Masterton Sports Exchange

Heart pounding, feet burning and deep breathing those are just some of the things that I was feeling and doing while I was in Masterton for a sports exchange with Masterton Intermediate.  In week 8 I went to Masterton  to play soccer and do cross country against their school along with some other students from H.N.I playing lots of other enjoyable sports.  Over 2 exciting days and 1 extraordinary night our school won and lost lots of different sports, but in the end Masterton won 6 and we won ...12.  So we ended up taking the cup home again...but we also won another cup - the staff cup!  All the staff that were there from both schools went head to head in a bowling competition and again we took that cup as well.

Explanation Writing: The Digestive System

The Digestive System.

Have you ever wondered where your food goes? Your chewed up food goes through the digestive system.  The digestive system is made up of lots of body organs. There is the esophagus, the liver, the stomach, the pancreas, the large intestine, the small intestine and a few others.

As soon as the food you are eating goes into your mouth your saliva dissolves the food so it it soft.  Your saliva forms when you are looking at food. The tongue pushes food down your throat called bolus.  The food goes down the esophagus. The esophagus is 25cm long.

After the food has gone down the esophagus it goes into the stomach. Your stomach is the shape of a j.  Your stomach stores all the food that you eat. Inside the stomach acids and enzymes break it down into liquid.

Your liver is up in your abdomen.  It is an important part of the digestive system. The liver is the largest solid organ in the human body.  Three of the big jobs it does are cleans your blood, It produces an important digestive liquid called bile and It stores energy in the form of a sugar called glycogen.  All the waste that your body doesn’t need gets carried into the intestine and out of your body when you poop. Other waste processed by the liver goes through your blood to your kidneys and out in your pee.'

So now you know where your food goes once you have eaten it.  When someone asks you where your food has gone you can tell them, it goes through your digestive system.

Whakapapa Homework

This is what I found out when I was doing my Whakapapa homework about my Mum and my Nana.

I found out that they both did naughty stuff at school.  My Nana used to eat her lunch in French class and my mum skip maths and work on her photography instead.  They both went to the same intermediate which is Hastings Intermediate.  Also they went to the same high school which is Karamu. My Nana went to Karamu High School for the whole time and my Mum only went there for one year and then went on to Havelock High. They went to different primary schools. My Nana went to Hastings Central School and my Mum went to Parkvale School like me. Also they have different favourite subjects: my Mum loved art and my Nana loved science.

My Upside-Down Art!

On Thursday last week  Room 12B did some upside down art.  Miss Kay put a black and white picture on our desk plus a plain piece of paper.  The photo was put on our desk upside down and we weren't  aloud to turn the picture down while we were drawing and the hard part was we had to draw the picture upside down.  This is how it turned out (below)...
