Space suits


The problem we are trying to solve is what we can wear to make the moon Titan habitable. We are solving this by Making space suits that have.....

Clear plastic space bubbles going over the front of our faces and wigs to protect our heads and eyelashes to protect our eyes from all the gasses around us. It keeps you very warm for this freezing planet with its heaters built into its pockets and sides. The head part of the helmet has a breathing device that allows you to breathe normally with no troubles.
This planet has no sun so we will build a globe around each of the cities that has 10000000000000000000000 lights around it that have automatic switches that turn the lights of and on, with a dim.

We are doing an add for the end project. This is the script we are using.

Kiwa- Hello and welcome to our space rocket!

Lily-We are going to live on the planet Titan, which has freezing temperatures 

*Meg and Isla walk on wearing the space suits and do a catwalk*

Meg - Have you always wanted to be an astronaut? Well, we have always wanted to provide space suits to fit the needs of living on the moon Titan.k


Isla  - here are the space suits, on the back you will see that there are breathing tubes, they are very thin, so they weigh nearly nothing, and they have filters that turn the air into air that is safe and breathable. 


Skye - The wigs are bob cuts and they have heating for the head and face, there are also crystal clear, bulletproof space bubbles that keep the air filtering in and out. Thick eyelashes keep dust and space particles from hurting your eyes, they also increase your eyesight so that your vision is not impaired when most needed. 

Kiwa - The pockets all over the suit have internal heating. They also have safety equipment for whatever situation you come across. The boots have remote controlled weights so that you don’t float into the sky. They also have temperature controlled leg warmers that are set to your desired temperature. 

Poppy - from the underarms to the waist is a comfortable metal corset, protecting you from sudden impacts and bullets that could crush your heart and organs.

Meg - The whole suit is bullet proof, with shoulder pads that protect your shoulders and also have equipment stored in them.

Maori language week

For Maori Language week, groups of people all across NZ signed up to be a part of NZ Maori week, using one minute of their time to say Kia Kaha, korero Maori. I think we were trying to break world record.

My Pet Alien - Edited

This is the edited version of My Pet Alien. I put some more similes in the story and I corrected the grammar and made it more interesting.


 She is snuggled up under my blankets. Her snoring is quiet and reassuring. Her soft hand reaches and grabs onto mine. Spock can’t be found. She is so special, if the government found out about her I would be in so much trouble. I grab a bottle of warm milk from my bedside table and put it into her puckered lips. Her Pale brown skin shimmers under my dim bedroom light. 

I had never believed in life outside earth, but as soon as my eyes met with hers, my whole mind changed. Maybe it could be possible. I start running through possible planets they could live on. Spock could have come from an undiscovered planet. My mind whirls at all the possibilities.

Spock snuggles up against me. Full from her feed, her tummy rumbles.


When I wake up, the warm patch where Spock should be is empty. No. Mum cannot find out about her. I sit up to see my closet with all of its contents strewn across the floor. I start to swear and I run into the kitchen, to see Spock with a banana peel over his head and banana mushed into her face. I laugh and scoop her up. I grab a tissue, wipe her face and then put her into my school bag. 

“ Spock you are so messy” I grab my bike and start pedalling to the lake. Spock climbs out of my bag and hops down on to the UFO ruins. She looks heart broken. Who knew that aliens had emotions. I really want Spock to go home, but deep in my heart I know that I really want Spock to stay with, she has filled a hole in my heart, like a piece of cake filling your hunger. When I pick Spock back up, she has turned colder than an ice cube. 

“ Spock what's wrong” She groans and rolls over in my arms, her usually vibrant yellow coat has turned a sickly green. I take in a breath and hop onto my bike.


2 WEEKS LATER

Spock is home. I know it was for the best. NASA blasted her off into space with a beacon attached to a collar. I made a scientific discovery, a discovery close to me. I see her mingle with the other aliens. She is happier now. 


The vet told me she was intacking to much oxygen, her planet has none. Her body was inflating from the oxygen. I wasn’t helping her, I was endangering her.

Te Reo Māori

 Tuesday's Te Reo Māori

Writing - And then they arrived

This is my draft writing for the story topic - and then they arrived



And then they arrived, they came in groups of 12 hoarding guns and weapons of war. Their skin pierced my eyes, shocking yellow. The colour of a fluro jacket. Eugh. I raise my chair to cover my vulnerable parts. I told them not to invade. That earth was too complicated and futuristic for them. But still.

My hands are sweating and the chair is sliding down further. My face is showing, a perfect target for one of their extra terrestrial weapons.

“ please Khaleesi. Dont hurt anyone” She snarls at me and walks outside.

I hear a massive bang and the hosue next door tumbles down.


                                  3 Weeks Later


The world is in destruction mode, the supermarkets have sold out and people are locked up inside their homes. All because of me. I let the aliens come here. It was my fault.

ET snuggles up against me. Full from her food.

“ ET you are so messy” I hop onto my bike and bike to school.

Maths

 This is what we did in maths today. Sorry about all of the background noise.

Space Inquiry

 For space inquiry I am working with Poppy, Skye, Meg, Lily and Kiwa. We are separating our group so that Poppy, Skye and I are working on what planet we can go to and what the food will be like. The others are doing a space suits.

One question that interests me is how would you turn bad air into good air.

This is a website that interests me Wikipedia

I want to create a display board to show my learning

What is this - te reo maori

 This week for Te Reo Maori we have a goal to learn five sentences in Te Reo.

Finish the story

 


I take the shimmering blue crystal, it flashes in front of my eyes, I step back, in a moment of shock. I feel my upper body twisting to the back and I see a contorted body shape, with peculiarly big eyes and a wide grin - creepy - I open my mouth to speak, but all that comes out is a strangled cry. I grab my throat to feel nothing but air. My neck has gone, I look into the reflection on my watch to see that my head is the only thing there. I gasp and fall back, the world blacking out around me.
