August goes to Preacher Prep and his friends were Julian and Jack. There was a Halloween party coming up and August was going to be Boba Fett but he was running late so he went in to the Bleeding Scream, the same costume as last years. When he came inside the classroom his Friends Julian and Jack were talking about august and not in a kind way August ran out the door I think crying on his way out.

The rest of the chapters I forgot but the one thing I and we need to remember is that we don't need to be cool, the best or the most popular. We were born for a reason and that reason is to enjoy life. 

Digital Footprint

On Friday,Room 14 had James come in to teach us about our digital footprint. We had to Google our name and see what comes up on images. We were looking at a padlet and it had a Negative and a Positive footprint. We all had to put a Positive and a Negative footprint. We also had to do 5-8 steps to have a positive footprint. 

Earthquakes!!

On Monday, We started a slideshow and it was all about an earthquake and what an earthquake does. On Thursday 15th We had a New Zealand Shake-out. At 9:15 we all had to get under a table and do the drill for about five minutes.

Recycling Trip

Last Wednesday, We had a trip to Visy, Onehunga. When we first walked in it smelled real bad. You can visit their website just by clicking here. It was a very short trip so I'd say it was a bit boring. But the thing I really liked about it is the glass next to the sidewalk.

Maths time with Bina

Today we were doing maths with Bina and we had to figure out a maths question. The question was Ripeka and Jan were sitting around playing with toothpicks when Ripeka started to make a pattern of squares. How many toothpicks would she need to make a pattern like this that had 9 squares? To be honest I did loads of mistakes. The first pattern had 4 toothpicks.

I got stuck on on the second pattern so Bina put us in partners. Savahn said 4+4 equals 8 so the answer is 8. We went back by our self. I was really confused because I only saw 7 sticks and thought it had to be a Even number.

We got more confused and then we got into 3 partners and made the 1st pattern, Then the second pattern, Then the third pattern, left the 3rd pattern and made the 9th pattern. We had write how we worked it out. I did 9 x 3 which equals 28.

The first answer we got was 36 so we did that answer. We have learnt a lot for this problem.
