Conservation Week Poem

Te Moana
Down by the sea shore
The sapphire water sparkles as I walk towards it 
My legs lagging behind as I run through the sand 
The waves roar like a lion 
I get a bitter feeling as get near the water
Above my head I hear screeching seagulls 
The dolphins glide through the water 
Suddenly I get whiff of sea salt

Simple Machines

Simple Machines


This week we have been learning about Simple Machines. The six simple machines are screw, wedge, inclined plane, wheel and axle, lever and pulley. I knew what they were but I didn't know how they worked. I found the simple machines really easy to learn. I found it really hard to talk about them and fill in the word search.
