Term+4+Week+1-4

//**Term 4**//

//**Tuesday**//

//**Today was so AWESOME!!**// //**We went to the Auckland Stardome, it was so cool. When we got there we had morning tea, then we had an education class thing where we sat in these chairs and look up and it is all a big projector and we watched a movie all about our solar system, the many galaxy’s, some constellations, and how stars are formed. After that we had another session about all the planets. Then we were aloud to have a look around. Then it was lunch time and after about an hour of playing we headed back to school. What a great place Stardome is!!**//

//**Wednesday**//

//**Well, today in the first block, we had a list of things to do while Miss Mayall Gloss tested. We had three things to do they were**// //*** 5 Discoveries, 3 wonderings**// //*** Reasearch all 8 planets and fill out the organiser**// //*** Find your 5 favourite Constellations and draw 1**// //**I was the first to finish it was really fun. After morning tea, we did the same but we also did a slide show on the Big Bang. After lunch we did the same also, and then we are going out for a game, more like Water Balloons!!!**//

//**Thursday**//

//**Today in the first block, Bree and I had library. And when we came back it was feed and read. After morning tea we did RLL I guess. After lunch I have a cooking class and I can't wait!!!!**//

//**Friday**//

//**Today in the first block, we did our real copy of our constellation art. We had to draw paterns with pastels ona piece of A4 or A3 paper, then we had to go over the whole thing with black pastel. Then we had to draw on it and all the colours came up and it looks really effective. I drew my Zodiac Sign which is Libra (Scales), I really like mine. They are all going up on the wall. Most people did Zodiac Signs, but not every one. After morning tea we did the same but since I was finished we came back to class to do mathletics, but then we had to log off all the computers! :( So we went back and helped clean up. When every one had finished, Bree, Rosie and I stayed behind to clean up. After lunch, we either updated wikis or we did SSR I updated my wiki. After that we are doing buddy time, I am not quite sure what we are doing for buddy time yet but I am pretty sure it will be round about the same as usual.**//

//**I also found out that my work is being published into a book to find out what story read below:**//

It was time to go in to the P.D room for our meeting with the dragons den. G.C, Max, Harry, Keagan, and I started talking I was getting all my lines mixed up. I thought I was blushing, I was so nervous, I didn’t know if I could continue. But I knew I had too, as I continued I felt I was getting better. I could answer all the questions, say all my lines. But I felt confident at the same time I knew I could do it now. I stood there, saying my lines. Just as I was on my last line Mr. P started giving me the evils, my heart started pounding again. I couldn’t wait until the end now. I knew it had to be soon now, come on come on, I was muttering under my breath. Finally we were finished, we handed them the contract.**//

<span style="background-color: #ff0072; color: #ffffff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 150%;">//**They all made confused faces, I hope it would be enough. They looked up from the contract, and said. . . Yep, we like it. It’s awesome, I felt so relived, we stood there and waited for something to happen. Mr.P made the first move he reached be hind him and got a fifty dollar note and handed it to us!!!**//
