My goal for this year is to be a great leader. I am good at swimming and maths. The thing I really enjoy is baking, Running, and biking.

Taj Mahal


                                             Taj Mahal. Coloured by Ariki

                               Original photo of Taj Mahal

I changed the original photo of Taj Mahal to make the building brown so it looks like a rustic version of the Taj Mahal. Also i made the trees bright green so they stand out more.

Crazy Flip

Today we made pancakes in cooking tech. We had some skill focuses. One was separating egg yolks and whites. Then we had to try and flip the pancakes on the pan from one side to the other. At first it was scary, but we got used to it. My first flip was one then the next one was a double flip. The flavour was banana and choc-chip. It was fun.

Incredibox Music

Today we were learning about making our own music
I found it hard to make music on each of the three sites. 
It was easy to catch the rhythm.
If I did this again I would try to make music on the site Turning Art into Music.

Listen to my Incredibox music here

How Yeast Works

Today we learnt about tall tweets. We used shapes and the explorer tool and inserted off the explore tool. Mrs Torrie had got the idea from the cool experiment that we had done in class with the reaction that the yeast gave in the different types of water.
Our 'gif' shows the steps of our experiment and the process of how yeast works.

Yeast Experiment

Today we did an experiment with yeast because we are learning about Fungi, and yeast is a type of fungi. We filled up four bottles with water of different temperatures.. We added yeast and sugar, next we stuck four balloons on top of the bottles. We waited to see which bottle would create the most gas and blow up the balloon.
The bottle with water of 32 degrees, worked the best. In my hypotheses, I guessed 51 degrees would work the best.

The Three Billy Goats Gruff

I have been reading The Three Billy Goats Gruff. My favourite goat is the biggest billy goat because he does big stomps and said "I've got two spears to poke your eyeballs out your ears. And I'll crush you to bits!" They get to fat so they can't walk. The troll has a nose longer then a straight stick and eyes as big as a dinner plates with 6 earring on the left side and 8 on the right ear.
