shark to the sea and she could see her dreams come
true. She saw all the different animals and then splash all she could think about was living there
but the ride was like millions of miles… 10 years later… So after those years she knew she got her
dream in the winners bag and she lived under the sea with all of her friends happily ever after!
But where are her parents….. 

The Different Activities:

The Questions:
My Answer:
Where did her Journey begin?
Emily left the tap on and then when she came
back into the bathroom the whole room was
flooded and it even made a big hole!!!!
Why was it unexpected?
Because she didn’t really know what was
going to happen and then a big hole
happened and she forgot to turn the
tap off so it was just a big mess.
Where will she go on her adventure?
Well she goes and sees her dream come
true and she never knew that it would happen
especially like this way and she loves to see
animals and she always wanted to live under
the sea!
What things will she encounter?
Her dream is living under water and even
seeing animals and living the best time of her
life but the only thing she doesn't know is if
she will see her parents ever again.
How will she get back home?
Her animal friends can take her back
safely at her house door and her parents
won’t be worried anymore because they
finally found their daughter.
How might she be feeling in the adventure?
Very happy and worried and also sad at the
same time cause she would feel happy cause
her Dream has come true. Worried because
she doesn't know what her parents would
think and sad cause she would miss her
family!
What will her Parents be thinking?
They would probably be very worried and
they would go looking for her until they find
her!
Would you like to go on an adventure like this? If you do please explain.
I don’t really want to, to be honest because
I would be very scared and I don’t want to
go all the way under sea and I would miss
my Family.

ANZAC Activities

Right now I am at home doing my online school and I know most of you could be doing some online school now cause there is just so many things happening in the world right now so stay home and stay safe, keep washing your hands and don't touch your face! But besides the negative side lets move on to the positive side which is my work! So this week for Reading we had to read and listen to a passage about the Anzac's First World War Memorials. And we also had to read another three passages and one was about the Memorials and there was also a video about their like message to those who died and the last passage was about us to learn more about the red Poppy and then after we had to make a DLO about all these activities and there were 8 activities that we had to complete.

It did take me quite a while to do the activities but I finally got there! Ms Wilton told us to post only two of the activities but we still needed to do all of them! So I chose to post Activity 4 which is we had to list 10 consequences what would happen if we had no war so here are my reasons:
The next and last one I wanted to post was Activity 6 which was we had to make a DLO about what we have learnt so we has to like to a survey and graph of what I've learnt so basically I ask myself questions then answer them so here it is:

Something I enjoyed was finding really good facts about ANZAC Day!
Something I found difficult was thinking of different ways I could present My DLO's cause I just like wanted to do something different but it ended up like this but thats all goods!

Stay Tuned for more work!

Maori Words

So this week for R.E we talked about the different languages that we can use to call someone or explain it to some one and we also had to think about how Jesus was these different words. The different Maori words were Te Whanau, Matamua, Tuakana, Te Karaiti, Whaea, Matua, Tupuna, Kuia and Kaummatua. We had to discover what they meant and so we got a littke help from google! The hardest one that I couldn't really find was Te Karaiti but then I went on to the Maori Dictionary and I finally found it after like a few minutes. We had to make a DLO about those different words and I decided to make a powtoon cause I feel like it would be way easier. Ms Wilton told us to use SISOMO which is Sight, Sound and Motion and we had to include that in our DLO so I screencastified it as well so people can here me.

So here is my DLO:

Something I found Difficult was searching up the words.

What I found easy was making my actual DLO.

The Different Roles

So I think that most of you have noticed that I have been posting a lot lately well that is because I have been doing so much work lately and I just can't stop posting my work cause I really do love posting my Work on my blog to teach you guys and maybe to learn from you guys as well and so I can improve in my next activity! Anyways this week for R.E we learned about Jesus' Matamua and His Tuakana and if you don't know what either of those words mean then you have come to the right place cause I'm about to tell you what they mean. So Matamua means like the first born child in your family and Tuakana means little Brother or Sister. So those are the meaning of those words and we talked about Jesus' Matamua and His Tuakana!

After talking about Jesus' Matamua and Tuakana we talked about the different Roles that they might have like our own Matamua and Tuakana. So we had to make a DLO about Our own Roles, Our Parents/Caregivers Roles and our Matamua and Tuakana's Roles. So I have Parents and Myself and also Tuakanas and we also had to do it for like a Daily life so here are the different Roles:

>

Something I enjoyed was thinking about what we would actually do and thinking about how each of us could improve.

Something I found difficult was trying to think of how to set it out cause I found it really hard but then I found out of what I could do!

Stay Tuned for more work!

Teaching My Strategy

WALT Problems ? + 29 = 81.

So this week we also didn't have any Maths work to do and so we also have to do another DLO about the Strategy we learned last week. And I decided to just do a Slideshow cause it's nice and simple and easy to show my Strategy. My Strategy is about working out what the unknown number is and trying to understand how to use the strategy and so if you want to solve something like ? + 29 = 81, and so how you need to solve this is to use a number line and this is going to be good for those who don't know how to solve things like this then keep reading and if you do then goof job on you.

So how you solve this type of question is using a number line and there will be some adding and some Minus going on with this strategy. If your only going to be using adding then the first number from the ones column needs to be lower then what the answer is in the ones column as well like this: ? + 23 = 58 So that's when you use addition. When you want to use Minus then the first number in the ones column has to be over than the answer in the ones column.

But anyways here is my DLO to teach more about my Strategy:

Something that I enjoyed was drawing the number line cause I actually kind alike teaching people and now I like teaching them how to use a number line!

Something I found difficult was not really anything because I had my strategy in my Maths book to help me out so that was fine!

Stay tuned for more Maths work!
