COLD WINDY DAY

WALKING TO SCHOOL ON A COLD WINDY DAY

Shivering while waking up to a freezing morning. No time for breakfast so quickly get changed and rushed out the door. It was foggy, also my feet and fingers were numb. Briskly walking my teeth chattering and tummy rumbling. As i was walking i notice the the grass was frozen.

What makes sound

A world without sound would be very strange and silent.We wouldn't be able to enjoy music and people will find it difficult to communicate it would  be boring.Sound helps us in many different ways. But what is sound?

Hitting an object makes an echoing sound which will ricochet off the object. This vibration is what makes the sound. It vibrates the air  molecule in all directions then travels into the ear. Once it reaches the eardrum it vibrates and changes into electric signal. Then sends the electric signal to the brain.

When sound is a low pitch sound how does it changes to an high pitch sound. So when the sound wave vibrates slow that is an pitch low sound and when it vibrates fast it is an high pitch sound. Frequency to measure sound herz sound wave second.

Sound is an important thing to our body and it will be sad to live without sound

Topic For This Term


Walking into assembly i could see teacher in costume Every term the teacher do an act or make movie to do with the topic. The topic this term is i like to move it, move it but team five is focusing on sounds.


I really enjoyed and was exciting was when they  tied 16 balloons to an taxi car toy and then it when up onto the hall roof. So they had exspirence how many balloons it will take a toy taxi car to go up into the air. Also i liked the team 5 because they made their own instruments and it sounded cool.

Fia Fia

All groups were sitting patiently waiting to go up, group after group performing  we all waited for our turn. Crowds clapping and yelling for their kids there were over 2,000 people who attended to watch the event, Spectating with adults upto the age of 70 and some kids from different schools


Getting closer two more groups until the Niuean group. Standing up going to wait on the side of the stage after the jump jam performance it was time for us. 



"From the small oceans in the pacific  the Niuean bring the heart and soul to  the stage."


The music started for our entrance I was the leader so then I had to run first into the middle of the stage then the rest of the boys came on. When I was on the stage I could hear people YELLING and  CHEERING. Then the conch shell was blown.Then I did the lead.


We started first we did the hopo, the girls did their dance and all the boys ended it with the haka also I was leading. After the performance we all was confidence and did our best and we felt proud of ourselves  and also our parents.


What I felt about fia fia that everybody had fun and did their best and made their parents proud of them.

Waitangi

                                                          
The British arrived in  NZ. At that time Maori were living there and with chiefs there were about 200,000 Maori of them. After that the British stayed there for a while because they wanted to start a new life in NZ.


So they made a treaty between the Maori and the British. It was a contract that they would share land and have peace. A couple of days it was written Maori and English  gathered at Waitangi bay of island people and chiefs getting ready to sign the treaty.



On the 6th of February 1840 the treaty was signed.The treaty agreement or contact was to make peace between Maori and English and Europeans as well wanting land.
