Swing story

For Te Kinga today we made a story with a song and a image credits and link in the post.

Multi modal reading

In Te Kinga we have been doing a project called multi modal reading we have been doing it for this term we have been given multiple
options we are usually given a few videos and we watch them then we gather information from them.
Then a another task is we have to answers  some questions from the options. this week we have been learning about toilet paper. I really enjoy doing this it is also helping me with gathering my information.

Anzac day

Inspired writing

For Te Kinga class we have been doing online inspiredwriting or writing about favourite thing about lockdown.

Lockdown

My favourite thing about the lock down has been riding my bike and spending time in the native bush on our farm.

Dad has been teaching me how to operate a 4 ton digger and I made a big walk through ditch for mums horses.

We have a podocarp forest on our farm. Dad and I have

been working on making tracks through the bush so

we can ride our bikes through it.

I have been going out to the forest searching for fungi because Mum photographs it. I ride my motorbike through the paddocks to get to the bush which is great as there is heaps of mud about.

There's heaps of cool birds in the bush too, fantails, robins, wood pigeons and black fantails.

Fibonacci

 today on the 2.11.19 Te king learned about Fibonacci and i did flowers and to also see if the petals had an Fibonacci number here is some information these two plants are not following Fibonacci.

neither is this one because Fibonacci has its own number and the amount of pedals on this flowers is not a Fibonacci number

but this is the only that i found that follows Fibonacci because it connects with the Fibonacci number  

on Monday the 11 of November te kinga went sailing we hit the water like terake drum it felt so good but a new feeling it was my first ever time sailing and it was with Tyler thankfully because Tyler is very experienced at sailing first we set off me and Tyler were in the top 3 Zak and Cameron were leading there  once we got out in the middle of the lake we started doing really tight turns i got quite worried because it was my fist time  sailing next we played a ball game there was 2 teams 1 was 1-4 vs 4-8

 every boat had to touch the ball then we headed back to land  getting towed 

History of tom as a tunnel digger

History of Tom as a tunnel digger

 In the year 1923 Tom and his buddies were finishing a day of banging a
few more holes in the nearly finished tunnel. His shift was almost done 
when he heard a sound of people digging on the other side, everyone
gave a big hit and the wall collapsed. After a big cloud of dust swept
through the tunnel they met the people from the other side. 

After they walked to the end of the tunnel and got a ride with a local horse
carriage person named Lil. She asked where they wanted to go and the
answer to that was the pub. 

Five horses were used to pull a carriage and the road was rough and
jagged so they had to take a horse.  It was a bumpy ride but they got
there safe and sound. Everyone got drunk that night, they even put a
bit of bacon throw a mangle!

FACTS:

1. What did ill's family often live in A: tents 

2. Which section of  the road needed carriages A:  Arthur's pass to Otira 

3. How did cars get up the hill earl 1920s A: 2 

horses tow them

4.In what year did the Otira tunnel open A: 1923 

5. Accidents often happen with the horses on the steep bits A:
false Started 1907.       End 1923

How mass affects the swing of a pendulum

In our class we have been doing science experiments for this one we did pendulum science. First there is the normal one then the one were we did painting. Here is mine.

How mass affects the swing of a pendulum

Question:

How long does it take to stop swinging depending on its mass.

Aim/Hypothesis:

We think that objects with more mass will go for longer

Results 

This is how long it took for each of the objects to stop singing.

Bottle 2mins 59 secs . 63

Microphone   2 mins 48 secs . 98

 Blue pen 2 mins 7 secs.40

Highlighter 2 mins 41 secs.19

Conclusion: It is true objects with more mass do swing for longer

Here is my second one

Science Report Pendulum Painting

Aim/Hypothesis: 

Our hypothesis was that it was going to be easy to make a pendulum painting device. Our aim was to make one.

Results:

First we tried using paint but it didn’t work because it was too watery.
So we tried again but the hole was too small. So the paint was to thick to fit
threw the hole or we are just unlucky. We tried to make a bigger hole and
the paint was still to thick. So we tried flour and it didn't go through the
funnel so we gave up.

Conclusion:

In the end our hypothesis was wrong and we didn’t achieve our aim
nothing worked. Maybe next time we could plan more and come up with
a better mix.

Gold mining in Waiuta

This term Te king have a topic of local history so we did research about the ghost town Waiuta and me Jakob and Zak have made this it is about the history of waiuta and how the got gold and where it was mined with also a mini video hope you enjoy.

Te kinga work interviews

Recently tekinga have been interviewing people from our local community just today we interviewed Jarred he worked in the air force and many other jobs including the bumble and friends show and many others and worked with Jason Gunn

Maths experiment

Me and my group for maths did an experiment about weight so first of e got a A4 piece of paper and folded it in half. And did instructions   the  instructions lead us to making a paper boat and to put marbles in the boat to see how many marbles it could hold. We have some photos that i will show you soon  we also made two boats on normal sized and a half sizes  this is the picture i know that is not the best but its  OK for the subject. So for my big boat i got 65 witch weighed 350 and my small one is 25 witch weighed 110 so it is pretty clear and obvious that the bigger one does more better i was really surprised that the paper didn't absolve really quickly. here is  the picture hope you enjoyed

FAIR TRADE

This term at lake brunner school te kingag  we were learning about child labour there is a company
called fair trade.They are a great company that only treat kids with pure respect.Only do fair trades their

1. Why do you think integrity is important?it helps you help other people yourself and it brings believe and trust to the world to help everyone.


2. How has your integrity or character been tested to the limit? What did you do in response?it makes you respect other , kind, belive, nice help others when they are stuck be respectful for others.


3. Do you think that integrity is a part of your nature? Do your instincts warn you when you are doing something that doesn’t show integrity?integrity tells a lot of people what you are doing if it is right and to do it probably.


Practical Thinking Questions:


1. Do you think the whole world could one day show integrity? If not, why might this be impossible.if we respect each other through life and care for people as we treat ourselves and respect each other it could be changed.


2. Do you think our national and international world leaders display integrity? How and how not? Be specific.yes they do a great job and if they didn't we wouldn't be doing what we are now.


3. Make a flow chart that could help you determine whether a decision is integral or not. (i.e. – is it dishonest, will it hurt someone, do I have to lie, does it go against my gut, etc.)

The magical world

By Toby

Long ago, in an unbelievable world, there lived two siblings

named Hansel and Gretel. They had the meanest parents ever, and the family didn't have enough food for all of them, so the parents took their children to a wizard to be killed.

They walked them through the gleaming forest to an old mean wizard who placed them in a cage. But one day when he opened the cage to feed them, they got out and cut his hand off and ran into the forest. But they wanted more revenge on that wizard because he had killed their uncle.

After they escaped they were were cold and hungry and found some bright red berries they saw on some bushes in the forest. But they were not any berries, these berries gave them superpowers. The superpowers were strength, speed, lightning, invisibility and to be able make fire with their hands.

Hansel said ”let's are going to get revenge on that wizard and our parents “whaw whaw” So they took their energetic bodies to action. Well they started at the parents they struck their house with lightning and the parents and they causing the parents to run in the bushes like scared little ants. And they chased them as a cheetah chases its prey.They arrived at the wizards and they got in the boat and they went across the ocean as the lightning speared into the ocean.The waves were as big as a mountain.As hansel said to Gretel “praise for impact as the biggest wave emerged and struck like thunder hitting stormy clouds.”

And they washed up right in front of the wizards house.And immediately grabbed him they put him in a be-header and they pulled him up with their amazing might and they let it go like the waves le their mighty power go and.It was lights for the wizard. So the whole family was never ever seen again.

2. Ask your parents if they think compassion is important to the way you are raised. Ask your teacher if they think it is important to the way they teach. Ask your classmates if they think it is important to the way they interact with friends. Discuss it with them if you think you need to.My parents think it's really important because you have to be raised with a lot of compassion.My teacher is a very big mix of it he uses the roper compassion for the right time.

Weekly reflections,

Week 6 was really good we went to a dairy farm at Pamu they taught us about how much milk they get and how they milk them and safety.o we started of at safety they they told us all about their safety rules maybe a little bit to much.So after that we went to the milking shed and learnt about the cows good cows good cows can make 40 and over litres per day. Then we went and saw some calves and we learnt about them then we went back to school.We did painting and SDL for the rest of the day.I like week 6 a lot because i learnt a lot and i want to do more trips.
