Bouncy castle

Last Friday during assembly Mr Burt told the whole schools that would have a turn on the inflatable bouncy castle. I was totally excited, he said that the whole school would have two turns each also in partners of two.

Once we were in class we sat down on the mat and waited for the other extension kids,then when the others arrived we were planning to make our movies. When we finished parts of our movie Mr Jacobsen came to our classroom and said" take your shoes and socks off because it's your guys turn to go on the bouncy castle." Everybody was so excited when we were lining up.

We walked to the huge line. When we were lining up, we were thinking of what we were going to do. I thought about doing one jump and sliding down the stripy slide. When it was my turn I clambered up the handles by doing one after another, we would only get two turns on the inflatable castle, when I got to the top I plummeted down by going like a falling angel.

After our turn we lined up behind our class. Then on our next turn I was like a cannonball. Our turns were all finished, we had a great time,thank you Tamaki Pride.

Kiwi sport basketball

Every Tuesday after lunch room 13 goes to kiwi sport basketball with Coach Vinnie and Coach Shinice.

When our class arrives at basketball we sit on the cool hall ground. We warm up our muscles by playing these games, stuck in the mud, red light green light, octopus and line tiggy.

Coach Vinnie taught us some skills. They were v dribbles, bongo drums and shooting like a waiter. He said  "Never double dribble in basketball." These skills will help us when we play basketball.

At the end of our lesson we play a game where our whole class gets to play together. The idea is for the team to get the most goals up to five. The winning team gets to aeroplane around the hall.

My favourite thing about kiwi sport basketball was shooting and getting goals. What I learnt was v dribbling. It was fun for me v dribbling.

Thanks coach Vinnie and coach Shenice for teaching us new skills about basketball.

Fraction fish

We have been learning  about fractions. These fish teach us about equal parts of a circle

Mr Bean

 The fat old lady barked and pointed at the long grass with her walking stick. “Cut the grass, Mr Bean” she shouted while looking at the old lawn mower. Reluctantly, Mr Bean headed over to start the rusty old machine.

“Splutter splutter” Smoke poured from the mower. Mr Bean looked around, he wasn’t one for hard work. He knew there had to be an easier way. Out of the corner of his eye Mr Bean noticed the cage full of little bunny rabbits.

Picking some of the grass Mr bean walked over to the cage and gave a bunch to the Rabbits.Quickly they gobbled up the sweet green treat. Now he had an idea.

Tinkering in his shed Mr Bean created the perfect tool for a man as lazy as himself. A rabbit lawnmower. After setting the bunnies to work he relaxed back in his lawn chair and enjoyed a cool glass of lemonade.

PE Style

I made this movie with my friends in year 3 extension.

The first thing we did was to write new words to Taylor Swift's song - Style.  Then we had to record ourselves singing. Finally we were able to make our very own MTV.
