Good day everyone, Its Ivorn here, last week we went to this recycling station called Visy. We went to explore how they make rubbish it to cubes and how it travels in the big machines and where they dumbed the rubbish and how rules about what we have to do when we recycling  or put rubbish in a the bin. Here are some of the facts and things and rules that you need to know when the nest time you have to put rubbish in your bins. I hope you make the right choice.

Maths with Bina

Problem solving 

Wow it was hard solving this problem today with Bina but not that hard so I'll tell you what happened:

Where do I start oh yeah we had a visitor today and she was here to help us improve in Maths. So we had a big,hard problem(not that hard) that we had solve together. So this problem involves toothpicks and 9 squares and pattern. First we had to solve it by ourselves and that was very hard to work by yourself,        but I knew not to give up. How many toothpicks to make 9 squares,well in each square had 4 toothpicks,and there are 9 squares but it's to hard,wait...

(Light bulb) Wait I know, if there is 9 squares and there are 4 toothpicks in each squares,by using my times I could do 9x4=36. Then we had to go into groups of 3 and we had to ask our team mates what we did and how we work it out.  In our group we had Ezekiel,Maxine and me(Ivorn). Then Bina said that we had to  get some ice block sticks and show what we did in our maths books and show them on the ice blocks sticks.


 It was hard but then we realize that we have done it all wrong,(booboo) we thought that it was 9 X 4 = 36 but then we realize ,that it was 3 X 9 = 27 + 1 = 28,because in each square has 3 toothpicks,and there are 9 squares so that means that 3 X 9 = 27 + 1 = 28.



 Wow in didn't know that it was going to be that hard but I kept on going. I learnt a lot in this problem like learning my times tables and what pattens mean and adding. I hope you have learnt something and you try this one day.

Fun run

Aloha everyone, its Ivorn here with some happy news, on Friday we had our cross country fun run competition with the whole school. Are you tired? On Friday we got prepared to run. First the juniors ran first and my sister came second,wow that was very shocking. Then it was the two laps and I was one of them and the girls had a plan to beat the boys and then at the end we beat each other. We ran as fast as we can in the beginning then when it came to flat parts of the run wow they were slow as a snail. But when I ran I thought about all the people that I know and my Papa,Nana and my cousin Neal, I tried not to to give up. I didn't come a place but by the way I tried my best and run hard, and I am very proud of myself. When it ended everyone was tried and others were crying and happy.
