My Intrepid Adventure

Yay!! We’re going town. I was so excited to go to town because its so fun looking at the sky tower and all the huge buildings. The reason we went into town was because it was my aunty's birthday. My aunty's birthday took place at Cowboys. Cowboys is a bar with drinks,pizza,burgers and curly fries. As soon as I took a bite of one curly fry it was so yummy I wanted to eat the whole bowl. My uncle and aunty works at Cowboys, so when we buy food and drinks we get it for free. Meanwhile my cousins and I went and sat outside of the bar and started looking at the boats. The boats were mainly white. But they were all very small. Afterwards we went over the bridge and took heaps of photos. Then we had to walk back to the bar because it was getting dark. After we cleaned up all our mess, we had to all go home in the car. I really didn't want to leave because I was having a great time. As I were watching everyone get into there car I saw people’s faces and they looked like they didn't want to leave as well. Bye town I thought as I slouched in the car.

Potato Maths

When you have done this, work out how somethings will need to change if we are making 32 baked spuds...what things will stay the same?
Baked Potato Maths

With a partner locate and list all the maths that is required to successfully make this recipe.


Write your list here:





Now try these...work with a partner.

1. What unit of measurement would you use to weigh 1 potato? _______
32 potatoes? _______

2. The weight of one potato is : 180 ?

3. Therefore the weight of 32 potatoes is approximately: ____________

4. Show how you figured this out...use your x grid if you need to.


5. Why have I said the weight is approximate?


One can of topping (baked beans or creamed corn) is enough for how many potatoes?

How many cans would we need if half of the potatoes have baked beans and half have creamed corn?

What if ¾ have baked beans.

There is a carton of sour cream that has 500 grams.

How much does a dessert spoon hold?

Will there be enough for a dessert spoon of sour cream to top the topping of every one of the 32 potatoes?



Phew!!!

I need a baked potato for some energy to do all this work.

Can you make up a maths question from this activity?

All Blacks vs France

The moment that I will remember is The All Blacks against France. I was extremely excited because it was the last match for the Rugby World Cup and The All Blacks made it!

At home it was my whole family watching the game.The game was on Sunday, October 23rd. As soon as The All Blacks performed their haka we all got up and joined in. The haka was just AMAZING!!! Then Haley Western was singing the National Anthem. The National Anthem came on and we were all singing proudly.It was like the whole house was going to explode.

Kick Off!Yeah!! as my sister shouted. My mum and dad were in the room watching it. As soon as they kicked off my mum shouted ‘GO’!!! So my dad got up and walked to the living room. The game was Awesome but The All Blacks did not play their best game. The game was played at Eden Park,the best stadium of stadiums in history.

I really enjoyed the game. It was extremely AMAZING!!!!! My favourite moment of Rugby World Cup was to see The mighty All Blacks win the Web Ellis Cup!!!!
