Christmas Acrostic Poem

Christmas
Christmas presents
Happy times
Ringing bells
I want a mini pig
Singing Christmas carols
Travelling to see relatives
Making Christmas cards
Around the Christmas tree goes my cat
Star on top of the tree

Haiku Poems

Ice
Freezing cold water
So cold hypothermia
You can die of it                                           In class we have been writing haiku poems. Haiku poems                                                                        have different amounts of syllables in each line. The first                                                                          line and last line has 5 syllables and the middle line has                                                                          7.

Our first week we practised how to hold a hockey stick, juggling and different types of dribbling. Last week we practised our grip which is how to hold a hold a hockey stick, our juggling and dragging.

Pūmanawa

The first thing I learnt was child's pose and downward dog. My favourite thing we learnt is headstands, I do them at home a lot.

Ocean Poster

In our class we did posters about a ocean. We got to chose from Pacific Ocean, Southern Ocean, Indian Ocean, Atlantic Ocean and Arctic Ocean. I chose the Pacific Ocean, it stretches from the Arctic Ocean to the Southern Ocean. The ocean's western border touches Asia and Australia while its eastern border touches North and South America.

Science Experiment

Today we did a science experiment about ice, salt and dye. Each table got a bowl and three round ice balls. Miss Drummond pored red dye over the ice balls, when she pored the dye we had to write down what we noticed and if we had any questions. Next she pored  green dye and again we had to record what we noticed and if we have any questions. The last thing we did was put salt on it, when we did that it gave it a very rough texture. After we did all of that we went outside and each table got to throw one of the ice balls. We found out that big ice ball + a lot of salt = big smash.
