Forces in action outside Room 2 today!


Forces and friction at work!


Today Room Two were making their cars today, the students helped make the cars holding the wheels and axles still while the glue dried. Some of the cars wheels were wonky which made the cars drive in a bobbing motion which was very funny. Each team decorated their cars then each team sent their cars down the ramp. Mr Betts marked on the desks how far each team's car travelled. Thanks to Ocean for taking some of the photos. The next step is adding a propulsion system to the cars to see if they can travel by ballon power.

Fun day Friday!

We had a lovely day on Friday! 
We started the day with house meetings... Look at the amazing Ngarimu house! (The sun was very bright) 
We then had kiwisport with Ata. We learnt some new games, and played a great game of sneak up granny! 
After kiwi sport we had mind ball. This was chance for us to show our focus and calm minds. If our mind was calmer than the other person , the ball moved along the machine to help us win! 

To finish off the day we got together to have a little sing song. It was a nice way to end a busy day! Room one and two love singing the songs on our blog and the songs we are learning in Kapa Haka.
