Worms

This week we have been learning about problem solving. The problem was called worms and it was a blast. We had four blocks and we had to make shapes that worms can make. I had made a systematical table to keep record of my work. However the head of the worm had to be at the top of its body. The hard part was making shapes a worm could make. I came up with 5 ways a worm can move its body. The easy part was adding up all the numbers that a used to make a high number. The thing I will do next time is find more ways a worm can make. Here a some photos.

Waka Haerenga

Today we ( whole school ) went to Opua for a waka haerenga. Why did we go there because we had to learn about voyaging, hekenukumai busby and his wife Ngahiraka. The boats name was named after Hekenukumai's wife Ngahiraka mai tawhiti. How was it? It was a great experience because I had learnt about voyaging and how to command a waka. Here are a little sneak peak of what we did.
