Book Of The Road

A couple of days ago we were told about something that our class will be doing called "Book Of The Road ". We are working with a buddy class the school's name is St Peter's it is a private school and it is located in Cambridge.

The first thing we did to get involved with this was answer the question what is empathy on a app called answer garden. We will be exchanging different activities with St Peter's.
The thing that I am looking forward to is meeting and finding out about new people.

Thug - The Hate You Give

Kia Ora fellow readers for today's blog post I will be reviewing the book that I have been reading. The book that I have been reading is called "The Hate U Give" and the book is by a lady called Angie Thomas. I grabbed this book off the shelf because the title left me wondering what the story was about. I have not yet finished the book but I have really enjoyed reading it so far, the book has a lot of passion in it and there is a large amount of detail and interesting points of view.

This book is about a teenage girl named Starr who witnesses her friend's death after meeting him at a party. She then founds it very difficult to overcome her fear of cops. She gets plenty of support from her brother's and parents. She goes to a fancy school and feels that she has to act a different way to fit in. That is all that has happened in the story so far. But I will update this blog post once I am done reading the story or I will create a new blog post.

Here is what the front cover of the book looks like.....

Who are we Hurumanu

Hello fellow readers and welcome to another blog post. Today we will be talking about Maori history. Today in class we were learning about Maori history. 

Maori originated from Hawaiki and they came to New Zealand in Waka and fought Moriori taking over the land. The Maori brought with them Dogs, Rats, Crops, Kumara and Taro. 

The South Island was too cold to grow crops so most Maori moved to North Island. They got most of there food from the sea. Scientists have recently discovered that Moriori and Maori share the same D.N.A.

The Moa became extinct because of the rats and the dogs eating their eggs and the Maori people hunting them. The Maori grouped themselves and created different tribes. 

The leaders, chiefs, lords, kings were called rangitira. They looked after the people and protected the land.




Mars

Hello fellow readers and welcome to another blog post today I will be talking about mars. Today for Science me and my friend Felicity found 8 facts about mars and put it on a D.L.O here is our D.L.O..


Our teacher gave us some more questions to answer so here they are.
Why can't you start fire on Mars?? Because there is no Oxygen on Mars.

How long would it take to send a radio message to Mars?? 13 minutes
Was there ever any water on Mars ?? Yes.

Science - The Martian Recount

Kia Ora fellow readers and welcome back to another blog post, for the past three lessons of science we have been watching a movie called "The Martian".

Before we started to watch the movie we had to predict what was going to happen based off of the movie cover, I predicted that there would be a man who travels to mars and gets stuck there because of a storm, surprisingly this prediction did come true.

10 minutes into the movie the teacher paused it and we wrote in our books the characters, the setting and three of the details. Once we had wrote down those three things we continued watching the movie and found out that his team had to leave him in the storm. He ended up being stranded on Mars and used the necessities he had left to survive.

He grabbed his poop and made fertiliser out of it and planted potatoes to make more potatoes and it was successful. NASA thought that he was dead but soon found out that he was alive after multiple attempts they found a way to communicate with each other.

He found a way that might help with him getting home he had to travel 150km but to save fuel he had to turn heating off but doing that would make him freeze to death so he picked up a nuclear bomb and put it in the rover because it was radiating heat. This plan was unsuccessful.

They tried a couple of times to get more food to him because he was running out and the first one was  unsuccessful  the second time they tried another plan that would get him home and get him food and it was successful.

In the end he managed to get home and no one got hurt in the process and he ended up teaching young students about mars and how to survive.
