A Beach Holiday
The beach is always a great place to spend a relaxing holiday. That’s the way our school spent our last week as a school before school holidays. Sounds relaxing right well at least that was what we thought before we got there. We did so many things that I forgot. I just remembered three of my favorite things we went & saw and ate. So here is my fav one. it all started on the last day of our school trip. We were all crazed about the last day partly because it was the school holidays tomorrow and we were going to a chocolate factory. When we went in the house that the chocolate factory was in. All other senses went to sleep. Ah the aroma was too good to believe. Then there in front of us was a chocolate door we knew it wasn’t real chocolate but still it looked good enough to eat. That didn’t outlive the chocolate wheel. All this delicious melted, creamy, dark chocolate getting churned around the wheel. the wheel spun around and around pulling dark chocolate along with it.
- Pure Dark Chocolate And Milk Chocolate
We went for dinner to a fish&chips shop. We got a tour of it. I know that sounds dumb but it was surprisingly cool We met Mr Yocke. He owns Ohiwa Oyster farm and he showed us around. First he showed us the sticks that the oysters are on. He showed us a oyster baby. Then we went inside his shed/building. He cracked some oysters and gave them to the adults. Then some children ate some.
- Centre of attention
Mataatua Marae was amazingly cool. We watched a slide show. It was to show to tell us why Mataatua marae is called moving marae. Then we went into the marae we watched a movie. It was screened on the very front wall. The movie was moving all over the carvings on the front wall. Then at the end we had to say our Pepehas( we had to introduce our selves.) when we were finaly done that we were alowed to look at all the carvings. it was cool.

Science Investigation proposal
Hypothesis: Apples faster grow mould faster than other fruits.
You will need: An apple, thre more fruits of your choice, dark room, camera (optional), note book and a pencil
Method:
1) Get a dark room. Layout the plastic wrap place the apple and the other three fruits on the wrap (make sure there is no sun light and they all get the same amount of air)
2) Leave them there for a week and a half. Take notes a everyday and photos (photos optional)
3) When you reach the final conclution write down the notes on a chart and prove what one has grown mould the fastest
4) Find different fruits to do the test. keep track of how the apple went.
This should be a fair test if all the items are in the same room, same amount of air, same amount of space and distance.

How To Conduct A Scientific Investigation
How To Conduct A Scientific Investigation
First what do you want to find out?
Here is a list of things you could find out
1.How long it takes for mould to grow
2.How long a butterfly takes to hatch
3.How long it takes to make flowers colourful
4.Does mould grow better in gladwrap
5.Does paint go off
6.Does sun block go off
Now how to do it
Step 1.
Hypothesis
A hypothesis is a theory like :the moon is made of cheese. but people proved this wrong. what do you want to find out about
Step 2.
Method
A method is a plan of how you are going to test it and the equipment you need.
Step3.
Observations
What did you see while conducting your investigation. observations is what you see not what you think.
Step 4.
Findings
This is what we find out about what we investigate like: did it work or not? did it go well?
Just a little reminder
It has to be a fair investigation
If it isn’t fair you can’t say that it worked or it didn’t
What Science expiriments have you done?

light and colour
Last Friday the whole school went to town to TAS. In TAS we went to the science lab and we looked at what makes the light bend. We also learnt how to make a rainbow and how the sun and rain create the rainbow.
Q. does light travel in a straight line ?
find the answer then put it in the comment box.
Prisms
if you want to bend light in to different styles you need a mirror and some prisms.
a prism is a peace of glass.
RAINBOW
Do you know what a raindrop looks like if you don’t here is a picture
see the pointed start if you had a flat glass raindrop and shined a tourch on the ground pointing at the point like this would create a rainbow and if you had something glass with a point it would work
the rules of light
rule 1
Light only travels in a strait line
rule 2
To see some thing the light must bounce of it and into your eye.
rule 3
light is white which is made of red, yellow, green, indigo, violet
rule 4
light can not bend on its own. but you can try to bend it with a prism, mirrors, tinfoil, rainwater, glad wrap and water and lot of others.
