E- ako maths

Today I was learning my fractions by using eako maths. I use eako maths to learn because it is way better to use and it is a much more fun way. Use eako maths because it is a much more fun way to learn your maths. I really like using eako maths so I know that you will too.

What is a river?

Mishaan and I worked together to create a DLO on what is a river. This was apart of our inquiry with Mrs Anderson. Mishaan and I has put labels on the Tamaki river map to show what we are talking about. We have tried our best to show a really cool DLO. 

Water care

 Last week we had our water care session with Sally. Mishaan and I were working together to get it done. Sally was teaching us about water care. We did cool experiments and all other things. On my DLO it will show you things that is important and what we have learnt. I really had fun with Sally. Thank you Sally for coming over to Panmure bridge school to teach us about water care. 

The Water Cycle

This week for inquiry group B were with Mrs Anderson.  This DLO shows what Zane, Joshua v, Jericho, and I had learnt. We were learning about the water cycle which repeats every time it rains, hails, snow etc. When the sun shines the water evaporates and turns into clouds, then all the clouds become close and they stick together  like best friends. The clouds are now big and heavy with water, they fall back on to our homes in the form of rain, which is also known as precipitation. When precipitation is done it collects in the sea, ocean, lakes, and rivers and it rests till the next coming. I didn't know what the water cycle was about but now I learnt information about the water cycle that I didn't know.  I am so glad that I had this session with Mrs Anderson.

Tech

Today we went to Tamaki college for our first day at tech. We have our sessions at food tech with Ms Heka. At tech we made spaghetti, bacon, cheese, and pineapple in bread which looked like cupcakes. Before we even started to do anything first we had to get our trolley that had our medium bowl, wooden spoon, 2 measuring cups, 2 choping boards, and a pink and green knife. We needed these tools because the medium bowl was used to mix all our ingredients in, spoon to mix our ingredients, 1 measuring cup is for the cheese and the other measuring cup was for the pineapple. Javeylor and I helped each other dice up the bacon, we also helped each other dice up our pineapples. When it was time to place our bread in our muffin trays it was a little bit hard because it kept on breaking so then Ms Heka told us to push the middle of the bread. Now everything goes into the bread and now it is in the oven. We take it out with oven gloves to be safe. Yuum they are delicious. Thanks to Ms Heka for preparing this for the year 8's.   

Kiwi sport - Futsal

Today we had futsal with Martin who is from Argentina. Futsal looks like soccer, well it's indoor soccer also known as futsal. Futsal is really fun. In futsal you wear flat shoes because it helps you keep control of the ball. Futsal is a little bit different because they have a smaller soccer ball which is heavy, have a smaller field because it is indoor soccer, goalie can only throw in the ball, and it's only a 40 minute game. First we played warm up games. Our first warm up game was flag tag, after that we played dribbling challenge, lastly we played the number game. I learnt that futsal is an indoor soccer game. I really enjoyed doing this with Martin and the LS2. Thank you Martin         

PBS values

Today LS2 have been going through our school values which are: Confidence, Attitude, Respect, Excellence and Innovation. My group and I were talking about what should we do to use as our pictures that are in out slides. In our slides it will show each value with a picture of our group trying to show what it means. We have tried our best to complete our work just in time. I really had fun working with new people because we showed each other what we were capable of.
