Script

Frank : please stand for judge Archie ( everybody stands)

Jimi plays the  NZ national anthem

Archie : please be seated (everybody sits down)

Archie: last tuesday, on the 11 of september 2019, at 9:33 and 14 seconds pm Lucas the grandma accused the wolf of kidnaping her.  So today, on the 20th of september, we head to court to discuss this.

Archie: The wolf has been rightly accused of kidnapping, your statement please Grandma.

Grandma : I want to sue the wolf for  kidnapping me. He came to my house with one job and one job only, to kidnap me. With evidence of and broken door and wolf footprints leading to my bed. And when I woke up I was in the woods with a scar on my head. 

Wolf: I objected the was no smashed door what are you talking about. She’s obviously delusional like, just look at her. How old is she?

 Lawyer: my client  is not lying there is now evidence that my client smashed a door he entered through the door, I strongly believe that you are lying Grandma. And the footprints are your Cheetah slippers.

Archie : Stop you are right about there now evidence about the door but there is a police statement about the footprints leading up to the bed but we don’t know if they are slippers or the Wolf’s footprints. Now could we invite the witness up to the now  stand please.  

Jimi: I was there at the time walking my dog through the woods and then I heard a window smash and I looked to investigate. When I got there and I saw a little bit of wolf fur on the front broken doorstep and I immediately ran behind a tree and called the police.

Grandmas Lawyer: As I was making a cup of coffee grandma was taking a nap then she hears  something break down the door then before she knew it, she had been kidnapped. It was a terrible seen to see I was terrified.

Yes but the wolf still kidnaped the grandma wolf why did you kidnap grandma.  

I did not. I was simply asking you if you wanted to buy some cookies for a  fundraiser. I knocked on the door but no one answered I could hear something. The door accidently broke then the Grandma followed me out of the house to try and get me. 

I have come to an agreement this has been a misunderstanding. Grandma woke up and chased the wolf but she fell over and hit her head.  That’s why she went back to sleep, and why she has a scar on her head. So you are both off the hook But its not over if we find some more evidence. writi

  

Screencastify

This week we had to do a screencastify about what I am learning about in maths, here is my screencastify.


here is my screencastify

Another week another piece of writing.

How has technology changed the way we learn?

 Your school probably uses nothing but computers but let's take it back to the olden days, what did schools use in the olden days? In the olden days they used typewriters. Typewriters are a funny looking thing it’s like a piece of wood with keys on it. 


But how has technology changed from then and now? Nowadays we use laptops and Chromebooks, but it was much different  back then. Some people think that using Chromebooks are bad for your learning but some people think the opposite, they think that it is good for your learning. Another thing that has changed the way we have learned are printers.

Printers have changed the way we have learned a lot, they didn't have printers in the olden days in fact they didn’t have anything in the olden days. Printers are amazing when you finish writing your speech you probably printed it out and stuck it on some cards. But printers can do much more, printers can photo copy and print things with heaps of colour. But the most important thing that has changed our learning is the space we work in. 

The space we work in at our school is amazing, the space we work in today has changed the way I work it so great having a nice school. In the olden days everyone had to work in one specific place and on a pacific desk that would be horrific. 

I hope you have learned how technology has changed since then and now. What do you think do you like the way the technology was then or now. see you next week.

How does a cake rise?

This week for writing we have been learning to do explanation writing so here is one of my writing pieces.

1. How to do gymnastics 
2. How to make a batch of cookies 
3. How to find diamonds in minecraft (survival) 
4. How does a bike work
5. How much does a cake rise - THE WINNER 

Plan 

The cake rises from the baking powder

 The baking powder are little air bubbles that increase in size when it is in the oven. Going to explain how a cake rises and why your cake won’t rise. 

Title - I will tell them about how does a cake rise. 

Introduction - corn flour makes a cake rise.

Main reason - the cake rises from the air bubbles increasing in size because of the heat from the oven.

The second reason - how much does a cake rise. 

The reason behind the second reason -  the cake rises ¼ of an inch. 

Conclusion - hope you know how a cake rises and how much does a cake rise. 

How does a cake rise. 

Cakes are mostly used on special occasions or sometimes just used to show people that you are a good cook. I have always wondered how does a cake rise that is why I will be telling you how does a cake rise.  Some of you probably think that the oven is magic and the cake rises because of the oven. But it is actually from what you put in the cake, the cake rises from something called baking powder, but how does the baking powder make the cake rise.   

Baking powder looks like flour but is actually much different. If you have rubbed your hands on baking powder it’s really smooth but their are tiny tiny little air bubbles in baking powder. When the cake is placed in the oven the heat of the oven makes the air bubbles increase in size and the cake rises. If you cut your cake in half you will probably see decently sized air bubbles in the cake.  

But what if your cake doesn't rise? There are two reasons why your cake doesn’t rise, one of the reasons is you didn't put enough baking powder in your cake or you didn't put any at all. The second  reason why your cake won't rise is your oven isn't at the right temperature. How much does a cake rise the average length for a cake to rise is ¼ of an inch. But some cakes are different and some recipes are different so some cakes rise differently but the average cake rises ¼ of an inch. 

My winter sports team

Winter sports. 

Over the winter sport season me and my rugby team played a lot of rugby games, made up of year fives and year six students. Our rugby team turned out really good, the first rugby game we played was against Te papa school. I thought that we wouldn't stand a change but in the end we came out on top. In about the middle of the season me and my team moved to the A grade and there was only 4 teams in the A grade including us.


In the A grade the games were much harder than the games we were playing before we were in the A grade. The fist game we played in the A grade we got smashed bye the Shirley bulldogs, that was a game we would remember. The last game we ever played for the season was against hill view school, it was a really hard game but in the end hill view school came out on top. From the first game to the last game we have improve so much. My fitness has improved a lot since the first game to the last game, all so I think I have got slightly faster when we started rugby.

Does your school have winter sports?
