Mothers Day

Yesterday was mothers day.First thing in the morning I went into my mum’s room and said ”happy mothers day” and I gave her my gift it was a giant cupcake pan and she is going to use it today.Then my brother and my Dad gave her a baking book on how to ice a cake and cupcakes and it shows you how to make cute cakes and it is so awesome.And I also gave her a card and so did my Dad and my brother.We mad her pancakes for breakfast with maple syrup and I had some too.

Then we all got ready to g0 into Lower hutt and we went into the mall and we went to the shoe shop and we got my Dad some shoes.Then we went to have some lunch we had subway it was yummy I had a Italian herbs and cheese bread and I had ham and salad and Italian sauce it was yummy! My Mum had a salad rap and my Dad had a salad in a bowl it looked yum and my brother had  the meatball sub it looked yummy.

Then I had to go and get some boots we went to Hannahs but the ones that I liked they did not have my size so we went to Banks shoes but they had some but I did not like them so we went to number 1 shoes but they did not have any that I liked and they were not good quality.

Then my Dad took me and Josh (my brother) to the 2 degrees  phone shop to get more money on me and my brothers phone we got $20 dollars so now I am not going to wast it like I did before.

Then we went home and it was about 5.30 and we cooked dinner we had crispy chicken salad it was yummy.Then we all sat down on the couch and we watched T.V. and then a 9.30 me and my brother went to bed and that was mothers day gone.I think my Mum had a good mothers day and I know I did.

Technology Reflection

Every week at school we got to technology and last term was Mrs Bloxoms class and it was the workshop and this term it is Mrs Holman and she teaches textiles it is like sewing and cooking and things like that.So last week we were practising sewing on the sewing machine  so we had to pare up my partner was Mary.We got given this piece of paper with lines on it and we had to stitch that line with the right number on the sewing machine by turning the dial to the right number.My one was a bit crooked but my last one was not so bad and Mary’s was way much better than my one my one was awful.

So I know that we only sewed paper but we were just practicing but next week we are going to be using thread and I learned that when  you tread on this machine you have to see a capital N if you don’t you have threaded it wrong and you have to start again.

The ups and downs of this are

The ups were getting to use a sewing machine by yourself

The downs were not able to use the thread yet

That was my reflection on technology.Do you do technology at your school?

First time doing road patrol

Yesterday day was my first  time doing road patrol with Mary.Road patrol is when you guide the traffic (you probably do it at your school) you have the lollipop stick (it is shaped like a lollipop) and it hooks onto the side poles.I put my one on upside down at first but then my Mum came over and helped me put it on the right way then she went onto the other side of the road because i was on the other side of the road to the school.Then this is so embarrassing my Mum got out the camera and started taking photos of me.

”clear” I said
”clear” Mary said
”signs out” I said
”cross now” Mary said
”signs in” I said

We did that about 4 times and then Mr Elms came out and he stood there for a little bit and then he said to come in so I went over first and them Mary.

We ran back to class and put our jacket back got our bags and then went to our Mums. My Mum was so proud of me then I went home and I looked at the pictures that were taken of me and that was my first time doing road patrol and I liked it but the lollipops were a little bit heavy but I can cope!!!

Reading

I love to read and you want to know why well it is because you learn from it you don’t just read the words and say that’s a good book you also have to get a GOOD FIT BOOK that you can read but is also a challenge so when you find a word in the book you don’t know you look it up in the dictionary and then us that word in you writting and in what you say and then you will learn heaps of different words and you will build your vocabulary.And of course enjoy the book you are reading so that is why reading is a great hobby and I know it is one of my hobbies(as well as being on my blog of course)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Technology

Every Wednesday at school all the year 7 and 8′s go to technology and you get to make things like necklaces and bracelets it is really fun!So today last week at technology we were using this wire stuff and we had to hammer it down and see what we could make so when I hammered my one down I tried to hook on some beads but it did not work so then I tried putting thinner wire and twist it around and that kind of worked so I left it at that because it was time to pack up.So I put away my hammer and safty googles and my apron and got my things and went out to the bus.The bus takes us to and back from technology and it is really loud on the bus with everyone talking it is annoying!!!!

So that was my post on technology we go to a collage to do it but I am not going to say.Do you do technology in your school please leave a comment and tell me!!!
