Matariki Celebrations


We celebrated Matariki last week. We ran down the hill with our kites and Mrs T  took  a picture. Some of us came to school early on Friday to have our breakfast together.

Chatterbox Chickens

We used  a  plastic cup, a  string  and  a sponge. Then  we  put  water  in  the  cup and we  got the  sponge. Next  we  put  the sponge  on the string  and  pulled it  up. Then  it  mad a  noise.  The  noise  sounds  like  'cockadoodledoo'.   It  hurts  my  head.

Sound

We did an experiment to see how sound waves work. I had to hit the balls hard with a box. It made energy. The balls hit each other and travelled along the floor.

Science experiment


We want to know do you hear sounds as soon they are made. We put flour in the balloon. Then we popped it and the rest of the class stood a long way off. They saw the flour come out before they heard the pop. That proves that you don't always hear sounds straight away.

School Disco





  
I went to the school disco with Janeille and Vichena. We dressed up like princesses. The taniwha had fun dancing with all the kids.

The science of sound

We  are  learning  how to do science about sound. We put a nut in the balloon and blew it up. We shook it round and round and the nut made some vibrations inside. It sounded like a buzzing bee.
