Kia Ora Bloggers,

Have you ever written a online news article?

On Tuesday in Cyber smart our teacher showed us what things we need to check online to see if the news is fake or not. So we made our own news article  about camp or you didn’t went to camp a news article about what we did at school that week.  We had to include a URL, sponsored content,  advertisements (Ads), comments, byline, title and an image.

It is a lot of things! But they were pretty easy to do since our teacher made us this document that had all the boxes for these things for us to fill out.

Here is a picture.

Have you ever done a marble run?

On Thursday we had a S.T.E.M challenge. S science, T technology, E engineering M mathematics. We had 50 minutes  to use the materials we are given materials which were the same in all groups, to create a track that a ping pong ball will go through but the catch was it had to be as close as it can be to 10 seconds. The materials were: 3 ice block sticks, 4 newspapers, 5 kebab sticks, 5 straws , 1 piece of black foam, 3 sheets of thick glossy white paper, Small pieces of blocks and one 4 meter tape. We got to choose our groups. There were 7 groups with three in each of them. My group was Alize, Setayesh and myself. Our group’s name was The Waikowhai Stars.

Our average amount was 5.4425.  Every person in the group had 1 turn putting the ping pong ball through the track and then our teacher Mr Riceman had a turn in every group. Then we divided the numbers and see the average. It might sound easy but its not. it was so tricky but in the end we learnt a lot.
