I am a student at Ōtaki College in Ōtaki, NZ. My blog is a place where I will be able to share some of my learning. Please note....some work won't be edited - they are just my first drafts, so there may be some errors. I would love your feedback, comments, thoughts and ideas on my posts.

Paper Planes.
For the past two weeks we have been learning how to measure and we have made paper planes to throw and measure.
We are making paper planes for maths and are measuring how far they go. Next we have to find the average and see if our assertion is right. After all that we have to make a graph.
Assertion: Having no colour so it has not much weight.

I learnt that having pencil on your plane is good to balance your plane. Also having no pencil is good if it is not going against the wind.

The Mystery Of John Finley
The Mystery Of John Finley
“Have you ever seen this man?” asks a cop to a heap of citizens. Every citizen except one said, “No”. The man who said, “Yes” also said he lived in the forest. So the cops went to the forest the next day.
They managed to see a house so they went to check it out. One cop fell in water because of the fog. They went looking for the man who gave them the information. They went back to the place they found him before but he was gone. So they took a boat this time.
When they got to the water they launched the boat and sailed to the house, as soon as they got there they started to investigate. They found a clue which was some science gear. They heard a creak in a room when they went to check it out the cops got nervous. They quickly opened the door and found a pet wolf. The cops had a hunch that he was a vet but they needed more evidence. They were determined to find John Finley.
When they were doing a last investigation they uncovered a key that was on a note the note said “HELP I am under attack by a pack of wolves there after the cub I have locked in my bedroom. If you are looking for me I am over a dock west from here. I can’t …………….” (The page was ripped) The cops sent a search crew out west. They said they had found it but all they found was a locked cabin.
Then they realised the key must unlock the cabin. Next they sent a team to rescue him. But all they found was a note that said “If you are reading this I have moved in to town and would of given you your first clue. So then they ran to get the man that gave them the clue. They never found him though.
THE END.
