Katelyn's reflection

Reflection - Week One - Term 4

Kia ora everyone this is my reflection for week one.

What I have enjoyed this week: I have enjoyed doing athletics because long jump and high jump were soooooooo fun and because I qualified in both of them!!! I am so proud of myself. :) I have also enjoyed playing with my friends because we all made up the game and we try to make it funnier.

What I found difficult: I found maths challenging because it was different and harder than usual and we had ordered fractions. Here is a picture.

What I have learnt this week: I have learnt that some people think the earth is flat but it is not. What shape do you think the earth is. Write your answer down in the comments below. I will comment back and say what the shape of the earth.

What I want to work on next week: I want to work on space and learn how the milky way was created because I like the milky way chocolate.

Conservation Week- Share your nature story

For conservation week some of us entered a competition to share our nature stories. We all had a lot of fun writing about different experiences we have had in nature. We were then lucky enough to be invited to an event to celebrate these adventures. Some of us got certificates and Jackson even won a prize!

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP)

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP)

Last week we had to research The Great Pacific Garbage Patch and this week we had to put that information in a newsletter. I liked this because I  learnt what The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is and what it does to the environment. 

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch 

The Great Pacific Garbage Patch which is GPGP. The GPGP is estimated surface of 1.6 million square kilometres, that's like three times of France. The GPGP is halfway between Hawaii and California. The GPGP was only discovered in 1993. GPGP is full of waste/rubbish.

What does it do to animals?

Have you ever thought about what the plastic does to the animals? When the plastic goes into the ocean, the animals think it is food. Turtles think that plastic bag a jellyfish so they eat it then they get sick and sadly die.

What is in the GPGP?

In the GPGP there is soo much plastic in it. It has big and little pieces of plastic. Because of all the plastic it is forming an island.

Katelyn's Measurement slide

We made slides to show the different directions and turns we can make.

Friday Beach Time

On the last day of term we went down to the beach to enjoy the winter sunshine. We had a great time working together to build huts and trying to stop the water from destroying our huts.

Looking out to the sea trying to see if another wave is going to crash on
 our huts.
