Rarotonga

 Rarotonga 

BANG,CRASH,THUMP! we have landed in Rarotonga we hopped on a bus and it took us to Edge-water Resort there we unpacked our bags in a room called a villa we were villa 15.
We stayed there for 8 days and went snorkeling a lot and saw huge fish and eels. To be honest I was a little scared when I found a green eel because it kept on following me. My highlight of Rarotonga was going on a glass bottom boat when we swung on a really long rope that went over the water and coconut climbing.
I can't wait to go back to Rarotonga!

Soccer

Lately we have been playing winter Sports and my class were playing Soccer. 

 

Every two weeks we switch classes and do a different sport.

Here is a pic of me playing soccer...

Weird science!

On the 15th of November on Friday we did some weird science and this is what we did...

First we put baking soda in a balloon and put vinaga into a small bottle then we placed the balloon on top of the bottle and shock all the baking soda into the bottle of vinaga and then it created gas and so much pressure that it blow up the balloon to its full size and then we gently took the balloon off the top of the bottle and let it go fly in the air!

For our second experiment we got a mini canister and put vinaga in it and got a little zip lock snack bag and saler-taped it all up and put backing soda inside the bag and placed the canister in the bag as well and saler-taped the top up to make sure the gas can't escape, then we shock it up and it blow up and got bigger and bigger then exploded all over me because of the pressure of gas from the vinaga and baking soda!

Then for our last experiment we got a plastic bottle and put 5 holes in the lid and got vinaga and filled the bottle with vinaga about 3 quarters of the way and got a zip lock snack bag and cut the corner off and put baking soda in it and stuffed it in the bottle and quickly put the lid on tight and then all the vinaga and baking soda came out the lid like a sprinkler from the pressure and we all stood under it and got durty but still had alot of fun and it was cool having all our experiments worked this time!

Tennis

Tennis

Every Wednesday for the past Three weeks room 15 have been doing tennis.

A couple of things I learnt was volley. You have one person at the net with a racket  and you only hit with a softly into the opponents side and try to make it double bounce. If you do you will get a point. 

Her is a photo of me playing tennis with my friends.

Can you guess if I hit the ball or not?

Maths Statistics

A few weeks ago Room 15 Had to colour a piece of white paper in green which is fruits and veges,purple which is drinks,pink which is sweets and desserts and blue which is other.
We had to vote which one we would go home to eat and which is the most common.
The most common is fruits and veges,The least common is other.
We also made the squares into different graphs like a bar graph,Pie graph,dot plot,strip graph and histogram.
What would you vote for?
