If I had a BILLION dollars to create a boat

If I could create or build my own boat I would like to have a spa pool or a swimming pool on my boat. I would also like to have a food room in my boat where can pick what they eat and how much they can eat. I will also have a drink and hot drink bar where people can get drinks they want, but there will be no alcohol. I would also like to have two rooms to spare. One room will be my bedroom, and I will also have my own bathroom. Then the other room will be a relaxation room with a massaging station, and also a resting station which has a lot of beds that are soft and also has some relaxation chairs that are soft and they rock. This is how I would design/create my own boat.

This is my dream boat.

We made homemade ice cream

Today in my literacy class Mrs Stickland told us that we were making homemade ice cream sandwiches. When she said that I was so excited to make ice cream because I had never made ice cream before. She also told us that we had to be in buddies so I went with Syriah.

Then Mrs Stickland told us that we had to go for her each time we needed to do the next step. Then me and Syriah went to go and get the ice, then we had to go get the salt. Once we did those two things we went and put milk in another bag, with also sugar and vanilla essence.

Then we had to put the bag with the milk in it inside the bag with the ice. Then we had to shake the bag of ice with the milk inside. Then Mrs Stickland told us that when it’s finished we get two cookies each, then we had to put the ice cream on it like a sandwich.

Castaway story

Walt: Write from the 1st person.

I just washed up on an beautiful island, it was so scary. I was soaking wet, and I was so cold I felt so lonely. I decided to explore this beautiful and huge island to find help, but it was no use. What should I do I’m lonely?, I’m so hungry.

I thought to myself I should probably make me some shelter to sleep. So I decided to explore the island for some resources. While I was walking around I found some fronds on the ground I also found some sticks, small big and thick sticks so that was good. Suddenly I found some very strong flax. So I thought I had enough resources. So I went back to the raft, and used a lot of sticks to hold up my leaves. So after my sticks were standing up I next then tied the leaves together with the flax. And then I tied the leaves and the sticks together so that the leaves act as the roof.

So then I made my dry and big shelter, so then I went to look for some materials to help me catch some food. So I got some big sharp sticks, pointy rocks and also some flax so I can catch the fish. But then I used my flax,stick and a shell to make a spear for me to catch a fish, by using the flax to tie the shell to the stick. So then I got my spear and went to the sea to look for some fish. But then I found a good fish in the sea and so I waited for the right moment, then I stabbed the fish with my sharp stick. Then I went and took my fish under my big and dry shelter so that I could make a fire with sticks and rocks to cook my fish, while my fish was cooking I went and took my rock and my spear to get some coconuts and mangos. By the time I got back from looking for some fruits and coconuts I saw that my fish was cooked so then I used a big frond to make a plate for my fish. Then I took my sharp and thin rock to cut up my fish for me to eat.

Few hours later, I decided that I’ve been stranded on this lonely and beautiful island to long so I must create a signal for people to see me so I can get rescued from this huge island. So I decided that in the daytime that I should lay out a lot of rocks to make the signal of SOS, and then at night time I will make a  huge fire for people flying in the air to see. For the fire I needed to find some sticks, rocks and green leaves, when I found these materials I then put the rocks in a circle then I put two sticks next to each other then i put some green leaves in between the sticks. Then I used another stick to rub in between the sticks where the green leaves were.

My signals have been on for like 2 days and still I’m not rescued why oh why? So I decided to go back to my shelter and have a quick nap so I can have more energy for my signals. 1 hour later, I’m awake now let’s get my signals ready again. When suddenly I heard a helicopter but luckily  my signals were done so they would’ve seen it. “HEEEELLPP” I yelled, and luckily they saw my signal and they came lower to rescue me. “YAY” I’m rescued” I said. I was so relieved I got off that beautiful but lonely island, and also I was happy that I could eat whatever I wanted instead of always eating fish and crab. So I was happy that I was home.

Task Description:

I had to write a story about me being stranded of a beautiful island. So what I mean is I had to write a story about me being in the movie Castaway. So I had to write a story about it then post it on my blog with a title, WALT, task description and also labels.

Term 2 Immersion assembly

This term our topic is Now that’s thinking. And today we were sitting in our assembly but it was our immersion assembly. We were learning about what the topic is for this term, and we also found out what the other teams are learning and what we are learning as well it was so fun.

This terms topic is about technology and how it has changed from back in the days. Team 1-3 are learning about how to make kites and they are looking at all the old kites supplies that was used, they are also learning about Matariki. And team 5 is learning to fix Pt England and make it more tidier and more beautiful. Mr Burt also showed us all the chromebooks that was used back in the days at Pt England and then the chromebooks we have now. But this term is going to be fun because I also get to see the other team's work and what their learning.

This term awesome Team 4 is learning what kinds of technology did maori use before pakeha arrived in New Zealand. I think that we will be learning about all the amazing types of technology that the maori used before pakeha came to New Zealand.  I also think we are learning what the technology is like now with the pakeha in New Zealand. Team 4’s movie this term was about how our really funny and creative teachers were trying to figure out what we were going to do for this term and also what we can learn about relating to this terms topic, Now that’s thinking.

This I want to learn what kinds of methods they used to make their shelter and waka’s. I also hope we get to try and make our own waka’s but not huge for us to sail in just small ones. I also hope we get to try maori technology from before the pakeha came to New Zealand. But I don’t really mind if we don’t because it’s fine, because at least I get to learn so much about what kinds of technology did maori use before the pakeha arrived in New Zealand.

I think that this terms topic is going to be so amazing because I love doing things including technology. I also think that this is going to be fun because I like learning about old technology and I can’t wait to find out what we will be learning this term. I also want to see what the other classes and teams are doing and check their blogs.
