Strickland reunion.

21st of December we had a Strickland family reunion. I think it was all about seeing the whole family and knowing each other. It was held in a Marae in Manurewa. The marae in Manurewa where we had our Family Reunion was a strict place to stay at, maybe all the maraes in New Zealand is strict so we had to respect the marae. We couldn't eat in the marae, we couldn't run or play rough and MORE, cause there was consequences to what you do wrong. We had to respect the marae. That was hard cause there was a lot of kids to play and giggle with.

In our family there are 6 glans (IDK what that means) there was, George family, Rio Family, and more I forgot. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner was made by every family, what I mean is like every single clan had a turn to cook the food for example on Monday was the George family they had to cook breakfast, lunch, dinner, on Tuesday it was the Rio family they cook the whole meal for the day, so every glan had turns of cooking the food. Every meal was always Delicious.

At 8:30 pm we had activities, kids from 10 downwards would have hiding go seek, musical chairs and other fun activities. 11 upwards was in the hall doing drama, dancing, singing and more which was fun, I mostly enjoyed every single one cause it was soo funny and cool to be involved in. And at 10 pm we had to go sleep, but me and my cousins that was my age would just muck around giggle and we would challenge each other who would stay up the longest, its like alnighters. Where you stay up all night.

25th of December it ended... which was so sad cause I had loads of fun, and I miss it so bad. But out of all the strict marae it was still fun staying there, and breakfast, lunch, dinner was always delicious cause they were mostly cook island food.The activities were sooo fun, we giggled and mostly enjoyed our self. I have no favourite I loved everything we did.By the way I was part of the George family, and we're having another family reunion in 2023 in 5 years time. THANK YOU FOR READING ALONG!!





Expo Day ( Force and Motion )

Today we had an expo day about Force and Motion. We had to come up with a experiment about Force  and Motion to present. My group and I came up of making a ROCKET made out of a plastic bottle, vinegar,  baking soda, and a cork to hold the vinegar and the baking soda in. We choice a rocket so we can look at how it's  going up and falling back down.

So the first thing we did we poured one small cup full of vinegar into a 1.5 litre bottle , and 3 tease spoon of baking soda in with the vinegar and i put the cork in to the part where you put the lid in and i faced it upside down and in 30 sec it went flying up into the sky.All the student that were watching was so amazed, but we ran out of ingredient so fast, that we couldn't make more.

Prespectivve and Opinions

BEDMAS

What is BEDMAS? BEDMAS is the acronym for order of operations in maths.
In Bedmas theirs a meaning for every letter thats in the word BEDMAS. 

BEDMAS stand for ???
B- BRACKETS ( ) 
E- EXPONENT 
D- DIVISION  
M- MULTIPLICATION 
A- ADDITION 
S- SUBTRACTION 

For example- 12 + 3 x 4 + ( 9 x 2 ) =
B-E-D-M-A-S
12 + 3 x 4 + 18
12 + 12 +18
24 + 18 = 42

So as you can see the answer is 42 , I solved it in order of BEDMAS
