Homework

What to doo with the roll from the Loo?
One task for homework this fortnight was to think of a way to use the old toilet rolls. Students were challenged to think of as many ideas as possible and then if they felt energized enough, to make one. Here are those examples from today.
Well Done, Cameron, Brooke, Ruby, Page and Nick :)

Our cool parachutes

Hang Gliders

Here are a few short videos of the cool hang gliders which some students designed and made for their homework projects. GREAT WORK GUYS!

MARBLE TOWERS

Great job everyone on your homework for weeks 1 & 2. Everyone did fantastic! It was cool to flick through your books and see the work completed. Some amazing poems about home values were what really impressed me.

Below are some pics and videos of the marble runs which were not only designed but constructed too!!! :)

Homework Poems

You and Me
By Amelia & Mum

I never believed in angels, until

the day that I had you.

I never saw a star so bright,

until I looked at you.

You and me we battle, but my

wishes did come true.

That the reason behind all

happiness, is a perfect girl

like you.

Ruby's Poem

When I'm at home

My family expect

me to be honest

and show them respect.

These are the values

they really believe in

if I don't show them

they say I'll be leavin.

Speech about my family

By Tayla

There are three people in my family. My Mum,Nicole and my Dad, Vaughan and I. My Dad works at a dairy factory, he's a production manager. My Mum works at IRD. She's a PA. I have two cats and two dogs. My cat's are called Mollie and Gary and my dogs are called Zoe and Sasha.

I have just built a house on the edge of Ngaruawahia. We have two and a half acres that I ride my motor bike on. We have got a big sign on our front gate, it says 'Little Creek Ranch' with two pictures on it, one of a bull and the other of a wheel.
