Shadows
If an object blocks sunlight the place behind the object is dark. This is called a shadow.
The size of the shadow depends on the angle at which the light is falling on the object. Your shadow keeps changing throughout the day. It is longest in the early morning and the late afternoon. At midday, when the sun is overhead there is little or no shadow at all.

My Rocket
My rocket was big. I went inside the rocket and I was excited to go to space. It was time to go 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Lift off to the moon!
The engines blast off for space. I put my flag on the moon and then boosted back to earth,

The Moon
The Moon was probably made 4.5 billion years ago when a large object hit the Earth and blasted out rocks that came together to orbit round the Earth. The Moon is much smaller than the Earth. It is airless, waterless and lifeless. The gravity of the Moon, causes two high tides on the Earth every day.
The first person to walk on the Moon was the American astronaut, Neil Armstrong. He stepped out of his space craft, the Eagle, on 21 July 1969 and said these famous words, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”.

The Sun
The sun is the largest star in our solar system, however there are many stars like it in the wider universe. The earth is just the right distance from the sun that our planet is not too hot or too cold. The light from the sun takes 8 minutes to reach earth and gives life to plants. Astronauts will never be able to land on the sun as it reaches 5500 degrees celsius - 100x hotter than humans can stand.
The sheer size of the sun means that its gravitational pull forces all the planets in our solar system to orbit around it. Born 5 billion years ago, the sun has been producing heat and light for a very long time.

Tamarereti Animation
We have been learning the story of Tamarereti. Here is my animation I made with Hyperstudio.
Beside Lake Taupo was a village. In the lake there lived a scary Taniwha who would eat people when it was dark. There were no stars in the sky at night - which made night time very dangerous.
One day Tamarereti went fishing in his waka and he was blown by the wind to the other side of the lake.

After a long sleep, the sky was dark. Tamarereti was afraid of the Taniwha - but he had an idea.
On the beach lay many shiny pebbles. He gathered the pebbles. Tamarereti threw the pebbles into the night sky where they became stars.
Now the sky was too bright for the Taniwha and he stayed hidden.
Tamarereti made it safely home again.

Forces on a Kite
Gravity is the force that pulls everything down to the earth. Gravitational force pulls everything to the centre of the earth. The bigger the mass, the larger the gravitational force. Without gravity we would all float off into space.
Drag is the force that slows the movement of an object through air or water. As a moving object pushes the water and air out of the way, the water or air pushes back on the object. This drag force is always opposite to the way the object is moving. The drag force increases as the object moves faster.
Thrust is the force that moves an object. When flying a kite, the thrust comes from wind. The thrust must be stronger than the drag to make the object move.
In a plane, thrust comes from your legs.
Lift is the upwards force on the kite. Lift is created by air flowing around the kite. The different speeds of the air flowing around the kite make it lift into the air.

tamarereti
Long ago the sky was dark and had no stars.
Deep in Lake Taupo lived a scary taniwha who ate people when it was dark. One day Tamarereti woke up he felt really hungry. Tamarereti went out fishing and caught lots of fish. He fell asleep and his waka drifted to the other side of Lake Taupo.
Tamarereti was hungry so he cooked his fish. It was dark and he was scared of the taniwha, but he had an idea. On the beach lay many shiny pebbles.
Tamarereti gathered as many pebbles as he could hold and set off in his waka. As he sailed back to his village, Tamarereti threw the shiny pebbles into the sky where they settled to become the stars of Matariki.

Beach trip
Room 13 went to the beach. We ran to the beach because we were excited. We ran to the cliff to look for some cley hidden in the cliffs. We wanted to get as dirty as possible. I made a big clay ball. I gave it to Gabriel. Caleb threw a clay ball at Jermaine but he side stepped it. Jermaine threw a clay ball at Caleb and it whacked Caleb in the back.
Soane came along and said “It’s Maui time!” and then Moui said “I am the real Moui.” we looked for some crabs. We put all the crabs in the bucket and the crabs nipped me on my finger. My finger stung.
It was stuck on my finger. I slung it it way back in the sea.
It was time to go home. We climbed up the hill and we rolled down the grass to clean the mud off. We walked back to school.

The Bird
Dear Bird,
How did you die? We bless you with all of our heart.
We were walking in the morning on our way to the park when we found you. So Jermaine asked Mr Shaw for a shovel to take care of you. We wanted to take care of you because you are God’s creature.
Lee took the shovel and scooped you up gently. We carried you to the farm and we stopped under a tree.
Anthony started digging the hole, then everybody had a turn. Finally we put you in the hole and Lee said a prayer for you.
We all walked nicely back to our class.
We love you and we hope that you rest in peace and live with God.
From The Beautiful Boys and their Queen.
