step 3 pour 50mls water gently into the middle of the petri dish 

step 4 watch as the water removes the dye from the skittles see which colour reaches the middle fastest 

step 5 record your results on the table below

Geometry shapes

This week in class we got a piece of paper and we cut it and folded it and we made shapes out of it and it turned it into a shape of an angry bird. We were studying Geometry and shapes. Shapes included, 3-D and 2-D triangles  and cubes and hexagons.

Floods May 29-31 2021

 Today we have to blog about the floods.

The flooding has made people leave their houses and schools were closed cause of the rain and damage it did to the roofs and other parts. The flooding caused a few bridges to be closed and broken and made people move to safety (places away from the floods) and it was getting very dangerous to drive in. It's gotten way better now there is no rain and its getting hotter the weather is way better now. Here is a picture of Christchurch in flood.

Please leave a comment that will hopefully encourage me to continue blogging and make improvements where necessary.

This week we have been doing stuff about bullying and you could  create a kahoot or a crossword   I did a crossword and we had to do words and then do the meaning of them here is the work.

Bullying

 Information I studied about bulling 

The difference between a bystander and an upstander is that a bystander is not much use when bullying happens. an upstander offers support and seeks adult help when it's unsafe.

wolf

 This week we have been drawing a wolf and one side was already drawn and then we had to mirror it and i picked 3 different colour's yellow blue and green.

 In Nga tangata,Hurumanu 1 we studied the lives of some local, nation and a hero is a male or female or group of people who have a kind heart and a big heart.

I made some slides about 6 sporting heroes. They were Richie Mo’unga Chelsea Bremmer Richie Mccaw Valerie Adams Mbappe Cistano Rondldo.

I also made some slides about a local hero who achieved honours in cricket. He was Richard Hadlee.

We read about a music group called Crowed House they were said to be ‘heroes for on Day when they performed in Christchurch recently.
