My house of bricks Reflection
Hello guys, I was supposed to post this on early August but I forgot to, sorry about that! But here is my blog.
My favourite Lego activity was passing the bricks because at the end I got to see what people did to my Lego and it looked so cool.
My least favourite Lego activity was mosaic because it was not very fun and I wanted a little more colours but that's OK.
The activity that tested my perseverance the most was race car because we had to make sure it was good and not bad but it was pretty hard to do that because on our first car it broke and then we fixed it then it flipped when it stopped then we tried again and it was perfect!
The most challenging activity was the race car because when we were making our car we had to make sure it would not break and went far so we had some trial and error.
I enjoyed working collaboratively with others because if I did not have a buddy it would be slower, but if you had a buddy you could work faster and have ideas and use them to make it cooler.

Calystah's absolutely delightful graph!
Hello everyone! On term 3, our maths goal was to display data using a stem and leaf graph, choose an appropriate data, display using more than one variable, interpret information from graphs plan an investigation. I made these 2 graphs with 2 statements on each of them with Google Sheets.
When I was making this I felt excited and it was entertaining to make!

my epic story!
Hi everyone today this week I've been making this story inspired by the movie UMBRELLA here it is,
Just before darkness fell, the door to Miss Elem’s Home For Children opened wide. The girl with the vibrant sunflower yellow umbrella, reverently entered the orphanage before finding a home for her umbrella. Not wanting to be seen, Boris fastly peeked his head around the door frame so that he was hidden from view. Standing off to the side, the girl observed the joyful scene while the children searched in the box for old treasures. The girl smiled while she watched the young boy racing around the room as fast as a roller coaster. Her smile swiftly vanished abruptly as she looked over to the umbrella stand and all she saw were puddles. Her beloved umbrella was gone.

Calystah's Trip Recount
Hello everyone, today I will be telling you about Tumu’s trip to Margaret Mahy,
On Thursday the 20th of May Tumu Hub went to the Waka to learn how to row the boat, Margaret Mahy Playground to draw pictures with Mrs Carney, Victoria Square to learn about the pou and other stuff there, we went to the Tuna so we can feed them, and we learnt about the mats all around the city for our learning.
My most favourite part of the trip was the Waka because we got to learn how to row the boat and we were supposed to say “Hee! Ha! Hee! Ha!” When we were paddling the waka, we also got to sing E minaka ana on the boat, and I was in the front of the Waka.
Something I learnt about the Māori mats was how they were made out of brick not fabric, also how there were so many mats across the city, there were 5 layers on the mats! There were lots of interesting things on the mats like lots of leaves and Māori patterns.
The thing I found the most interesting was Margaret Mahy because they had many things about it. I did not know about some stories that Elsie Lock and Margaret Mahy did, songs from Ngai Tahu and some more songs, and there were even some native plants on the stones.
This trip has helped me with my PBL because I learnt more about my tūrangawaewae.
Have you ever been on a waka before? Comment!
