Sleepover!

t our cousin's house. When we got there it was late and we were wearing our P.Js. We had some delicious chocolate cake our aunty made. After That we watched our cousin's play Fortnite on the PS4. After playing fortnite they let me have a turn to play a game. I chose Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. My cousin's were very good at playing it so we then played TEKKEN 7. It was kind of like  Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, but you only choose one player. My favorite characters were, Lucky Chloe, Akumaa, Alisa, and Eddy. There were rage combo's for each character. I had to get used to the buttons on the controller. After that we had to go sleep. The next day we woke up and had milo and bread then played Tekken 7 again and then we helped our parents make a big lunch. When the food was ready some of our family came over. We played with our cousins and had karaoke using the karaoke player. The food was sweet and sour, fish and chips, Chocolate cake, potato salad, crab salad, and chop suey.  

Going To H&M!

Yesterday I went to H&M with My mum and sisters. We went there for the sale. Since it was getting cold when my mum goes work she got told about the 7$ sale at H&M. The 7$ sale was for scarfs. We bought a lot of scarfs. We even saw some warm headbands for 3$. In the store they had an escalator and elevator. I went up the elevator to go up to the Kid's  clothing area. It has a lot of mirrors even in the elevator there is a mirror and it is clear so you can see were you are going up the elevator. H&M had a lot of customers. H&M is very big it has a clothing area for Men, Ladies, and also Kids. We didn't Just buy scarfs we also bought jackets. There was a very long line if you go to the fitting room and also if you want to buy clothing. There was also these little cup bottles for children and umbrellas with unicorns on them. H&M doesn't just have clothes it has phone cases, accessories, etc.  

QUIZ!

LI: To learn about the different body systems. 
We had to do a quiz with our inquiry group this is all the information. This term LS1 got ready for the big quiz at the end of the term. We did all these tasks and earnt all these credits in our groups. We had to get the credits by doing tasks based on what organ system we are doing. The topic was about organ systems in our bodies. We first learnt the nervous system. The nervous system is a system that makes up of different organs and parts. They are the nerves, neurons, Central nervous system, Peripheral Nervous system, brain, brainstem, spinal cord, autonomic and somatic. The Central nervous system and the Peripheral Nervous system have different parts. Another way to say them is CNS and PNS. CNS include the brain, brainstem, and spinal cord. The peripheral includes the nerves autonomic and somatic. After the nervous system was the digestive. This was my favourite part. This includes the Mouth, esophagus, stomach, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, small intestine, large intestine, appendix, rectum, and the anus. It includes what you eat. This system helps you gain nutrients. These all make up the Digestive system.  The respiratory system includes the lungs, Trachea, Bronchi, Bronchioles, Alveoli. This is the system that helps your body and body organs have oxygen. Then the Circulatory system the heart pumps blood through blood vessels arteries. Heart is the only organ in circulatory system. Arteries take blood away from heart,veins bring blood to the heart.capillaries are  very tiny after arteries they go everywhere in body thats where muscles get oxygen and nutrients organs pass carbon dioxide through capillaries. There are 4 main vessel of the heart they are,SVC (Superior vena cava), Pulmonary Artery,Pulmonary vein & Aorta. Main artery coming out heart is the aorta.

ASB Getwise Session

LI: To learn how to save money.

Jayden from ASB get wise came to our school to teach us about saving money. He came to talk to us about CASH goals. He taught that if you want to buy something make it realistic for you age. For example, if you want to by a car when your yr 4-5 you should keep it realistic so by something you can actually get. We learnt that if you want to by something you have to be clear, if you want to buy some shoes you need to keep it clear, what size, what colour, the price, and more. Keeping it clear is like making sure you get what you really want. To do that you have to take action. Get a job for yr 4-5. You could sell stuff like your old clothes or stuff you don't own like making pies, food and selling more, you could also do neighbourhood jobs like help cleaning the gardens.   When you get the money you need you save for the future to get more money by taking action. When you save you have to know how long it will take until you reach your goal to buy those shoes. So if you get 10 a week and you spend no money and your shoes are 100 dollars it will be 10 weeks until you have reached your goal. That is CASH goals.

Matariki

We all learnt some new facts about matariki. I found out that Matariki is a Maori new years and that Matariki is the mother of the sisters.
