 This week in an inquiry the people that bout bottles and make greenhouses. and we had to go and get some soil but first, we had to cut your bottles. We had to bring a bottle that is 1L. We had to chose to have a flower seed or something that you can eat! I chose the flower because they are pretty!

 This week I did the maths mystery as well.  the last clue was hard but I had some help from Kristeen. This was fun.  Thye first clue was that the culpert is yellwo! The second clue was that the culpert has a mouth! The threed clue was that the culpret had arched eyes! the 4 clue was that the culpert has an accessory halo! SO THE CULPEART IS YELLWO HAPPY SMILING ARECHED AND HALO!!

  This is my Letter of the week and I think I put way more effort in this letter of the week than the other one I did. And I am so proud of my self!

  This Literacy mistory was hard but the clues were kinder easy at the same time the first clue was hard. The other clues were easy because they were similar to the other maths mystery fun things so yay! The culprit had blonde hair. The culprit was American! The culprit is 18! So the culprit is HUGO COOPER!!!

 Today I chose to do a roll a story and we had to roll a dice and find out what the main character you get and where the setting is going to be and what the problems going to be. and I got a Jinny and the beach and the problem was turning into a tomato!! at first, it was hard to make a story out of those things but then I thought and had the idler so it was easy after that.

 This week I went into since and the first day we made borax crystal with my group in my group, Haven, Lola, Carmen, and Marley. first, we had to make a shape with a pipe and Haven did the shape then we got a cup from the kitchen Then we put hot water in the cup and borax in the cup. We had to stir it up so we could not see it then we tied the shape on to a string and the string on a lice block stick. The day after Crystals were in the cup and grown on the pipe!! It looked so cool and it was so fun looking at it and making it! Today we are making sugar. 

 This maths mystory was so hard but really fun it had some bad things that I did not know but my friend Lola helped me and I am so happy and thanks to full that she did that. It was fun because it was hard. I was so happy after I figured it out yay!!!!!!  The person that stole the metal was..... CLAIRE WHITE! I have done all the working out here it is!

 This maths mystery was so hard I bring it home and mum helped me with it. it was way harder than the others but it was better for me to do a harder one to challenge my self. But I know which person it was...... IT WAS COURTNEY CHIN!!!! I loved this maths mystory it was fun.  The culprit Was in ART CLASS the culprit came to school by....... BIKE! the culprit had Long hair! 

This was hard because I dod not know words with the letter g in it that much. So it was challenging but that was good for me to do a challenging thing for me. The righting was the easy course I had already had it in my head.

 This week is te Reo Maori week and we are going to do some challenges and right now we did this challenge where we had to choose a phrase from a slide and learn how to say it and I chose to say Karawhiua!! Karawhiua means give it heaps and give it all you got. I had to video my self saying it but it didn't work but I do know how to say it so that's good here are my slides!!  

This week we did a writing sample and I think I did a good job and I think it is the best story I have done! My story has got excitement and some girls get lost in a well where some trees are... After we did the writing sample on our devices Miss Mac printed them out we had to re-read it to see if it made sense I missed some words and made some mistakes. but I did edit it and make more sense and sounded better than it was before! The story is like there are three best friends called Haven, Lola, and Shirley. and they went over to Lola's house to have a sleepover and they went to Lola's creek but then they got lost and......

This week I got in the cooking group! It was so fun. On the first day we talked about safety in the kitchen and who would bring what. On the second day, we had to bring our vegetables and we cut up the food and I kinda got to eat some of my own food hehe. On the last day, it was time to eat the soup we got to have bread and butter with the soup it was yum to dip the bread in the soup. the hard part was cutting my food because I did not want to cut myself!! the easiest part was eating it because it was so yummy that was my fav part too!! It was very healthy. It was cool that I sat near my best best best best friend! It was cool how I learned to make the soup so that was cool. The stuff I bring is Karits, tomato, and red cabbage. 

This was fun and I learned how to use them so that was helpful haha.

Now we are doing new maths worksheets we have to do one every day. we are learning to add one hundred numbers together. By adding the one hundred's numbers first together and then the tens and the ones.

For inquiry, I'm learning way more about plants and now in our homerooms, we do this thing like we have to write this story that you have to pretend that you are a plant and talk about Photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a progress that the plant goes through and I rent a lot!!!

This week we have done five Emoji coordinates and some of them were hard like the unicorn because I did a mistake. but they were fun and some of them were easy here is my work!
