The smart bed that makes itself

A Spanish furniture company OHEA has come up with a bed that makes itself. Why go to all the fuss on wasting money a bed. I think people should not go buy it because it is a bad idea and who came up with it is smart but lazy.    

I think that this is such a bad idea, don’t you. If you are that lazy then you should just get your fitness going, and not go and get a self making bed. I think it’s a great idea but people around the world should not be so lazy. If you make your own bed it just takes about 5 minutes and you will get good at making beds. That means that you can teach your kids and then you will not have to complain about your children not making their beds.



What my group had to do for reading was that we had to write negative writing about a article on Dog-o-news. It was quite funny to write a persuasive writing on a bed that I really want.

  • Riffle and it has long range sight on it also night vision.
  • Flying power so he can fly high into the sky when flying away or chasing someone.

  • Poison x-ray machine gun.

This is my list of items that would be on a super villan's shopping list. Some of the thing are quite nasty. If you can think of any more things that would be on a super villan's shopping list then leave a comment.

Retell of the three little pigs

Once upon a time, there lived three little pigs. Their names were  Flett, Olivia and Katrina. One day their mother said to them, “ it is time for you to move on and live in your own.” So they packed their bags and the next day they went down the street. They tried to find something to build with. Flett the smallest pig was not the smartest pig in town so he found a person that was selling paper, so he brought two tonnes of green A4 paper and started to build his house out of green paper. Katrina, the middle sized pig, found a man selling glass. She brought one million dollars of glass and made her house in three hours. Olivia the smartest pig of them of all went to the shop and brought lots of steel and concrete. She got some men to help her build her house and they started to build it straight away. After a week of living in their house a small strong Skunk came to Flett’s not strong house made out of paper. The skunk said to him, “Let me in let me in little pig.”
“Not by the sound of my hungry rumbly tummy”
“ Then I will pour a load of my truck water on your house little piggie.”
So the skunk poured all of his water from his truck on the poor little piggies house. When the skunk poured the water on the pig’s house it all fell over and Flett ran all the way to Katrina’s house, The next day the small strong skunk came to Katrina’s house and he said,“Let me in, let me in little pig.”
“Not by the sound of my hungry rumbly tummy,” squealed the two little pigs.“ Then I will get my bombs and bomb your place out.”
So the skunk got his bombs and bombed Katrina’s house up.
Flett and Katrina ran to Olivia’s house. Flett and Katrina told Olivia what the skunk did to them. So Olivia got her gun and when the skunk came to her house she was ready. The skunk said to the three pigs, “Let me in let me in little pig.”
“Not by the sound of my hungry rumbly tummy,”
“ Then I will come down your chimney and eat you all up.” The three pigs were ready for the skunk and when he came down Olivia shot him and ate him for lunch the next day.
And they lived happily ever after.

     

Te Reo Maori

He aha tenei. Means What is this.
He tapaono tena. Means That is a hexagon.
Homai te tapaono. Means Pass me the hexagon.  
anei.Anei in maori means here you go. 
kia ora. thank in Maori is kia ora or ka pai.
He tapaono whero. Means a red hexagon.
Homai  te tapaono kowhai.  Means Pass me the yellow hexagon.



Hexagon


Here is a list of Te Reo Maori colours.

Blog Review On Katrina's Blog

This is Katrina's blog. I like her blog because she puts a lot of effort into her posts. I think it is a great idea to take rubbish home because then you don't have to pay lots of money for the rubbish truck to come to our school and come collect the rubbish. Another idea is to Reuse paper, what I mean by that is if you use one side then use the other so you save trees.
Please make some comments on her blog.

My Fotobabbles

This is my fotobabble it is about the sea and the beach. Here is the link to the website

The Environment

 Today Sarah from the Hastings district council came to Parkvale School.
 Her job is to protect the environment, the environment is lots of diffident
 thing like trees, houses, plants, people,animals and schools. There are
 lots of rules about the environment like you are not allowed to cut down trees
 that have to get permission before you do it. If you built a house on Te-Mata
peak then you have to make sure that your house is either green or brown.

Camp part 2

The Most Amazing Camp Ever!


On the 2nd of April 2012 room 18 and 19 went to Mountain Valley, we went 2nd to the 4th week ten. We went for a school camp, The activities we did were Horse Trekking, Rafting, Bivouacking Fear Factor and much more.


It was sad because we did not go Horse Trekking because it was too windy and it was raining. Horses don’t like that kind of weather. If you go Horse Trekking or Riding in that weather they will go all frisky and try and buck you off.

Rafting was so much fun because we had Deon. he was very funny. We went Rafting on the Mohaka River. I fell out about 8 times. The worst time I fell in was the 4th time when we were going over a rapid I fell out went under the raft and stayed under for about 10 seconds. It was freaky because my beane  went over my head and I couldn’t breath. But it was fun.

Bivouacking was so fun because Lily, Erin and I were in a one. It was a three person one. Bones had made it for us it had a big, long and strong piece of wood. It was raining when we got to our bivouac. We had to wear a lot of clothes not jamies because they would get too wet. The bivouac were really small and low to  the ground so it was hard to move around.

Fear Factor was fun and room 18 had theirs first and they challenged some room 19 people too do a challenge. I was I off those people and it was yucky. It had weet bix, hot chili sauce.

The best part about camp was the rafting because I thought it was a life time experience and if was very very fun.

Thank you everyone at Mountain Valley I had a great time and a great experience. And thank you Miss Hill, Miss Garland, Miss Hodgson and all the parents that helped.

This is my timeline it is about Alison Shanks. Today she is coming to Parkvale School. She has won many medals.

Summarising for the book enemy at the gate

Uncle Frank, Meg and Aunt Edie came to the family's house. Mum told then to sh as Uncle Frank, Aunt Edie and Meg came in. Aunt Edie said to  Mum that she would help in the kitchen but Mum said that she did not have to they have just been for a long drive. That night Uncle Frank and Aunt Edie sleeped in Mum and Dad's room, Meg Jessie and Flo and Johnny and you can sleep on the floor.  Uncle Frank wanted to have a  private talk with the adults. While they had their private talk as kids were talking about the disease and how many people had been killed by it. In the morning Uncle Frank wanted to look at some cars, Aunt Edie wanted to go shopping and then go have some morning tea in town. Jessie did not like Meg when she got up. “ Meg’s pretty but she kicks.”


This is summarising for the literary circle. The Book is Enemy at the gate. It is a very good book.

Camp Part 1


This is my camp reflection.
My favourite thing was “Fear Factor.” First our teams had to number each other. Then Miss Garland called out a number and you had to put a blindfold on and eat the food. I was number four and I had to eat pate it was tasty I loved it but other people didn’t. I felt really nervous before I ate my food but I got over it. We got a lolly when we finished our food.

Games in the barn
On the second day room 18 went white water rafting and room 19 went to the woolshed and played games. My favourite was elephant trunk where you had to put one of your hands under your bottom for a tail and your other hand out in front of you as your trunk. You have to join hands like an elephant.The aim of the game is to get all of the hoops over you and your team, you are also timed. My team won over all and we got some lollies.

Balloon Towers
Balloon towers were fun you got 15 balloons and a roll of tape. The adults cheated because they stuck their  last balloon too the roof. They got eliminated in the end. My team worked really well together and we won overall. We got a little bit of candy cane.

What May Happen In 2100

Transport
I think that all people will have auto pilot cars, because they are too lazy. That means that there will not be any crashes. People will use anything for petrol because there will not be a such thing called PETROL. Cars will have have lots more gadgets E.G (Xbox 360, internet and much more.     


Health
People will be much more lazy and will get bigger because they don’t exercise. There might be robots that commend to E.G ( Music One Direction Up All Night.) People Will not go on walks because food will be delivered right to your door by robots! People will get so lazy that there muscles will dissolve and you will not be able to walk any more. Everyone will be in wheelchairs.

Education
I think there will not be schools because you will be talking to your teacher on Skype. You would not have to get up early to get to school. You could do all your work in the after-noon.

Nitro Circus



Preparing to start 5..4.3..2...1 Get Ready Set Go!! I was riding my monster truck through the dusty desert. The hot sand was as hot as the morning sky which was burning my eyes  coming through the open window “Go faster!” my mate screamed I thought that I should go faster and not chicken out but I was scared and I did not want to muck up and not land it I wanted it to be all perfect. Driving a monster truck is much different than a normal car because its more bouncy and larger. I could smell the hot sand going up my nostrils it was disgusting. The sand tasted like rotting dirt it was gross. Oh no here comes the cops.

Qualities Of Me

These are the qualities of me. I used wordle to make it here is the link: http://www.wordle.net/create

My first week reflection



  • I found using paint was easy because when I'm happy I enjoy myself I find things easy.
  • I felt proud when I finish my work Early because than I can go on to my class’s blog and play games on there.
  • I felt excited when I found out that I was in the computer class and my teacher was Miss Garland because Katrina said that Miss Garland is a cool teacher and I am lucky to have here.
  • I found different using the laptop is much easier than writing because I am not so good at writing, and you don’t wast time getting your books out.
