Trump's Wall

I am against Trump's wall. I believe that building a wall could start protests and possibly war. It is also incredibly racist and uninclusive.

About 300 million people in Africa alone don't have access to clean water. This creates illnesses and deaths. In fact, more people are killed by lack of clean water than all wars combined!
The Water Project is a charitable organisation that helps communities find clean water.

This week, Greymain had a Shake Out (earthquake/tsunami drill.) We ducked, covered and held through the "shaking." After the "shaking" stopped, we evacuated to higher ground. The Shake Out was being held all around NZ.

Keeping Ourselves Safe

This week my class has started Keeping Ourselves Safe (KOS). Yesterday, we were given a situation involving being peer pressured into under aged drinking and smoking. We got into groups of around 3 and thought up possible actions and consequences. We then decided the best course of action and shared that with the class.

Rugby world cup

On Monday, Greymain divided into teams of 10-15 and were each dubbed a country. The teams rotated around activities and played against other teams. The  top three teams that scored the most points overall were recognised and given chocolate as a prize.

Term 3 Reflection

This was my first term at Greymain. I made some friends and I think I've settled in well. I enjoyed West-a & Canta maths. I also liked lunchtime. Even though I didn't exactly love Wearable Arts, I felt quite proud as our model walked through the limelight. Next term, I want to join a sports club, I guess.

Wearable Arts

Today is the last day of wearable arts and my group (me, Geordie, Simon and Levi B) have finished!!!
We finished the final reflection for the book-work and fixed a prop. Simon (our model) tried the costume on and it looked pretty good. We send the doc to be printed and we have finished our speech.
Wearable arts wasn't too bad and we got everything-ish done.

Math; Prototec

Most of the time, for basic facts I use prototec. Prototec is an online free site where you can practice basic facts.
Here is my evidence for prototec this week.
