Hi everyone! Hope you are having a good summer holidays so far! Since it was Christmas a few weeks ago, Merry LATE Christmas! So for SLJ, we had to share a video of our family singing a song, but unfortunately, We didn't have any videos of us when we went carol sining, so, I put a picture we took instead. I hope that's ok!
Our Radish taste test.
This morning at school, Mrs.Harewa showed us some radishes she grew in her garden, she pulled out 2 small radishes from a bread bag. She told us that they were fresh from her garden and we were going to the teacher’s staff room to taste them. We all lined up outside and Mrs.Harewa took us there. She told us all to sit down on one of the chairs. “ Ok, Grace and Erin please go wash the radishes.” she said. When Grace and Erin had finished washing the radishes Mrs. Harewa got a small knife and started cutting the radishes in small pieces, once we had put the radishes in our mouth and started chewing them a little, all of us went straight to the rubbish bin! We all opened the bin up and spit the radish out! Most of us thought it was spicy or disgusting. The others SOMEHOW thought it was pretty good.

How I would save red pandas
The most endangered species of bear is the red panda.There are less than 10,000 red pandas alive due to COVID-19. We humans are destroying their habitats by cutting down trees and other native plants. This could also be a huge impact on us because the more we cut down trees,the harder it gets for us to breath. The red panda is the original panda,discovered some 50 years before the giant panda!Red pandas are the only species remaining in their taxonomic family, a living relic of the past. Saving them is important to the preservation of the world's natural heritage and global biodiversity.I help them by,Not littering,informing others about red pandas and how to save them from going extinct.I would also make Lot’s of red panda resorts,where people would get red panda that look sick or ingured and take them to the resort to be looked after,there would be plenty of food and water for them to drink and eat. There would also be little baskets up in the trees that are filled with soft cotten for them to sleep in. there would also be plenty of trees for them to climb on and get exercise for them to go back into the wild

Today I had to make an animation of a summary about the story we read, We were learning how to summarise. Summarising is when you tell the most impartant parts of the story. We were summarising the love story of Hinemoa and Tutanekai, and their forbidden love.Have you heard this story before? Do you think it was good That they did not want Hinemoa and Tutanekai to get Married? Or do you think it wasn't fair? Let me know! Here is my work!
So today I made an animation about shopping,there is not much to talk about so here it is!
Today I made an slide show about money, how I would spend my money,I how I could get money and much more! Here's what I did!
Reading I had to make a Foursquare beginning middle and end thing on in my litresy book.Here's what I did.Have you done this before and what story did you read word story did you read?

Hello Everyone! Today I did some writing about how Screen time should be limited to 1 hour per day.
There is not much to explain so here's my work.Do you agree or disagree with me and why?
Screen time should be limited to 1 hour per day
Screen time should be limited to 1 hour per day. The reason why I agree with this is because If we have too much screen time e.g: More than 3 hours, Could hurt your eyes badly and could cause some serious disabilities like colour blindness or even blindness! We should have 1-3 hours per day,I think more than that is really bad.My screen time is usually 1-2 hours per day, but I am not allowed to watch 1-2 hours per day at one single time, I have to watch it in chunks of time. If you like to watch your screen and you don’t have a time limit get some blue light glasses.These kind of glasses aren’t like any kind of normal glasses,these are blue light glasses,these glasses help your eyes protect themselves from blue light,blue light is projected from technologies like i-pads,phones etc.Blue light could really hurt your eyesight and as I said earlier it could make you colour blind or make you you blind, but is there a a way to get rid of blue light from our phones and i-pads? Well,No. Well,Not yet. Scientists are still trying to find a way to get rid of it.

Hello there! Today I'll be sharing some more writing from lockdown,This one is about why we should grow our own vegetables.Do you agree with me and why? I would love to know! Here's my work.
We should grow our own
Vegetables because so we can be healthy in our own ways
All green vegetables are minerals,they also have iron in them,but these minerals have iron in different form.There not a big quantity of iron. They are teeny tiny pieces of iron that you can not see with a naked eye.Vegetables are very healthy.
I was learning about marketing and packaging,We had to do some writing on why we need packaging.
Why do YOU think we need packaging and why?I would love to know!Here's my work:
Why do we need Packaging?
Packaging is an important part of marketing. If it was a drink, the cup would still be a part of its packaging. If it had no cup,You guessed it! It would all just spill out! Same with other foods like fish and chips and McDonalds. Having a good package is also a good way to get customers to buy your product. It's also a great way to let your creativity run wild! The cool designs on the package can help people buy it too! On the package you can also write something catchy about your product.
Hello everyone! Are you guys happy? Well, I hope you are! Today for reading my group,the Willy Wonkas were learning to visualise!
