Escape from Kraznir

From the end of term 1 to week four of term 2, in the writing workshop we have been working on a chapter book named escape from Kraznir. I am up to chapter 5 so far and I am really enjoying it. Here is a link to my writing:

Electric Village

This terms inquiry topic is retro tech. For this topic we went into town and went to electric village. Half of the class went to the tairawhiti museum and the other half went to the electric village.  I preferred the electric museum and that is what I will be informing you on today.

As soon as we got there we huddled around the electric bikes on show. We talked about electric vehicles and how much they have changed over the years. Did you know that electric vehicles are really old  but nobody used them in the olden days because they were really expensive. After that talk we talked about how electricity gets to your houses so fast and what is used to get it there. Next was free time. We could go on the electric scooter, play with robots controlled by ipads or play with wooden blocks on the road map.

I really enjoyed my visit to the electric village. I learnt lots and I will definitely going back with my family. 

Here are photos of us at the electric village.

Ban The Boring

For a quick write this week was to list all the ways you can write said. The topic was word, words, words. In my book I listed 50 words. I really enjoyed doing this quick write because of all the different ideas you could write.   I will be using this wonderful words in my writing now to make my writing better than before.
