Two baby boys were born on the same day. Their names were Peffy and Pedro. Their mums were best friends. Growing up Peffy and Pedro  were also best friends. Peffy was active and Pedro was a couch potato. Pedro wanted the new game but didn't get it. On their birthday Peffy got the new video game. Pedro wanted it, the next week on their way to school. Peffy said he gave the game to his cousin. This made Pedro sad and hated video game. A few years later Peffy opened a camp and gave Pedro a job. The kids that were attending the camp were the kids of the people who bullied him. Now he wants to hijack the kids video games.  

The Science Roadshow

The Science Roadshow

Today at school The Science Roadshow came over. We went along with 7 TZ to watch the show. We were presented by Shane and Anna. The first thing they taught us was about fire and ice and the one thing they had in common temperature. First they showed us how low and how hot temperatures can get in some places in new. Also how dangerous it can be in a car on a hot summer day.They showed us how the same chemical can react differently when exposed to oxygen. They melted a solid piece of metal with the different heat of fire. They showcased how smoking can cause a explosion on factories.

After that we were allowed to walk around and try some the experiments. By some the  experiment there was cards. With the names on some experiments and ha to explain it to the teachers. There was a variety of things to do. Here are some pictures.

A camera the shows body heat.

A chair that spins fast but then slows down when spreading your arms.

Seeing how important your senses are.

Afterwards another person came in and taught us about how human and plants bodies work. He talked about urine and how much the human body can produce. He also showed how plants deal with their urine by dropping it down in a leaf. Then showed us how much poo a human can have in a year. Then at the end they told us to remember Mrs Gren.

Oamaru Stone Carving: Finishing my Design

Today in the workshop I have almost finished my Koru. All I need to do is finish my sand papering.

I have also finished my planing for my big project.

This is it here:

The top of the circle is Ranginui (sky father) and the bottom is Papatuanuku (earth mother).

Message
Papatuanuku and Ranginui even though they are separated they still have undying loving for they eachother. So this design represents the unbreakable bond between two people. About the design it self Papatuanuku is the koru and I imagine that papa is sprouting up towards Rangi.
How will I make it?
The stone it will be made out of is Oamaru stone. I will use alot of tools. A mullet, chisel, cheese grater and a file. Then lastly I will sand paper the design.  

Oamaru Stone Carving: Design

Today in the workshop we shaped our Oamaru stone Koru. I had to use the file and saw to shape it into a smooth koru.

Today I learnt how to shape a curve Oamaru Stone.

Next Time I will finnish my planning.
