 We did Chapter Chat and I did the parashot. I made the parashot with 7 long ballons and then colored some paper towels and then put water on them so it would look like tie-dye and it did. Then I stuck them on paper and then stuck the balloons on the paper underneath and then tied a string on it and made the string even and tied a basket on it when I was going to make it be a seat but I left it like a basket and then I tied more string on it so it was like a kite so I could hold it and get it to fly and so it wouldn't fly away because it was a windy day. When I was running with it it was flying for some time but then three ballons poped and some twisted and so it didn't fly as well and then it wasn't working anymore so I put it in the bin. The part that was my favorite was making the parashot because I got to stick the balloons on and make tie-dye paper. The part that was the hardest was flying it because at first, the string came off so I had to run and get it before it fl

 Today we got Mrs. Taaffe to come into Whetu. She confessed that she did the crime. She was having computer trouble then she saw the dongle in Whetu so she thought she could just go into Whetu and take it because she didn't think we would find out so she went to the office and turned the Whetu alarm off and went into Whetu and took the dongle and then she saw the mini chocolates and took some and dropped some on her way and when she was trying to push the door open because she heard someone coming so she cut her hand on the door frame when she was trying to open the door and then she got out and ran then hid behind the bush. Then she went to the hairdressers. She also wears scrunchies. Her shoe size matches the footprints from the scene. She was there on the day it happened.

 I did a sheet where you think like a detective it's really easy. I worked with Marley and when we figured out the codes we made up our own. The first code is a sentence and it says Look carefully to uncover the clues.   The second sentence says This is no red herring I didn't really get the last code.                                               My favorite part was working with Marley and breaking the codes it was really fun and I think I did well.     At first, I didn't know what to do but then Marley told me how to do it and then it seemed really easy.

On Athletics day the hardest race for me was 800 meters because I ran around the field 2 times. My favorite race was doing relays and our group came 2nd place. I liked shotput too because I think I did pretty good at it but I think I could have done better. I think I did good at the long jump and had done my best at jumping. I didn't like 200 meters because I could have done better but I still did good I was just tired from my other races.
