They did some experiments. They were making things and turned them into jelly but not the jelly that you eat. After a movie and dinner he went back home. </span> </span><br />
<br />
<div style="color: purple;"><span style="font-size: large;">Hori went to a farm and they did some shearing. He also went to the beach at Kawhia and stayed the night. Hori caught some fish with his fishing rod. </span></div><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: cyan;">Charlee went to her Dad's place. She bought a colourful bird, it was a pukeko. Charlee also found a starfish at the beach at Kaiawa. It was missing a leg, they put it back into the sea.</span> <span style="color: #073763;">Te Heruika said that the leg would grow back when it is in the water.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: red; font-size: large;">Harley went to the farm to ride on his yellow four wheeler motorbike. They went to his Dad's friends, then to his Mum's place and then back to his Dad's house. </span>Room1OPS2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/03698368833103532137noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137854384304135224.post-70069442816305145282010-10-19T12:31:00.000+13:002010-10-19T12:31:59.657+13:00Upside Down Day<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: blue;">Today in Room 1 we had an upside down day.

<span style="color: #660000; font-size: large;">We added a translator so people who do not speak English can read our blog.</span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-size: large;">We also added a clock so that people would know what the time is. We are still learning to tell the time but we are pretty good at o'clock and half past now.</span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-size: large;">We have also added our cyber pet "Taki". Taki is a Takahe chick. Takahe are Endangered and are native to New Zealand. The adult birds are very colourful but their chicks are black and fluffy.</span>Room1OPS2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/03698368833103532137noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137854384304135224.post-54034000731918083972010-10-15T20:44:00.002+13:002010-10-15T20:44:38.998+13:00Cinderella Pictures<span style="font-size: large;">Check out our September "Cinderella" post.

The first one was creating an avatar. </span><br />

She is wearing a Nike cap because we have to wear hats outside during Terms 1 and 4 to protect ourselves from the sun. The Nike symbol also looks a bit like a Silver Fern which is worn by our top sports people and especially the Commonwealth Games Gold Medal winning New Zealand Silver Ferns Netball team.</span></div><br />

<br />
<span style="color: #274e13; font-size: large;">We are a class of 5 and 6 year olds who are learning how to blog. You should visit our blog because we write posts about what we are learning in class and include pictures and slideshows. We also like checking out other class blogs and leaving comments. In Term 3 we found out about Magnets and performed "Cinderella". In Term 4 we are finding out about what we need to do to help Endangered Species, especially the Takahe which was thought to be Extinct. </span>Room1OPS2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/03698368833103532137noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137854384304135224.post-50030746614464312062010-09-23T14:06:00.001+12:002010-10-15T20:43:06.327+13:00Cinderella<div style="text-align: center; width: 400px;"><embed height="300" src="http://w826.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http%3A%2F%2Fw826.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fzz185%2Fcchrystall%2F77ce04c1.pbw" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" wmode="transparent"></embed><a href="http://photobucket.com/slideshows" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn.gif" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; float: left;" /></a><a href="http://s826.photobucket.com/albums/zz185/cchrystall/?action=view&current=77ce04c1.pbw" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/slideshows/btn_viewallimages.gif" style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; float: left;" /></a></div><br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><span style="font-size: large;">Today we did a play about Cinderella. Mrs Ormsby played the piano. We only had one step sister because we only have four girls in our class. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-size: large;">The fairy godmother had a little helper called Buttons. Buttons is a really good dancer. He danced so fast that all the photos were blurred.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><span style="font-size: large;">Cinderella came to the ball on a scooter. During the ball scene our gentlemen had to dance with stiff looking ladies. </span></span><br />
<span style="color: magenta;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: red;">Justus was the reader. Room 7 and Room 8 came and watched us. Mums, Dads, and Koros came too. Emma, from the newspaper, watched us too. It was cool.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-size: large;">On Tuesday the Kindergarten children and some people from Beattie Homes came to watch us.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">On Friday we had a sausage sizzle to raise money for the people in Christchurch. There was a 7.1 earthquake which tore houses down. When we looked at the pictures we thought it looked like a bomb had hit the city.</span><br />
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">The cars got crushed. The houses got cracked and the farms had big trenches in them. </span>Room1OPS2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/03698368833103532137noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137854384304135224.post-9911673808418214672010-09-01T16:01:00.001+12:002010-09-02T18:39:37.813+12:00Duffy Came to Visit<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitdtbAU7Zq5mS-vSuqqFeRpRotGtgOPtA8yOIB1b8hdY0HwzStFjuUpZanm2pHEqvTVXW4eEPb962TO74mXljQEbq6p3KOELm5x5nR0oqFSLqjjO0fyQzvLtK8nNIgtIcWAtJqm9OhnFk/s1600/DSC05542.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitdtbAU7Zq5mS-vSuqqFeRpRotGtgOPtA8yOIB1b8hdY0HwzStFjuUpZanm2pHEqvTVXW4eEPb962TO74mXljQEbq6p3KOELm5x5nR0oqFSLqjjO0fyQzvLtK8nNIgtIcWAtJqm9OhnFk/s320/DSC05542.JPG" /></a></div><br />

We have a UFO ball in our class. When Mrs Chrystall gave it to us we were amazed and didn't know how it worked. We asked lots of questions about it.<br />
<br />
We really wanted to know what it looked like inside so Mrs Chrystall carefully cut away some of the plastic. Before she did this we had to PREDICT what it would have inside. We thought it would be a circuit with a battery, wires, a bulb and a buzzer. <br />
<br />
We can now see inside our UFO ball and it still works. We were right about it having a circuit but we were surprised at how the circuit looked. We learnt a new word too - soldering. Soldering is when the metal is melted onto the circuit board to connect the wires.Room1OPS2010http://www.blogger.com/profile/03698368833103532137noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-137854384304135224.post-81001464216735682922010-08-09T21:01:00.004+12:002010-08-09T21:06:00.645+12:00More Magnets and Electricity<span style="color: blue; font-size: large;">We had fun finding the answers to some of our questions.</span><br />

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;">Peter and Portia knew what a circuit was so they had to find out <span style="color: yellow;">How do you make a circuit with one bulb and two cells (batteries)?</span></span></div><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;">They knew that a circuit had to be complete before the bulb would light. They made the bulb glow by using cells, wires, a bulb holder and a bulb.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7a0soAotNuFR8xts3AXwWtaYpKsxh0zxREW5jPo-77URFs0WqW9tipCZIte4EqQiN26TSlxOLDr-5Ti-hd-f2bcvod7CKmPrW3PMNYVzZyBBSljAJFErj_Fzo-e9N28LuOJZ2fzk684M/s1600/DSC05305.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" bx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7a0soAotNuFR8xts3AXwWtaYpKsxh0zxREW5jPo-77URFs0WqW9tipCZIte4EqQiN26TSlxOLDr-5Ti-hd-f2bcvod7CKmPrW3PMNYVzZyBBSljAJFErj_Fzo-e9N28LuOJZ2fzk684M/s320/DSC05305.JPG" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;">Mrs Chrystall showed Peter how to make a complete circuit without using the bulb holder. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;">We looked at the inside of the bulb. We could see a squiggly piece of wire that connected the two metal prongs. We noticed that it is this wire that glows.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
<span style="color: red; font-size: large;">Why does the squiggly wire glow?</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><span style="color: blue; font-size: large;">We found the answer to a lot of our questions but now we have more questions we want to find the answers too.

<span style="color: blue; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-size: large;">We designed a fair test to find out "What is in the metal that makes things magnetic?"</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNlWYki9I-K9FaXfpXQ2PFKtsK7MMWl0cX50drDzKFcUxBTJBKz5xfY6RAkYWsWcmTaOpbkHhJrGd7I1X8nawarwx5TDd46nXZ8oYEewhtlghacz8dVl-81SQa871i5xAw_Uxr4-9IxzA/s1600/DSC05235.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" bx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNlWYki9I-K9FaXfpXQ2PFKtsK7MMWl0cX50drDzKFcUxBTJBKz5xfY6RAkYWsWcmTaOpbkHhJrGd7I1X8nawarwx5TDd46nXZ8oYEewhtlghacz8dVl-81SQa871i5xAw_Uxr4-9IxzA/s320/DSC05235.JPG" /></a></div><br />
<span style="color: blue;">We had two container lids of sand. The black sand was from Kawhia and the other sand is river sand from our school sandpit.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">The containers were the same size even though they don't look it in this picture.</span><br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">The circular magnet picked up a lot more of the Kawhia sand. We also noticed that the Kawhia sand was still a little wet.</span> <br />

<span style="color: blue;">We did the test (experiment) again using a bar magnet instead of a circular magnet.</span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;">The bar magnet only picked up a little of the river sand. All the pieces were black.</span> <br />

<span style="color: blue;"></span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;">The bar magnet picked up a lot more of the black sand from Kawhia.</span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;">We also noticed that the end of the bar magnet picked up a lot more sand than the middle of the magnet.</span> <br />

<span style="color: blue;">It was easy to see that the black sand was magnetic. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;">Mrs Chrystall told us that the black sand has a thing called iron in it and it is the iron in the metal that makes things magnetic.</span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span> <br />
<span style="color: blue;"></span> <br />
