Jean Batten day

 Jean Batten day

Yesterday we had a Jean Batten day, were you need to bring you reselince if you want to finish it. We Got a clue it was so hard it took us half an hour but we finally found it and got our next clue. It was saying words and the letter starting the word they write down to make a big word, but we were on the other side of the hall so we had to shout. 

Next we made paper planes that Jean flew I got the Gull. We did tests to see which plane was better Gull or Moth. The three tests were distance and two accurate. One was throwing our planes through a hula hoop with balloons around it and you can't hit the balloons and the last one was hitting the mayday target and distance. The Moth won the distance and I don't know who won going through the hoop and the Gull won the mayday target.


Then we made toothbrush plane that didn't fly but, it did move which was pretty cool. Our hardest step to make it was striping two wires, we also have battres to make it move. Striping the wires was hard because if you cut to much it will cut the wires, and that's what koka Ngaire did so we could not make one. My friend Jaxon came third because we did a race with the peoples who worked. It was the BEST day ever!!!

Chess tournament

 Chess tournament

Last week we did a chess tournament, we play 7 games each. When the guy put up the draws everyone went crazy because they wanted to see who they were facing.  When I went to where we play I was so nervous, after five minutes I check mated the girl I was facing. After my game me and hunter played a game where you have a horse and pawns are on the rest of the squares. The horses can only move in a L shape.


 On my first try I had twelve pawns left, then Hunter went and got I think he got eighteen left , then I had another turn, but this time I was determined to win and if I did I would get a badge. After I played I was so angry because I had 7 left.


I won my next game, well I was waiting I tried to guess how much horses were in a really big horse, I guessed 123 because it was so heavy. I won the game because I checkmated her with my horse so I got a badge. By the end I got in the top team and won 5 out of 7 games.
