Listening through your teeth

In this presentation i learnt a little bit more about the keys, notes, vibration and tuning that happens with pianos. Some notes can have three strings but the others only have one string.

Our Manaiakalani Film Festival Experiment

Most of last week room 5 and I, and some other classes from team 5 were doing our  Manaiakalani Film. My class and I had to bring a change of clothes in to class to start our film, When we were changed we all went down to Omaru Creek and filmed there. My favorite part of the movie was when I was looking in the bush searching for Rapunzel, The thing that I'm going to aim for next time if I'm in a film festival movie is to try and get into more camera actions, My most challenging moment was trying to climb the rocks and getting up after we had finished filming our scene.

Our Maniakalani film will be released at Hoyts on the big theater screen on a Wednesday morning at 10:00 am or 9:30 and our whole school and all the teachers will be attending this trip and we hope to see more interesting and catching movies good luck to all the teams especially TEAM 5!!

Technological process

Today we were learning about the Technological Process. We made a jelly bean stem structure.
First we did our brainstorm, then research and then our plan and design. When we finished our plan we then created our structure. After creating our structure we then presented it.
Firstly we got given 200 tooth picks and some jellybeans. Then we put the tooth picks into the jellybeans and made our structure. When we tested our structure we thought it was gonna fail, BUT it didn't. The total of books it could hold were 7. We just needed 1 more tooth pick on the side. We also learnt that we need to work as a team and to participate. The team that won was my team. Our structure was the strongest. Our structure was strong because we put 2 tooth picks into 1 jelly bean.






Our plan was on the green paper under neath the jelly beans. Our structure turned out different. It was going to be A small structure but then we thought that it would brake straight away. So we made it wide!!!!!!!!
