Zoo trip

My class went on a fun trip to the zoo. I saw a Meerkat for the first time and it looked so so cute I never knew the Meerkat would be so small.


The animal I saw was the Cheater the Cheater was running around and the other Cheater was just lying down. The next animal I saw was a Rhino it was on a hill it had a big horn his nose. After that i went to africa to see the Elephants. My favourite animal was the Elephant because it was so big and it had a long trunk . After that my class went to Te Wao Nui. We were learning about kiwis and birds. When we were learning about the birds the lady brought us there gave us a piece of paper their was all types of birds we had to look for all of the birds. The coolest part was when I saw that there was food hammered to a branch next to the birds home. Then my class went to the Bug Lab it was so cool.My favorite part was when I had 2 sticks and there was a question I only had 5 wrong and 3 right it was hard questions. There was a big Cockroach that was a slide, it was only a short slide.After that Jayla found me, then she took me to a bee hive. It was fun because I had to rup as hard as I could to make the bee glow. Once it glowed Jayla screamed and ran away.


During our day I learnt that kiwis have there nose on tip of their beak.

It was lots of fun because it was my first time at the zoo.

My catapult

Yesterday I shot my teacher and he started crying.To learn about energy my class made catapults. We used popsicle sticks and sellotape. We used pom poms for our bullets. It was a big war, friends shooting friends, students shooting teachers and even some of the kids were under the table shooting at other kids. This helped us learn about gravity, kinetic energy and potential energy. Gravity is when something falls. Potential energy is stored energy and kinetic energy is moving energy. To make a catapult you need to stack 4 popsicle sticks on top of each other then sellotape the two ends together. Next get 2 popsicle sticks lay them on top of each other and sellotape one end to make a shape like scissors. Put the layer of 4 in between the middle of the 2 scissors. I felt like I was in a real war. It was fantastic. I learnt so much about energy.
