Wordtoons

In the last two days Room 1 has been learning how to do Wordtoons, a technique where you turn a word into a picture.

This is one by the inventor of Wordtoons, you should try it at home.



We started by creating a dog, then we did a spy and then we had a go at creating our own name into a Wordtoon. These are some of the works that we drew, see if you can find the names hidden in these pictures.

NRL Auckland nines

The NRL Auckland nines is all about 16 teams playing rugby league to win a trophy, the warriors won all games apart from the cowboys. I play for Glenora bears and on Monday I was signing in for rugby league I saw the cowboys at my club rooms. I got a poster for free with their signature and they signed my Glenora jacket it was awesome and after that we went home.The cowboys won against the broncos and won the NRL Auckland Nines but I did not watch the tournament.

America's cup

New Zealand has won the first race by fifteen seconds and there were four marks and USA and New Zealand went around them.

The second race was delayed because the wind was too strong and New Zealand and USA nearly crashed in to each other that's why.

America's cup

The two races are delayed today because the wind is too strong in San Francisco so they are going to probably race tomorrow.

New Zealand needs to win two more races, USA has to win seven more races

America's cup

On Sunday Oracle bet New Zealand because the yacht nearly tipped over but somehow it didn't tip over and the second race they won and Oracle lost by 2.10 and this morning New Zealand lost the first race by 3 seconds.

Location:Norval Road,Henderson,New Zealand

America's Cup

I was watching Oracle take on New Zealand in yacht racing New Zealand has 5 points and America has 1 point in the big race. America is choosing to pull out of the race because they are afraid that they are going to lose the rest of the races. New Zealand is going to get the trophy made of real silver and America is going to race New Zealand again tomorrow. I bet New Zealand is going to win! I enjoy watching New Zealand beat Oracle and the boats look interesting and I am wonder who is going to win.

What is Biosecurity?

Biosecurity poster by Carys
 

On Monday we were learning about biosecurity and what it is.  I learned that biosecuity has a company that is trying to keep diseases away from New Zealand safe.  Here are some diseases or risks, rock snot (didymo),  pests and the red vented bulbul. The red vented bulbul is a bird that has a red patch on its bottom and is trying to destroy fruit. By Francis
