Authorship- Happy PlaceOutcome- Description of your happy place Stimulus- Karen and Andy’s written descriptions Focus- Use show not tell If I close my eyes I can return to that familiar place. I can feel the hard uncomfortable wooden chair that I choose to sit on. Why you might ask do I choose to sit on such an uncomfortable chair, simple it is the closest chair to my granny. My grandfather comes into the room, a bundle of turf under his arm. He picks up an industrial looking utensil that enables him to open the range, flames rise from the hole in which my grandfather dispatches the turf. The smell of the turf burning is more than a smell, it is a place, a time, a people, a memory. My grandfather finished with his hourly duty, sits opposite me in his comfortable rocking chair, with its faded arms. The room is silent except for the low sound coming from the radio. The television sits patiently beside my grandmother knowing the next time it will be called to duty is when the bells ring for the Angelus. I look out the small window as the soft rain falls down on the fields outside. The cold unwelcoming weather will not invade our snug little room. My grandmother gently inquires “Would you like a biscuit?” my smile answers her question. She nods to the press. I walk over and pull at the doors, the doors have grown closer together after years and years of added coats of paint and require greater force than they did when they first came into the house. My eyes peruse the cupboard until they spot the packet of gingernuts. Maths

Remember to set your book up like we have been. See below. READY- The activity you are completing NOTES- watch the teaching clip and write down examples of what you learn FIRE- have a go at the questions- recording them in you book and marking as you go AIM- go back and have another attempt at any you get wrong- you might need to re-watch the teaching clip Reading- MondayWeek 9 Term 3Last week was awesome!! We managed to fit is so many cool things is one week. Please see some photos and movies below of what we did. This week we have our wingspan trip on Thursday. Please try and return all permission slips to me by Monday. Reading Monday- RocketsFEATURES for a rocket to fly! Rocket shapeThe streamlined design of rockets helps reduce air resistance. A rocket also has better stability if more of the weight is at the top and the drag is at the base. Remember you must use a 1.5 litre carbonated drink bottle as the base. NoseconeA good nose cone will help your rocket cut through the air and reduce drag. A simple way to do this is to create a nose cone from the top half of another bottle. Remember not to attach it! During lift off the air pressure will hold the nose cone in place. Try adding extra weight such as three coins or modelling clay under cap. This helps with stability and prevents the rocket from nose diving into the ground. FinsFins are designed to help stabilise the rocket so it has a smoother trajectory. Fins will stop the rocket from wobbling, falling, flipping over or suddenly changing direction. Think about your rocket’s first test flight and how it flew. Without fins, a rocket is less aerodynamic. Shape – Most fins are triangular, but other shapes can be used, too. You can experiment using different geometric shapes to see what happens. Remember to keep them all the same shape! Size – The size of your fins will also change your rocket’s performance. Larger fins increase drag, while smaller fins don’t provide any stability. Streamlined fins will help the rocket cut through the air. A good ratio to consider is making your fins one third of the rocket’s size. Number – The number of fins on a rocket can also affect its performance. Fins need to be evenly placed around the rocket to distribute the weight and air drag equally. Try using 3–4 fins for maximum stability. Reading Tuesday- Ruru nesting boxesMaths-WALT: convert mixed and improper fractions

Inquiry- Environmental Science Monday Reading- The power of rivers and streamsMost rivers and streams begin on high ground, like on mountains or hills. The start of a river or stream is called the source. Small streams form and gradually get bigger as they collect more water from the rain and can join other streams. A stream is just a small, narrow river. That is why Waitawa Stream is called a ‘stream’ and not a river. Slowly, a stream may collect enough water to be called a river. It then usually ends at the sea. The Kaituna River is an example of this and ends at the Pacific Ocean near Maketu in the Bay of Plenty. Waitawa Stream, however, ends at a lake - Lake Rotorua. The bottom of a river or stream is called the bed and the sides are called banks. Parts of rivers and streams: One of the reasons why rivers and streams are powerful is because they help a lot of plants to grow and provide food for fish and other animals. Alongside Waitawa Stream you will find different plant species, including harakeke (flax), that can improve the quality of the water. Harakeke, for example, provides a natural fence for the stream and helps to filter out harmful substances from entering the water, such as rubbish and pesticides from nearby homes. This helps to provide clean water so that freshwater species can thrive. Two important, native species that have been found in the stream are Koura and Kokopu. The second reason they are powerful is because they can be dangerous. You have to be very careful when near a river or even a stream. If you fall in, you can be carried away downstream by a strong current. Sometimes a river or stream can look harmless when it is actually very powerful. If in doubt, stay out! New Zealand has some dangerous rivers, including the Kaituna River in the Bay of Plenty and the Waikato River - both of which have claimed the lives of people who have swum there. One of the ways we can measure how powerful a stream or river is by measuring the flow rate. The flow rate is the amount of water (volume) that passes between two points in a given amount of time. This is usually measured in litres per second. To measure the flow rate in Waitawa Stream, the depth, width and length of part of the stream needs to be worked out. We also need your help to work out how long it takes an object to float between two points. Questions Recall

Epic readingPlease continue to read through the text from last week focusing on rockets. Designing your rocketIMAGINE
You’ve asked, now it’s time to imagine. I wonder what I can use to solve my problem? What could be improved to make your rocket fly higher? |
