t4 writing assement
In the holiday on Sunday, me and Ryan rode my dirt bikes to the beach on my dirt bikes and a quad bike.
I took a Suzuki king quad 750cc with ryan on the back. Ryan’s dad took a Yamaha 125cc 4stroke and my dad took a Forza 125cc 4stroke.
When we got to the beach Ryan
got off the quad bike and I started going down the beach following Ryan to make sure he didn’t get hurt. Next we turned around and entered into a track.
that is in the dunes for around ten minutes then I came out of the track and got ryan back on the back of the quad. and did the track with him he almost fell off the back because he wasn’t holding on properly but after that he started holding on and we were up in the track for about another 20 minutes.
When we came back down to the place where my dad was. Ryan wanted to go home and I wanted to go for another ride so I rode down the beach without them and got up to 81 kph.

Pumpkin writing
I was just a store bought pumpkin just for Halloween, nothing much.But then my owners washed me and carved a smile on my face for this special day! After that, they opened my head and put a glowing lantern inside me!
The sun became to set, kids came home from school, the street was filled with spooky, scary decorations with Loads of pumpkins that were carved just like me! Darkness came, people were already in their costumes! Pirates, skeletons, zombies, cartoon characters and loads of creative costumes.
The first kid with a fun hulk costume came to our house.”Trick or treat!” He hollered. My owners opened the door and gave them milk chocolate. I’m glad that they’re happy. Some kids got loads of candy, while some got tricked!
Hours passed, kids went home, decor and pumpkins were taken off and I was the only pumpkin outside in the cold, and then my owners put me Inside, took off the lantern and made me pumpkin stew! That was rude! But funny.

Kia ora all,
Keep an eye out for the upcoming WPS newsletter – it’s the Mighty Maunga’s turn to share our learning!
We’ve had a busy assessment week, but we still managed to squeeze in a fun introduction to voting in New Zealand. As you can see below, we experienced what it takes to lead a team by building Lego towers – just imagine leading an entire country as Prime Minister! We also read an entertaining play about voting with our release teacher Ms Eagles.
I can’t wait until we dig even deeper into Aotearoa’s voting history and system!
WONDER (Book)
In room 4 we have been reading a book called ‘WONDER’ . It’s about a boy with an unusual face going to school for the first time. So we have to draw ourselves like the book cover.
Manhattan Picture
In Room 4 we have started reading wonder we had to research a building in Manhattan here is mine.
All about Stomp!
Stomp is a band making music out of different objects beside instruments. Like brooms, trash bins, pencils and more. The thing I like about Stomp is that their beat is perfectly good with the song. When it doesn’t even have any lyrics. If you haven’t seen Stomp watch one of their videos and it might make you laugh. Because they are hilarious. In some of their videos.
Stomp
We are learning about music. We have had the beat station in our classroom a couple of times, and are practicing making a beat.
We watched some of the stage show Stomp in class today. The performers didn’t use any instruments – they used things like brooms, newspapers and their shoes to make music. It was neat to see that music can come from anywhere, and there are lots of ways for musicians to make beats, melodies and songs.
The next time we have the beat station, we’re hoping to get through some of the level 2 lessons so that we can start adding some ukulele to our songs.

Our Winter Oak Tree
Our winter Oak Tree is bare and there are no green leaves to cover it. It looks like a giant skeleton standing near our playground. The twigs look spiky, sharp pointy fingers and the branches look like skinny wooden bones sticking out. The huge trunk stays super sturdy in the wind. The sleepy tree is taking a long nap waiting patiently for spring to bring its leaves back.

Climate Change- Science
Kia ora koutou katoa, This term we are learning about climate change in Science.
Here is a blog post about what we have learnt so far this term.
What is climate change?
climate change is the long-term change {that we can measure} in climate. The climate is always changing but the changes have been slow in the past but now it’s speeding up, and this change is moving faster than it has at any time in human history.
What is causing climate change?
One is the greenhouse effect, It starts off by the Earth’s surroundings called the atmosphere, the atmosphere is made of gases that trap the sun’s heat- this is a natural greenhouse effect. This process makes Earth much warmer than it would be without an atmosphere. Some gases are produced by humans {like carbon dioxide} can make their way into Earth’s atmosphere, When they get into the atmosphere, they supercharge Earth’s natural greenhouse effect by trapping heat. This results in an enhanced greenhouse effect. Some solar radiation is reflected by the Earth’s and the atmosphere. Most radiation is absorbed by the Earth’s surface and warms it. Some of the infrared radiation passes through the atmosphere. Some are absorbed and re-emitted in all directions by the greenhouse gas molecules.
Why do students throughout Aotearoa and globally want to go on strike from school and protest?
Students throughout Aotearoa and globally want to go on strike because tens of thousands of young akonga marched towns and cities throughout Aotearoa are really concern for the future of the planet, they joined a global campaign known as School Strike Climate 4 Change Action. It began in Sweden in August 2018 when 15-year old Greta Thunberg missed the school protest outside of the Swedish Parliament holding a sign the read ‘Skolstrejk for klimatet'{school strike for the climate}’ Since then it has grown into a worldwide movement, where youth are at the forefront of demanding governments protect the future of the environment they will inherit. New Zealand go on climate strike to demand urgent government action on climate change, protect their future and ensure a safe and stable environment.
The Boy who Built a Wall Around Himself.
Before the boy built the tall wall around himself, he felt very upset, overwhelmed and petrified because nobody seemed to care or love him. He felt suffocated by the weight of his painful feelings. He grew hollow inside as his happiness vanished. It seemed everyone abandoned him, leaving him alone to carry these painful feelings by himself. As a result he felt shattered, unsafe, loneliness and defenseless.
