Hellacopter

 Today we made paper helicopters for a reading task. It was an experience to make these. First I had a lot of trouble to get it to spin but then Rhys helped me. Rhys showed me how to make one then I made it. First I needed to get a thin piece of paper and fold it in half. Next I  had to fold the to two inches down. Then I got a paper clip and put it on the bottom. Then I got on a chair and dropped it then it flew. I am really proud of this because it was a big struggle and was also my favourite reading task this week. 

Here is a video of the class racing.

Mr Kinane

 On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday Mr Kinane came into our class and taught us about micro bits. A micro bit is a little object that is your commuters brain. He showed us a website that you  can make your own micro bit and how to send a message.  We had to work in a group of two my partner was Renny, Renny was doing a big help to try and get it finished. Mr Kinane gave us a challenge how fair we can send a message from. The farthest group could send a message 105 STEPS!! After we had done that Mr Kinane showed and something called a cricket. A cricket is something that you put a micro bit in it with another micro bit that is plugged in your chrome book and you have, a gate when you press button A and B the gate with move Mr Kinane gave us a cup and a straw and when we got the gate moving, we put it on the cup and put the straw on it and it spine'd around.
