Shire 7 Week 2 Term 3 2020

Why do things float?

Shire 7 learned about density and displacement, I wonder if you remember and can explain it to a friend?
Then we designed and created a raft. We were given 10 straws, 4 rubber bands, some modelling clay, 5 meters of string and masking tape. Our design brief said we needed a flag and that the raft needed to stay afloat for at least 30 seconds holding as many 10 cent coins as possible. Here are some photos of us making our rafts.

Scary dinosaur
Haunted house
Gets eaten by something


Once upon a time there  was a dinosaur called bob he lived in a haunted house and one day he went outside for some fresh air and he saw a big big other dinosaur and he ran to the lake and he didn't know what to do. The big dinosaur came up to him and said nothing. The smaller dinosaur looked relieved and sat down by the lake. But then the bigger dinosaur came up behind him and gobbled him up crunch crunch “yummy yum” he said and the bigger dinosaur walked away. ~THE END~


Philosophy 

What was it like moving to level 3 ?  


We went to my nana’s house  in morrinsville at level 4 and at level 3 we went back to our house in auckland this is because we were allowed  to drive to another place. I got to play on my trampoline and we went to the beach a couple of times.
