Invention process

When we started the enterprise topic we talked about prams. Then we started designing our own inventions. Kahu and I thought up of the Roller Brushes!A pair of shoes that allow you to skate while cleaning. 

 Afterwards Dad and I had a shoe then we added a brush and 2 wheels, then we got all the other parts for another Roller brush. Sorry I can't add a diagram to this page, any ways, back to the contrary. Then the next day at school Kahu and I gave Mr Eeds (the maintenance man) the compartments to make the other roller brush. That's how we got the ROLLER BRUSHES PROTOTYPE ! 

The next day we had Class DRAGON'S DEN, the dragons were Mrs K and Izzie. Only Oscar and Matthew, Samara and Sophie and Daniel went into the finals. For the finals, the finalists from Room 2 (my class), Room 4 and Room 7 preformed in front of the dragons. 


Here is a dragons den video  

My most enjoyable part was: making the prototype at home because I liked using different tools.

The hardest part was: figuring out the script because I couldn't find the right words to use. 

If I was to do this again I would: Make a more high-quality prototype so people get a better Idea of the invention.

I have learned how to: figure out outgoing costs. 

 

The most scariest moment: preforming in the class dragons den because we weren't ready enough.

The most boring part: was figuring out the outgoing costs.

The most embarrassing part: nothing.

How did you feel when talking to the Dragons: nervous because we hadn't shown anything to the class before.

The most breathtaking moment: preforming in front of the dragons because the rest of the kids were there too. 

The most messiest part: nothing.

Pram results

At school we made a pram questionnaire in groups I was with Kahu,  so we all had to ask the parents about their prams using our questionnaire. Here are our questions we used for the parents. And here are the results of the 6 parents we asked. It tells us that Our pram must have brakes, a toddler seat , rubber wheels and a sunshade

scatter plot

Today at school we all made scatter plot graph about our paper planes. We all had to have an assertion, me and Jaylen's was the higher the velocity the further the distance. We have plane 1, plane 2 and plane 3. here it is.

<-

the y-axis( the left line with the numbers)
represents the distance of metres that the plane flew.
the x-axis (the bottom line with the decimals) represents the time of how we threw the plane.

Pangram

Today we learned what a Pangram is. If you don't know what a Pangram is its 1 or 2 sentences that has all the letters of the alphabet.

For example: the quick brown Fox jumps over the lazy dog.

Today we need to make a Pangram on our blogs so here it is.

I said to the silver gargoyle on the wobbly boat "hello jolly man" and he said "zip zap boom fly on the xylophone kick" as he was very dumb and could only count to three and didn't know who the queen was.

Good try Devan - tryicky stuff Mrs K

Trip to Corban's Art centre

Today at 9:00 room 2 ( My class) and room 3 went on a trip to Corban's Art centre in Henderson. There we met Andrew Hall, He made some amazing artwork. When I say artwork I don't mean painting I mean this. Look at the pictures. That's right, he makes awesome creations out of what we would call Rubbish/junk. We all got to make our own cool creations too.

RAP-unzel

Today 3 adults named Ben, Jane and Jack came to our school for a show called: RAP-unzel. Jack changed into other characters and so did Ben, such as Jack, Aladdin a weird hobo guy and more. Jack stayed as simon cow ( not cowl! ) And Ben stayed a Fresh prince rupee. Jane stayed as RAP-unzel most of the time. I enjoyed the part where Fresh Prince Rupee rapped a cool song and made us help him, it was really awesome.
