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 

Lockdown

Lock down at my house - day 5!

At my house for lock down my brother and I were riding our motor bikes. In our backyard we made a track with a big jump.  First we had to ride over a jump, around the back of the fort then over another jump on the wee hill and then through the hockey balls which were our cones and then back to the start.   

I have also been having lots of fun playing video games with my friends.  Mum thinks I have been playing online games too much but I say "its the school holidays mum". I have also been using my device to contact my friends on snap chat.

Because it has been raining a lot we have been inside lots of the time. we have been sorting all the Lego at our house into its colours. then we are going to sort them back into their original set and I think this is going to take a very long time.

maths

Hello. My name is James this week in math we have been doing math differently this week. 

Math this week has been different to other weeks because you had to fold paper into shapes and then write math problems inside those shapes. Then we had to figure out those problems it was fun. I hope we do it every week from now on. I was challenged to push till I finished. It was hard at first but when I understood I loved to do it because it is very efficient. And it was hard to do the folding.

Do you think it would be easier this way?

LEGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi my name is James.

On the fifth of August we had Rachel come in with lots of Lego that we could play with. She made us do three different hard challenges. The first one was who could build the biggest tower. My group was coming first for a while but then people joined together and overtook my group. We came in third though our tower was 1 m and 23 cm. The tallest tower was 1 m and 53 inches.

Then we had a challenge of who could build a car that goes the farthest. My group did kinda good. Our cars didn't go that far we came 2nd to last we didn't know how to make the Technic car so we got Pieta who kindly built our car for us we built our Lego car by ourselves our cars didn't go that far.

The last challenge was to build a bridge that could hold books, pens and whiteboard markers my group was good we where destroying everyone else's but then ours collapsed I was sad.     




What fun would you have with Lego? can you beat my group?
