Coding


Today Mr Kinane came to teach us how to make "Spirals" and how to make them Rainbow. He also taught us how to make "Variables".  He told us that Coders like him, are lazy so when he told us to get a lot of blue box's, he showed us the Variables and told us to click " Create Variable" so we did that then put a name. Most of the names were "length" because that is what he called his. We dragged the Length        button over to move 100 pixels and the-  I learnt how to do two diferent colours that could fade by
-other two things that said "length"            Myself! We had a lot of fun doing diferent things and            just came up with it by its self.              having fun with Mr Kinane. Today was his last day with us                                                                      for the year. See you next year Mr Kinane!

Art





In the past weeks of Term 4, the hole school started something called "Calender Art". Everybody Had to do it. The theme how I thought of mine was falling into a portal and about to drop to ground.  How we did it was picking two different colours of pastel, before we coloured it in, we drew a tiny circle in the middle and then drew eight lines and two circles in the middle but touching the lines. Then we got our colour of pastels and started to colour in. While we we're colouring the teacher got us to lie on the ground and make it look like we are falling into a portal so she could take the picture.  When that was done she printed them out and then she gave us them so we could cut them out. When we we're done we got ready to glue the pictures on. We did our name, age and class. Our teacher took a picture of our calenders and sent the email so we could put it on our blog. It was so fun. I cant wait to see if we do something like this next year. maybe one day I can do this at home. I loved doing it so much!

Blue Colour Poem





My colour for the Colour Poem was Blue, I chose Blue Because it is one of my favourite colours.
 My least favourite thing was... Making all those Blue - Berries, ugh I never would do that again.
 I think my favourite part was... making the dress and the butter flies also picking the tune.
It was so fun working with "Animoto" because if you really like a tune and dont wanna forget the name you could make it one of you're favourites andif ya wanna see how it would look  like on you're blog you could watch it an litslen to the tune. The tune is so nice as soon as you litsen to it you know every day of you're life will be more amazing than anyone else's so put the volume up people!

Chip Graph





Yesterday (Tuesday), our teacher Mrs Long, thought that we should do some more "Food Maths". So... She bought a bag of 3 different flavoured chips, she said that when we had gotten all our data, we could eat the chips inside the packets. If we didn't want the flavour of chips, we could swap with someone who wants our chip flavour so that we could have the chip flavour we wanted.
We worked in a " Graph". A "Graph" is something where there is box's inside a big box and you would have in it how many thing that there are. It is kinda like the easy way of saying "I have more little chips than Medium & Large" except you don't have to say it, just show it. The type of Graph we did was a chip graph... we made it a graph of three and it was about the amount of sizes of chips there were.

Repeated addition and multiplication


When I started it, I worked very very hard to try and make it make sence because I just didn't know what would make sence, but as I kept trying it finally worked! When i made my first slide, I kinda messed around, me and my partner made bunny's and I was deleteing them and wasn't really doing work, but then I realized, i had to put it on my blog and that I didn't have much time to finish, we had been playing and bearlly doing our work for WEEKS! So, every time my partner was going to play around with me, I ignored him... because I knew, I would get in trouble if it carried on... my partner soon tried to stop and he finally stopped. We tried our hardest, and now we finally finished and now it is done and on our blogs.

Term 3 Tynker Work

Today, Mr Kinane came in to do some coding on Tynker, he tought us how to make square eyes for a face & make them in line and more... I also made this, it was really fun to make because when I made it & went to make another one I almost completely forgot how to make it, it was a bummer that I forgot how to but at least I saved it so that one day I can see how to do it again & I can show more people.
It's so fun coding in Tynker with Mr Kinane because, he tought us A LOT that we didn't know.
I think this might be one of the best pictures I've made in Tynker so far because of how it fade's & how it go's in a pattern that is absoloutly AMAZING!!! My favourite part about it is how it looks like it's a ball you could actually play with even though it is kinda clear & how cody is standing next to it & is show you that he did it. At the bottom it looks like it is standing up wich is really cool. It kinda looks like it is 3.D because of the bottom of the right side,  I had so much fun doing it I can't wait for Term 4 when he'll come again.

Refection

This term, I have been writing faster and having both hands on the keyboard which helps me with lots of different things.
I have been working really hard in extra maths and have been getting quite a lot of green squares but then I  lose some of them and then the next day I get them again but now I am starting to get loads of smiley faces in race the teacher and also once when I did have green squares I had only green and yellow squares, if you get green squares it means those questions are always right and if you get yellow you get them right but just not in three seconds or it means that you sometimes get it right but not all of the time, just sometimes.
This term I have gotten really good at reading but, I don't really read at school that much but I do read at school sometimes.
My favourite thing at school so far is writing because it's just the best school subject ever to me I just love it because you are doing school work but in a relaxing way and also your fingers get a bit of a workout because of how much you are using them.
I think that I should practice with pressing the keyboards at the right time because sometimes in extra maths I press the wrong keyboards and I get the questions wrong but I am getting a lot better with it so I shouldn't need much practice just a little.

Cross Country


                           
 ]When we did cross country we went to the Morrison's farm. It was a little weird because we started where we normally ended and then we ran all the way over to where we normally start. Everything else was normal.  I was really happy because my dad and sister were there cheering me on and I started getting a lot faster, I was getting more happy and more excited about winning until,  my leg started hurting. I was so sad. Then I started getting slower and slower. My dad and my sister started calling over to me and telling me to go faster but I just couldn't. When it was over I was super proud of myself because I tried my best. I wasn't that happy but at least my dad was here.  I was a little scared about coming last but I realised  that kids were still coming. Oh I was happy then because I didn't come last. Then I heard Olivia and dad talking about Renny and I was not happy, but she did come first so  I guess it was fine. I do think that I could do a bit better if I practised more but I guess I tried my best for not practising that much so lets just say I tried my best.

Vocabulary Procrastinate

I learnt that I Procrastinate quite a lot because I know I need to do something but I don't want to so I do a different thing and then I do it. ( I mostly do it when I'm cleaning my ears) I also found out that I do it almost all the time when I'm not at school.

Now that it is on our blogs people can see what we did.

Catching Flies


I like this chapter because it has lots of describing words in it and it has food and I love food.  I also like it because it has berries, fruit and stuff like that, I also like how they described the food. That is why it is my favourite poem.

All About Me

Hi my name is Kaya from Kaniere School and I really like drawing and doing crafts and I love reading books. I have four pets. Two cats a kitten and a puppy. They are all girls. I have two older siblings a brother and a sister. Every morning I go for a run, sometimes inside and sometimes outside. My favourite game on a laptop is Roblox and my favourite board game is LUDO. I can also speak Danish. I am part Dane and part kiwi because my mum and my siblings were born in Denmark and me and my dad were born in New Zealand.  I go to gymnastics and ballet I am in grade 2 for ballet and gymnastics. Everything in learning is hard at first but it gets easier every second, minute or hour. Everyone tries very hard when you have just got something right or someone has taught someone else and they know now that means that they learnt a new thing. I am very good at drawing and singing and making people happy and making people laugh. I enjoy singing and playing with my puppy and my kitten. My challenges are finishing my work and getting stronger and always being happy. My goals are to get 50 smiley faces on Xtramaths. I am looking forward to taking my chromebook home so I can work more on getting more progressions on Math Whizz because when I have just logged in to Math Whizz mum needs the computer, uh. I hope to be able to do a back walkover, cartwheel, a giant on the bar and a tuck handstand.

old house just after we came back from Denmark.

I love how my hair is all scruffy. I love my hair style. I really like how my head is in one of the squares.
I like the dye that I have used.  I love my art.
