Since 11 February 2010 they has been some sort of camera in space videoing the sun for five years on time lapse. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory it really clear to see. The video shows lots about how much times it makes massive explosions randomly and if you want to watch to watch it yourself click the link

This year we had learning teams, and with our learning teams we had to make something called an apple tower, because we didn't have an orange for it. We had to work as a team to make a tower out of straws, tape and scissors and it had to be able to hold an apple on it without falling off. It had to be free-standing so you weren't allowed to hold it or tape it to the ground. The challenge was to make it the highest for extra points, and I'm pretty sure our team won.

The Marama way is a like guideline that we follow and we respect it, if we didn't have it Marama team would be harder to understand how we year seven and eights work as a team and independent workers. Some of the things we have to follow is telling the truth always, use manners and kindness. Part of the Marama way is excellence and I want to show that to get a leadership role or a role in taking part in the school roles. I hope to follow all the Marama ways rules through the rest of the year and hopefully be a leader.

Multiple Intelligences I have discovered that I’m a body smart and peoplesmart, I have discovered that I work a lot with my hands and like to work with people. I have learned that I learn a lot different to what I thought, this means that this smarts test I did shows most of what’s my brain is made of. I have learned a lot about me in about two minutes so if u want to know about go to here .

I’m looking forward to . . . Going to tech and learning around the college. Something different I am going to try . . . Sitting next to different people My first impressions in the Marama team . . . That the year eights would settle us in. A goal that I would like to achieve this year . . . To get an award by the end of the year. Something I already know I am going to get better at . . . learning with other students in the class

My opinion Funny (because I make my friends and family laugh) Fun (because  I can come up with creative ideas when bored) Active (because I like playing sports and getting involved with lots of things) Style ( because I like to wear cool clothes, shoes and hats) What I think my parents think of me Helpful Caring Awesome Responsible What I think the teachers think of me Exciting  Helpful Friendly Kind

Same but different I thought the class would be way different because I thought of a more colourful room it sort of is. I like the class though how it is and my favourite part of it is the new classroom which is more colourful than the other parts of the classroom.    

Pakiri beach holiday park It was a nice feeling waking up to a sea breeze and the sunny sky, glittering water and baby’s breathing. When we go out to the beach I can hear people fishing, kids laughing and dogs playing. As my dad pulls out the rod I hear the baby moan while I put up the T.P. I go out to the sea I hear the waves crashing,  I see a boat and people surfing. As we leave I can feel the sand on my legs. Then we go back home and have a nice calm nap.
