Accurate Measurements by Mary

This week in technology we are learning how to construct a joint. Every Monday mornings the year 7 students go to Tamaki College. We go by bus to Tamaki College.

The first process was planning. I found the planning very easy because all we had to do was think of what you are going to make. I drew my five ideas. All the measurements has to be accurate. If you make a mistake your project will be ruined.

The second process was to learn the safety rules. The first and most important rule is don’t fiddle because if you fiddle you’re not going to finish your work or pay attention to the teacher. The next rule was stools in. If your stool is not in Mr. Grundy will take the stool away from you and you would have to stand up for the whole lesson. The final rule is closed shoes. If you don’t have closed shoes you could get hurt when using tools and it won’t be Mr Grundy’s fault it would be your fault because you didn’t follow the rules. Following the rules is really important because if you don’t you're going to get yourself hurt.


I enjoy technology because we get to do lots of fun stuff and my classmates enjoy it, too. I think we should stay at hard materials because it just so much fun and the things we make we get to keep.

Weird and Wacky Food Festival by Kelvin

Walt: Write a summary. Weird and Wacky Food Festival

It is about a wacky and bizarre food festival. A Tomato Festival is a food fight festival and it is held in Spain.The Tomato Festival is the biggest festival in the whole wide world and it was made a long time ago and it is in August on the last Wednesday.They have tons of tomatoes that can fill up the whole street. The Radish Festival was held in Mexico and it was held years ago. It is on 23 December at night.The festival lasts a few hours because radishes or vegetables don't last long. The people use the radishes to make sculptures. I think we should have a weird and wacky tomato festival in New Zealand every year. The roads and the people will be covered in tomatoes.
