I was so excited but I had fear running up and down my spine. We got there. James gave as some instructions on how to get to the cave. We had to find swamp a old tree over 100 years old and then we will find the cave. We got a few instructions before we entered the dark deep cave. I took my first couple steps into the cave then knew it was going to be awesome. As I was walking there was a water fall. We sore huge crayfish and small ones proberly as just smaller then a pencial. Georgia shined her torch at a spot in the cave and out  came about 4 or 5 wetas the size of your hand. They were gross. As we got closer to the end of the cave we sore some glow worms. They were pretty. Glow worms are things that hang. We mde it to the end. James said "who wants to crawl through the small space. I did it. I had to go down on my tummy. It was averagely hard. Once we were out of the small bit we went back with our torches of. It was pitch black. We were out. Zara, Georgia and I went back in all alone with no adult to show us the way. We went in a line. Then Thomas, Maraki and jaiden came in to save when we didn't need saving. Then Thomas said " you wasted half of our life".  When we got out of the cave we had a biscuit and some photos. You should have seen how dirty we all were!!!

I gazed the at little silver car slowly driving down the road. There's no going back now said the little voice inside my head. The pitch blackness was swallowing everything up. My legs were purple and numbing. The door slides open as if we were going into paradise, but it was actually a airport massive and cold.


 My eyes widen when I see the humongous que of people flying Qantas. Then stare at the tiny little line of people flying Jet star and Air New Zealand. There is like no one there. Anyway time ticking. Hopefully there not all on my plane!

At long last the long que was finished. Well for us at lest! We went to a counter with a lady with a big cheesy grin on her face and her beautiful brown hair in a high bun. She scanned our passports then just suddenly stopped, took a glance at Nelson and then that's when the nerves struck me.

 “He's a boy right"? She asked.
 “Yes why"? mum answered.
 “Because it says he's a female”.
“oh my gosh" mum said in shock.
 The lady guided us to the end of the airport terminal and we waited. I was so nervous. Is it me or is it getting hot in here. Thoughts were flying through my mind.  Will they let us out of the country?
 “Calm down" said mum.
  How does she my mum expect me to calm down? I mean seriously. G wiz

 The lady returned.“ so we just rung Canberra, and they said if we let you out of the country to Sydney than they have to let you go out of Sydney from perth".
What a relive. I can't wait to see my dad in Perth.

Kiwi the kiwi goes fishing.

Description: Hiwi the kiwi came to our school and tought us about fishing and what will keep you safe. 

Hey, you.  Do think you have been obeying the fishing law? I bet you aren't so listen up. 

How many of you have a life jacket? Probably about   50%   out of   100%   have them and  25% were them. So what I'm trying to say is you must be wearing a life jacket at all times. I mean what if your boat sinks and you not wearing a life jacket? You will most properly drown and if you don't well your one of the lucky ones. So just wear a life jacket. 

Every one wants a chance at fishing right? Well if you don't ho with the rules no one will.you must put the little fish back so than they can grow and you can go big and then you can catch then and eat them with your fish and chips. Oh and the big fish let them have baby's so that there will be more fish for everyone. Fish for the future.

Ok now. You might think this is the most dumbest idea ever but you should have a wet towel on your boat at all times. If you don't and you pick up a fish with your hand your bare  hands it's gonna go off and taste gross. But with a wet towel it will stay nice and fresh.

Now do we think we're allowed to fish anywhere even in the marine reserve? WRONG!! Your not allowed to fish everywhere and definitely not a marine reserve, no no no no! You are not and never will be allowed to fish in a marine reserve because that's were all the special fish are. You will get in a lot of trouble.

So remember this it can save your life and your money from paying fines. Also....

FISH FOR THE FUTURE. 

HIWI the kiwi taught me that and all of this. Hope you learnt something. Bye.

Writing sample| Heat and Temperature.

WALT: inform

DESCRIPTION: Write an explanation about something you have learned about energy.

  

Heat and temperature

Did you know that heat and temperature are not the same? Well if you just answered yes you are wrong! Oh but no need to panic I'm gonna tell so sit back relax and read on......

Did you know that heat and temperature are not the same thing? Heat can only be something hot/warm and temperature can be something warm and cold. A couple of weeks ago we did an experiment with warm cold and room temperature water. First we put one finger in the cold water and another in the warm water at the same time. We left that in for about 20-30 seconds then we put them in the room temperature water for about the same time. The finger that I put in the cold water was cold and the hot water was hot because the atoms were trying to get to the temperature of the water. 

Thermometers 

People use a thermometer to see what the temperature is. You might use a thermometer at home if you spike to see what your temperature is.Another experiment we did was leaving the thermometer outside over night. But before we did that we looked to see what the temperature is. It was 21.c. When we got it out the next day it was at 15.c. Everyone got a chance to look at what the temperature went up to 30.c. Me and someone else left it on the table for a few minutes and it went down to 25.c. Diagram below.

Self assessment:  I think that I did a good job but next time I could plan and add more verbs.

Buddy assessment: Wow Maia, That's the best intro I've ever heard!!! Awesome job but next time add in a bit more detail on why heat and temperature are not the same. Georgia O :)

James gave as some instructions on how to get to the cave. We had to find swamp a old tree over 100 and then we will find the cave. We got a few instructions before we entered the dark deep cave. I took my first step in the cave. As I was walking there was a water fall. We sore huge crayfish and small ones proberly as just smaller then a pencial. Georgia shined her torch at a spot in the cameand about 4 or 5 wetas the size of your hand came out. They were gross. As we got closer to the end of the cave we sore some glow worms. They were pretty. Glow worms are things that hang. We mde it to the end. James said "who wants to crawl through the small space. I did it. I had to go down on my tummy. It was hard. Once we were out of the small bit we went back with our torches of. It was pitch black. We were out. Zara, Georgia and I went back in. We went in a line. Then Thomas, Maraki and jaiden came in to save when we didn't need saving. Then Thomas said " you wasted half of our life".  When we got out of the cave we had a biscuit and some photos. You should have seen how dirty we all were!!!
