swimming sports.

Last week on the Friday 15th, I took part of swimming sports. In the morning room 9 had to get changed into our togs. We were really excited that we were going to go in the pool. After that Mr Ramkolowan told room 9 to be quiet so he can put us in our house. I was in Wairua. Next we had to walk outside and sit in our house. Then we walked to the pool and sat under our gazebo. l waited until the bell rang. By then I knew that l was already in the finals. I was so happy.

How to make toys.

How toys work.

This toy is a winding toy. This insect is from a factory. It has a spring inside the it so that the toy can move. It has wide holes in it’s body so it would make space for the legs to travel.

How to make cogs.

Yesterday on the 25th of March, room 9 was making cogs out of cardboard.We first cut out a circle. Next we had to draw a smaller circle inside the cardboard. Then we had to use the ruler to measure the tooth part of the cog. After that we had to make a cut in the cardboard following a pattern. Then we had to stick our own pencils in the middle of the cog so it would overlap with the other cog. At the end we took a picture of us with our cog.

This is me

Kia ora my name is Asiana and I am 10 yrs old.  I was born in a awesome hospital named Middlemore in Auckland. I live in Glen Innes, Auckland. I am of Maori and Niuean cultures. I have 3 brothers, 1 sister and my parents. I am the second to last child in my family.

The things that I like are chocolate, purple and black colours, butter chicken, running, fruit, puppies, studying, and being with my friends. My friends are Melissa, Maia, Tupou , Tainah , Tupou Rose, Siua , and Angelina. I like chocolate because it is delicious. I like studying because I like to learn about the world. I also like fruit because it keeps me healthy and the fruit are tasty. I like butter chicken because  it is a delicious curry.

I am not very good at sports, swimming, athletics, softball and maths. I don't like sports because it is too hard. Maths is hard because I find the strategies impossible to learn. However, I am trying very hard to master this.

Seagulls in our school

One morning mother bird said to her children “ ok now children, i’m going to find some dinner for  the family.”
So mother bird flew high up in the air, through the cold wind. Then mother bird went over the water and saw some fresh fish. she picked it up and took the fish to the green grass. Meanwhile there was a big mean bird that wanted to steel mother birds food. mother bird said “ Oh please big mighty bird please don’t take my food. I want to give it to my family.” But the big mighty bird never listened. So mother bird pulled and pulled but the big bird was too strong. Then mother bird had a plan .she waited until the big bird got tired. next the bird let the fish go and flew away. then the mother bird go home safely.
