In class we read this journal that had lost of different stories in it but the one that we read was Fever by Rita Hopkins. It is a story a bout this girl who is going on came with her class to this old abandoned hospital where people in the olden days would go with hope that they would get better, but most of them never came home. Carly the main character in this story starts to get scared and doesn't want to go to camp because of the scary ghost stories but she also wants to go so she can learn how to milk a cow. After the ghost stories Carly starts feeling sick and gets a fever  

Redskin Persuasive Writing

We had to wright a persuasive text on redskin lollies, to persuade Mr Billings to buy us redskins and why.


Redskins Writing

  • I need redskins because I have finished all of my homework and have handed them in on time and are up to a high standard.
  • I need them so bad because I deserve them after all of the hard work that has gone into my homework that it's just not far that I get no reward for my work.
  • They have a great raspberry kind of taste, and are confectionary. They are sugary and gives you lots of energy. They are small sized so you can eat them wherever you want.

I need redskins. I need redskins because of all of my hard work and achievements in my homework.

Every week I have handed in my homework and it has been up to a high standard. It has always been in on time and never late. It is always high quality work. I always make sure that it is up to the standard every time, but now since I have done all of that hard work I don't know about you but I think I deserve a reward.

I need them so bad because if you don't give them to me I will get very angry. After doing some hard work that you have done and you get no thanks or anything except for maybe a sticker or something that says “ great job, well done,” that doesn't feel like it is enough. That's when the redskins come into play. You see after doing all of that hard work that took so long that you did in your own time, there is a need for a reward. I have completed all of the homework for this whole term and have done it to high quality. Now I need a little something to show me that my teacher appreciates my work.

Redskins are a great confectionary treat that is A.K.A (also known as) lollies. Many people buy them like my teacher to eat when the kids in our class aren't looking, and then other people buy them as a treat for their kids or something like that. They have a great raspberry flavour to them and are chewy and yummy. They give you a lot of energy and give you that satisfaction to know that you have done well with you work.

This is why I deserve redskins. We won't get them all the time but if we use them as a little bit of encouragement maybe that will help with better learning for future.



Hard Materials


In hard materials we made key tags. Mine was a saddle. We had to have a person that we were going to give the ketag to

Furnware Trip

Earlier this term we went to Furnware in hastings as for our inquiry is innovation. Furnware is a place were they make a sorts of cool teacher furniture for schools around the world.Three class's went on two busses to Furnware. Once we got there we sat down and they told us that we were going to be going in three groups. Our class first went to the designing room and designed our own table for our class. We were only drawing the designs and coming up with ideas though. We shared them to the group and then we went to the constructing area.

We next went to the constructing area we we watch the furniture being made. It was really interesting watching how it as all being made and just the process involved too, was really cool. Our group started in the middle of the factory. We saw were the chair legs and things are painted and getting checked and ready for shipping and sale. The first group started in the front of the factory at the beginning and the third group started at the packaging area were they are getting ready for shipping.

Finally we went into the room at the front of the building and learnt about Furnware and the beginning of it and all sorts of facts.

Technology USB

In tech this term our big goal was making our USB. My design was a horse. 
We had to first plan our USB. We did that by drawing an idea of what we wanted our USB to like like. My first idea was a horse since it is my favourite animal and I love riding horses too. My idea was that I wanted the horse to be galloping down the field. My second idea was that I wanted to do Mc Donald fries, because they are my favourite food. We second had to write down the attributes to our chosen design, and chose three that you really wanted to focus on. We next went to one of the computers and using 2d design we created the shape on the computer. We had to to trace the out line with red, which means that part is going to be cut. Then using black coloured lines we put then on the parts of the shape that we wanted to engrave. Once we had completed the whole shape we had to make another two by copy and pasting them. After that we had one shape with all of the engravment and stuff, a second with just the
