Inquiry creation!

By Anonymous -
In class for inquiry we have been working on something for the bush (which is at our school). 

We had to think of a problem that was in our bush. And I chose rubbish because we have a lot of rubbish in our bush. After we did our problem we did a game called crazy eights! It is a game where you get creative and we draw anything to save the bush. Not everybody chose rubbish some people chose birdhouses, stopping predators and more! But not only did we have to do that! We had to divide our page into eight squares then draw!

 After that we got creative again, but with heaps of craft stuff. But some people chose tinker-cad, and I was one of the people who chose tinker-cad! Something that was hard for me was putting all the shapes in my box. Because I had to make some shapes small and some big. Something that was easy for me was making the big shapes because I could just place it where I wanted it to be placed because you can see it clearly. What I learned was the word prototype!  it means its something new created such as testing something.
This is my rubbish robot!

Describing the setting

By Anonymous -
 This week we are working on using descriptive language by sharing our writing straight onto our blog. The challenge we have is to describe a place using only six sentences. After reading the description you need to guess the place that has been described. It would really help if you say what clues could help you come to this conclusion. Tall standing building tallest tower Sometimes glows at night shining different colours every second! near buildings that are very busy and also at the city been there for a long long time and has never fallen up in the clouds all pointy and still you can go inside it and have the most amazing view!

Des Hunt Visit's Waikowhai

By Anonymous -
Hello fellow bloggers! Today Waikowhai Primary had a special visitor that came in the morning, It was a very popular Author called Des Hunt! He writes all sorts of books for children that are aged up to 9-12 years old. He came here because he wanted to tell us all about his backstory and why he became a Author/illustrator.           Also at the end of the show we got to buy some of his books at morning-tea! He even talked about chemistry and what sort of jobs he did.         Right at the end we got to ask some questions as well before morning-tea. My favourite part was when he made a explosion all the way to the bench,         But I really like the huge explosion he created because it was bigger and it looked      like it could shoot better, then it shot all the way to another student!       I think it was the most important because when there are heaps of flies you can just put heaps of         fliespray in a little container and then you can explode it and the smell would k
