Hey everyone today I made three different kinds of Paper Planes. The blue one is an ordinary normal Paper Plane. The purple one is a Ring Glider and the red one is a Hoop Glider. Here is a video of me testing them out to see how far they got.

Taking Flight Bird Of The Year! Tui
These are some facts about Tui.
Tui are very beautiful. They have blue, green and bronze feathers that glimmer in the sunlight. They also have cute white tuffs just under their beck.
Tui are normally found in forests and native reserves throughout the three main islands of New Zealand.
They occasionally eat insects but they mostly eat nectar from plants and flowers such as Kowhai, Flax and Pohutukawa.
Tui can imitate sounds that things make like cell phones ringing and cars.
There are around 2-3 albino Tui around New Zealand.

The Air Up There Flying Fungi
Question: We tested the air in your classroom and found 7 different kinds of mould. Eek! The cleaner says that it takes 5 days for each mould to be eradicated (removed). If the school had to remove each mould one at a time, how long would it take to remove all the mould from the classroom?
So if it takes 5 days for one type of fungi to be removed all we need to do is 7 X 5 which equals 35 so the answer must be 1 month and 4 days if it were in a month with 31 days or it could be 1 month and 5 days if it were in a month with 30 days, or it could be 1 month and 7 days if it were in a month with 28 days.
So that's how I worked out the answer.
The Air Up There Carbon Sinks Don't Stink
These are all the things that I would put in my imaginary carbon sink.
Firstly I would put in Tomatoes. I hate Tomatoes because they have a super sweet taste.
Secondly I would put in Capsicum. I hate Capsicum because they have this weird tangy taste that stays there forever.
Thirdly I would put Celery. I hate Celery because it tastes weird and I just don't like it.
Fourthly I would put Brussel Sprouts. I have never tried them before. But I've herd from people that it tastes so strong.
Fifthly I would put Rice Pudding. I don't like rice pudding because it sticks to your mouth and it is gluggy.
The Air Up There Bee Informed
Here is an activity were I had to fill in the blanks. The words that are highlighted are the ones I filled in.
The word 'bumblebee' is a compound word (bumble + bee). The word 'bumble' means to hum, buzz, or drone.
Bumblebees can fly very quickly. They can reach ground speeds of 54 kilometres per hour (km/h).
Bumblebees are very strong! They carry up to 90% percent of their body weight in food with them to avoid starvation.
Bumblebees can do more work and carry more pollen than other bees, including honeybees. In fact, they can do up to 50 times as much work as a normal honeybee.
The number of bumblebees is declining in New Zealand due to a number of factors, including the removal of wildflowers and flowering trees, habitat loss, and extensive use of pesticides.

A Heated Debate You are my Sunshine
People are getting skin cancer all over the world but especially in New Zealand. Skin Cancer is where you spend too much time in the sun and your skin gets burnt badly and you get cancer.
These are five things to protect you from skin cancer.
1. You could put on long clothing.
2. You should bring an umbrella our find a tree to shade you.
3. Try putting on SPF 50 sunscreen. But if your allergic I'm sorry.
4. Try wearing a hat with a wide brim that will cover most of your head or neck.
5. Try putting on a pair of sunglasses that might solve the problem.
A Heated Debate Togs or Trackies
I encourage my friends and family from overseas to visit NZ in mid or late spring. The weather will be warm and sunny and the tourist attractions will be less busy than in the middle of summer!
Here are three tourist attractions that I recommend.
1. Te Papa Wellington because you can explore the wonders of New Zealand there is a little shop nearby so you can get your souvenir.
2. The Luge in Rotorua is a great place for the family, you can do races on the go-karts, grab some jelly beans and look at the awesome view! Plus there is a great cafe up the top.
3. Whale watching in Kaikoura is the best thing to do. You can see whales, dolphins, seals and all types of sea creatures.

My Creature
This is a drawing of an Alphyn. An Alphyn is part wolf part dragon. Alphyns live in caves and forests. An Alphyn flies around most of the time but they can also walk. Alphyns make sounds like a dragons for example roaring and they also howl like wolves. Alphyns have patterns on their wings that look like stars. An Alphyn has different colours like black, purple and blue.

Maths reflection
This term for my maths I did stage 8 in lockdown. It took me forever. I got around 80% every time. Then my mum taught me about HCF(Highest common factors) and LCM(Lowest common multiples). I got HCF straight away but LCM didn’t quite slip into my head. After I got taught again about LCM it slipped into my head that time. I was also given an account for IXL. A website that is so amazing. It has stuff like algorithms, factors, fractions, addition and subtraction, multiplication and division and it has heaps more. When we got back to school we did beat the clock. A sheet that has a timetable on it and you have to do it in under 3 mins. Me and my friend Wendy got given all the time tables. We completed it pretty quickly. I love doing maths. It is my favourite subject in school. I really enjoyed doing maths this term.
Music reflection
Today we did Music at 9:05 this morning. While we were making a tune with the violin it was so high pitched. My ears hurt a lot. We played a pizzicato. We had to play one string and we then put our forefinger on the top of the neck and it made a new sound. We did that for all the strings. Then we did all that with the bow. I like playing the violin because you get to have fun. The things that I don’t like about violin is that your arms get sore and it is so loud .

Stranded Part 2
“I’m going to find you Carys!” shouted Wendy at the top of her lungs. She suddenly jumped in the water. Then she dived down down down into the depths of the Arctic ocean. “Nope, you are not dying out here!” said Brooke as she and Ruby dragged Wendy back in the boat. “Why! She is probably already dead by now.” said Wendy sadly. “Yeah. We sadly agree.” said everyone else. Suddenly Wendy started crying very loudly. After a few minutes a new ship came into view. As it came closer we saw the name. It was the Symphony of the Seas. The biggest cruise ship in the world. They had come to rescue the survivors. Carys was still floating in a current. She was drifting far far away. She was on a current that wasn’t going to end for miles and kilometres. The current was going to end at the island called Tuulafoa’i island. Tuulafoa’i means deserted. Back on the main land. The friends of Carys were taken to hospital to see if they had any injuries. They obviously didn’t have any injuries. Carys’ family were devastated. They knew they had to bring at least one adult with them. They still had no clue of were Carys was. No clue at all.

Stranded Part 1
BOOM! “What was that!” Wendy screamed. Suddenly the lights flickered on and off over and over again until they just it was pitch black. I was sailing on the ship Blue Moon. It was a cruise ship. It was carrying 3,289 guests. Most of my friends were on this ship because our parents bought us all ship tickets to go on holiday by ourselves. Suddenly the ship lurched. Then the microphone said “Everybody get onto the top deck immediately. Put on your life jackets and bring your special valuables if possible. WARNING! WARNING! Get to the top deck immediately!” It repeated that over and over again. “Come on everyone lets get going!” I said. Everyone in my cabin listened. “I’m scared.” said Otoha. “Me too” said everyone else. “Ok up we go.” I said. We tried the elevator but like all the other electronics it wasn’t working. So we had to use the stairs. It took us a while but soon we got there. There was heaps of people all around me. I suddenly got separated from my friends. They had gotten onto the first life boat because they were children. Then as I was rushing towards the boat shouting “Wait! Help me!” But it was to late. It was dropped in the water. As I started crying I got pushed into the icy water. I suddenly fell unconscious but luckily I had my life jacket on otherwise I would’ve drowned. Back on the boat the others didn’t even notice I was gone. Surprisingly Otoha said “Where’s Carys?” Then they all got worried. They thought weird things like Was she eaten by a shark or did she drown? They had no idea.

Year 6 camp
Last week, the Yr 6's from my school went to El Rancho for camp. I will be showing you the first day I went to El Rancho. I hope you'll like it.
Today we got ready to go to Year 6 camp. All the Yr 6s went to the hall after the bell went. We got sorted out into groups and we went to the adults cars after we got sorted out. I went in my Mums car with two of my friends.
When we got to El Rancho we sat on the grass and we got sorted into our activity groups. My friends from my class were all in a different group. After I went through the sadness we got sorted into our cabin groups. I was with my friends from my class. They were Wendy, Brooke, Tiarna and Me.
We had time to sort out our stuff.
After that we went to lunch. Lunch was Mac and Cheese. It was scrumdiddlyumptious.
After breakfast we were going to do our first activity. . . Team Initiatives! We had to work as a team to finish tasks. The first task we had to do was we had to balance on a beam and we had to make it even on each side. We had to stand on a log and make line up from tallest to shortest without touching the floor. We did all of the other tasks like that.
We went to archery next. I persevered till I hit one of the targets. My team won all of the rounds.
We got lots of free time afterwards.
We had dinner next. We had some amazing Nachos.
We got nice and cosy in our pyjamas and we watched a movie called Matilda.
After the movie we went to bed.

Heading back to school
I feel happy about going back to school from lockdown. In lockdown at home the things that was the same as school was that we still did heaps of learning. We also still met up everyday. We also had Whaea Annie there for us when we needed her most. The things that are different from normal school is that you couldn’t have face to face interactions. It was also at home obviously. The things that I missed about school is I couldn’t play with my friends and I couldn’t see Whaea Annie in person. I couldn’t play tag with my friends. I couldn’t do face to face interactions. Lastly I couldn’t play on the playground with my friends. The things that have changed because of Covid at school is that you have to have your own drink bottle because you couldn’t use the water fountain. Sadly the choir people for Artsplash can’t do it because they cancelled it. The bright side of being at home and doing work is that I could do as much maths as I liked. I also liked doing heaps of blogging (I blogged everyday). I liked doing Kahoots, Quizzes, Jokes and Riddles with my class. Lastly I liked emailing my friends especially the ones that have moved away from this school. My favourite thing in lockdown at home (other than school work) is that I loved playing with my sister. An example of this is that we played on the trampoline.

The Artist Part 2
“What should we do?” Brooke asked. “Maybe we should make a drill and drill under ground and go under neath them and use the bombs.” suggested Wendy. “Yes and no because we also need to destroy their base.” I said. “So we must lure them to their base again and then we blow it up.” said Brooke. “Wow Brooke, that is a really good idea.” Wendy exclaimed. “Ok here is the drill.” I said after a while. “Hop in.”
“Look out!” shouted Wendy as a bomb flew past us. “We must be close.” I said. “Speed up already.” said Brooke. “We need to get there and place all the bombs down before they come and then we’ll drill back to the surface and head for home again.” “Wow you have been on to it more than us Brooke.” I said. “Yeah.” said Wendy. “Stop!” shouted Brooke. “We’re here.”
“Ok now we are done.” I said. “Let’s head back to the surface and wait till they are down by the base.” said Wendy. “Then it goes KABOOM!” said Brooke. “Yes, KABOOM!” said Wendy.
“Wait for it, wait for it.” “NOW!” I shouted. KABOOM! “Now their definitely dead.” I exclaimed. “Ok let’s head home.” said Wendy.
“Cough Cough.” coughed Ravana the leader of the bad guys. “I’ll get you for this Moon.”

Hi my name is Moon. Everyone teases me about my name. Well they’ll be sorry when they find out about my power. I’ve had the power that I can draw a picture and it will become real or I will turn into it. Isn’t it amazing right. I’ve had it since I was a baby. Well actually I was born with that power.
“Moony Woony!” laughed everyone in the playground. I felt so embarrassed. Then I went and ran to the bathroom. I started crying. Then I herd the door open. “GO AWAY!” I shouted. “It’s ok Moon, it’s just us Wendy and Brooke.” said Wendy softly. “Ok I’m in the last toilet.” I said sadly. “Ok we’re coming in.” said Brooke. “Have you guys herd about the story that three friends will save the world from evil doers.” I said excitingly. “Yeah.” said Wendy and Brooke at the same time. “Well I think that's true.” “You do?” said Wendy surprised. “In the story did you hear that one of the friends had a power.” I said mysteriously. “Yes obviously.” said Brooke. “Well I have that power.” I said sternly. “Oh my gosh we are the three friends from the story!” screamed Wendy. “Yep that’s true.” I said.
The next day was a weekend. Wendy and Brooke met up at my house. We talked about how we will stop the bad guys. We figured out that we will need to get to the Sahara dessert because I had already figured out that their base is in the Sahara. “How about we use a helicopter.” suggested Wendy. “Nah they would see us coming.” I said. “How about a car.” asked Brooke. “Excuse me we live all the way in New Zealand on the other side of the world.” I said to Brooke. “Oh.” said Brooke felling stupid. “Wait we could combine those two ideas together to get a caricopter.” I said. “It is a car that has a button that when you press the button it will make a propeller come out of the top.” “Wow that is a great idea Moon.” said Wendy. “When we get there, we will go under ground and set bombs under their base. Then we leave and live happy lives without any evil stuff happening.” I said. “Well that is the best plan ever.” said Wendy. “Ok hop into the caricopter.” I said.
“Aaaaahhhhhh. We’re finally here. But it is really hot.” I said. “Obviously it’s hot we’re in the dessert!” shouted Wendy. “Guys. . . . . . . . . . . . . there’s some big black cars coming towards us.” whispered Brooke. “Oh no.” I said. “It’s the bad guys.”

My metaphor story
Starter
The giant fan whirred furiously. He pulled on the flying jacket, placed the goggles onto his head, and gripped the cardboard box for dear life. This was to be another of his incredible adventures, and he couldn’t wait to find out where it would take him…
“Yeah this is amazing.” shouted Luca. “I wonder where I’m going?” “Let’s get out of here.” In another world. “I wonder where I am.” wondered Luca. “Wait what’s that down there.” “IT’S A DRAGON!!!” “I’ve always wanted to keep a dragon.” “I’ll go see what type it is.” Then when he got closer the dragon let out a Roar and that scared Luca off. “Well I won’t get that type of dragon.” Then rain started pouring down hard on his head. “The rain are stones.” shouted Luca. “I’ll go find a cave.” After searching and searching for a nice warm cave. “Finally I found one.” He walked in and made himself comfy. Then he heard a grunt. It was a baby dragon, and it was a Galaxy dragon. It was so cute. Then he walked up to the little dragon and scratched behind her ear. She liked Luca very much. Then they went home and we were two peas in a pod. He named her Moon. Then she was an adult and she had cute babies. They were a big happy family.

My Poetry Writing
My Poetry
I don’t wanna go to school Mum
I could stay at home with you
We could go to the park
What other things can we do?
I will be quiet like a post
Are we going to the pool
No wait we’re not doing that
Oh no we’re going to school!

They had always been together, for as long as he could remember. They had always been the best of friends. She had taught him everything he knew, relentlessly preparing him for life in the outside world..
This was the moment they had both been waiting for...
I felt a deep sorrow in my heart. I’ve never wanted to leave Lyla alone in the city. We were already a few days from the city. I feel like I’m as pale as death right now. I think she is taking me back to my tower or a special place in the grasslands. “Okay Jasper.” said Lyla. “We only have a few more days left.” “We should rest now it is really late.” “Yes I’m really tired of walking. I need rest.” “Good night Jasper.” “Good night Lyla.” . . . . . . . “Well good morning Lyla.” I licked her face to wake her up from her deep sleep. Then we kept on walking and walking for ages and it felt like we were walking for a month of Sundays. When we arrived to the grasslands, I saw a tower of giraffes. It must be my tower! I started running toward them like I was a bee attracted to a flower. Then I saw one giraffe stand out from the rest, it was my mother! She started running towards me too like we were magnets. We hugged each other so tightly we nearly lost our breath. Then I turned around and saw Lyla crying uncontrollably. She was about to turn around and leave when I ran towards her. We hugged and hugged for as long as a lifetime. “I love you Jasper.” said Lyla in a happy-sad voice. “You know that right?” Yes Lyla I know that and I will never ever forget that. “Goodbye Jasper.” said Lyla. Goodbye Lyla. Then she turned around and started walking towards the city. After a millennium of Sundays I still remember Lyla and her hair as black as coal. Her eyes as beautiful as the ocean, her smile like a ray of sunshine. I will never forget those vivid things about Lyla. Then one day I asked my Mum if I could go on an adventure she said yes. I was as happy as a child on Christmas day. I might see Lyla again!

My Winter Holiday
DLO My holiday
Me and my family went to Kennedy park in Napier for three days. We stayed in cabin 31. We were 10 steps away from the heated pool. There was also a huge jumping pillow. We made a couple of friends. Then just before we left we went into the arcade and I played a racing game with my sister. “Otaki has cool stuff like Kennedy park, but Kennedy park is better. I really enjoyed this holiday!”

Friday 16.04.21
Today we finished school at 2 pm. My friend Misteri is staying after school with me, so then I have someone to play with. We mostly played on the playground but after a while we played with FunZone. After my Mum finished work, we went home to pack so me and my family could go to my Nan and Pops house in Wellington. My Dad didn't finish work till 5 pm so we had a lot of time to pack! Once my Dad got home we got our stuff in the car, and hopped in. It wasn't a long trip, it only took an hour. When we got into Wellington we went and got fish 'n' chips for dinner. When we were calling something dramatic happened - they were going to take 20 minutes to make our dinner! We got to the fish 'n' chip place after a few minutes. We knew it was going to take ages so I pulled my book out and started to read. My Mum went in to wait and then surprisingly my Mum came straight back out. The whole family commented on how quick it was. Then we drove up to Nan and Pop's, I was so tired. When we were opening the pack we only found seven fish when there was supposed to be eight. Then all of a sudden we found a 2 inch long fish and my Mum said "This surely can't be the fish." We searched the whole pack for the eighth big fish but we had no luck. So the 2 inch long fish was the eighth fish. :( The dinner was the best fish 'n' chips in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then we talked for a while, then me and my sister had to go to bed.
