Matariki Celebration

Matariki Celebration

Amazing matariki celebration ever.

On 24 of july 2020 in glen innes school we had a matariki celebration. We had a hungi, we made matariki posters and we got to go and visit other classrooms posters. Room 2,4 first came and visited us. They looked at our posters then Mr Hendricks came into our classroom and told us how proud he was about our posters. There are 9 sisters but most people think there are 7. The reason why you can't see the other two is because they are hiding away.  We sang a song in maori which is called the matariki macarena. We went to room 4 and they sang it then we sang together with them. We went to all the classes in our school and they told us more about matariki. 

 We went to room 10,11,7,6,2 and 4. Their one was incredible. They made it neat and tidy and we were able to understand it. On the last break everyone came to the hall to eat the food that the cook islands made. It was chicken,vegetables, potato,and kumara. It was delicious and our drink we had was milk. It was the end of school  and the bell rang. We all went home and we had a fantastic day because we got to look at other classes  posters and impress our parents.

Our Solar System

This week I have learnt about solar system and I can say the names of all planets in order without looking. 

Sun is a star.
Other planets in order are:  Murcury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune

Planets a amazing and so incredible. 

My Sun

My Sun

The best sun I have ever made

Today in room 8 2020 I have made a sun by using paper, scissors, glue, and pencil. First you have to cut the paper in three halves. Second you have to fold two papers. Third you have to fold the paper again like a fan and make sharp sides .

When you're done you cut the sides like a sharp fence. After you use glue to glue both of the sharp paper together and the long paper you use it to make a circle for the sun's face. you can draw the eyes, nose, ears and mouth.

Well you can teach your siblings how to make a sun or teach your parents how to make one. You can make lots of suns and stick it on a paper and color it. I felt Incredible because I was so up for making a sun and showing it to my parents. But it was fantastic  making a sun with my teacher and room 8 learners.

Hand Washing

My Mask

My Mask

The best mask I have ever made.

On Monday 25th of May 2020, I made a paper towel mask. Mask is something which people wear to cover their full face or part of their face. People wear masks to protect themselves from viruses or airborne diseases.

Our teacher taught us how to make a mask by using a paper towel, rubber bands, and a stapler. First you have to fold the paper towel like a fan. Second, you have to fold the sides of the mask. Third, you have to put the two rubber bands on the sides. Fourth you have to staple it.

When you're done making your mask you can wear it or either give it to your siblings to wear. You can teach your siblings how to make it and you don't have to buy one. When I made the mask I was like how can you make a mask by using paper towels, a rubber band, and a stapler. But I felt excited when we were going to make it. When I saw my completed mask I felt like showing it to my parents as I was so amazed myself.

Lockdown

It was my first time I experienced a lockdown!

Lockdown is a state of isolation or restricted access instituted as a security measure. We started lock down on 26th of March 2020. Coronavirus is a disease which makes people feel unwell and sick. Another name for coronavirus is COVID19. The government came up with 4 levels and in level 4 we all had to stay home as there was a lockdown. In total there were 1,149 people who were infected with the virus in New Zealand.

Essential workers were the only people allowed to work. They include people like doctors, nurses, supermarket people, police officers, firefighters, St Johns and the rescue workers who were only working throughout the lockdown. There were non essential workers who were to stay home and it includes people like teachers, dental people and construction workers and so on. They didn't work because the Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern only wanted a few people to work so everybody in New Zealand doesn't get the virus.

My family and I were playing board games and walking around our place. My sister, mum and I were busy cleaning up the house and watching tv. I was doing my hangout lessons, my sister was doing her hangout lessons, my mum was doing her hangout and my dad normally went to work. After my mum was done with her hangout she cooked food for my family and she made yummy food. I felt like the lockdown was going to be long but it was amazing staying at home. 

Covid 19 Poster

Today I learned about covid 19 and I wrote about it. covid is a disease that can make people sick and die. we need to stop the virus from coming to us we need to fight the virus like keeping yourself safe and do not  cough at people. do not touch your face because your mouth and your nose hs germs in it and it can make you sick.
