The red rectangle will be the shape that blocks the phone from falling and the cylinder will  be the part that has the phone to lean on something. I created this on TinkerCad and got some ideas from our teacher Ms Ferguson.

Kiwi Can

This week for Kiwi Can we are learning about Respect. Respect means being freindly to one enother and giving full attention to the one that is speaking. It was our first week back at Kiwi can for Term 4. We had a new kiwi can instructer today and her name was Ms Paige, we also had Mr Latu and Mr Matt. Our kiwi can group got split to do a argument about a topic the Kiwi Can instructers choose. Our first one was Should we wear uniform to school? My team was the Why shouldn't we wear unifrom. It was a good argument but Our team managed to get the point. Our last argument was about why we should have Kiwi Can? Whoever got the point has 2 more points added to their team. We were lucky enough to get Why we should have Kiwi Can. The other team had good points but eventually we got the 2 points.

I learnt that Pam Ayres is 71 years of age and  is a English poet, comedian, songwriter and presenter of radio and television programmes. 

That Was Spring Illustration

Today I have created a Illustration about Spring. I first created a poem that was all about spring. I then got to pick a verse and draw about that verse.

My collage shows different drawings I did on showing peace. 

The New Zealand Shake Out

Today I have collaborated with Mele and Chavda to create a DLO about the New Zealand Shakeout. Together we wrote about the New Zealand Shake out, Facts, Napier, 5 W's and H and we showed a collage to show the drill we had. Learning more about the Shake out was really fun because I learnt new things. I learnt that if you couldn't go under a table then you should lock your wheel chair or sit on a chair and cover your head and neck with your arms and hands. Our school is so lucky to have participated in the drill New Zealand Shake out. Remember when there is a earthquake Drop, Cover and Hold.
