Jim's table-By Meleana

Jim’s table

Jim has some squared paper handy. He put the numbers 1 to 10 along the top and the even numbers down the side. He then started adding the numbers together. As he filled in the numbers he began to see patterns.

Find some patterns for yourself. Use them to complete Jim’s table.

Why we must keep ourselves clean! - ( By Mele'ana )

If you don’t keep yourself clean you could catch a disease or as I would say a virus.

You could catch Meningococcal B by sharing a straw, Sharing a cup, Spreading your germs and sharing everything and spreading anything. Meningococcal B is a very big disease and could kill you. It will affect you and probably affect your family, and anyone you hang out with. You probably won’t even know that you have Meningococcal B, it doesn’t really show that much for your first day.

Measles is another kind of disease/virus. Measles has been going around and spreading, it’s also been on the news! People that have Measles could spread it to others when they breath, cough or sneeze. You can catch measles by being in the same room as someone who has it or being in a room up to 2 hours after they’ve left. Measles can affect others around you so quickly. If you have measles you would have rashes around you and you would mostly scratch all the time. You could catch measles even before the affected person gets a measles rash.

Chicken Pox is also a Disease/Virus. It shows mostly everywhere, it is also contagious, the best way to not give it to anyone else is to stay away from others. When you have chicken Pox you would have little/big dots everywhere around your body and you would be scratching mostly all the time. People would think you look ugly and stupid, but it’s just that your sick and you don’t feel good. The best way to stay away from others and not to spread the virus is to stay home, relax and have walm soup or maybe some tea.

Eating Junk food- By Mele'ana

Learning Intention- W.A.L.T- write a Persuasive writing.
Success Criteria-I know I am when I can persuade my reader about my story.



I disagree that eating junk food is good for us, because you could get rotten teeth and even go to the dentist. Junk food has lots of sugar and salt, and they affect your teeth and it will start to hurt. It has no vitamins, so it will just make your body rotten. You even might get diabetes from eating lots of Junk food. Fruit and vegetables are way better than Junk food.

Shellfish - Cockles- ( By Mele'ana )

Learning Intention-W.A.L.T-write an argument.
Success Criteria-I know I am successful when I can give my idea to the argument.

What are Cockles?
A Cockle is an edible, marine mollusc. 
Many small bivalves are loosely called Cockles, true cockles are species in the family of Cardiidae.


Why are cockles disappearing?
Cockles are disappearing because people are greedy and taking big sackfuls of Cockles. The take limit has been in place for a few years and people are braking it.

What can we do about it?
We could put up signs that say " 20 Cockles per person" and watch out if people ignore and take more. If they ignore, then we could sew them for $2,000. Or we could put it on the news telling New Zealand the limit or just put it on google for people to read.
