Camp menu

Kia Ora whanau,
Last week we were put into groups and were assigned a budget to create a menu for a school camp of  106 people.
There were 2 people that were gluten and dairy intolerant,
6 vegetarians and everybody else could eat normally.
We could shop from pak'nsave or countdown.
I was grouped with Izzy, Sean, Zoe and Emma.
What we decided to do was to split the work between all of us.
Zoe and Emma worked on Day 1, Sean and I worked on Day 2 and Izzy worked on Day 3.
Here's the doc if you want to read it.

Haló teaghlach. (Scottish Gaelic)

Kia Ora whanau,This week each of us had to choose a country and research about it and it's history, foods, sports, etc . . . The country I chose was Scotland.I was researching different foods and sports when I came across a sport that I could not ignore. . .Haggis Hurling!!!!!Yes, we all know that haggis is another absolutely delicious treat, but did you also know that Scotland’s national dish can be part of special Scottish sport? Whoever hurls the haggis the furthest, wins. It’s simple. . . And it's amazing!!!!! By far my favorite sport ever!!

Dotted art

Kia Ora whanau,
This week we were making dotted art for our cultural night using cotton buds.
It was so much fun but I think that I rushed it a little.

I think it turned out well though.

QR codes

Kia Ora whanau,
Last week for our contracts we had to read an article on Wonderopolis, choose 5 tricky words and make a video about them and their meaning, after that we had to make a QR code for it.

Click here to see my qr code video,
and here's my QR code.

I drew a Cardio-id

Kia Ora whanau,
This fortnight for math art we had to draw a Cardioid.
To help us draw this weird but cool shape we were given a grid like template,
It was basically a circle with numbers 1-60 around it.
At the bottom of this template was a table with numbers 1-60 at the top and underneath was blank.
We had to fill in the blank half with numbers, specifically counting in two's, for example 2, 4, 6, 8.
Then we had to draw fine lines following that pattern that we made.

Here's a pic of the Cardioid.

And here's a pic of a Nephroid that I drew afterwards, but instead of counting in 2's, I counted in 3's.

My slide

Kia Ora whanau,
This week we had to write down something that we were curious about.
I wrote down " how do you pronounce pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis "
After that we had to read an article on wonderopolis about what we wondered, then we had to make a Google slide about what we found / read and I enjoyed it.

Creativity is the best

Kia Ora whanau, Recently me and Lee-Zion created The Adventures of Cacti-corn or The Chronicles of Cacti-corn. we are not sure about the name yet.

He can withstand extreme temperatures and can stay in the desert for a year without water,
Don't forget he can shoot prickles out of his horn (it's a cactus) But is that all he can do?
Stay tuned and find out next time in The Adventures of Cacti-corn. . . or Cacti-corn Chronicles🌵🌵🐎
