Drama/ Hurumanu

Hi guys, for Drama we made puppets and then we had to make a puppet performance and as always I worked with Bailey to make the performance. Bailey was playing the black banana and the strawberry and the orange, I was the pineapple. The performance was about a black banana that was being called 'black' by a pineapple and then he was trying to prove that he is not black and there is more to the story but you will have to watch the video and then you will know what the story is about.

       

 Puberty:

We also learnt about puberty we learnt about different body part and how to look after our body and how to keep our body clean. At the end we got to ask questions that we wanted to know about.   

What did I think about the Revolution Tour?

What did I think about the Revolution tour?

What was the best thing/ about the Revolution?
I think the revolution tour was fun because we got to see some performers and we got to sing when a man Reggie was playing a saxophone. My favourite part about the tour was when Reggie told a really sad story about what happen to him when he was a baby, It made me have lots of emotions like sad,happy and I also felt really sorry for him  but at the end it was a happy ending.

What did I learn from the talk?
I learnt that you always need to look after one another and love each other no matter what. You should always be nice to each other because its not nice to be mean you don't know what is going on in someone else's  mind. So be kind and always have a smile. 

What I pink shirt day?

What is pink shirt day?

Pink shirt day is when you wear something pink to support people who get bullied everyday.  

What is the story behind pink shirt day?

There was a boy who was wearing a pink shirt to school and a group of boys saw him  then they started to bully him just for wearing a pink shirt. Another group of boys saw what happened, So the next day they wear pink shirts to support him and make people to realise that it's alright if you are a boy that is wearing pink. Also they brought 50 T - shirts for people who want to stand together to stop bullying.  

What day do we celebrate it on?

The day we celebrate it on is the 17th may

Why should we stand up together to stop bullying?

Because students are getting upset, they commitment to suicide and they are turning their backs on them self. kids and adults to are just over it they do not want to be bullied anymore.

How to get to Mars

Aim: To learn about Mars exploration.

1. Rover facts 

2. Design, Draw and Make a Rover

3. Mars facts

1. Rover facts: 

What are the 5 parts for? 
Link: Rovers 5 parts

Fill in the table below.

Name: Khaylanie	Purpose:
Wheels	The wheels Also have individual steering motors. This steering capability allows the vehicle to turn in place, a full 360 degrees. The four-wheel steering also allows the rover to swerve and curve, making arcing turns.
Solar Panel	it produces electricity from the sun so that the rover can move.
Laser	The SuperCam on the Mars 2020 rover examines rocks and soils with a camera, laser and spectrometers to seek organic compounds that could be related to past life on Mars. It can identify the chemical and mineral makeup of targets as small as a pencil point from a distance of more than 20 feet (7 meters).
Camera	The camera sends photos back to NASA. It can do 3 point 60 turn.
Shovel, rock pick,drill	The Mars 2020 mission will gather samples from Martian rocks and soil using its drill. The rover will then store the sample cores in tubes on the Martian surface. This entire process is called "sample caching".

2. In groups of 3 you will Design, Draw and Make a Mars Rover out of Lego Technics.
Materials:

1. Lego Technics
2. A4 paper
3. Pencil
4. Ruler
5. Eraser

The drawing and model must have:

• 6 wheels
• 1 camera
• 1 tool at the front than includes a shovel, pick and drill.
• 1 solar panel
• 1 laser that points at the ground

 ( Take a photo and upload  your mars rover onto your blog.)

3. Mars Facts

Link: Facts

You will need to find out the following:

Fact	Earth	Mars
Picture of planet
Length of 1 year	365 days	687
Length of 1 day	24 hours	1 day and 31 minutes
Distance from the sun	149.6 million km	227.9 million Km
Distance from Earth.	54.6 million kilometers	54.6 million kilometers
Gravity:	9.807 M/s2	3.711 M/s2
Colour:	mostly blue with green and brown and white for the clouds	red ish
Temperature	-88 to 57 C	70 degrees
Rainfall	39 inches	518mn
Atmosphere	78% nitrogen 21% oxygen, , 0.9% argon and 0.03% carbon dioxide	95.3% carbon dioxide  and 2.7% nitrogen
Surface	510.1 million km2	144.8 million km2
Moons and names	moon	Phobos Deimos

Conclusion: Write about what you have learnt.

Today I was working with Bailey, Anneleise, Janel and Keyana The first thing we did was watch a video of a spaceship going to mars to deliver a robot. Today I learnt that mars is 70 degrees It must be really hot. The second thing I learnt was that mars moons and names are Phobos and Deimos and earth is just moon.
