Volleyball and Science Fair

 Blog by TeRehua

This week we played volleyball with Sport Tasman. We learnt to put our hands together to hit the ball over the net. We also learnt to spike the ball with our fingertips.

I thought it was fun. 

Last week we had a science fair at school. Mum came to see our class catapults. Room 5 had lots of different science stuff. It was cool to look at all the sciencey stuff.

 Vanessa, the tennis coach, came to teach  us some rally skills and some reaction skills. 

We stopped during math to go have a lesson and we got in pairs and learned some skills!

 Last week we had dance with Jari and lots of parents came and it was very fun.

For the last few weeks we have been doing winter tournament practice. We are practising hockey, netball and football.

This week we will start making ice cream. We have already learned about germs.

Icecream

 We have been learning about making Ice Cream. Our goals for this project are to make the creamiest and flavourable and scoopable icecream. 

We are also cultivating bacteria on petri dishes. We took swabs from the computer mouse, hands and feet to see what kind of bacteria would grow.

 The Puss ‘n’ Gumboots play last week was great.  I liked it because it was funny and silly.

Big Jumps

 

This week some kids have been making big jumps for their bikes. I have been watching some kids do some really big jumps on their bikes. I think it is really brave to do big jumps.

This week for our waiata we have been singing the gumboot song. It is really funny!
