ramps

Room13 went to the bike track to make a ramp. We had to work together and we had lots of ideas. We waited nicely while Miss King came with two hammers and nails. We had to hammer the nails into the  wood so the wood doesn’t come off.

Then we got on a bike. We tested the ramp we popped a wheelie and drifted. Lee said that this is amazing this was so fun.We hope we can do this again some times.

Tamarereti Animation

We have been learning the story of Tamarereti. Here is my animation I made with Hyperstudio.

Beside Lake Taupo was a village. In the lake there lived a scary Taniwha who would eat people when it was dark. There were no stars in the sky at night - which made night time very dangerous.

One day Tamarereti went fishing in his waka and he was blown by the wind to the other side of the lake.

After a long sleep, the sky was dark. Tamarereti was afraid of the Taniwha - but he had an idea.

On the beach lay many shiny pebbles. He gathered the pebbles. Tamarereti threw the pebbles into the night sky where they became stars.

Now the sky was too bright for the Taniwha and he stayed hidden.

Tamarereti made it safely home again.
