Monday Funday


Hi bloggers, today's post is about our last wheels day of 2017, in other words my last wheels day at Waikowhai Primary School. There were 3 parts to the day. Games, wheels and going to the pool and slip n' slide. On the day there were also some leftover things that weren't sold at Gala as well that you could buy. The day was really fun. My favourite part was going down the slip n' slide but not the part when I got a splinter in my foot. When it was time to the games me and my friends learnt how to play a new game called Draughts. The game was so much fun to play and took a long time to finish playing. Something that could improve would probably be making the slip n' slide more slippery. I would also change the colour of my dark coloured clothes because they made me quite hot. 🌞 Overall the day was totally awesome. Here are some cool photos of the day.

Inquiry Design Challenge

Hi blogging world, this blog post is about one of my favourite things that we did this year. Mine is the Inquiry design challenge. For this challenge we had to get in groups of three and my teacher gave us a materials which were 3 pieces of newspaper, 4 paperclips, 1 metre of string and some tape. We were then asked to create something that was equivalent to what the teacher said. for example a handbag, umbrella etc and we only had 15 minutes to make it. Here are some photos of the activity.









The challenge was super fun and was quite intense. My favourite part was when we had to introduce our product and say why people should buy it. A negative thing that happened was that sometimes your item would just break when it's the last minute or when you are introducing it. At times I thought my team was doing a great job at making it sturdy but sometimes I thought our item wouldn't be strong enough and break in the middle of us talking. It was really hard trying not to waste the supplies we had but, at the end everything needed a lot so we ended up with no material left. I would definitely want to do this challenge again because it is so much fun.

Gala Day Thinking Hats

Hi bloggers I'm Joyce and today my post is going to be about my Thinking Hats about the Gala day that my school hosted. The Gala was so much fun! For the activity we had to write something about the Gala related to the six thinking hats. On each slide is a different thinking hat and we had to think about what we were going to write. Have a look at my work.



This activity was quite fun to do because I got to recap about the Gala day because I kind of forgot what happened. The best part about the Gala was shopping and throwing wet sponges at teachers. It was so funny when they got soaked. Another fun thing was when we made advertisements for the Gala. We got to decorate things which was a ton of fun. A negative thing that happened was that after you did all the shopping you needed there wasn't much more to see. Overall I thought the Gala was so fun and a huge success. At the end we raised $13,400 and that will go towards building the new junior adventure playground. I think next time I will add some more photos as there was a lot.

Please leave some feedback so I can improve. 
Bye!
