My Class

My class is awesome and very fun. We always make sure that people feel included when they come because the more there is the funer it is!! We do the funest games and the coolest experiments. Room 5 is more than a class it is a family to everyone! And it helps that we have the coolest teacher that relates to everything. Room 5 is THE BEST CLASS EVER!!!!!!!!❤️❤️

Science

On Wednesday my class and I did an awesome science experiment.

We had three tubs of water and put different colours of dye in the tubs, then we got six paper towels and took three of them and wet them, the other three we left them dry. we put the wet ones on the outside of the rims of the tubs but made sure that the ends of the paper towles were dipped in the coloured water. We then did the same but with dry paper towels but insted of putting them on the outside we put them on the inside so we knew which was which.  In conclusion the dry worked better because the water did't have to fight against water.

The Strike

On Thursday all of the primary schools in New Zealand had a strike day, Which is when all the teachers have a day off so they can go and protest. On the Strike day me and some of my friends went to the movies and then we went shopping. I had a really fun day and i'm sure my friends did as well!.

My Teacher

Miss Drummond is an awesome teacher. Her style is very quirky but I love it. She is always coming up with new and fun ways to teach us. She said that teaching is what she loves to do and it was the most fun out of all the jobs she tried. Miss Drummond has an awesome and one-of-a-kind sense of style. I love having Miss Drummond as my teacher, she is awesome. 

Animal Classification

Today we learned about how animals are classified into groups. Animals are either vertebrates (Which means they have a spine) or invertebrates (Which means they don't have a spine).

Invertebrates are animals like jellyfish, crabs, insects and  octopus.
Vertebrates are put into five groups. They are mammals, birds, reptiles, fish and amphibians. Mammals have  fur or hair and give birth to live young. Birds have feathers and lay hard eggs. Reptiles are cold blooded and lay soft eggs. Amphibians breath through their skin and need to keep their skin moist. Fish breath through gills and have fins.

Examples of each type:

Mammals: Monkeys, Lions, Manatee, Pigs, Deer 

Birds: Owl, Ostrich, Eagle, Duck, Rooster

Reptiles: Chameleon, Tortoise, Tuatara, Crocodile, Snake

Amphibians: Frog, Salamander, Caecilian, Axolotl, Newt  

Fish: Stingray, Seahorse, Clown fish, Blobfish, Giant Oar Fish

The school Production: The Toy Shop on Zip Zap Avenue

♩♩♩♩We live at the Toy Shop on Zip Zap Avenue when the shop door locks at night the click clears us to move magically we come alive until the lock is turned then we change back into toys for little girls and boys♩♩♩♩

This is a story of a toy shop that is going under. Until a family of four comes for a look. The two girls Tina and Amy fall in love with all of the toys but two particularly catch their eye. Tina finds a bee called Buzz and swoops it up right at the second, But Amy however is't so lucky and has to ask her father if she can get the Jack-in-the-box when they get home. When the shop closes up Thing 1 and Thing 2 wake up all the toys and party in honor of their friend Buzz the bee as they party things get moved and the shop is not as it was when the shop keeper left. When the family come back for Amy's toy its not there. They soon find that it was just moved and bought the toy and the shop keeper said "sometimes I get the feeling that this shop is magical"!!!.   

Shopping

The weekend is the time for shopping because you have just got your pocket money. The shops I like to go to are Typo, Kiki.k and Kmart. I get about $5 a week from doing lots of chores that involves doing the washing, Cleaning my room, Cleaning the toilet and vacuuming the hall way. This is just what I need after a long day at school to get payed 5 buckeroos.

Did you know that Oxford St in London there are more than 300 shops!!
