Maths today

 Today for maths we had to learn about temperature. First we played a game were you had three cups one cold one medium and one hot. First we put our finger in and guessed the heat then we put the thermometer in and saw the actual temperature. After that we did one were we got into groups of five and had to walk around school and see how hot it is. First we did the playground right in front of our class then we did next to our new playground and then we did the climbing frame and the drain right next to the car park finally we did the bushes by the main entrance. Then we all went back inside and everybody said what they got it turns out everybody went to the climbing frame but all got in between five and ten unlike our twenty.

School lunches

This is what I think about the school lunches that we get sent every day. The reason I don't really like the nachos is the meat is chicken and they beans have way to much flavour still the nachos are my favourite. My least favourite is the chicken and that's what we had today we had today I don't like it because the chicken is wet and there is way to many pieces of greens that look like leafs. I also like the beef sandwich  because I like thin cut meat a lot. I don't like the pizza because its tasteless and is very cold which is bad if you've just come in from brake and your cold and wet.

Cold war

 I had some spear time from inquiry so I wrought about the cold war.

  • The Cold War wasn't an armed conflict. ...

  • The Cold War started in 1946 with the United States foreign policy of Soviet containment, and it ended in 1991 with the collapse of the Soviet Union.

  • The Cold War was fought between the United States (NATO alliance) and the Soviet Union (Warsaw Pact).

  • The nuclear code for the us was 00000000

  • The cold war started the internet. It was a military defence messaging centre.

  • The cold war was won by the US and NATO.

  • The US created a plan to detonate a nuclear weapon on the moon to demonstrate the power of the United States Of America.

  • During the peak of the cold war The US flew bombers with nuclear weapons around the world.

  • Both countries used spying advanced techniques with the US having the CIA The Central Intelligence Agency and the USSR had the KGB Committee For State Security.

  • The cold war also started the space race which was a period of time where the US and USSR were racing to see who could get to space first. The USSR put the first satellite into space but the US put a man on the moon first.

  • The movie the day after was about a post war world and it was so scary it made US president Ronald Reagen change his view on the US nuclear policy.

Bridle Path



 Today we walked the bridle path for our inquiry we did it so we could see what it was like for the first Christchurch settlers.

First we got in a bus and drove to Lyttelton We went threw the tunnel and Dylan said "what if the bus was to tall and the roof got cut off" and we called cars cheeseburgers and trucks big macs we got out the tunnel and drove up a hill a bit then we got off the bus and walked up to the Bridle path it was kinda hard because of how steep it was.

Then we got there and we keep walking for a about 50 meters then stopped and waited for the rest of the group to get up. Then we started walking again we stopped at about half way up the hill.

When we got down to the top and ate morning tea but it was so windy that all the packing from lunches flew every where then we took a group photo and started walking down.

We started walking down but the wind was really annoying because you had dirt and gravel blown into your face after a while me and Dylan where talking and there are all these little bits that the water goes threw but Dylan was not paying attention and steeped in the bit and I yelled watch out but it was to late he fell over. We still walked and it was kinda boring from then on.

Then we got back to school and it was break. 

WW2 song

 For inquiry about the first European settlers in New Zealand me and Arthur made a song about WWll. first I wrote down facts about WW2 then we tried to make it on a rap lyric generator and we did but Urmi said it didn't make any scents. So them ME myself had to write most of it but Arthur came back and I showed him. Then we showed Urmi and she said the lines where to long so we had to go back and make it shorter then we showed it to Urmi and she said we could start making. Then we spent most of the day asking everybody if they know the password to the Imac so then we had to ask Elizabeth the password and she sent it to Urmi the last thing I did on that day was the piano. Then we put pre made beats that other people had made into Gargeband and recorded my bit of the rap the first part then we recorded Arthur's part and showed it to Urmi. Then we finally had to get it on Urmi's computer.
