Problem solving

Earlier this term in maths Room 14 learnt about rectangular prisms and how to make one with the length,width  and the height and we also learnt what 3D stands for,it stands for the three dimensions.

Then we moved on to  our group work this was my group me,Faiupu and Ezekiel we had to explain how we made this and why we think its right so we all explained how we got the answer in the quickest way that we could and we were proud of our answer.

       The whole class had to estimate how many 1 cm cubes could fit in these boxes from order of size                     smallest to biggest  and me and my friend Faiupu got the same answer and we were surprise.

 The next day we the next day we measure the length,width and height and me and Faiupu got all the answers  right and we were proud.

Speech recognition

Today we had to use a new tool called speech recognition if you don't know what speech recognition is I'll tell you. It's when you have to speak to your Chromebook,Mac book and laptop  as if it was stupid/2 year old.We used speech recognition to do this comment.

Jump rope

This week in kauri team we did a  fundraiser for jump rope for heart we did all sorts of skipping but this is  Faiupu and he is doing a relay with his friend Ben they had to run while skipping at the same time to see who wins and Faiupu won.

This is me in the red shirt this is my friend Paora he and i were doing independent skipping  we had a competition to see who can skip the longest but we ended up stopping together so we both won.

 Me Paora skipped to the very end of the jump rope for heart and this is us doing the peer skipping and our high score for the peer sipping was 19.

This is my friend Brandon and he is doing the hula hoop skip my friend Nikola the photographer  took this cool picture of Brandon in mid air the and it looks so awesome.

This is Fardosa she did the most skips in the whole school she did 148 skips with out stopping in one go she is the best skipper but not the fastest the fastest skipper i know is Haofei he is the fastest skipper i know but the good thing is that we had a fun day and a good work out the whole kauri team enjoyed it and we all  had fun:¬) 

Samoan language week:¬)

Last week we had Samoan language week and all of the Samoan kids contributed in it the little kid  from Room 9 opened it up for us Samoan kids they did two performances and they did a speech.

 Then we had a dance from the girls from Room 10,Room 14 & Room 15 they look so like Samoan girls                                                and that made Room 10 teacher proud

And then we had a speech from Hermione & her brother Presley they talked about the 51st year of Independence for Samoa.

 Then we had a slap dance from Presley and his cousin Faiupu  and they were so fast that nobody  could keep up with there hands.

                                                Then all the Samoan boys stood up and we did the Samoan haka we slapped loud and we said the words loud we did it for the pride of our country.

Tennis players

This week in room fourteen we have been learning  how to play tennis with Josh he taught  us how to hit the                 ball with the tennis racket and in the middle it's called a sweet spot.

                  We had to listen very carefully so we can be the best we can so we can be professional if you                                                            like to be a tennis player.

We had to master how to keep the tennis ball on the sweet spot if you don't know what the sweet spot is i will  tell you it is the middle of the racket and it allows you to hit the ball further and better.

We practised and practised and when we got the hang of it we did rallies. A rallies is when the ball goes back and forward like it's repeating.

This is what a racket looks like if you don't know what it looks like we used it every single time we went to tennis we had to pick it up like a professional tennis player we started with a L and we changed in to a V and we scrolled down to the end where the grip it was and it called the forehand grip and that's how we pick up a racket.

Anzac cookies

This is when we had work collaboratively and we made Anzac cookie together and we had to make it small  because it spreads when it gets in the oven.
