Bridle Path walk

Bridle Path Walk

On Thursday our class went up the bridle path to experience what it was like for the Europeans to walk over the bridle path and all the way too Christchurch. But we only had to walk over and get picked up by the busses. My Mum was coming as a parent helper and I mostly walked with her while also walking in the front. We had to stop a few times to wait for everyone else. You could see good views of littleton and the hills around us! When we got off the bussed we had to walk to the start of the path. It was a bit steep at the start to get to the path. When we got up it was really windy and we all had lunch. On the way down it was really easy and some people slipped over witch wasn't very nice I'm lucky I didn't slip but when we got to the bottom, the busses were waiting so we all got on and went bock to school to spend the rest of the day.

I had a lot of fun walking over the bridle path and I'm glad I went.

MakeyMakeys

MakeyMakeys 

MakeyMakey is an invention kit that you can use as a keyboard You can clip in alligator clips to Up, Right, Left, Down, Click and Space bar.

We were in groups of two to make a game controller me and my buddy Uanita made a spider web. It had some squiggly rainbow colours

How have you been using MakeyMakey? Clipping alligator clips into play-doh so that it can conduct with the MakeyMakey. Me and Uanita started out drawing the web and then coloured it in with rainbow colours. We had little pieces of play-doh and stuck them onto left, right, up and down then clipped on alligator clips on. To test it out we used pacman and 

sometimes it worked and sometimes we had to press it a few times for it to Work.

And this is what we made...

End of Term Reflection 2021

This is 2021 and in term 3 I had lots of fun things to do.

My favourite thing of this term was going to ferrymead.

The most interesting thing was Epro8.

The thing I had fun on was going over the bridle path. 

I learnt that in the olden days there were some rules like girls go before boys, children must be seen but not heard and no hands in pockets.

Argument about the Europeans coming to New Zealand

 Argument about the Europeans coming to New Zealand 

Bad

The Europeans brought the flu and the Polynesians could catch it also the Europeans brought wars over land.

The Europeans brought plants that in New Zealand are weeds and brought animals That are pests in New Zealand. 

They brought farm animals that made them chop down forests and plants to make farmland. They killed 90% of the wetlands. The Polynesians were only allowed to talk in English 

Good

The Europeans brought food that the Polynesians could eat. 

The Europeans taught the Polynesians to read and write. 

The Europeans brought equipment that the Polynesians could use to build their houses. 

The Europeans brought fruit and vegetable plants with beautiful flowers. They brought farm animals for more food ( I am vegetarian so I don’t eat meat! ) and the animals would make eggs and milk.
