3D Printing Step 3: Design

This week we began our designing! After all our researching and brainstorming we started by trying to draw on paper what our designs might look like. For some of us we had to do a number of drawings until we were happy with our designs. We are very much looking forward to using TinkerCad later this week to take our 2D drawings and turn them into 3D digital models!

Paige's Cindy in da house!!!

Paige @ Pt England School: Cindy in da house!!!:

Cindy in da house

On the last day of school we got to watch cindy in da house production. Cindy in da house is where people sign up and act in front of everyone. To see the show it costed $5 for each person. But on the last day of school the whole pt england kids and students got to watch it for free. Cindy in da house production is so fun. You get to do acting, singing and dancing.

The teachers got us to sit down and then they put us in rows. The hall was full of teachers, kids and students. Their was to much talking until the lights turned off people were quiet and then the show began. Then a senior came on her name was cindy. She snuck out of the house and went to a marvellous ball. But the thing was her step sisters were there and she didn’t have a dress to wear she was in tears. But a fairy godmother came and gave her a beautiful dress.

So cindy took off and went to the ball. Her step sisters didn’t notice cindy because she looked so beautiful. The prince came and asked her for a dance so she said “yes”. They were dancing delightful until it hit midnight. She left her glass shoe on the step and ran quickly back home. The prince who was dancing with her ran to the glass shoe she left behind and went to search for her immediately. The prince knew that cindy was the love of her life.

The prince didn’t know where she lived so he went to every, house and took the glass shoe with him to see if he could find his girl. He searched and searched but he had no luck. Until he went to cindy's house and asked cindy's mum “umm excuse me do you have the matching shoe just like this”. Cindy’s mum knew she saw it somewhere. So she asked cindy and said “Cindy do you remember the time I gave you shoes just like these”. Cindy said “What do you mean are you talking about this one”. Oh I forget the prince name was josh.

So josh said to his friends “shes the one”. The school started laughing. But it carried on so cindy and josh Fell in love with each other the same way cindy fell in love with josh. And then they lived happily ever after. The lights turned back on and the show was over. I wished we saw more but that was it. Then the actors, singers and dancers came on again and took a bow. The school was noisy again and I was tired so we stood up lined up and headed back to class.

Paige's writing: What I did in the school holidays.

Paige @ Pt England School: What I did in the school holidays.:

Write all the adjectives you have to use here:

• Greedy
• Selfish
• Joyful
• Tiny
• Green

On friday it was a lovely sunny day so me and my family decided we should go to Uptown Bounce. We went to Uptown Bounce to have loads of fun.

It took us long to get to Uptown Bounce until we were finally their. After we got to Uptown Bounce we paid to get in, When we paid to get in I zoomed straight to the trampolines and waited until it was my turn to bounce. It took forever, but when I heard the people who worked there they said “everybody off”, so thats when I knew it was finally my turn.

There was heaps of people their so I went to go bounce on the trampoline but when I was going to bounce, this man told us some rules before we were going to bounce. It was a tiny small place, but breathtaking at the same time because it was so cool. I ran to the trampolines and started bouncing and jumping. My parents were watching me, I was in loads of excitement.

I thought it was time to go but we had 1 hour to play, I was having the best day of my life. 1 hour was up so I jumped the way out and went back home. At the end of the day we went to get Ice cream, The Ice Cream I got was Rocky Road, My cousins were with me but I was being greedy with the Ice cream

It was a stunning day of my life. My favourite part was when I got to bounce it was  outstanding. I hope we go to Uptown Bounce next time.

My Character is called Flame Boy and he is trying to save the world  from the  evil man named Arrow Man! Please help Flame boy save the world and it will blow your mind.      

To begin now you have to use the arrow keys. But make sure you use all the arrow keys. The keys are Left, Right, Up and Down.

You gain points and win the game when you kill Arrow man. But when Arrow man get’s his arrow from the back of his black shirt then he will aim for you. If he hits you you will lose a life.

To not get shot from Arrow man you have to throw your fireballs. I will tell you how to throw it. The letter you have to hit is Z to throw.   

That’s the end of my game. I hope you really want to play me amazing game.

News Reports - Nepal Earthquake

This week we having been reading about the Nepal Earthquake. We then have been learning how to write a news report with a focus on writing facts rather than opinions. To begin we created a Lino pin board of all the facts about the earthquake with the link to where we found the information. This was to help us understand that to find accurate facts we need to use more than one resource.

Manuwai's Holiday Writing

Manuwai @ Pt England School: Holiday Writing:

Last cold Monday I went to a camping site with my dad and my siblings in Coromandel.

How we got to the camping site was on my dads caravan. It is pretty big. After a big ride in our caravan we stopped at the shop to get some food for us to eat. What we had to eat was a delicious cheese and steak pie with a lovely refreshing drink called Aloe.

After we went to the shop we started to head to our campsite. Once we got to the campsite we started to set up our beds, food , campfire and we also got ready to take our dogs for a walk. When we were ready to take our dogs for a walk we got on our bikes and we raced down a pathway to the lake.I was the last one but i didn't care because I was with my dad.When we got to the lake we started to go for a walk because we were tied and we didn’t want to rush the dogs because they were having a drink. Also when we had a little bit of time me and my siblings went for a swim for about half an hour it was cold.When it was time to go I said goodbye to the little fish.

After I said goodbye to the fish we started to head  back to our caravan.

When we got back to our caravan we started to gather up some stones and some twigs for our campfire. I didn't get any stones or twigs because I was in the caravan making the smores and marshmallows with ice-cream and chocolate sauce for dinner.When my dad came back with my siblings he told me “Make sure you set out the table and the cutlery please.”And I said “ok dad.”A few minutes later i finished setting the table out and the cutlery. When i finished setting out the table and the cutlery i went back into the caravan and  i played with my dogs. Fluffy, Zebra, Malcolm and velvet. When it turned night time me and my siblings went to go get the twigs from the back of the caravan.

Our dessert was ice-cream and chocolate sauce. After we had dessert we went into our caravan and went into beds. In the morning me and my dad took my dogs for a walk while my siblings packed up. When we got back from our walk we were going to have breakfast. What we had for breakfast was Weet-bix with a cold milo. It was pretty nice.

After we had breakfast we had to go back to our house. I was really sad that we had to go but i told my dad if we could come back here again.

I loved camping with my dad and my siblings. I hope we can go back there very soon.
