The hunter

In Te Ngahere we have been writing. In writing last week we
had to set ourselves a goal on what we were focusing on.
My goal was to choose words and phrases to enhance
meaning and/or mood most of the time. I think I did good
at it because I added words like Rumble, rumble, rumble,
my stomach screams for food. We had choices of what we
wanted to write about. Our choices were three videos.
One of the videos was called the dragon slayer, the others
were called Hunted and Pigeon Impossible. I chose to write
about Hunted, Hunted is about a little boy who is hungry
and really needs food.
 Here is my writing for you to enjoy.

The Hunter

Rumble, rumble, rumble, my stomach screams for food. Alone in the jungle, scanning for food,
I can’t remember the last time I ate.  All of a sudden I catch the aroma of delicious roast meat.
Like a dog I follow the sent. Climbing over obstacles on my way. 

I finally get there, my face gleams up in excitement ready to eat. Well I carefully tiptoe to the chicken,
I feel thrilled to reach out to it.

When I am reaching out to it, all of a sudden.. SLIP BANG!! In to a hole, all I see is darkness,
I set there terrified.

Looking around, I see a shadow, suddenly I hear a click, then a spark goes towards my eyes,
going blind for a few seconds realised I was upside down.

Energise

In Te Ngahere, We have recently had a great opportunity to learn
about the food we eat and what food is good for us, I found out that
the thinner the chip more the unhealthy it is. I also found out that
butter chicken is not good for us because most of it is cream. 

Here is a photo of what is healthy for you and not healthy.
The left side is healthy for you. the right side is unhealthy for you.
The left side has stir fry, sweet and sour pork, Rice, sushi, Burger and
chips, Subway and lamb kurbard. On the right side there is KFC,
Mcdonalds, pizza, Butter chicken and fish and chips.

Science Fair 2

In Te Ngahere, as you know we have been carrying out a scientific
investigation. Our investigation was to see which pen lasts the
longest. On Friday we had a competition to see witch investigation
won. I think we all won because it was the first time we have ever
done this before and our boards are at a high standard. Our group
came second as well as the paper towel investigation. 

Here is a picture of my groups board and how it was set out.

Science Fair

In Te Ngahere we have been learning to carry out a scientific
investigation.My investigation was to see which pen lasts the longest.
We did that by ruling 1 meter lines until it ran out.  After We finished
ruling lines with our pens (paper mate, office max, BIc and
Homebrand). Office Max lasted the longest and it lasted for 695m
(60,950cm) and the cost was 1.30$. The second one that last the
longest was Home brand (cost 30c),Bic (cost 90c) then Paper mate
cost 1.30$. The most challenging part was all ruling the lines and
writing. 

Here is my presentation with more information.

NED

In Te Ngahere we have recently had another great show at Paihia
school. This show was special because it was about our mindset
and how we set it. At the show Nicole did awesome yoyo tricks.
The main part of the show is about NED, NED stands for, Never give
up, Encourage others and Do your best those are the meanings for
NED. She also told us some stories about Ned’s adventure and when
things got hard he kept trying. For example He went to Mount
Everest and tried to climb it, when things went wrong a yeti named
yet turns up and tells Ned about the power of yet.
( you can't do maths yet)

 We also had to create something awesome.
