Designs Of A Waterproof House

Hi bloggers, my name is Nicholas and I have got another thing to show you.  In reading we had to design a waterproof house. It was part of our reading activity (the main focus was summarising and synthesising). The design had to have some features, such as it had to be high and also we had to have some features from a book that we read called 'Building for the Future'. Let me show you my work.  

I really enjoyed this task and hope we can do more things like this in the future. If you liked my work please comment and also give me feedback. Bye! 

Tiritiri Matangi

Hi guys so we went to Tiritiri Matangi. If you don't know what Tiritiri Matangi is it's a wildlife sanctuary with lots of endangered animals . Tiritiri Matangi  lies in the Hauraki Gulf of New Zealand, 3.4 km east of the Whangaparaoa Peninsula in the North Island and 30 km north east of Auckland.
It was a really cool experience and I really enjoyed it. We went there because it was part of inquiry. Our inquiry topic was endangered animals and how can we try to save them? My highlight would be when we saw a black robin those are really rare and also we saw a rare duck I forgot the name. If you would like to visit the site here it is http://www.tiritirimatangi.org.nz/
and also here are some photos.

  

Des Hunt Visits Waikowhai Primary

Hello my fellow bloggers today des hunt visited our school if you don't know about him here is A little paragraph about him. Des hunt is A well respected educationalist and teacher and he has written A series of successful environmental adventures for 9-12 year olds. He lives in Whitianga, NZ and taught at the Mercury Bay Area School. Here is what he showed us.

1. Saw some of his books that are not printing.
2. He showed us the way A story goes.
3. We could buy some books if we wanted to.
4. He told us how he became an author.
5. He is good at chemistry.  

My favorite part of the presentation was when the balloon exploding and it was my favorite part because it was loud. I think it was important because the eels never stopped growing and I think he was trying to make us know how the eel never stopped growing.  

Now that I have seen this presentation I will read more des hunt books and try to be more creative like him.

Wheels Day

Hi Blogging world. This Monday, we had a Monday fun day there was a water slide, a swimming pool and we also could bring our scooter, bike, skateboard and roller skates. The water slide was really big and long so that meant we could go really fast.  The pool was very warm so that meant we could relax while it was warm.
