Magic Number Week 5

Thank You Miss Tumahai

The Moon

The Moon was probably made 4.5 billion years ago when a large object hit the Earth and blasted out rocks that came together to orbit round the Earth. The Moon is much smaller than the Earth. It is airless, waterless and lifeless. The gravity of the Moon, causes two high tides on the Earth every day.

The first person to walk on the Moon was the American astronaut, Neil Armstrong. He stepped out of his space craft, the Eagle, on 21 July 1969 and said these famous words, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind”.

Telling the Time

Roccket

My rocket is going to blast off into space. The engines were shaking because it was so powerful.My rocket travels to different planets to see what they are like.

The Sun

The sun is the largest star in our solar system, however there are many stars like it in the wider universe. The earth is just the right distance from the sun that our planet is not too hot or too cold. The light from the sun takes 8 minutes to reach earth and gives life to plants.  Astronauts will never be able to land on the sun as it reaches 5500 degrees celsius - 100x hotter than humans can stand.

The sheer size of the sun means that its gravitational pull forces all the planets in our solar system to orbit around it. Born 5 billion years ago, the sun has been producing heat and light for a very long time.

superheroes

All the superheroes were so brave they had colourful costumes of all variety.  They  had heaps of power and the muscular green man was going to fight the bad guys. Spiderman betrayed the good guys and the good guys win.

The End.

Forces on a Kite

Gravity is the force that pulls everything down to the earth. Gravitational force pulls everything to the centre of the earth. The bigger the mass, the larger the gravitational force. Without gravity we would all float off into space.

Drag is the force that slows the movement of an object through air or water. As a moving object pushes the water and air out of the way, the water or air pushes back on the object. This drag force is always opposite to the way the object is moving. The drag force increases as the object moves faster.

Thrust is the force that moves an object. When flying a kite, the thrust comes from wind. The thrust must be stronger than the drag to make the object move.

In a plane, thrust comes from your legs.

Lift is the upwards force on the kite. Lift is created by air flowing around the kite. The different speeds of the air flowing around the kite make it lift into the air.

tamarereti

Long ago the sky was dark and had no stars.

Deep in Lake Taupo lived a scary taniwha who ate people when it was dark. One day Tamarereti woke up he felt really hungry. Tamarereti went out fishing and caught lots of fish. He fell asleep and his waka drifted to the other side of Lake Taupo.

Tamarereti was hungry so he cooked his fish. It was dark and he was scared of the taniwha, but he had an idea. On the beach lay many shiny pebbles.

Tamarereti gathered as many pebbles as he could hold and set off in his waka.  As he sailed back to his village, Tamarereti threw the shiny pebbles into the sky where they settled to become the stars of Matariki.

Beach Trip

Room 13 went to the beach in the rain. The umbrellas were in side out because the wind was blowing hard. We ran to the beach ready for excitement. We found hidden clay and we got all dirty because some glant clay ball smacked us. Jermaine got Caleb in the face. Caleb got a clay ball and he threw the clay ball at Jermaine. Moul was getting Soane and he hit Moul. We then worked together to lift up the logs to find crabs. Me and Osa found a spider crab. We got it and we put it in the bucket. All the crabs they climbed out of the bucket. It was time to go and we were all dirty we rolled down the grassy bank to get clean. We run back to school.

Through the water i swam to the other side we kick our feet. Diving under the water we got to the island. Swimming was so much fun.

The Rain

All night long the rain slammed in to the window.
Pouring down out side the rain soaked the washing.
Quickly the little stream turned to a raging river. #
Across Auckland the people cleaned up their houses.

The Bird

Dear Bird,

How did you die? We bless you with all of our heart.

We were walking in the morning on our way to the park when we found you. So Jermaine asked Mr Shaw for a shovel to take care of you. We wanted to take care of you because you are God’s creature.

Lee took the shovel and scooped you up gently. We carried you to the farm and we stopped under a tree.

Anthony started digging the hole, then everybody had a turn. Finally we put you in the hole and Lee said a prayer for you.

We all walked nicely back to our class.

We love you and we hope that you rest in peace and live with God.

From The Beautiful Boys and their Queen.
