For the past few weeks we have been working on making an shop for market day, Our shop is filled with unique pieces of hand crocheting with the likeness of modern 3D printing. Every item is thoughtfully designed, handmade, or printed. For our shop the hardest part  was to pick our shops name that fits our shop perfectly, All the choices where cringe, The one we where about to the was the crochet buddies which my friend came up with, But since we aren’t only doing crochet we had to pick other name. The  one we ended up picking was the fabulous crochet & 3D printed.

In our shop we crafted things with care to bring our imagination to life in both yarn and plastic, and we make sure to explore endless limits of creativity. Our group had 3 people which are – Maliha, Stephanie, and Tashifa.  And today I’m really excited to visit other shops and buy  food with our banker money.

Thank you for reading my blog, Have a wonderful day readers. 🙂

In todays chapter book task I picked to do chapter title, in this task we had to – Make up a new title for the chapter you just read. Explain why your title fits better than the original one. we had to be clever and creative.

So the last chapter I read had a name and it was called – make like a cheese wheel. I don’t think that name fits since the chapter I read was about the waitomo cave, the waitomo cave is a cave famouse for its blue glowing worms which makes the cave light up blue, Its an beautiful phenomenon and worth watching. So if the thea sister went to the waitomo cave the name should be related, So if I was the one naming I would name it – Thea sisters and the glowing cave or The blue light.

I think that this is a great name cause the book is about the waitomo cave and the cave glows so it fits perfectly in my opinion. Thank you for reading my blog, I hope u have an wonderful day. Bye. 🙂

This week the chapter book task I did was chapter chat, In this task we have to write  a summary of what happen in the last chapter we read. We have to keep it short and sharp – just the main event happening in the book in our own words. The book I’m reading is thea stilton and the cave of stars, This book is about a megapteryx which is an skeleton of a bird that went extinct many years ago. The main things that happened in the last chapter were – 

Pam fell into an hay, she didn’t felt hurt but she felt something hard under her leg, it was a mints tin but it didnt had candy it it but in fact it had a note with the name of the bird that went extinct many years ago, everyone ignored it but violet was a bit curious and wanted to see the skeleton of the bird, she told everyone else and the next day they went to wallington to the museum, But the skeleton wasn’t there, someone stole it!

This realization immediately turns their sight-seeing trip into an investigation, setting up the central mystery that the Thea Sisters must solve throughout the rest of the book – finding the stolen skeleton before it’s too late.

Kia Ora!

This week in reading we read – How money moves in our community.  We also made an flowchart based on how money moves in our life. A flow chart is an diagram showing that shows process  or the next step, It is a way of showing Data with symbols like arrows rather then numbers and alphabet. After we read the story and the book we had an quiz made by Gemini (an ai) And I got 24/25 meaning I only got one question wrong!

This is the story –

In our town, money is always on the move, even when we don’t see it. It travels from person to person and from business to business, helping everyone get what they need and keeping our community alive. Let’s start with Hemi. He works at the local bakery, making bread early every morning. The bakery earns money when people buy their pies, loaves, and sausage rolls. Hemi’s boss uses some of that money to pay Hemi’s wages and to buy flour, butter, and electricity for the ovens. The rest goes toward rent and paying suppliers who provide the ingredients.

Each week, Hemi uses his pay to buy groceries at the supermarket, petrol for his car, and sometimes a hot chocolate from the café near school. When Hemi spends his money, it doesn’t disappear, it keeps travelling. The supermarket uses that money to pay its workers and buy more food from local farmers. The café pays for milk from a nearby dairy farm and cups from a packaging company. The farmers then use what they earn to pay their workers and repair their equipment. Some of the money that moves through these businesses goes to the government as taxes. Taxes help pay for things that everyone uses such as roads, schools, hospitals, and teachers. So when our class gets new sports gear or a local road is repaired, that’s money moving back into our community.

Not all money stays local though. When people buy things online from overseas, the money often leaves our country. That means it doesn’t help local shops or jobs. That’s why people say, “Shop local, it keeps our community strong.” Supporting local businesses helps more families in our area keep earning and spending close to home.

Money doesn’t just move through buying and selling. It also moves when people save, borrow, or invest. When Hemi saves money in his bank account, the bank uses part of that money to lend to others who need it, such as someone starting a small business or buying a car. Later, when those people repay the loan with interest, the bank can give a little extra back to Hemi. Even when money is sitting quietly in the bank, it is still helping the community grow.

Another important way money moves is through sharing and support. In Aotearoa, families often help one another in different ways. Māori whānau might give koha at the marae to support gatherings or tangihanga. Pasifika families may give money or food for community events or fa’alavelave. These acts of generosity keep relationships strong and make sure that everyone has what they need, even if they don’t earn much. When kindness and money move together, the whole community becomes stronger.

Every time you earn, spend, save, borrow, or share money, you take part in this money cycle. It connects bakers, farmers, teachers, shop owners, and families. When money keeps moving, our community grows and everyone has the chance to thrive.

If you read the story here are some questions that we got in the quiz –

A. Whats hemis job in community.

B. What ingredients does hemi’s boss buy for the oven.

C. What is the consequens when people buy things from overseas.

Thank for reading my blog lets see if you get some questions right, sorry if the image are blurry. Bye! 🙂

While reading the book and watching the movie, we took detailed notes about the key events, important characters, and notable differences between the two versions. We paid attention to things like how the witches were portrayed, what happened to the main characters, and how the story ended. After gathering all our notes, we compared them to find out what was unique to the book, what was unique to the movie, and what parts were shared by both.

Hello!

Yesterday I had an really boring day. I woke up to sun ray shining  right on my face waking me up, Well I  tried to go back to sleep my sisters alarm woke me up not letting me go to sleep again. I had my normal roution of waking up,  washing my face and brushing my teeth, After I had breakfast but instead of getting ready for school I  just scrolled on my phone and played games cause school was cancelled cause of strike day.

A strike day – On strike day teacher  are trying to get better things for their job, usually higher pay or improve working conditions. (like smaller class sizes or more support). It’s a way to get the attention of the people who can make those changes. Some teacher don’t came to school so school get cancelled.

After  a few boring hours of just scrolling of my phone and playing with a friend I played a bit with my little brother. We played a bit board games untill he want outside to play and I ate some food. To me it was an really hot day so me and my sister went out to get  ice cream and we decided to bring a  whole bunch so our whole family gets some.

then in the afternoon we went to visit my grandma in the hospital cause shes a bit sick. after when we got back home I read  ur holy book untill it was time for dinner. I ate and went to my bed. I played a bit more not knowing it was past my  bed time. Like really late so my sister saw me and told me to go sleep,

And that’s why my day was kinda a boring day.

Thank you for reading my blog! 🙂

Hi! 🙂

The Grand High Witch is the main villain in Roald Dahl’s book, “The Witches.” She stands out as the most powerful and frightening witch in the whole world, and all other witches must listen to her.

The grand high witch is the most evil witch and the other witches leader. So the other witches has to obey her commands. The grand high witch travels through England and looks for other  witches to hold meetings and talk about there evil plans,  You can tell someone is a witches if there scratching there heads and wearing gloves.

If you saw her when she’s pretending to be an ordinary lady, she looks beautiful and fancy. But her real form is  actually very creepy! She is bald, has claws instead of fingernails, weird sharp noses, and no toes. She often wears a wig, gloves, and special shoes to hide all these things. Her eyes are described like those of a snake, and she can make sparks fly from them when she’s angry.

The Grand High Witch is very smart, but also extremely cruel. She doesn’t care about anyone else’s feelings, and she even scares the other witches. She has magical powers that are much stronger than any other witch. She can make potions and cast spells that no one else can. All the witches are terrified of her, and she rules by using fear.

The Grand High Witch absolutely hates children she thinks that they  smell worse then dog dropping. She wants to get rid of all kids and turn them into mouse by casting an spell. The way the little boy knew he was near lots of witches where by them scratching there heads and wearing gloves. Witches wear wigs to hide there baldness and it gets really itchy, The witches started scratching there heads and the boy saw there wig camping of. They also hide there’s claws by wearing gloves.

The grand high witch is old but looks really pretty and young when in disguise, Shes bald and toe less and has clawless rather  then nails.

In this week reading – writing we learned and wrote about shadows – there journey, and how there formed. Our last weeks writing/reading was about rainbow and this ones is about shadows! What is an shadow –

Light and shadows

Introduction –
Have you ever seen a dark black figure following you wherever you go, constantly shifting its size and shape throughout the day? I’m pretty sure you have, but have you ever wondered what that is? That similar dark figure is nothing but your own shadow. A shadow is formed when a ray of light tries to pass through an object, but the object is blocking its way. Why can’t the light simply travel around the object? This explanation is going to be about shadows and how they are formed, so let’s dive deeper into this thinking.

Light and shadow? –
A shadow is made using light, and light can be from different sources, like our stars, candles, the sun, and the light from our lamps. All of the lights travel in one straight line until an object or person blocks their way. The process of an object blocking light is called opaque. The part where the light cannot reach, creating a dark area around the particular object, is called a shadow, created by nothing but an object blocking the light from passing through.

Why do shadows change size?
Shadows constantly change their size and shape midday. Shadows change size because the angle of the light source changes, causing the shadow to become shorter when the light is high and longer when the light is low. So that’s the reason why shadows are long at sunrise and short in the afternoon. The biggest/longest shadow basically doesn’t have an end.

Opaque, translucent and transparent objects
Opaque Object – An opaque object completely blocks the journey of light. For example, if you hold a coin or a thick book up to a flashlight, no light passes through to the other side. Opaque materials create the darkest, most defined shadows.Translucent Objects – These materials allow some light to pass through, but the light is scattered. Because not all light is blocked, translucent objects (like frosted glass) create softer, fuzzier shadows.Transparent Objects – These materials allow almost all light to pass directly through them (like clear glass).
An opaque object is something that doesn’t let light pass through at all. For example, if you hold a coin or a thick book up to a flashlight, the light doesn’t go through at all, and you can’t see anything on the other side – that’s because these items are opaque – meaning that light can’t go through an object. It’s, way different from translucent things because transparent objects let a little bit of light through. When scientists talk about how materials handle light, opaque materials are the ones that win the award for totally stopping the light’s journey.

Conclusion
In summary, a shadow is also a phenomenon moment when a ray of light is travelling until it hits an opaque object blocking its way, ending the journey of light. Well, a translucent object lets a bit of light go through. It’s a phenomenon that happens every sunny day, also changing sizes when the sun spins around the earth, making shadows change shape midday.

This is my this week writing and I enjoyed it a lot! And I’m looking forward to our next weeks theme. Thank you for reading my blog, explanation writing.

Today my blog is about something we have been doing for our reading and writing – what is an rainbow?

What is an rainbow? A rainbow is a beautiful natural optical illusion that appears as an arc of colors. It is formed when sunlight passes through raindrops and the light refracts, scattering to create a stunning spectrum.

How are rainbows formed

Rainbows are formed when sunlight is scattered from raindrops into the eyes of an observer.

For the rainbow to form, the positions of the water droplet and the sun need to be right: the sun needs to be behind the viewer, and the sun needs to be low in the sky, at an angle less than degrees above the horizon. The lower the sun, the more arc of the rainbow the observer will see. 

Different types of rainbows

There are many stunning types of rainbows in the world. Since  the conditions can change, rainbows can be seen in different colors, shapes, and ways.

One example is a fogbow, which is formed when sunlight refracts and reflects off the tiny water droplets in fog. Other types include moonbows, monochrome, double rainbows, and multiple rainbows. They are all formed similarly to a normal rainbow but are seen at different positions or due to different conditions. The process of when the rainbow is made is called refraction, which happens when light bends inside a prism – like water droplet.

More information about rainbows

Most kids think that there is a leprechaun waiting at the end of the rainbow, but actually, rainbows physically don’t have an end. They are an optical illusion created by sunlight reflecting off a raindrop, appearing as a full circle. The reason you only see the arc is because the ground is blocking the view. You can only see the rainbow as a full circle if you’re sitting on a plane. Sir Isaac Newton was the first scientist to discover that the light that comes from the sun isn’t actually white but is, in fact, a mixture of colors.

Conclusion

In conclusion, a rainbow is a beautiful multi-colored arc of light that appears in the sky. It is created when sunlight enters a water droplet, is internally reflected, and refracts as it exits, splitting the white light into a vibrant spectrum of colors for the observer to see.
