We have now begun to make our actual jewellery to sell on Market Day. We have made advertisements to get people to come to our stall (check some of these out on the next page - Galaxy's Learning on Seesaw). In maths we worked out how much our piece of jewellery will cost. We had a shopping list and we checked it and chose only the materials we needed for our piece of jewellery. We then added all of the prices together. The most challenging part was working out how much string or elastic we needed. This was the hardest part because we had to make sure it would fit the audience we are selling to and we had to measure how much we needed because Mel, Kerri , Bridget and Ebony were only selling it in 10cm long - and this is not long enough for a necklace or bracelet, even for a child! We hope to see you at our stall on Market Day!<br />

WALT: Investigate like a scientist</h3>
<div>
<h4>
Kerri asked us "can we guess the colour of the jellybeans when our eyes were closed?"</h4>
<div>
<u>As scientists we made a prediction... </u></div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Most of us (16 people) think it will be easy to tell the colour and flavour with our eyes closed. </li>
<li>Some of us (6 people) think we will not be able to tell the colour and flavour with our eyes closed.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
<u>As scientists we carried out our experiment...</u></div>
<div>
We got into groups of 3.<br />
1 person had the blindfold on (so they couldn't see the colour), 1 person recorded the results and the other person put the jellybean into the blindfolded persons hand. Luckily we all got a turn at each job!</div>

<u>As scientists we have a conclusion...</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
We can tell some flavours but not all. It is easy to tell the black jellybeans. We were also pretty good at picking the blue and white ones too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Our biggest learning was about collecting honest and reliable data (information). It doesn't matter if our prediction is wrong, what matters is that we learned something. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Peeking is cheating and means we cannot trust all the information. Perhaps we could try again!</div>

Last week it was Roald Dahl's 100th birthday celebration. We all entered the drawing competition. You can see our fantastic artworks up in the library. Ryder won a prize and Jorja and Noah got a highly commended prize. Wow - three people from Galaxy! </div>

<br>
We were curious to find out more.<br>
<br>
First we started finding out about market days. We found out that people say nice things about what was getting sold. There were really great displays so people can see everything.<br>
<br>
Secondly we made a big mess discovering different materials that could make jewellery. After this we drew some jewellery.<br>
<br>
Next we used lots of different types of materials to make jewellery and found out which materials would be the best to use for us. <br>
<br>
Then we got a design brief and made our very first designs. We have to choose one of them to make for market day.<br>
<br>
After the holidays we are going to be making a practice one which we call a prototype. We also need to make posters to advertise our product.<br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-rZVd9Nsj5q4/V-RfOFIKQLI/AAAAAAAAAbk/2hIIgj69aL0/s640/blogger-image--167782643.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-rZVd9Nsj5q4/V-RfOFIKQLI/AAAAAAAAAbk/2hIIgj69aL0/s640/blogger-image--167782643.jpg"></a></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-qXqakAuyjeM/V-RfM3-roBI/AAAAAAAAAbg/qmZfpLtB-MY/s640/blogger-image--2140587216.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-qXqakAuyjeM/V-RfM3-roBI/AAAAAAAAAbg/qmZfpLtB-MY/s640/blogger-image--2140587216.jpg"></a></div><br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Apc9Ko23HWY/V-RfPG3Yw7I/AAAAAAAAAbs/5psrCfQl8UA/s640/blogger-image-1407793546.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Apc9Ko23HWY/V-RfPG3Yw7I/AAAAAAAAAbs/5psrCfQl8UA/s640/blogger-image-1407793546.jpg"></a></div>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5991738245169751493.post-56545928272597421972016-09-05T15:56:00.001-07:002016-09-05T15:57:19.384-07:00Tui Having Brunch.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Today, just now we saw a tui in the kowhai tree right outside our classroom window. The kowhai tree has a lot of blossoms now - bright yellow flowers. The Tui was probably in the kowhai tree because it is spring and they like sucking the flowers. They suck the flowers to steal the nectar from inside the flowers. They suck it up their beak like a straw. Leila wonders do Tui eat anything else? We are going to keep an eye on the kowhai tree and try and take a photo of the tui - it flies away very fast each time we try! 6.9.16 10:50.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5991738245169751493.post-26438890392306270842016-09-05T14:13:00.003-07:002016-09-05T14:17:09.902-07:00Wednesday Star of the Week - 'Guess in the Bag'<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Ella brought along a snow globe/glitter globe with a castle inside it. She put this in the kete for us to guess what her special thing was. We have had many different special things this year like; trophy, rattle snake, aeroplane, ornaments from China, jewellery box, bey blade, soft toys, a tiara, pumice, spy gadget/compass, snake puzzle, sticker of the Eiffle Tower, a silver hippo, toys and we have some more to come before the end of the term. Yesterday the castle reminded Alec of Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, Germany which many Disney castles are modelled off. We talked about what would be good about living in this castle and what would not be good about living in this castle.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5991738245169751493.post-62999004480630241452016-08-21T21:46:00.000-07:002016-08-21T21:46:11.314-07:00Kiwi Kids news<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is our first shared writing for Term 3. Each day we will add some more as we finish editing and publishing it.<br />
<br />
I think a cat would make the best pet for me.<br />
<br />
Firstly cats are very cute. When you come home from work or school and see you your cat they make you feel good inside. Cats are cute so you look forward to seeing them when you come back home.<br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">Secondly cats are active.</span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="background-color: white;"> It is wonderful cats are active because if a dog was chasing it, the cat can jump up somewhere high like a tree or a fence to be safe from a dog. </span></span><span style="background-color: white;"> This will save you getting sad from your cat having an unfortunate accident. Cats are active so this makes them ideal pets to play with. Their playful antics are highly entertaining and joyful to watch - better than T.V!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">Finally cats are warm and soft so you can snuggle and cuddle with them. When they purr they make you feel happy on the inside. Also because they are warm and soft they can keep themselves warm in winter, saving them from freezing to death and money on heating.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white;">I feel I need a pet. A cat would make the best pet for me because they are cute, active, soft and warm.</span><br />

After a lot of chat we decided we have learned about:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Water going up and down, evaporation...</li>
<li>Rain</li>
<li>Wind</li>
<li>Clouds</li>
<li>Directions (NESW)</li>
<li>Temperature</li>
</ul>
<div>
but what is our big question?</div>
Is it...what is wind? what is weather?<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
How can we use this information? Why have we learned all about the weather and the clouds and meteorologists?<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our big question is: </div>
<h3>
Can we eat out lunch outside?</h3>
<h4>
A scientist makes predictions:</h4>
<div>
we can use what we have learned about</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Temperature</li>
<li>Wind (direction and speed)</li>
<li>Clouds</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
to make a prediction </div>
<h4>
A scientist makes observations:</h4>
<div>
When we make an observation we are looking very closely and noticing... for example: There are 5 weaved stars on the wall, or Siena has a purple sweatshirt.</div>
<div>
Our science question observations might be:</div>
<div>
is it windy? is the deck wet? is it cold outside? what direction is the wind coming from? is it raining (hard)?</div>
<h4>
A scientist shares (reports) their ideas:</h4>
<div>
We need to record how often we can eat inside and outside, how often are our predictions correct?</div>
</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Our Big Science Question:</span></h2>
<h3>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Can we predict if we need to eat inside or out - is it going to be a wet lunch time?</span></h3>
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/uBqohRu2RRk?rel=0" width="420"></iframe><br />
<br />
<h4>
Why do we need to measure the wind?</h4>
So we know if we can eat inside or not,<br />
We need to know the wind direction, is the rain going to blow onto us? Like north south east or west.<br />
We might be able to predict the weather for the rest of the day<br />
<h4>
We need to measure how fast the wind is so we know if it is going to move the rain... </h4>
If it is going be really cold, is it going to blow the wind hard?<br />
<br />
<br />
<h4>
Can we make a wind vane? (to measure the direction of the wind?)</h4>
<br />

What do we want to measure?</h4>
We need to measure how fast the air is moving (that is the speed of the wind)<br />
We need to measure where the wind is coming from (that is the wind direction)<br />
<br />
<h4>
What do we need to know?</h4>
What is north, south, east and west - the compass points<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; white-space: pre-wrap;">Conclusions:</span></h4>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Cold water sinks and warm water rises. This is like in the movie, where the warm air form the beach rises and the cold air sinks over the sea.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">The cold air moves into the space where the warm air was. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Moving air is wind!</span></span><br />
