A week in the life of Ocean C. at Ruapotaka

21st Monday November Week 6 

After school: 

 

I actually don't know if your school gives out free milk but all I can say is that Ruapotaka School does. As usual we are doing our little routine of packing up our classroom and getting ourselves ready to go home a what seemed to be box with milk sitting on a white tabletop where our cleaning and stationary supplies stayed. Turns out we got to take the milk home and to our surprise the milk was PAST it's best before date. Our teacher advised that the milk was still good to drink but make sure you drink it when it is nice and cold. We had a nice little warning sign there. I wanted to take 2 maybe to see if my mother would accept whats given. My little sister had gotten 1 afterwards in her class. For all I know though is my mother ain't accepting that again...

22nd Tuesday November Week 6

Middle block:

A ordinary day was planned for us like always with our cyber smart teacher Mr. Goodwin came in but on our google meet call. We call had to join but stay away from each other so our devices won't put words back and forth creating a harsh screeching noise. What Mr. Goodwin had presented was a task from our summer learning journey SLJ. It was a coloring book and most likely our first task of SLJ. We all were coloring our own pictures and some did the same but myself and renei, my friend worked as a team. Sorry I can't show the picture because I didn't download it. We all presented our work and gotten nice compliments. Sure was fun to be back wit Mr. Goodwin and do something most of us liked.

23rd Wednesday November Week 6

Tech:

Hard materials. I'd say that time was my very first time I've been to my tech class in ages. A abundance of foam was sent to us along with a rubber band and a paper with our names on it. We were making masks for our learning and we could make it anything. Our teacher Mr. Grundy was showing us how to make the mask. The weird part was making the paper pattern because your shoving a piece of paper in your face.

Apparently we were only making the paper and turns out i make a mask without the nose piece. People seemed to like it though as it looked very funny. I tried making a funny mask but people said it looked like a batman mask. That makes me happy.

25th Friday November Week 6

Morning baking!!!:

Here's something we don't always get to do only if we have the time out of learning. Lolly cake was what we were baking or others were baking because me and my friend was chilling in our seats. I bet they think we helped with 50% of the recipe 0_0 . I helped with crushing the Malt biscuits and turned them into crumbs and from where I was I saw my friends Renei and Malachi was cutting marshmallow styled lollies into thirds and sixths and once they were done they put them into the crumbs and rolled it up into a log and rolled the log in coconut. I don't remember what type. I actually don't know what they did for the apple cake but it was good :D.

Same day: Water slide

Me and Sunny was waiting in the staff room for our teacher Mr. N. Our neighbor room 1 and our class went to the water slide. Unfortunately we and Sunny didn't want to go. When Mr. N came in he offered us cards. A card game of Monopoly DEAL and basic cards. We chose to play DEAL. It was complicated indeed as we sat in the grass wondering how to play. We had to get help from Mr. N then we got the basics down then we could start playing. We got a small group of people of 1 watching us and it was room 1's teaching Mrs. Cardoza! It feels nice to have a person watching and nice to see Sunny win. He was hesitant about the match but he won in the end. He even called it! We went back got the lolly cake and the apple cake and went home.

End credits is don't read the whole thing but i suggest reading Morning baking and when we was coloring with Mr. Goodwin. I hope you are having a wonderful day reader and I hope you enjoyed :D.

EdWorlde: About me

Hello again. I am posting another wordle but this time it is about me. I did something different in my other wordle. If you don't know what a wordle is, please go look at my previous blog post. If you do then you wont need a description about what is a wordle. 

This task was suppose to describe a real-life person and not a made up character. I didn't get in trouble doing my last post - my teacher was still ok with my work. 

I like wordles because you can go anywhere with it but this is only positives about me. 

I like this because it really describes me but these is the positives, just saying. 

Please go check out my classmates' and class blog too. My classmates blogs are linked in our class blog. Their wordles will also be there. I hope you enjoyed this post. Scroll down to see my other wordle.

Room 7 Class Blog

EdWordle

Today for reading I created a wordle. If you ask what this is, it a turns a story into mixed up words. I created one about Bobby (he is not real and is not a real person but a lot of people are aimed Bobby). He had a rough day and this wordle is describing what is happening. The story will be at the bottom of the wordle.

Bobby glances out of his window turning more pale by the second. He watches as rubbish glides across the wet road and past the empty paths. Bobby turns towards his bed and wraps himself in his blanket. He looks depressed after what has happened today in his life. He's petrified and scared but determined to make it through the night. He might be able to slumber through the bright sunny day. His eyes start to close inch by inch, Bobby tries to stay up longer until his eyes close shut and he starts to sleep. He awakens in the morning ready to start the day.

I like this task but I described the surroundings more than our friend Bobby here and I don't know if you were suppose to do a real person or make one up. I might have to do this again but I will post two blogs about this if I have to. 

I hope you liked this blogpost. Make sure to go check out my classmates blogs and our class blogs links down below.

Is Television Educational?

                                                                  This is a modern T.V and 

                                                                    Not like the olden day

                                                                              Television          
                                

This is my work from last week and I would like to share some of my awnsers to these 8 questions. I really enjoyed this and there were more pro's than cons to this text ( but I am only showing the questions but there will be some texts found). I like this text because this tells a lot about television and if it is helpful or not.This text says if it will educational because of documantaries about animals and how much kids can learn abour the world  or the kid shows that teach kids about different subjects.

Text: Television Is Educational 

Q1: What is the topic of this text?

The topic of this text is that Television Is Educational.

Q2: Is the author against this topic or for? How do you know?

The author is for this topic because he is talking about how kids could get a range of educational opportunities and can learn different varieties of skill learnt at school from television.

Q3: What reasons does the author use to support their opinion?

They say that they can learn different varieties of skills learnt at school from television and that television lets children learn about the world around them if you don’t have enough to travel from country to country or you just can’t go outside.

Q4: Who could the author be writing to?

He would be writing to people's parents saying let your children watch television for educational purposes only.

Q5: What emotive language or phrases do you use to persuade the reader?

They use I most certainly feel, It is without a doubt, Develop variety of skills, Educational benefits, Excellent range of quality.

Q6: What connective words or phrases has the author used to sequence the text?

Secondly, Firstly, In addition to this, Therefore, To sum up.

Q7: List two reasons that support the author’s argument that television allows children to learn about the world around them.

Children can learn about the world around them because of documentaries. For example there could be one of the largest sea mammals or the most dangerous land creature in the world.And also only some kids are fortunate enough to be able to travel around the world but some are stuck in there homes.So that is where the television comes in.Teachers can show this in their classroom, showing the kids animals without actually being there!

Q8: Do you think Television is educational? Why or why not?

There are some ups and downs when it comes to television because you could go on different shows then kid shows.You could watch movies on televisions and get distracted because of how entertaining it is.Television is a good way to watch many shows without it being good for the human brain.I would say let your parents pick the show for you.

Television is educational though having many shows for kids.A majority of them has school subjects.This means that television is pretty much your digital school.Some is based on math, some on reading so on and so on.I would recommend you watch some animal documentaries because you learn about them as the article said.

I liked how this has turned out. I am pretty proud.

Awesome sportsmanship

 

Why soccer is one of the best sports games

 

Who's there?

• Where is this? Is it underground or above ground? Has it always been this way?:The beast is in front of me with some sort of mask.The underworld wouldn’t have a big giant creature to attack us!This has always been this way since we came here.He is hunting going to kill us….

• Describe the monster. Consider its size, shape, the light in its face and how it moves. How does it communicate? What is it.The monster is humongous in size so he will crush us if seen.He has spikes coming from his back the shape of a square cone.His mask lets out an eternal red hot fire and the stomps set us flying so we can’t hurt it with water nor nothing.

• Where did the monster come from? Does it live here?Well the monster is from the underworld full of demons and death and it does live here as he is a part of the underworld.

• Did the people in front of the monster come here looking for it?We were given a quest to slay the beast so I can become king and my partner becomes queen.We only had iron swords so we were dead…..

• Why do they have swords? Are they ordinary swords?Yes we had swords but then as we got close to the beast the swords turned to water so we had a big chance to still die but get a hit on him at the same time.

• What do you think could happen next? What is the most likely choice?Well we slayed the beast luckily but i thought we would be slayed by whips but we were ok.Phew.

 

 

The story……….We were given a quest to slay a big beast and our reward was to rule the kingdom so we had set out to the underworld?This was strange as it felt like a contract to death you know?Anyway we set out to the underworld through a portal then we came to a cave where my partner was.WE had iron swords and armor to be safe.We went through gusting wind and i don’t know why.Why?We found a beast with whips so we freaked out and we hid.The beast walked up and attacked.We grabbed out water swords?And one shotted the beast?So after we just ruled the kingdom?OK!

Part Of My Book:Xmas.

                     Xmas                                                The beginning of Christmas and my whole family is coming to my house.I think family time sucks cause it’s just talk talk talk with no stop.Well cause the parents.I am Amy,10 years old (maybe that’s why family time is boring) and I love cats.Not till my pesky brother came in.Well no going back.I’ve been thinking *ring*....Nevermind.So my family is finally here to celebrate and talk *sigh*but this is going to be fun hitting my brother in secret.aunt Rose came and uncle Toby.He’s Great.My three cousins in their family (they’re triplets) and they are Eva,Sammy and Loopy (i don't know why) but they are a pain.They all 6 and that is great cause if they were older than me than i’ll be getting smack but instead i can smack them.Well Time to go eat,but first i must hit my brother in secret and all my cousins.”Come to my room sibys!’’while they are coming i’ll just read then i’ll inhale my evil plan on them and probably get in trouble for doing it because one of them is going to tell.Hope not.Oh hey *smack* *smack* *smack* *smack*.Yes!I have done it.I have unleashed the darkness inside me and…. I don’t no smack some peasants?Yes peasants and they were no match for me.I lord Amy will rule the world and conquer the whole entire galaxy but first see you at the table.(First thing i ask myself is is there any Christmas pudding?)(Well I don't know but there is a high chance.)I am at the table all quiet like they are waiting.Do I do something because they are staring at me.Did they tell?Wait, that was day-dreaming so i am ok.They already started and they have the pudding.Dessert first then normal.That’s my rule in this house.Well no one listens to it because that is my rule no one else and i don’t tell anyone to listen to me cause that is my rule and i keep my rule and i always listen to it cause it is mine.10 minutes later of chattering about the rule i have.And it will always it will be mine.Now let get some pudding yay.(All munching away at all the roast,pudding and the veggies).It has been a long day and i will need to finish my dinner early so i will just go to bed.Good night.It’s the next day and I already feel like I am dieing for some reason?I am going to go to the kitchen to have breakfast but first i have to wake up my brother.(off in the distance can be heard smacking noises).Sorry for the noises but it is still the 30th and my aunty has been found on the kitchen floor dead.We have called the police and we all were crying.*crying* and that seems to still be going.Strange,but if it is still the 30th then is it still christmas?Can’t be.Can’t stand the smell of a dead body.Yuck!Well i will have to suffer from the smell cause i have no other choice.What should i have?What is on the menu?Maybe I will have toast,scrambled eggs and a nice hot cocoa.Have they noticed that it is still christmas.Maybe i will go tell my dad.(Everyone is asleep after what happened except my dad).So where is he.(Walks to his room to find something i am satisfied with).(His death).Ahhhhhhhh.*crying*.I just found my dad on the ceiling dead with a knife in his chest.”what’s wrong sweety?”said my mother then it did not go well.I told her what i saw and she sees it too.Everyone gathered around to try find the murderer and take them to jail.We insisted that is was uncle Toby and that he killed aunt Rose and my dad.I don’t know why he would do that but we called the police and Toby was long gone.Like aunt and dad.We decided to go with mum to the mall to keep safe.Even i am scared.Nothing goes so well.Maybe it is karma?Na.”Can i get a teddy to keep me safe?””No!””Kgs”get it kgs hahahaha.well see you at home even through i can’t see you.Wait who am i talking to?The next day.Well near.It is night and looks like my mother is dead in her room.No wonder they call this Xmas.The time of death!We are the only survivors and the police arrive in a day to pick us up.Also they said that Toby is dead as well.If we all survive then we live but that is a low chance.They are hiding is the light thinking that it is a monster.Imagination.Well i do feel like we are going to end up like our parents.But let's all sleep in a bundle.Maybe that’s how we can survive.Maybe that’s how they died.Well next day is coming and hopefully i do not go.There next day of the survival.I feel dizzy and so do they.We woke up in a van that seems to be a police van.Well luckily we had lived and if i was dead then i don’t know if i wake up in heaven or just see black.That is why i do not want to die.Chance of darkness is 50% and 50% to wake up in heaven.This is great.I get to live another day with my brother and my cousins.And that is the story of me having a bad christmas with my family.It was a bloody night or 3 bloody nights.

Auckland zoo habitats

This is the animal habitat slide show i did about the animals.We had to do the animals at the zoo and we could only pick 3 animals for it.My best habitat is the elephant and the meerkat cause they have what they need to survive.

The rat that was hungry

Once there was a rat that was hungry and really hungry.The neighbors did not like rats so they put a mouse trap and a piece of cheese on top carefully so it wont go off.The rat got  the smell of the cheese and went to the it.He found that there was a cheese on a mouse trap.Surely they don’t think he’s a mouse so he came up with a plan.He would grab a piece of rope and tie it on a table and go down to grab the cheese and that’s what he did,but then from out of nowhere the neighbors came in through the door.The rat retreated and went behind the table leg.They did not see him so they went back out.He had to climb back up and try again.This time they did not come in and so he grabbed the cheese and tryed to go up.The cheese was too heavy so he had to swing and get it on the floor.It was successful.But when he took a bite they came back in.They were spieing all this time.Luckily the rat had escaped.

Sleeping with one,
Every day and night.

Losing confidence,

Pieces together,
Elven the antelope.
