My 2021 blogger

Welcome to my 2021 blogger, my name Is Kaydee I am in Te Puawai this year.  There is 19 pupils in our class and we are all year 5 students.  Our new teachers name is Mrs Jujnovich.  Our teacher aid is Yvette.

Pobble writing - narrative

Story starter!

The wind rushed through her hair as she descended the mountain at great speed. For most children this would be an exhilarating, even terrifying experience, but for Kaydee it was just an ordinary journey to school.

She was having lots of fun until suddenly the clip on top of the wire that holds her broke, Kaydee went flying down and hit the ground next to the house with a big thump. She screamed for help but then she realized that the house was empty oh no. But then she remembered she had a rope tied to her bag. She quickly untied it and tied it to the sip line and slid down to school even though she was in quite a lot of pain she made it to school just in time to start learning.

This Morning

Getting out of bed

I dashed out of bed, chucked my clothes on and ran to the kitchen with the smell of sizzling bacon.  I packed my bag well, stumbling around the house.  My annoying brother gave me a BIG fright, that was very annoying.  I scrubbed my teeth and scruffed my hair up into a bundle.  I packed my delicious lunch and put it into my bag.  After all that I finally got to sit and relax.

Breakfast

For my breakfast I had crunchy burnt toast with dripping wet soggy butter.  And crunchy wet yummy cereal with lots of milk and lots of crunchiness and sogginess.  Also wet, crunchy, soggy, and sugary weet-bix.

Travelling to school

I put my bag in the front of the car and jumped on the seat,slapped my seat belt on and we were off.  The first thing I saw was a pretty colorful bird.  Then I heard birds tweeting and cicadas buzzing and yet I could still hear the dogs barking.  Oh gosh!

Paddle boarding at lake ngatu

Last week Te Manga,Te Puawai and Te Kauru went paddle boarding at Lake Ngatu for a fun activity. We walked there so we could get more fit and not be inside all day. The first thing we did was have some Kai. Then the first group went out my turn was the second group. We had to say he ha so that we were all in time. When we got that my group sang school songs to still be in time we also played some games. On the way back we got to jump of I did a front flip that was very fun.After all the groups went paddle boarding we got to have kai or a swim or play in the sand I played I the water me and my friends played tag I kept slipping over though we had about half an hour then we had to get and walk back to school. 

   

Mad science

WALT predict and explain what is happening during our science experiments.

On Friday last week Te Manga did some science experiments. The 3 things we did was crawling colours,salt volcano and magic milk.My favourite one was the salt volcano because all you need is salt oil and water.What you need to is put some water in a cup then poor some oil in gently and slowly otherwise it will go all bubbly. After that you put a little bit of salt, but only do it little by little because if you do it fast it could spill everywhere. Then the salt goes to the bottom and make's bubbles pop up.

My second favourite thing was the magic milk Because all you need is milk food colouring and a little box.The first thing you need to do is put a little bit of milk into the box then put a few colours in to the milk . You would also need a stick and some Liquid with those dip the stick into the liquid then into the milk and the colours will spread everywhere.If you keeped dipping it and moving the stick around it will turn into one colour.That was why it was one of my favourites. when we finished we had to tip it in a bin all of it together looked so cool.
