Last week we made Matariki stars out of wool and cardboard. It was hard making it on the first try for me so I had to try again. The hardest part was when we made the lines around the circle like on a clock because they had to be even. It was good to see the star come after we had gone around the clock a few times weaving with the wool.
We also learned the game of Knuckle bones which children used to play a long time ago in New Zealand and we found out in other places around the world too.
\fun fact: Matariki is one of the closest star clusters to earth and this year is the first time we have had a public holiday to celebrate Matariki in New Zealand.

yesterday we learnt about our future footprint. We also learned what we might want to do with our future or our future footprint.
Today we learnt how to write a good and positive email to send to somebody like teachers or families. We learnt how to type a good email by using a greeting, keeping to the topic, and telling the specific subject. Always proof read before sending.
Today room 6 learnt how we can make an informed guess about someone. We got to learn from other people by reading what they are sharing online, anyone can see the information so make sure to show integrity by staying positive, kind and helpful.
Yesterday Mr.Bell had an excellent idea for us to play in a Ki o Rahi tournament and it was the very first tournament at St Patrick’s School. Rooms 6, 7 and 8 were taking part. The tournament was going to happen after morning tea. When morning tea ended we had to go under the canopy to get into our houses. The houses are Rimu, Kauri, Totara and Rata. Sadly I got injured when it was morning tea and couldn’t play but I still had fun watching the houses play. There were 8 rounds and some people had 1 or 2 rounds.
I loved watching the tournament and everyone played fairly and had a good time. Thanks coach Trey for being the referee and giving Willietony the $100 from Monopoly. It was funny.
Today we are learning to make a respectful and positive environment digital footprint, we need to stop and take a look of what we are saying in the media. Because we sometimes do not know what we are saying, so make sure that we stop and think about what we are typing in in the media.
If you are not sure ask an adult that it is safe.
Pelicans live in All continents except antarctica. The white pelican lives in Australia near rivers, the sea and on the land.
The pelicans were discovered in 1758.

It dives down under the water and scoop up the water in its bill. Then they drain the water from the pouch and eat the fish that is left behind.
Pelicans feed their babies by opening their bills and regurgitating food for the babies.
Last Thursday the class ate some ANZAC biscuits and we had to describe them. I learned that they were made over a hundred years ago during World War 1, when the women baked them and sent them to the soldiers as a treat. I was surprised that there is still a recipe for ANZAC biscuits. The ingredients were butter, flour, golden syrup, and baking soda. I think some people add coconut in the cookie. When I picked it up the crumbs started to fall, making a mess. I was nervous at first because I thought it was going to taste rough as a rock. When I tasted it the biscuit exploded in my mouth making me want even more. It tasted as sweet as chocolate covered strawberries. For one second I thought I was in heaven. I enjoyed the cookie even though I couldn’t have more than one. I decided when I get home I’m going to ask my mom if she can try baking them.
