At the end of Term 4

I'm just waiting to get to the holidays because I can spend time with my family and text and facetime my friends still.

I'm going to miss some of the people that are leaving from year 6.

I'm going to miss the learning coaches even though they are staying next year.

I can't wait for Christmas with all of the presents and gifts under the tree. I also enjoyed decoating the tree and making it look awesome.

I think that I've done a lot with my work and I'm proud of myself for getting a lot of work done this year and also learning a lot.

I've got a lot of nice and awesome friends:
Mragret, Riyah, Jahnavi, Aleena, Ash, Johanna, Jessicas, Divya, Kavisha, Taanvi, Anjli and Neha and many many more.

Margaret: she is always kind, helpful and always is happy.

Riyah: funny and silly and awesome.

Aleena: leader queen, but also, awesome at sports.

Ash: plans the best discos.

Johanna: talks in her own way.

Jessica: cute and cubby

Divya: star stable queen

Taanvi: the  best worker

Anjli: awesome at dancing and is brave at preforming.  

Neha: awesome at singing. Sang at the talent show without any music.

Our iExplore for next Term

My iExplore is to make a cake for the learning coaches.

Anjli and Margaret are doing a mask party for the year 6 and 7 for next term.

Riyah and I are making a chocolate heaven cake for the learning coaches. I have searched up the way to make the cake, frosting and eatable play dough. 

So both our groups are working together to get our iExplore's to work and make sure its successful.

We are having a lot of food: fruit punch, ice cream, ice cream float and many more.

So how we are going to do this is we are going to get the learning coaches to be build folded and then we and going to bring out the cake and surprise them. 

The left over cake will be for us and some other learners.

We are going to have music with fun party music. We are having Margaret and I doing the music playing and working out the music.

We all are making the cake. No more people because 4 should be enough because last time, we had a lot of people doing the hot chocolate and cookies and we had problems through out the day.

Trash to Flash

In LH1, we are doing a trash to flash iExperince. 

What we have to do is find what ever we have at home and bring it for a trash to flash item.

My item is a snowy bear or panda. Is a meant for a Christmas decoration but it can be placed in on a shelf and kepted on forever and ever. Their choice.

My group includes: Aleena, Kavisha, Vrishti, Margart, Riyah, Sally, Sadeen, Norah, Nisita.

items we have to have are: cotton balls, foam circles, ornaments, black marker, glue.

So this is how to make it for people that want to try it out:
Step 1. Shape foam into a 3D circle shape and glue a ornament underneath. Your ornament cane be any colour you want. You can also use any glue you want but it has to be sticky.

Step 2. Shape cotton balls into arms and legs for your bear and glue those on. Also shape ears and also glue them on.

Step 3. Then draw a face with your black marker. There are many faces you can draw and so you choose.

This is a Christmas decoration and id perfect for people that enjoy Christmas time and want to see a cute bear at their sight.

So, I hope you're not this weeks blog post. Make sure to try out the Snowy Bear or Panda project!
Bye for now!

Oh, by the way, here is picture of what the bear would look like:

Goggle Expection about Sharks!!

Sharks

My learning from the Google Expection is about Sharks. 

There are many species of sharks that are lowing down because a lot of people kill then just because they kill people. You shouldn't be doing that because sharks didn't mean to do it and after, they are like 'Yuck! That human tastes gross!'. At lot of hunters and mean humans cut shark fins off for shark fin soup. That is one way for a species of sharks to lower. There are many sharks each day that die all around the world and the more they die, the more their species don't exist anymore.

There was many sharks out there that exist and they are unique in their own way. Like the great white. The great white is the the most human eating shark. That is why swimmers have to stand in a under water cage to be able to research them because if they go out, they might be eaten.

Did you know that many sharks are lowering because of human hands? Yes! Humans are the ones who kill them. Shark fin soup! Humans cut the fins! 

After cutting their fins, they just throw the sharks back into the water. Some sharks live but a lot don't live after their fins are cut off. Shark fins and the most important parts of a shark. To us, it warns us if sharks are near and to them, they don't really know because there sharks!

A lot of sharks that don't swim will die. Crazy right! Sharks have to swim because they look for prey and also watch out for their enemies.

100 million sharks are killed each year. That is a lot and you have to think how sharks are. They don't mean to kill you. They are just hungering. Sharks also die from hunger if they don't eat. A lot of other people guess that 273 million sharks are killed each year. That is more that 100 million of them.

Sharks primarily feed on smaller fish but some species prey upon seals, sea lions, and other animals that are mammals. Sharks have been known to attack when they are confused or curious. If a shark sees a human splashing and playing in the water, it may become curious and try to investigate, leading to an accidental attack to the human body in anyway.

Primarily, if people see a shark fin, they would run out of the water. A lot of the times, life guards call out to the swimmers because a lot of the time, swimmers don't see the shark. 

A lot of sharks spawn in beach water. So a lot of people have shark attacks there. 

Baby sharks (called pups) are born with a full set of teeth and are fully ready to take care of themselves. They quickly swim away, even from their mothers who might eat them. Litter size ranges from one or two pups for a great white shark) to over 100 (for a large blue shark and the whale shark).

So there you have it. A shark blog post! Please make sure you don't ever go into the water with a dangerous looking shark like a great white. Please stay safe.

Thank you for tuning into my blog today and I hope you enjoy facts about SHARKS!!!!!!


Oh, before you go anywhere, another thing we did at the Google Expection, we also learned about shark habitats and where they lived. We also checked out the 7 wonders of the world. They were awesome. From temples to land and we also used the Google glasses. It seemed like we were there, under the water with the sharks. The whale shark kind of frightened me a bit because it was so big! When it came to under water, it seemed like we were sitting on the ground under water. I was kind of expecting the sharks to be a like a real under water research team there where the sharks move but no. :( Everytime, it seemed like you were there and when we saw the trees, we were sitting on the dirt. Yuck! When it came to the 7 wonders of the world, we were flying in the sky and it was so cool. It was #oresome!

Hapu Birds!

In LH1, we have Hapu birds. Kea, Kiwi and Pukeko. Mr Dyer is Kiwi's. Mrs Dillner is Kea's and Miss Denuwara is Pukeko's. 

There is a challenge in the Hapu groups. We look at a picture of where our bird is at. If we know where that place is, we go and take a picture and then show it to the learning first person gets to take the bird home.

They have to write a blog post about a adventure they went on and post it on the habitat blog site. They could be on a roller coaster, eating dinner, playing, visiting the new pak n save. Cool places like that. 

Aryan was the first out of the Kiwi's.

Justin V was the first out of the Kea's.

Aleena was the first out of the Pukeko's.

I feel like, having birds and bird names for our Hapu group is #oresome because it gives us a chance to learn and we may want to a iExplore about it, I don't know. 

I hope you enjoy today's show (aka, blog post) I hope you learned about our Hapu birds and thank you for tuning in. Bye!!

iDentity

In LH1, we have been learning about our identity's.

Each learning coach did a different topic based on identity.

I missed out on one of the iExperinces because I was doing something in Antarctica. I did a blog about Antarctica and what I did so check it out.

Mrs Mcan's iExperince: what we did on thee first time we did it was we went on a website and had to write down 5 facts about one of the topics. Taanvi and I choose Farming and Harveting. First finishers did a quiz. We got only 60%. :( On the second part, we did some colouring. We had to colour in a sheet and then glue it into our book and then write a reflection.

Mr Dyers iExperince: On the first part, we had to draw or take a pic of us and then write what identity means and what it means to us. I did a Pic Collage. On the second part, we searched up on what our name meant. My name meant a flower.

Those were the iExperinces I did.

Thank you for tuning into my blog for this week.
