Noah Problem Solving: Subtracting by Making Tens

N.F. The Rapper.

NF is a 24 year old American Christian Rapper/Singer that goes to different countries to perform. We came to a giant music stadium where N.F. also known as (Nate Feuerstein) was rapping, Millions of other people came and heard him, he hooked the audience with his awesomeness and Rapping.

Heaps of people loved him so much everyone asked for another 3 songs because his songs were fantastic. when we left NF went into a marquee and was giving people his signature by a vivid. Thankfully I got a handshake with him and his signature on my arm. I was so annoyed when it came off.

By the way we were at Festival one a festival that people come to and set up a camp site. They can do what they want to do. back to the story, after N.F.s awesome performance we went to the Village that is where all the food markets are. It was the 2nd to last night there so we went and bought stuff.

We started walking back to our so cool campsite that the day before we got a trophy. A very shiney and flash one, it said BEST-CAMPING-COMMUNITY. I was staring at it just before I got into my tent and went to sleep. would you like to come to Festival one next year in 2017?,  because tickets are on sale this year. Only if your interested   

Here are some of his songs that he did,  (Click on the links)

The Luge at Rotorua

As I woke up from my warm and comfortable bed in Rotorua, I saw my brothers Jordan and Levi asleep in there bed. I got out of my bed and looked out of the window it was pure sunny and a brilliant day to go swimming, but sadly we didn’t go swimming, we went to a fun and exciting place named Rainbow Springs.

We got in the car and drove out of town, the smell was horrible. At last we were there. We parked the car and walked into the building. I went to the counter with my dad and we bought tickets for the family to go on the gondola, it was really exciting. I love gondolas they are so cool, as I was saying we got into the gondola and waited for it to reach the top. we got up on the platform and walked out of the gondola. We put on helmets for safety then we got in a line and waited, while we are waiting let me tell you about the Luge and what you do.

First of all do you know what the luge is and what you do? well let me tell the other people who don’t know. So the luge is a thin and long track and people drive little carts that roll down the track, all of them are windy and fast, there are three types of tracks the first and easiest one is called the scenic track which little kids go on or people that are not confident at driving that fast. then the second and harder one is called the intermediate track which is a lot faster and more sharp turns.

The last one which is the most difficult one that is called the Advanced track, it is the hardest one out of them all. professionals like to drift and skid, by the way I went on all of them and they were easy peasy, the line got shorter and shorter until it was our turn. We hopped in a cart and pushed forwards the carts don’t have motors so you sort of have to nudge your way off I was twisting and turning and drifting. I Saw this sharp turn up ahead. So I tried to drift as I was drifting the wheels screeched on the concrete. I was quite scared because I didn’t want to fall off the cart and land on the concrete.

When you finish the track, you go on machine chairs which take you up to the start,

at the end my dad said to my mum would you like to come on the zipline with me?(A zipline is a long line that you zip on) mum got so scared and told dad the next time we come here I will go. which is probably in two years, I Enjoyed it heaps and I thought it was lots of fun. From Noah

Biscuiting at Kateriteri

The moment I felt the fresh sea salt water on my skin, I was swimming in the Kaiteriteri beach. My uncle bought a fishing tin boat a very flash fishing tin boat. Inside the boat  it had  a little cabin to store stuff, cup holders a screen to tell where he was heading to, a folding in set and a little fish tank to put all the fish they catch inside there. One time I went fishing with him and his son and I caught four baby maco sharks. (but we didn’t keep them)

Anyways about Biscuiting. A biscuit is an inflatable disc that floats behind the boat, We all went down to the beach and most of us had a turn, it was first two big boys and one girl by the names of Mana Siaki and Izzy they had great fun. As I was talking to a friend Reina I was chatting to her until my uncle came and said your turn.

It was Me Reina and my little brother Toby, we started off quite slow then the speed was building up I do not know why but I never stopped laughing until I fell in. we curved on edges and drifted all around it was so much fun until he turned very fast and I fell straight in it pulled me down, under the water, I floated back up because I had a life jacket I got back on and my uncle started the motor we went up and down and up and down and up and down until finally my uncle took us in for a rest and for the last people.  THE END!!!

Athletics day

It was a long hot day when the sun went up above the horizon and shone on the land, I woke up from my long sleep and got ready for Athletics day. First of all do you know what Athletics is? It is a the sport of competing in track and field events, including running races and other events like jumping and throwing.

I got to school and saw Mr J get the lines for the class’s,I saw my class and Hine Moana I shouted go hie moana. Then I went to Mr Burt (The Principal) with my buddy Ajani and told him that we need to get the cameras for Photographers, I’m a photographer for the school and I take photos for PENN our school news.

My favourite event was sprints, until the race began. I stood ready to run for the finish line but I was nervous, like a lion trying to get across the river to the other side, Set  said Mr burt and he smacked the two pieces of wood together which means  Go!!! I sprinted but sadly fell I got upset a bit but I got over it and it was alright I had a great time and went home. The end.

Ant Boy wows Manaiakalani Film Festival 2015

Our term three inquiry was about Trade and Enterprise. During this term we didn't just learn about business but also about how people's emotions influence their decisions. As a class we learnt about empathy and "putting ourselves in someone else's shoes." We then took this quote and created a fun movie to share this concept. We also shared it with hundreds of people at the Manaiakalani Film Festival. I was one of the lead actors in this outstanding movie!

We hope you enjoy Ant Boy as much as our audiences did.
