Te Reo Maori - Emotions

Tower Construction

Tanner, Bill and Kingston worked collaboratively on the first day back at school to construct a tower.

Erika's Rubber Egg Science Experiment!

Procedure:

First we had to put the egg in the cup carefully.	Then once we had put the egg in we had to put some vinegar in sothe egg was covered.	This is the egg after we had left it in the vinegar after 4 days. The shell was gone but it wasn’t really transparent.
This is the first time we dropped the egg but it did not bounce as much as I thought it would.	This is the egg once we dropped the egg from higher heights. It smashed.

Then we had to put the food colouring in the water and oil.	This is the food colouring just starting to mix.	Then when we put in the polident - this is what happened.

Ben's Story Writing - "New York is Falling!"

New York is falling! The words rang in Jim’s head. They were the last words to crackle

out of the radio before it stopped broadcasting. That had been three days ago. Jim

had not heard any words since then. 

He then decided to stop sitting around and go find some food and water. He started

making a water filter at home with a bucket and tubes and walked to the creek next

to his house. 

And it worked! He collected 20L of water and started drinking some because he

hadn’t drunk in 1 day. He drank all the liquid he had. But it wasn’t over yet. He

needed to find food and fast.

He tried to look for food at his local store, but all the looters had taken the food.

Afterwards he went to the New York Bomb Shelter as he had no other option. It

was great there as the plants were growing, people were bringing in food and

there was even an Indoor Swimming Pool!

First Jim went to the food bank they had there, as he desperately needed food.

The options for food there weren't actually that bad. The options were; Chicken

Nuggets, Pasta with Tomato Paste, Scrambled Eggs on toast and Beans in a can.

Later on the radio Jim heard that the “Apocalypse” was over, but the city would need

2 years to rebuild- although it was safe to go home. So everyone else and Jim

headed home. 2 years later everyone lived happily ever after.
