Passion project

For me, reuben and Cooper passion project we have made an eel trap or Hinaki It has been a challenge because we kept failing with the funnel. It was very hard, it took us 5 weeks to build it. We had 1 and a half weeks, to set the trap. We set it on Friday. And checked on Monday we had nothing, but we set it again and hope we catch one.

Ice Party

One night mum and I went to a party when I was little. My mum said I was about three.
But I had to get dressed first so mum got me all dressed.
I was a boy in a white tux and a black bow then we drove to the party It looked awesome.
But being little means I have a pretty short attention span...

The wine they had was red wine and It had Ice In It. So here It goes the best bit of the story...
I stole the Ice out of the glasses and ate It. And also I had a red ring around my mouth,
which was the red wine.

My W.I.T

My W.I.T was awesome we did some planning and had to do this sheet that was a bit boring but it was fun when got up to drawing.It I went through a lot of ideas for planning my drawing for my painting which I did with my friend Reuben then we finished. It I thought it would have come out better but we put lots of time in it so we had to deal with it.

Holiday Poem

My teacher thinks I’m...

My teacher thinks I'm listening but actually I'm playing survival when we make little huts at the beach with my cousin Izzy.

My teacher thinks I'm writing but I'm actually tucked up in my bed watching youtubers being silly and teaching me stuff.

My teacher thinks I'm reading but I'm actually in Hamilton shopping up a storm for clothes and trying to find a summer outfit for my sister’s wedding.

Cross country

Training
running up a hill nearly every day up and down up and down and up and down over again and again but it was kinda fun but I don't know why I lost but better luck next time too bad too sad and came 9th

Kowhaiwhai art work

This is my kowhaiwhai I thought my shape looked cool so I picked it. It represents my mum hugging me.
The maths I used was symmetry because it looks the same on both sides. It reflects like a mirror.

I am very proud of my art work. I hope you like my kowhaiwhai.

My Invertebrate Report

We have been learning about what invertebrate are found in our Frankley Bush and I chose to find out more about snails.  I hope you learn something from my research...

Icky Snails

Did you know there are different types of snails? There are sea snails, terrestrial snails and  freshwater snails. My report is about land snails.

Breeding

Some snails lay eggs and stay by the nest to look after them. Some baby snails are already equipped and can look after themselves as soon as they are born.  When the snails are first born they eat their egg shell and some dirt which provides protein then makes the shell harder. Protein helps muscles grow.

Strength

A snail may move very slowly but it is very powerful.

Some snails can lift 200 times their body weight. If heavy mud or dirt fell on them it could still move around.

Predators

The snail shell only works sometimes against its predators. If a human stood on it it would crush but if a bird tried to eat it it couldn’t. Their enemies are skinks, turkeys, chickens, and humans can step on them by accident.

When a snail is scared it will go into it’s shell. Snails only come out at night so they won’t get attacked by their predators.

Diet

Snails eat vegetables like cabbage and other leaves and also worms. To eat a worm it opens it’s mouth wide and slowly slurps it up like a piece of spaghetti. They eat at night.

Habitat

Snails live in a bushy area, so they can protect themselves from the sun and don’t dry up. They eat at night when it is cool. Snails hide in dirt and leaves, things that are the same colour as their shell. This is called camouflage.

Snails are part of the mollusc family, just like their cousins, the squid, the slug and a clam.
