Rainforest art!!!

For the past few weeks we have been doing art about Rainforest art. We all got to chose our own birds and plants to draw and my bird was a Purple starling. first we got waxed crayons and drew leaves of the plant we had chosen. Then once we had done that we got dye and stroked it across the page of A3 Cartridge paper. When it had dried we got A4 Cartridge paper and used the same waxed crayons to draw our birds and paint it with dye. when all of the art work dries we got all of the scrap bits of paper and glued little springs on of the paper so it would pop out. 

!!!Level 1!!!

! Level one !

It is level one and we are COVID-19 free!

Us New Zealanders should be so proud to live in this country and represent it.

We are so happy that there is no more social distancing and we are finally able to walk up to our friends and give them a high five.
It is so much fun being able to come back to school and I am so happy that I am able to have fun with my friends.
We have been in lockdown for so long for example we were in level 4 from 26/3 to the 24/4 then level 3 was from the 28/3 to the 13/5 and level 2 was from the 14/5 to the 8/6.

!Feeling cold!

!Feeling cold!
Today me and my class did a warm up, and  we call it powerful paragraph. Powerful paragraph's is a warm up so we can get our brains thinking properly and learn more descriptive language. Like personification, metaphor's, and simile's... We have a set limit on how much we can write which is hard, But it is a fun little activity to do.

It was lying in the thick strong ice, stealing your hearts away, but beware of its MASSIVE claws buried in the blades of snow.It is above Crystal clear water all alone, hungry, and cold. But it is not what it seems it is just a baby seal waiting for his mother.

My Persuasive writing

To close or not to close the boarders because of Covid-19?

I agree to leave the boarders closed so 

we don't lose half of the country's population, and to make sure our people are protected.

I agree because if we break our bubbles 

this infectious virus will get into our

system and spread so easily.

The risks of peoples health are far to high for this little country/island, and by letting tourist in are very risky, just imagine all of that horrible spread happening right in front of you'r eyes.

It would be a lot more safer and healthier if only New Zealanders were able to travel in New
Zealand and spend our own money in our own  country.

So in conclusion I strongly believe that the boarders should stay closed.

!Fun things to do when you are bored!

Today's update on Covid-19.

COVID-19

Problem: Covid-19 gets in us through either breathing it in or through our skin cell's

Solution: If we be hygienic by washing our hands with soap, and sanitise it creates a sheild of protection so it does not get through our skin cell's, and if we wear a mask we do not breath it in.

Today I have decided that i will give you guys a update on how things are going on with COVID-19.

So far the number of deaths are 0 which is good and the number of new cases are 0,

And that is amazing because the numbers are going down fast, and if we carry on this way we will have defeated COVID-19.

But the main thing we need to remember is...

to stay POSITIVE.

😁 A.N.Z.A.C friends 😁

ANZAC Friends

In world war 1+2 ANZAC people used all sorts of animals such as sniffer dogs, used to drag the sour wounded men to the aid, to carry small little crates across the snow, and the sniffer dogs always were used to carry some messages to the other opponents

war pigeons were used for messages to carry from the trenches to there family at home. In the war they used donkeys, horses, and even elephants for there heavy wait in construction, and for heavy wait transport.

Tortoises were used in the war so all the men had best friends, for comfort, and for love. In the war the most used animals that were used in the war were canaries+Rats because of their sensitive smelling. they were sent into the tunnels to sense poison gasses. To know if there is poison gasses they will come out fast, but if there is no gas they will stay.

So in conclusion animals are life savers, sensing poison gasses, and carrying the wounded.
