The Amazing Minecraft Build challenge!!!

 

Lately, Haki and I and the rest of our class have been doing a building challenge on Minecraft. We had a desert island and we had to build something on it and explain what we have done. I and Haki made a Doomsday bunker with LOTS of different rooms. This project took us about a week or 2 I enjoyed doing it because we got to do Minecraft and enjoy ourselves and make whatever we want. We have been doing this to show the other Teachers that Minecraft can be used as a learning object and make them do it in their class. Have you ever used Minecraft and made something cool if you have I would LOVE to see it.!!

The Horrific NZ TOUR!!!

For about 2 weeks we have been doing a fun NZ tour on google earth. I have been working with Haki and we have a spreadsheet with the places we have been and how much we have sent the money. We start with $10000 and we can't spend over that amount. We have 14 days of the tour then we need to finish back home. I have been enjoying doing it because we get to choose anywhere in NZ I have been learning how to use google spreadsheets and use the formula and budget money using tools on the spreadsheet. Have you ever used Google earth and made an awesome virtual tour around the world if you have I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IT!!.   

The Intense Olympics

 

For the past week, we have been writing and watching the worldwide Olympics. I've been writing about Hayden Wilde and Andrew Knewstubb. We have been learning about the Olympics and people in the past. Hayden participated in the triathlon and Knewstubb was in rugby 7s. Hayden got NZ our first bronze and Andrew and their team got silver in rugby 7s. And today we got gold in the canoe race. The Olympics goes 1 every 4 years. I've enjoyed watching and researching about people that were in it. Have you ever seen or writ about the Olympics before? 

Jack’s And Cody’s SCOPE THE GOAT!!

I have been learning about how to code on Scratch and make games. This is important because it helps you code and your learning and problem-solving. This is mine and Cody’s pong game. We used 4 Like a background, goat, scope, and a forset. different things for this project and lots of different coding. There are tutorials to make different games but we didn’t use any because we knew what to do. The ball is a goat and the block is a Leupold scope. And if the goat hits the red it restarts. What do you think about this game? And have you made a game on Scratch before?

Non'Fiction or Fiction Poster

 

This is my poster on how to spot fake news. It has all the ways of finding if it real or fiction. We are learning about if the tree octopus is real or fake it's our reading task for the week and these are all the ways to find out if your news article is real or not. I enjoyed making this and writing all the ways. We used Canva to make posters and lots! of different stuff. Have you ever created a poster before??

The Wonderful Athletics

Last week some people in Kereru went to Westland High school for district athletics. I made it for 50m ,80m and 1000m. I got 1st in 50m and 2nd in 1000m I didn’t get to do 80m because I broke my ring finger and middle finger. I was really happy making it for West Coast athletics if I make it though for the west coast ill be going to Canterbury and I will race there. Have you ever made it though for anything in athletics before??

BOOK REVIEW!!!!!:Sticking With Pigs

 

This is an awesome book that I have been reading for the past few days. It's called Sticking with Pigs and it's written by Mary-Anne Scott. It’s about hunting pigs. So far I am enjoying reading this book, I am about a quarter of the way through. I enjoy hunting with my Dad, he has stuck a pig but sadly I wasn’t with him that time. Other times we have shot deer. Have you ever been hunting or thought you would like to go? Make sure you go with a responsible adult.
