Our tahi rua toru tech blog

In our class we are doing tahi rua toru tech which is a comp for electronic stuff that help people in the world.We have to make blogs together and post it to the tahi rua toru tech website. This is our blog which me, Amber-Jade and Derek made.

Roles: Leader: Cahn, Secretary: Amber Jade, Seeker: Derek

Our group is called Masters of Tech we are doing a project for kids called Early Maths For Kids the

age limit is three to six years old. We are using scratch for this project, if the kids get the three
questions right they get to play a  mini game called the dot maze game, it is where you have a ball

as your character and you have to get through obstacles and if you make it to the end you have to
answer more harder questions and you get another minigame. We hope we will make it into the
reganials.

Some steps of what we need to do:

• Step one : find easy math questions

•       Step two : create the document for the questions

• Step three gather all the questions and decide what ones we use  

Science With Shannon

This week we have been doing science with Kierans mum Shannon. We made jelly, made cool patterns with skittles and got to see the results of what would happen if you put sugar and strawberries and then got to eat them. It was so fun and I can't wait to do it again next week.

Reading Response for Percy Jackson The Lightning Thief

In our class we do wide reading responses, which are book reports to help explain what we have read and help others decide if they would enjoy reading it. My writing goal is to use paragraphs in my writing. This is my wide reading response.
