argument

Some people at my school support the decision of having a school uniform at my school.
1. There should be no school uniform because some of us want to look cool.

2.  the teacher agrees with this situation she said so we can look the same.The principle said so we can look tidy.I think we should wear uniform because when we go on school trips some one might wonder off and when someone finds that person that wondered off the person wont know where the person came from.

3. Douglas disagrees because you have to wash it lots.
Tama said school uniforms gay.i disagree because when its winter you want to wear something else because it is cold.

4. So there you have it some people want to wear uniform and some don't.
I disagree because I DON'T LIKE UNIFORM!!!!!!

Neptune

 Neptune was the god of sea and water.

Neptune was discovered in 1846 by Johann Gotfried Galle at the berlin observatory.When Neptune was
discovered it led to the discovery of one of its moons called Triton.

Neptune is sort of blue because of the light.Also because of the Methane in it.The colour is also like Uranus.

It takes Neptune 165 years to orbit around the sun.Neptune has only made one trip around the sun.Neptune is 2,795,084,800 miles away from the sun.

Neptune  has an internal heat source-It radiate more than twice energy it recieves from the sun.

Neptune is one of the gas giants.

Singing He Kakano Ahau

Here is a tumeke video of Te Rawhiti and Jacob performing a waiata to the senior kapa haka mid June. Tino pai to mahi e hoa ma! Well done boys!



how did the popcorn dance.

have you wondered how to make popcorn dance?Well i have seen it Its quite easy once you get the hang of it. There is an experiment that makes popcorn dance.

All you need is vinegar,water,cup,food colouring and a spoon.The food colouring can be any colour. 

Firstly you need to put water in the cup.Fill it up so there's only 1/4 without water in the cup.After you put the water in you put in the food colouring so it changes colour. Soon you put in the vinegar.After you put in the vinegar the water starts to fizz.Later you put in the popcorn kernels. Finally you wait then you start to stir the popcorn then it should start dancing.


Once the popcorn starts dancing there will be bubbles around it.Then it should start floating up and down.The popcorn floated because the bubbles around it made it float because when it goes up the bubbles around it popped and goes down then when it goes down it gets bubbles then it comes back up.


I hope you all can do this experiment so you know what it does.All you need is the right ingredients to do this experiment.

Home to millions of species including humans,earth is currantly the only astronomical body where life is knowned to exsit.The planet formed 4.54 billion years ago,and life appeared on its surface within one billion years.earths biosphere has significantely altered the atmosphere and other abiotic conditions on the planet.enabiling the proliferation of aerobic organisms as well as the formation of the ozone layer which,together with earths magnetic field,blocks harmful solar radiation,permitting life on land.The phisical properties on the earth,as well as its geological history and orbit,have allowed life to persist during this period.The planet is expected to continue supporting life for at least another 500 million years

Dinosaurs

Dinosaurs are a diverse group of animals that were the Dominate terrestrial verterbrates for over 160 million years,from the late triassic period (about 65 million years ago).When the Cretaceous paleogene extinction event led to the extinction of most dinosaur species at the close of the Mesozoic era.The fossil record indicates that birds envolved within theropod dinosaurs during the jurrasic period.Some of them survived the Cretaceous Paleogene extinction event,including the ancestors of all modern birds.Consequently,in modern classification systems,birds are considered a type of dinosaur-the only group to survive a present day

Rifles

On Thursday afternoon room 7 went to rifles. It was in a forest. We were going to go rifle shooting  to learn new skills.

Firstly we got into our groups. Next we went inside the forest in a single file. During the walk Jonas talked to us about what we would be learning. Finally we got to the course. After the walk we got sent to our groups. Later Jonas taught us how to shoot a rifle.

Finally we got to use the rifles. I was first. During my first go I shot and hurt my tooth. Then I shot at a target. Later we got to have another go and I  hit another target. Lastly we played  in a competition and I got 100 points.

I came third.I hope we go again so I can improve on my shooting and earn more points.
