Science: Pulleys

We made a pulley to get Mr Grinlings lunch from his house to

the lighthouse.

Pulleys are machines that make work easier.

Watch our video on our class blog.

Matariki Star

I made this Matariki Star by weaving coloured paper.

We watched a video that showed us what to do.

Then Whaea Annie showed us what to do.

We worked with our friends and helped each other.

It was hard. You had to concentrate and follow the instructions carefully.

Brushing Teeth

Teeth are important for chewing our food.
We need to look after them.

So I think we should brush our teeth every day.

Firstly I think we should brush our teeth every day

so that our teeth are healthy and strong.

When you Brush your teeth you can wash

the bacteria a way.

Secondly I think we should brush our teeth
every day because our teeth might get yuck
if don’t brush our teeth so if you leave
the food in your mouth bacteria can make holes in your teeth.

Thirdly I think we should brush our teeth everyday so

we can protect our teeth from the bacteria.

When you wash your teeth the bacteria
can go away and then your teeth will be safe.

So that’s why I think we should brush our teeth every day.

Recount Writing-At Jump

At Jump

“I can jump higher than you!” shouted my big brother.

In the sunny holidays me, my brother and my papa

went to Jump in Whangarei. It was Saturday afternoon.

We were so excited. We were jumping up and down

and giving each other high fives. We couldn’t wait to get there.

The first thing we did when we got there was

playing in the games room. It was fun because they had a hoop and we played shoots.

Next we played shoots on the trampoline.

That was hard because we kept on jumping high.

When we tried to shoot we just bounced too high

and we kept missing the hoop. To work out the problem we did some slam dunks.

We jumped from the trampoline to the hoop. It was much easier to do that.

After that my papa found a course for us to try.

We had to jump on these rings that were hanging from a bar.

You had to twist and try and swing to the next ring without falling.

If you fell you had to go back to the start. It was pretty hard but we did it.

I only fell once. My brother fell twice.

My papa was able to do it without falling on his first try.

I said to papa, “Good job Papa.” I gave him a hug.

We really enjoyed going to Jump with our papa.

It was cool.
