Statistics Graph using Google Docs?
Room 20 has been learning about Statistics. Mrs Nua has taught us how to make graphs. For this we had to create a form and ask people a question you wanted to know. I wanted to know what Room 20's Favourite Teacher was.
I sent out a form to all the pupil in room 20 and collected the data. As soon as I had done that, I turned it into a tally chart via Google Spreadsheet. I used all of this data and converted it into a bar graph. I chose to do a bar graph because I thought it was the best way to express my information.
If you see the picture above then you will see the graph I made using Google Docs.

Ultra Fast Broadband
Ultra Fast broadband from KPE TV on Vimeo.
Do you know what Ultra Fast Broadband is? Well this is a broadband that some people are trying to get all around New Zealand. This is because they want us to get on the internet quickly and we could use the internet more often so that it helps our education. One of the best things is that this is not only about faster internet. If you watch this movie you will found out all about UFB (Ultra-Fast Broadband).Tech @ Tamaki
"Yaay, we're going to Food Technology" Seini-Mino exclaimed. It was Monday and it was the day where all the year 7 and 8's went to tech! It was obviously my first time there, so it was very thrilling for me.
Every Monday we went to Tech at 8:50. We all were put in a group , I was in 7B. Why do you think we went there? I think we went to Tech because the teachers wanted us to experience subjects that weren't in our school, such as:
1. Woodwork
2. Graphics
3. Science
4. Cooking
and
5. Electronics
As we headed towards Tamaki collage, Seini-Mino and I chattered excitedly. 7B was the group that was going to cooking. We stepped into a new environment and could feel the air of excitement.
Mrs Heka, which was our cooking teacher took us into the cooking room and said a little introduction to introduce her to us. As we got into position (which was in a kitchen with 3 people in your group) we had to stand and wait quietly. There was dead silence like we were at a funeral for a minute or so because Mrs Heka was doing something.
“Today we will be making sticky buns aka Chelsey buns” Mrs Heka announced. “Yaaaay” a crowed of Pt England Kids screamed. I was one of them. After my group, which was Seini-Mino, Tupak and me had all of the ingredients we started to do the real fun. This was cooking.
As soon as we finished making the buns, putting them into the oven and doing all the overall jobs, we started to pack our sticky buns into some bags. This was because so then we could take it back to school and finish it.
It was morning-tea time already and I kept it in my bag for a little while. I took it out and started to munch on it, I couldn’t resist eating not 1 but actually 2. Scrumptious and exquisite. I loved it when we went to take a bite and you would hear that crunch, it meant that we cooked it just right.
Whenever we go to tech, we make a lot of heavenly food and it tastes awesome. I think that going to these classes make us learn more and it also helps us know more about technology and other things that associate with cooking and food.

Breaking News: The Devastating Earthquake
As you might know, another earthquake striked Christchurch, which was a dreadful disaster. The earthquake was HUGE, it was 6.3 magnitudes. Many of the buildings, were obliterated, during the devastating earthquake, which put a lot of peoples lives to danger.
There was horrible news from all around the environment. Some people were crying on news and some were trying to get hold of their friends and family. Buses are pulverised and building have been destroyed.
“It’s like 2012 has begun” Tuipolotu whispered quietly in Seini-Mino’s ear. I heard him saying it... I did so not believe 2012 so I said ”Noooo!!” soundlessly.
“...I hope that everybody in Christchurch is safe in sound, and will be able to meet their beloved ones very soon, Amen. I murmured in a low tone.

My Amazing Holiday!
During the holidays I did one thing that was very common. This was shopping. My family and I, didn't just go anywhere like Botany Down or some other place that was close. We went far from home. Nearly everyday we woke up early and got ready to go somewhere.
For the first few days we went places like Onehunga and Sylvia Park. I had already brought a lot of things and had spent more than a $100 and I was getting tired of it. Now, that this was a problem for me, I thought of doing something about it!! To stop this from happening I told my dad if all our relatives and us could go for a picnic.
"We'll see" was the answer to my question. A few minutes later from then, my dad got a phone call from one of his friends and he was inviting us to a picnic. That was kind of like a miracle. "YAAAAAY" I screamed!
The day had come and, we had decided that everybody wanted to go to Long Bay. On the way I was getting so excited to get there. I was so in the mood to feel the smooth silky sand. Time had come to unload everything from the boot.
Quick as I could I got changed into my togs and went out to the beach!! The sand was scorching hot like I was stepping onto sizzling ashes. I had a cold swim for 30 minutes then went to eat something since I was so hungry. Music was one of the thing I could have peace from, so I listened to some calming, peaceful music on my sisters Ipod.
An hour or 2 from then, I got really tired and bored so, I asked if we could go home. “To be honest, I hadn’t expected a picnic to be that boring” I told my sister’s. I was so disappointed.
Sitting at home feeling all sad and lonely I thought of downloading movies from uTrorrent (Movie downloader). I spent all my time on movies instead of money! How many movies do you think I’ve watched and what did you do during the holidays???

School is Nearly Starting!!!
Today is the 1st of Febuary and school is nearly starting. I just can't wait. Do you know why I'm so excited? I'm so excited because this year we're going to be dealing with netbooks and, because I'm a year 7 this year!!
In about 7 days time, I will be getting a netbook. With these type of devices I won't be needing a whole bunch of stationary. Also, with these, we will be doing all our writing, reading work and a whole lot more in there.
One of the other things I am so eager about is meeting up with my friends. It's been a very long time since we've seen each other. I am looking forward to seeing if we will be in the same classes again.
I hope I will have a very nice year this year with all my friends and all the new things.
Thanks to this link for letting me use their photo.
