How to Ride a Bike Hello, my name is Rangatira and I am here  to show you how to do tricks on a bike. The materials you will need are a bike, helmet, and pads. The first step is to put on your helmet.  The second step is to put on pads. The last thing you need is a bike to get on the bike. You need to put your hands on the bars and lift your feet over the body of the bike.  Now to ride the bike you need to push the pedals forward with your foot then do it with your other foot. Trick 1: How to do a Wheelie. You need to push the pedals forward and lean back. Keep on pedaling. This will make the front part of your bike lift.  Trick 2 : How to Wheelie with One Hand. First, you need to make sure that your hands on the handlebars are comfortable so when you ride you don't fall off. Do a wheelie and then slowly take one hand off the handlebar. Trick 3: How to Jump. Put your hands on the bars and while riding pull the ...

Science Experiment Whaea Breeze gave us some items to put into a bucket full of water. We had to make a prediction about which objects would float and which would sink. I learned about buoyancy. If an object is buoyant then it can float. Objects that have air pockets and have a hollow inside can float. Objects that are denser, will sink. The items we tested were a tea bag, can of beans, a cube, a stick and a sponge.

What did we do at the NHEW3 commonwealth games day? On commonwealth games day we had to finish making our  bracelets,  headpieces, flag designs and getting our costumes ready to show off at the opening ceremony. The country we were representing was Samoa. We also held an  awesome costume parade where the other classes showed off the costumes that they made for the opening ceremony. The countries that participated were Tonga, Jamaica, Canada, and England. The sports we participated in were weightlifting, hockey, gymnastics, ping pong and other commonwealth sports. It was pretty fun and at the end of the commonwealth games day, B9  had come second for our hard work.

  M&MS In B9 we were learning about statistics. My friends and I had to run our own statistical investigation. We had to find out what the most popular colour was in an M&M packet. The first thing we did was separate the M&Ms into groups according to their colour. Then we had to see which M&M was the most popular and the least popular. In our packet the most popular colour was orange. The other groups had different popular colours like blue or brown. We then had to create a bar graph out of the M&Ms and record it into our maths books. It was fun because we got to eat them at the end.

SCIENCE EXPERIMENT In B9 our class was learning about the science physics. We were doing a science activity to learn about floating and sinking. Here we are testing 2 different kinds of cokes. These are coke zero and vanilla flavoured coke.  What do you think will happen when we dropped these two cokes into the water? Do you think they float or sink? You'll probably think that they will both sink. Yes well, that's what I thought but I was actually WRONG! The vanilla flavoured coke had more molecules which actually made it denser. In other words, it was heavier than coke zero because the coke zero doesn't have as many molecules as the vanilla flavoured coke because of the sugar. 

Adventure Time Blank Eyed Girls One dark night, Fin and Jake went to the library. When they got there they took out a book called creepy stuff to find out information about ghosts that people in the town are talking about. They asked Turtle P the librarian where the blank-eyed girls are. The blank-eyed girls are evil zombies that are killing people, hypnotising them and shooting people. They need to be stopped. So Fin and Jake went on a mission to save the town. They hunted down the blank eyed girls. When they found them they grabbed the blank eyed girls and put them in a jail cell where they were tied up with rope. They will never escape. Now everyone is safe.

In a land far far away, there was a shiny and delicious Candy Kingdom. In the Candy Kingdom was a castle and in the castle was a young charming princess named Princess Bubblegum. Princess Bubblegum is a friend to all but most importantly a scientist. Princess Bubblegum had nothing to do expect to look at a bright blue gem in the middle of her castle. After a while , she had thought of something brilliant to do. “ OH , I should invite every candy from the Candy Kingdom to my party.” So she did. The candies are talking lollies such as  licorice, marshmallow, doughnuts,  peppermint and all those kinds of things.  Princess Bubblegum had no one to help her decorate her castle so she called two heroes Finn and Jake. Finn and Jake are two best friends that are always by each others side when anything is wrong. They are also great and helpful heroes. “Hey, Princess Bubblegum!” Finn and Jake said at the same time. “So why’d you call us?” said Finn. “Oh, so...

What is this?   This is my  commonwealth games poster that my buddy Promise and I created. Whaea Breeze told us to make a poster to see what we knew about the commonwealth games. On this poster we have facts, information, a title and pictures. What did you do?   First, we did a practice poster in our reading book. Then we showed Whaea Breeze. Next, we started to design and create our published poster on an A3 paper. We had to make sure that our poster was colourful and neat. Have you heard about the Commonwealth games?

Adventure time Once upon a time, Finn and Jake went to the library they were talking to Turtle P he is the librarian. Finn and Jake wanted to know about the blank-eyed girls.

Turtle p searched it up on her phone book. She said, “the creepy blank-eyed girls first appeared five years ago!” "Five years ago? That’s when stacheez listeners started to listen to the radio,” Fin whispered to himself. "OH, MY GLOB!!!” Finn yelled. They discussed what they had to do to get rid of the blank-eyed girls. Fin said to Jake, "they are manipulating people so they can believe that they are real and if they think that they are real then they could still be alive in this world!!!” Fin yelled stressfully. So they ran all around the candy kingdom and went to everyone's houses and told everyone that if they ever see any girls with black eyes just act like you can’t see them. Fin and Jack ran to the tree house to eat some ice cream they opened t he door and the blank-eyed...
