Probability Fun

Easter Hunt

PM Jacinda Ardern has announced that the Easter bunny is an essential service. This means that while we are in lock down he can still deliver eggs I love Easter eggs. She has also challenged us to create New Zealand's biggest Easter egg hunt. She has shared a picture of an egg for people to colour in and leave outside on their gate or in a window. people are allowed to go find them in there bubble.

Mum and I coloured in some eggs and stuck them to our fence for other children to find when they are out walking. Mum found some maths easter puzzles as well. I had to do the math and then work out the colour to colour in each piece of the picture of the Easter bunny sitting in an egg.  We stapled these to our fence to.

It was eggcellent and fun.

scavenger hunt

We had to go on a scavenger hunt and find things of every letter of the alphabet. I climbed in and on some things so that mum could take photos.

an apple after I had finished eating it.
Dad and I planted all the seeds from the
apple and this is the only one that grew.

people at my mum and dads wedding signed. 

lots of people have put bears in their 

window for the lock down.

water balloons at the neighbours.

Bored At Our House

Bored 

at our house we were so bored we decided to sort all of our lego. We found we Had 3 60 litre containers full  of lego. We started by sorting it into colours which meant we had buckets and buckets Full of Lego all over our floor. we found all of the lego books and started making the sets all over again we had some competitions.

 It was me and my brother vs my mum and dad my brother and I always won. So far we have built Two firestations, two planes, a massive yellow truck, a police truck, a airport, a airport bag carrier and two fishing boats while I was typing this my mum was building a police station.

 all of this lego building is encouraging us to work together and build teamwork the thing i have enjoyed most about lego building is when I find a piece the my family cant find

do you have lego and do you like to build??? 

Moon

Living on The Moon

If I was living on the moon I would expect it to be cold, lonely, strange and boring.  I would take all my Favourite foods, games and puzzles before leaving earth so that I was happy for a while.  When i run out of food I will come back to Earth.  

I may try to grow some trees so that there would be oxygen for humans to live there without wearing a mask.  I would try to also grow some apple trees, banana trees and coconut trees so that i have some food.  I would have to use some Bonemeal (from Minecraft) which helps the trees grow faster.  All I have to do is make the Bonemeal touch the tree and it will be fully grown with fruit ready to eat. 

I would like to walk around the whole moon so that I can see how long it would take. I am guessing this would take a very long time so I will need to take some supplies with me to survive.  In my Moonwalker vehicle i would pack food and water.  

I think it would be hard to live on the moon forever, would you like to live on the moon?

Ice Cream

Ice Cream 

this week at the Ellenbroek ice cream factory we have just made a new ice cream flavour. The new flavour is Cookies and Cream Goodie gum drops. we are going to get it out on the streets today and get selling. It is crunchy and chewy. It smells like Chocolate, Vanilla and melted lollies

 We had to test it and get our pet dog to taste it.  It is a special chocolate so the dog wont die when they eat it. The vanilla is creamy like milk and your pet cats will love it. Our great grandmas favorite flavours were cookies and cream and goodie gum drop so we mooooshed them together and made a new flavour. The Oreo was The finest Oreo in the world.

If you want to try it you have to get ready for us to launch it. You will have to pay heaps of money but it will be worth it.    

  

Animals

If I could be any animal....

I would love to be a narwhal. My main reason for wanting to be a narwhal is because they are cool and they have a big horn. They get to swim in the ocean and I love swimming too. They live in cold places like Antarctica and the north pole and I like the snow so we would be similar.  Did you know my horn is 10ft long???

A typical day for narwhal James would be

1. wake up from my sleepy sleep under the ice

2. search for food and play with my narwhal friends 

3. swim fast to keep away from the predators

4. and go back to sleep
