Tech

 At Tech group 3 were learning about our planets most important but not notice as much as it should be, the Earthworm.

We learnt that Earthworms are so important and valuable because if we didn't have Earthworms the world that we live in would be so dry and harder for our plants to stay alive which means we can't make fresh fruits and veggies, I know some of you would like that but you wouldn't be able to eat the strawberry ice creams that we love or eat your favourite chocolate and much more foods that we love and couldn't live without and if you can't live without this then it should be the same with worms so if you see a worm dying make sure to help it out because with your good deed we will have more of a great life and more fresh foods.

Technology

 Today room 7 and 1 went to Tamaki College for tech, we got into our groups and went to our classes.

In science we talked about plastic again and if it was bad or not, we were given a sheet that had lines of words that were talking about plastic and if they were bad or good. Some had good quotes and them and some had bad quotes but the majority of it was spoken and the answer was that plastic is bad and will kill of planet if don't stop using it.

Back at Science

 Today room 7, room 1, and St Pius X students went to Tamaki college for tech, group 3 went to science with Mrs. Sharma and we learnt about plastic and by now everyone know what plastic is but do you know what it does to our sea creatures? and that is what we learnt today.

did you know a 19 day old bird had eating a record making amount of plastic because of the rubbish and single-use plastic bags that we throw away, Seven billion tons of rubbish and plastic is thrown away and as more people enter this world the amount of rubbish we have now will triple rapidly unless we start to reduce the plastic that we use and leave behind for the wind to take.

We were ask if plastic was good for us and by the look of the information that we have been given of course we would say no, but if plastic is bad what do we replace it with? the answer is reusable bags! It well decrease the lost of marine life and save the planet little by little.

It was time to go so we brought in our books and left with the knowledge we were given and went back to our schools.

 

    

Tech: Science

 Today at tech group 3 went to science and our teacher was Mrs. Sharma. we learnt about science and scientist, in science we talked about the science branches and here are some of them biology, physics, and chemistry.

We learnt that biologist study humans, animals, plants, and the environments in which they live. A physicist is always thinking about the properties of the natural world like atom formations or gravity and develops scientific theories and models that help them understand and explain it. 

The last one from the science branches was chemistry, it is the study of matter, basically anything that has mass and takes up space, and the changes that matter can go through when it is in a different environments and conditions.

Winter Is Near!!!

Now that we have moved to level 2 New Zealand citizens are feeling the last draught of Autumn come though, Now that Autumn is gone and is waiting for another year to come winter is feels way bigger than a draught so people will be getting sick more often, so what you need to do is keep warm and when you feel a cough coming up to stay home because it could be a cold or sometimes could be more than this so if you do feel like this stay home and keep your family and you warm.

Things to do: One thing you could do is learn/study more so that you don't lose your learning from just coming back to school. You could eat or drink things that are warm like hot chocolate, or tea (if your like me) and if you want you could have hot tasty soup. One last thing you could do is get lots and lots of cosy blankets so you don't get cold at night.

A little fact:June 1st marks the official start of winter.Many people believe that the Earth is farthest from the sun in the winter. Although this makes sense, it’s not true. In the Northern Hemisphere, winter happens when Earth is closest to the sun- how weird!

this everything you should do and a little fact to know before you go, so keep safe and keep warm all the time.

Back At School

Today was the first day back to school and at the start I thought that it would be exciting and ready to learn again but actually it was boring because I thought that we would do the things we did before this lockdown but it seems that everything has changed but it's good to know that our community is doing everything to keep safe from this virus.

We had lunch and it was good just we had to play separately and we couldn't go play with our friends so if I could change one thing it would be nothing because we have been doing good lately so I wouldn't want to change the way we live.

At the end we all went back home but it was kind of different because the students that had siblings would go first now and then the other students went last but other than that going back to school was good and hope it will get better everyday.
