In science, we are learning about forces and friction so we made blow carts to see who could go the furthest our cart is called the Fire Pheonix 283 The original. Our main idea was to have our cart being pulled by a parachute that will be tapped to the front of our cart when we tested it worked well and went far. So we made a few modifications like making the sail cardboard and making the sail more sturdy so we are ready to see how it goes. Here are some photos of our final design. We made our cart with a wood base, Tape, String, Cardboard, and Wheels. Unbalanced force means something will move in a certain direction because there is more force it that direction and balanced mean something will not move because all the forces are balanced in all directions. Our team worked well because we made a plan and communicated with each other.

DTE Growing NZ innovation challenge.
Introduction
In DTE we have been creating a solution to a problem for the Growing NZ innovation challenge.
DLO

Reflection
I found this experience horrible because half my group was doing nothing leaving me and Rosa to do all the work which really annoyed me. If I had a better group I probably would have enjoyed it more.
I enjoyed solving the problem and I like the idea to crass a fava bean with a watermelon.

Maths Learning objective 1
In Maths we have taken a new approach to learning where we pick a learning objective, learn about it then complete a task to show we have learned about that topic.
Our learning objective was Represent objects with drawings and Models.
We made shapes with our hands and took pictures to show you here is our evidence.

Learning objective 2
I math we are taking a new approach to learning where we have to take a learning objective, learn about it and the do an activity to show that we have learned about it.
Our learning objective is to identify classes of two- and three-dimensional shapes by their geometric properties.
We needed to know what logic smart is and how to show what we learned in that way.
We shared our learning by playing math games related to 3d objects and the properties of the shapes.
Her is the evidence:

Tomorrow when the war began Chapter 10 Questions
1. Because It is dangerous and they will be killed if they are spotted. He tells her that it isn't safe where they are.
2. They check every corner before going around to make sure they won't be spotted and they slow down before they get to town.
3. Mr. Clement is reluctant to help because he wanted to keep himself safe and he wanted to keep the medical supplies for himself.
4. Homer has gotten more serious and is starting to take charge and be a leader.
5. There are the experienced and non-experienced soldiers the experienced treat the inhabitants better and with more respect the non-experienced soldiers do.
6. I think Robyn had the strength to carry lee because he was in danger and they are friends so she tried hard to save him.
7. The group has decided to pick up lee in a bulldozer (Ellie's idea) put him in the bucket (Homers idea) and take him to three pig lane (Robyns Idea) and move him into a car (Ellie's idea) and take him out of town away from the soldiers. I think it will work because the dozer can take some hits and then they can get away fast in a car.
8. I think the people that tried to be heroes died or were captured.

CARR Licenses
1. The CARR licenses are a system with different levels and different rewards for each level. You achieve each level by having good behavior the better the behavior the higher the level.
2. We are doing this to improve behavior in our class because we will all be trying for green.
3. I place myself as a yellow but I will be trying my hardest to get a green.
4. I will improve the amount of work the grade of work and how I do my work to hopefully get to the green level.
