The RWC Tabloid Sports

 This week on Monday my school celebrated the Rugby World Cup in Japan. My school had set up some activities for the day. Everyone was in teams and there were all the flags from the countries that particapate in the world cup. My favourite activities were Rippa Rugby as well as French and English.

Current Events - AREA 51 RAID TOMORROW

Today my class had to do a blog post  about some thing that had to be from a news site so I chose this because it will be hopefuly be happening tomorrow on the 20th of September. Here is some info about it. 

It was supposed to be a fun joke. Create an event on Facebook that was so absurd, everyone would have a laugh, see a meme and then move on with their lives.

Instead, Matty Roberts got a visit from the FBI, the Air Force has warned it is ready for anything and rural Lincoln County, Nevada, US, is preparing to declare a state of emergency.

In late June, Roberts, a 20-year-old from Bakersfield, posted his Facebook event: "Storm Area 51, They Can't Stop All of Us."

The idea was simple. Overwhelm the top-secret Nevada military site with people storming the gates in search of the truth behind conspiracy theories and television shows including The X-Files.

The post got little attention at first, but a few days later it started to go viral, and by mid-July more than 1 million people said on Facebook they were planning to attend.

The authorities soon heard about the plan and, were not happy. It wasn't long before Roberts began backpedalling.

I wonder if it will go ahead or not?

Street map

This is a map I have been working on with my friends it is not finished yet How we did it. First we took some co-ordinates and had to make roads .For example we had to make two parallal roads I found this hard because I do not like to draw so I did not do a lot of the drawing but I am going to colour the rest of it in. 

What do you think about Possums?

Whos that pest?

This week in reading me and my class were working on this "Who is that animal pest?" slide as an introduction to our reading topic. We had to read the clues and use the DOC website to solve the problems. Then we had to find a picture and 2-3 facts about each of the pest on the answer slide. I found this activity quite easy to do because I know alot about animals already.

De Bono’s Thinking Hats

Blog check

Today we reviewed our blogs. We looked at what we have been blogging about, what type of posts we have been creating and how many posts we have done. I found that I post things about Inquiry most and that I have not posted anything on maths so my goal is to post at least 3 maths post by term 4.
 I have found that I post more things with photos and writing than any other things so my goal is to do more posts with slides in them.

pumpkin soup

Today me and my class started to make pumpkin soup today we put the pumpkin in the microwave to make it soft so it is easy to cut in half.

so now we can scoop the insides out and put the seeds in a container to dry out and so they can be planted again and then we put 50g of butter in the pumpkin and a shake of salt and pepper.

then get a onion and garlic peel it and then cut it in half  and put a shake of salt and pepper and then rap it in tin foil and also put it in the tray next to the pumpkin and the some tin foil on the pumpkin. heres a photo of the pumpkin that my group did.

What's been in the News this Week...

NZ polices are spending $20.7 million on new stronger and lighter and more customised body armour. 

It is made to stop rifle rounds.

I think it is a good idea to spend this money on them because it protects the police who do an important job.
