Holiday Recount
I Know Someone Who Can...
I know someone who can
do a front flip and land on their feet.
I know someone who can
throw popcorn in the air and catch it in their mouth.
I know someone who can
juggle a soccer ball for a long time.
I know someone who can
do a hand stand into a forward flip.
I know someone who can
balance a book on their head.
I know someone who can
pull themselves along the grass with only their hands.
I know someone who can
do a bendy bridge.
I know someone who can
run round for two hours non stop.
I know someone who can
eat two buckets of popcorn and still be hungry.
I know some one who can
balance a pen on their arm and can catch it.
I know someone who can
eat two boxes of pizza.
And that someone is
Me!

My time at the Museum.
The next place we went to was the Natural discovery place of the Museum. There were: Moas, Kiwis, Penguins, Birds, Fosils and Dinosaurs. We saw different types of birds.
The next place we went to was the swamp. There was a bird hiding in the grass and there was a fake bird in the water swimming in the water.
After that we went and had our lunch. We got to play bull rush it was heaps of fun.
Then if we were finished our lunch, we were allowed to have some free time and just look at different stuff. But only on the first floor. I enjoyed looking at the exhibits. Then we had to go back to school on the bus. I wish we could go back to the Museum again.

Making 3D nets by Jarred
My 3D cube making experience
.By Jarred.
On Monday Mrs Walters came in and taught us about 3D and 2D shapes. The difference between a 3D shape and a 2D shape is that a 3D shape has width, depth, and length. But a 2D shape only has length and width but no depth. Then we found out that a 3D cube has: 6 faces, 8 vertices, and 12 edges. Then we had to choose a partner my partner was Jacob I choose Jacob because he stays on task. We had to use wine gums and Kebab skewers. After we finished making our 3D cube we had to estimate how long one Kebab Skewer would be. I guessed 20 cm then we had to measure it and it was 20 cm. Then we had to calculate how long all of them would be all together I calculated 240 cm. Then Jacob and I measured it and it was 240 cm. After we did that we were allowed to eat our wine gums they were delicious.
