The oil spill, Turangawaewae and Otago problem solving

 Kia ora whanau! Kei te pehea koutou? 

This week in the kaupeka hub we have been doing some very fun learning. In maths, I was chosen for a problem solving competition. We answered five questions on a test, and I can't wait to get back my results. One of the questions that I found hard was this, 

You have to figure out what the letters mean on this question. Remember, A is one letter the whole time. Same with B and C. Try figure it out and answer it in the comments.

Okay, next is my Writing. This week we were writing poems about our turangawaewae and we had to do something called show don't tell when you have to show them about your place but you write it down. It was quite hard to do but here is mine.

In the distance, you see only sky,   

Waves are crashing right before your eye,  

With the bright warm sun, way up high.

You dive in the water, it makes you freeze,

You notice the water is like a cool breeze,

Then you dive again, the sand scraping your knees.

It’s time to go home, you’ve had a lovely lucky day,

You want some ice cream, so you go and pay,

And then it's time to go to bed and pray,

That tomorrow will be just like today.

Now last but not least, reading. This week for reading we were challenging the text with questions. We did this on a google drawing and added some pictures. Here is mine so far: (I might need to change some things)

Thank you for reading my blog. Can you guess where my turangawaewae is from reading the text?
