Our support to the flounder catchers

Today at school was different. In the morning we had team 5 assembly then we walked onto the hard courts and sang a song along with our school karakia.

Soon after we walked down to riverside ave and onto the muddy and mushy grass down to Riki Rd. We then sang a waiata  and chanted some support to our Pt England flounder catchers. Such as "Catch some flounders oii" and "Go flounder catchers". I saw 12 Pt Englanders getting ready with there giant net moving towards other tides to where flounders maybe catched. We then sang another waiata that was mean't for blessings and protection also faith that they may be able to catch some flounders for our tank.

Not long after, we had to leave back to school, when we got to school we sat back down in to our team 5 street and was thanked from Mrs Tele'a and the teacher for being a great role model going down and coming back. We than headed into our literacy and sooner than we knew 1 hour was already gone by.

Perfect Punch

WALT: Solve word problems involving ratios and justify our thinking.
Today at class I learned about ratios. This presentation was about ratios and it contains how to my Mr Wiseman's perfect punch (as he calls it). The meaning of ratios is, how much of one thing there is compared to another thing. For example: If there is 1 boy and 3 girls you could write the ratio as  1:3 (for every one boy there  are three girls) Or 1/4 are boy and 3/4 are girls. Enjoy my presentation, and feel free to try a question)

Our slow motion scene

Every year we make a movie for the Manaiakalani film festival. This year our class is making a slow motion film. I was in a group with Sita and Machelle and the scene we were in charge of filming was bubblegum  popping. This is what our slow motion scene looks like.

Manaiakalani Film Festival Planning

Manaiakalani film festival is coming up. Manaiakalani is when schools get to make movies whether its about what they do, Something funny or something from the old days.

Room 1 is making a Manaiakalani movie, all about slow motion. We are creating a bunch of scenes, For example: Dropping a egg onto a mouse trap in slow motion. Slow motion is the action of showing or playing back a video more slowly than it was made or recorded, so that the action appears much slower than in real life. We are making a whole lot of scenes that conclude to slow motion. We hope you are excited to see our movie.
