The most amazing and wonderful Sausage Bowl ever made in the whole entire world.

 This week we have been weaving flax. On Friday we are having a sausage sizzle we had to make a Harakeke plate to put our sausage. What we had to is we had to get 12 pieces of flax and then put 5 down then we had to put 7 down and weave. Then we had to do some folding. we also had to tie some of it to try make it stay on. We did this because it is are culture and it is Maratriki.  Have you ever made anything out of Harakeke?

Fake News Site

 This week we have been learning about fake news. What we have to do is make a poster about things that you could notice in fake news sites or fake news posters. We also had to make a fake animal and we are going to show it to the other classes to see if they can tell if it is real or fake. We were reading about the tree octopus and we all thought that it was real but it is fake. Have you heard of a tree octopus.?

The highest rocket

 The other day we had a test flight with one of our rockets. We have been learning about the physics of bottle rockets.  We put pressure into the bottle,  and then the pressure forces the water out making the rocket rise up.  We are learning about problem solving and we have a completition.

 It went SO high. One of the wings fell off when it was coming down because it hit the tree. Then we tried it again with only two wings but the top was not strong enough so it blew a big hole at the top! people are still making their's and I am too so hope we are done soon. Are you made a rocket before?
