My last Hay Park School blog post

This is my last Hay Park School blog post, although I have only been at this school for the last two and a half years, I have learnt lots of things and how fun and generous this school is. I have made lots of friends that help and support me with my learning.

Passion project

  On our passion project we couldn't put our videos on so when you get to those slides just skip it.

Passion project

 Me;James and Evanjaline have been working on our passion project we have finished two of our events and have to do are videos for them.

Thinkboard

Hi everyone, McCahon class have been working on a thinkboard. We have been working on these to show that we understand the equation.

Floodland

In McCahon class we have been reading a novel named flood land. It has been written by Marcus Sedgwick. Marcus Sedgwick has made this as a children's fantasy novel. We held a debate which defines if the main character should trust the tribe that she got washed a way to. Or not, this is what I think.


I don’t think that Zoe should trust them because they might use her only to upgrade her boat and make it bigger, so that they can leave on their own. Although, they might take her with them so she can tell the three boys where to go from her compass. But when they get to the place they were heading to, they might kill her. Which would be a warning for Zoe, so she should be alert of what’s ahead of her. 

Sun smart poster

Me Lyle and James have just finished our sun smart poster, it talks about why you need to wear a hat,sun block and other things. If you can't see it in the picture make sure you come in our class and check it out.

Thank you
Denzal

My Remember when poem

That Was Camp.

Remember when I couldn’t ride the big waves then I never gave up and kept trying?

Remember when I was doing slingshot and I hit the edge of the big bucket?

That was camp.

Remember when we were doing archery and Sinead got a bulls eye like straight through the middle?

Remember when we were having dinner and everyone was trying to sneak seconds?

That was camp.

Remember when we were building our raft and as we almost about reached the water it fell apart?

Remember when the boys were in their dorm and Mrs Kingston had to walk around till 11 o'clock because we were still awake till midnight?

Do you remember?

That was camp.

Quad blogging

I have just finished doing a blog post on Kereru school. I have done this because it is the last day of Quad blogging and that is when we communicate with other schools.

My Blog Comment

I have just finished my blog comment on Sitaleki's blog. 

Paerata school

On Friday the 26th of June 2015 I posted a blog comment to Paerata school. In the next four weeks we are doing something called Quad blogging and if you don't know what it is, it's when you comment on peoples blogs from other schools. There are 4 clusters of schools that blog on each others blogs. This is my comment I did to them.

The twinkling stars at night

Have you ever heard a myth(how raven stole the sun)about the stars when you were little because I have. I have just learnt in school what the lifecycle of stars is. I have also just learnt that the sun is one of the smallest stars in our solar system.

Information about the stars

Stars have lots of great things about them and I am going to tell you three things you probably didn’t know about them. When stars are first born they have to battle with the gravity to stay in the air. Stars are normally one to ten billion years old. My last fact about stars is that there are 40 billion in five billion galaxies.

Appearance

Stars are made by their black bodies. Did you, know that the second brightest star in the whole solar system  is one of the smallest stars in our solar system and that’s the sun. There are lots of stars in the sky but not all of them you can see. When the stars are shining down they do not give out enough steady light.  

Types of stars

The sun is a dwarf star,  The biggest star in our solar system can make it’s own huge galaxy.have you ever wondered what a shooting stars is, shooting star isn’t a star it is really a meteor that is flying through the night sky. An did you know that a exploding star, supernova , can generate shock waves so powerful that they compress a nearby nebular.

Life cycle

For a star to be born it needs a clump of dust and gas which is called Nebulae. When the stars are red giants they form a supergiant then they pleasure into a blackhole. Did you know that the sun is 5 billion years old.The force of gravity inside is so intense that nothing can escape it, not even light can escape it.

I hope you have learnt something from this information report and it encourages you to write you own. If you want some more information on the stars you can look at my friends at hay park blogs thank you for reading.

[Introduction]

Have you ever heard a myth(how raven stole the sun)about the stars when you were little because I have. I have just learnt in school what the lifecycle of stars are. I have also just learnt that the sun is one of the smallest star in our solar system.

[Paragraph 1 - Information about the stars]

Stars have lots of great things about them and I am going to tell you three things you probably didn't know about them. When stars are first born they have to have a battle with the gravity to stay in the air. Stars are normally one to ten billion years old. My last fact about stars is that there are 400,000,000,000 in 5,000,000,000 galaxies.

[Paragraph 2 - Appearance]

Stars are made by their black bodies. Did you, know that the second brightest star in the whole solar system  is one of the smallest stars in our solar system and that’s the sun. There are lots of stars in the sky but not all of them you can see. When the stars are shining down they do not give out enough steady light.  

[Paragraph 3 - Types of stars]

The sun is a sun is a dwarf planet in our solar system. The biggest star in our solar system can make it’s own huge galaxy. Did you know that a shooting star isn’t a star it is really a meteor that is flying through that night sky. An exploding star,supernova, can generate shock waves so powerful that they compress a nearby nebular.

[Paragraph 4- Life cycle]

For a star to be born it needs a clump of dust and gas which is called Nebulae. When the stars are red giants they form a supergiant then they pleasure into a blackhole. Did you know that the sun is 5 billion years old.The force of gravity inside is so intense that nothing can escape it, not even light can escape it.

[Conclusion]

I hope you have learnt something from this information report and encourages you to write you own. If you want some more information on the stars you can look at my friends at hay parks blogs thank you for reading.
