AWESOME!!
On Wednesday it was tuakana teina day, tuakana teina means younger to older. Which means that a senior class has to buddy up with a junior class.
Firstly, Ms Fepuleai did the roll then she explained to us how our behaviour should look and sound like. She told us ways of how we were going to help our buddies from Room 3 keep up with our earthquake proof houses.
Secondly, we then had to walk down to Room 3 so we can start working on creating our earthquake proof houses. When we arrived in Room 3 we looked at a slide based on earthquakes, Ms Fepuleai wrote some of the rules we were going to be looking at while we were answering some of Miss Gormly's questions. We watched a video filled with different types of ideas of how we can make our basic house earthquake proof.
Thirdly, we all went outside so Ms Fepuleai and Miss Gormly can put us into our groups. In my group was Savannah, Cheska, Tasi and myself. Our idea to make our basic house earthquake proof was to use four long rubber bands and nine red furry bendy sticks ( Pipe Sticks ). After we finished making our basic house earthquake proof we had to go and tie it onto the playground then Miss Gormly tested it.
In Conclusion, “ we had a FANTASTIC FANTASTIC FANTASTIC FANTASTIC FANTASTIC FANTASTIC FANTASTIC Time ”.
Hi, my name is Henry, from Wainui Beach School. It sounds very hard to make a earthquake proof house especially with cardboard. Just wondering, what techniques did you use? and what helped you and your group out when you were doing this task?
ReplyDeleteHello Henry my name is Joshua, one of the makers of the house. What helped me out was string and glue to strap and stick to the base.
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Nellie from Wainui Beach School in Gisborne. I liked the way that you filled us in about everything that happened throughout the day and made it interesting but I would like to know how you used your equipment.
