Hello humans

Today my teacher told me to do a reflection of this week so i guess i am going to arent i!

This Weeeeeek we have been focused on writing a great paragraph here is my writing:

H.T.B.A.S

(how to be a superhero)

Hi I’m MIND MAN and I going to teach you how to be a superhero!

As you know there are three main aspects of how to be a superhero, Your backstory, costume, and name.

A Backstory explains how you got your powers, what your powers are, and where you're from.

Did you see someone you loved brutally killed? or Did you grow up with the ability to fly on the planet Zanier? Whatever happened your backstory is one of your most important superhero traits.

I’m

MIND MAN

What planet are you from? There are approximately 3 bazillion life giving planets (1 with a trillion zeroes on the end) in the universe. Whatever one you come from is either the truth or lie. You obviously can't come from a star like X-32 (the sun) unless your a minizard (which surprisingly are not that “mini”) or a meteor which is pretty obvious or a Frozen wasteland because you’ll…..well….freeze.

What powers do you have? My Powers -as you know- are telekinesis (move stuff with my mind), teleportation, and the elements (fire, water, earth, air). you could have electricity, or super knitting, super strength (what my father had), super speed (what my mother had), dark magic (what THE LEADER had) and many more. You also might not have a physical power you could have a mental power like super brains, super memory, or invisibility which are also very cool, or not have any powers at all just be really really really good at fighting like a person you people call Batman? Or Ironman? Or Black WIdow? Or my good friend Captain America!

What was your role? My role on my planet was prince, but were you a, slave, child, terrorist trying to do some good. Or where you just a normal person until something supernatural made you WANT TO RIP OFF THE HEADS OF THE PEOPLE THAT KILLED YOUR FAMILY!!!1! *sobbing angrily* sorry for that spaz… let's move on.

Your costume explains what your powers are. If you were called THE BONE CRUSHER and where big and bulky and very very very VERY strong. You wouldn't go into battle wearing a bright, hot pink, tutu. Would you?

Your superhero costume has to have colours relating to your powers. For instance, if you where BUG MAN you would wear green and your hat would presumably have antennae and ..maybe… you’d have dragonfly wings. Or if you were called ELECTRONIC MAN, you would wear yellow or green or blue the stereotypical colours of things things. Or DARK MASTER you would wear BLACK and have a BLACK cape and have BLACK gloves and you would wear all BLACK. Or Toastman? Would wear light brown or black if he's burnt….or like pink for the jam or something like that.

Your Superhero name implies what your powers are and who you are. If you die in battle, would you like to be remembered as The Ugly Pig?

Your Superhero name, like your costume, implies what your powers are. It is going to be one of the most important tidbits about your persona. Imagine your name in lights. Does "Gregarious Greg" really have the ring to it you want (you can do better than that!)? Is "Looks Good in Yellow Girl" doing yourself justice? Or is The Ugly Pig really good for your popularity. Your name is what you’ll be remembered for so whatever you want to be known for is you choice

I hope this talk has been very informative about

HOW TO BE A SUPERHERO

Armenian Rug Problem

All these Armenian Rug Puzzles have three things in common. the hidden rugs are rectangular.

• they must be placed orthogonally (not diagonally.)
• a corner of a rug cannot lie on the edge of another rug.
• the clues are pegs. When the puzzles are complete, these pegs will lie on the perimeter of exactly one rug.

Maths Reflection

Good Moro my Children 

Sorry I have no idea what i'm saying.

anyway back to my reflection...

for maths today our class has been doing a thing called...

  which is where a couple of questions come together and make like a booklet or page we were meant to do one question but me and my mate JACK and SAMARA and PARIS did nearly all of them sooo... yeah...

The first one was a clock. yeah a clock thang.

we had to draw five lines on a clock to make each segment add up to the same numberrrr. The number they all added up to was, is, thirteen. let me show you a diagram of it. 

you see how in between the lines both the numbers add up to 13. We had to figure out what number was going to go in-between these lines. it was a trial and error thing at first i didnt get it but in the end i did. it was a mildly hard thing to do but we got it in the end.

Thank you for reading my post

if you like it leave a comment i will allow any comment if its not inappropriate.

Reflection of Maths

For maths this week I looked at Rounding decimals.

Adding and subtracting decimals is quite easy once you learn how to do it. 

For Example:

3.d.p

33.456375 rounded to the third decimal place. What you have to do is...

*scientist voice* when you round it to the third decimal place you check the number before it to see if it is over or under five and in this case the number before it is 3 so it is under five so the rounded number is

33.456 BUT if it was over five the last number would be one number up like this 33.457.

Thx for looking at my post!!

Floating or Sinking Update

💧 Floating or Sinking Experiment 💧

Today we are doing basically Science all day. I did my experiment with this chap here. 1We are doing a Floating or Sinking Experiment where we make a raft out of plasticine and ship it off with fencing staples in it. We made three designs. The first design I, Sadly, Didn't get a photo of but it looked a little bit like this.

Our Second Design we put in the water and it just floated...just. This is what it looked like:

Our 3rd Design went really well and it floated we haven't put the Staples in yet so I cant tell you I might do an update on how many we staples we got on the boat without it sinking so yeah. This is our third Design:

❄️ Why does Ice Float? ❄️

Today In Science We were talking about Floating and Sinking I decided to do a presentation on 

Why Ice Floats? 

So here it is...

Also Please leave a comment if you liked it That would be much appreciated :)

👑 NORSE GODS 👑

NORSE GODS

Today is the day that I will be talking to you about Norse Gods. Norse gods are the gods of Vikings. They Include the gods like THOR which has become a hit movie in 2014 an- Sorry got carried away lets get going with the Norse Gods.

Odin

Odin was the chief god in the Norse mythology, and the father of Thor, Balder, Hoder, Tyr, Bragi, Heimdall, Ull, Vidar, Hermod and Vali. His wives were Fjorgyn, Frigga and Rind. He had a bad habit to roam around Midgard in human disguise seducing and impregnating women. This is why many mortals were able to trace their ancestry back to him.

Thor

Thor was the son of Odin and Fjorgyn. He was the god of thunder, the sky, fertility and the law. Armed with his strength-giving items, a belt and the hammer Mjölnir, he had a simple way of righting wrongs: he more or less killed everything that moved. The other gods -mostly Loki- occasionally took advantage of Thor's simplicity.

Loki

Loki can be called the 'wizard of lies' and is in many ways the most interesting god in Asgard. Loki was related to Odin, but their relationship was rather strange. He came to Asgard either as of right or because Odin and he entered into a blood-brotherhood.

Frey

Frey was a fertility god of the the Vanir race. He was the son of Njord and came to Asgard as a hostage along with his father and sister Freya.

Freya

Freya was the goddess of sex and later also war and death. She married the god Od, who deserted her. After being abandoned she divided her time between mourning his absence and being promiscuous.

Idun

The goddess of spring and immortal youth was called Idun. She was the daughter of the dwarf Ivald and married to the god Bragi.

Sif 

Sif was the goddess who married Thor and bore his stepson (by Odin), Ull. The Vikings (and their gods) admired golden hair, and she was exceptionally proud of hers, so Loki cut it all off while she was asleep.

Hel

Hel was a goddess (or a monster), a daughter of Loki and Angrboda, who ruled over Niflheim, which was the land of the dead. There were different opinions of whether she was alive or dead. Ull, in his role as god of winter, was supposed to spend a few months each year as Hel's lover. Hel and her ghostly army were going to support the other gods at Ragnarok, after which her domain would go out in flames.

P.S I am stopping doing the current mood thing and not doing anything at all :). 

🐺 Fenris Wolf 🐺

This post is all about Norse mythology and Fenris/Fenrir wolf. Some people might believe in these gods and think that Odin and Thor and Loki are real. Some people dont believe in any of these things and thats O.k people are allowed to have there own beliefs BUT I'm going off topic, lets start with Fenris:

Fenris/Fenrir is a Wolf the size of a Medium size horse. He is the most infamous wolf of Norse Mythology. He is the son of Loki and the giantess Angrboða (don't know how to pronounce this) which makes him the brother of the Serpent Jormungand better know as the world serpent and the underworld goddess Hel
(also his uncle is THOR).

The Aesir Gods raised Fenris themselves in order to keep him from wreaking havoc in all of the nine worlds. He grew at an astonishingly fast pace however and eventually the troubled gods decided to chain him up.Their first two attempts were unsuccessful; while the cunning gods convinced Fenrir that it was only a game, a test of his strength, he broke through the fetters easily. For their third attempt, the gods had the dwarves forge the strongest chain ever built, which nevertheless gave the appearance of being very light and even soft to the touch. When the gods presented Fenrir with this third fetter, he became suspicious, and he refused to be bound with it unless one of the gods would stick his or her hand in his mouth as a pledge of good faith. Only Tyr was brave enough to do this, knowing that it would mean the loss of his hand. And, sure enough, when Fenrir found himself unable to break free of his bonds, he ripped Tyr’s hand from its arm. The chain was then tied to a boulder and a sword was placed in Fenrir’s jaws to hold them open. Thats the story of Fenris also Mythology says that on Ragnarok, Fenris breaks free and destroys all of the Nine Worlds but no big deal just a massive wolf destroying us all...hehe...

😸 Pokemon 😸

Emojis??

Nearly everyone knows what an emoji is...right? These Things - 😍

These are known worldwide because of Apple. Emojis were originally made in 1999 but they started to get more popular when apple released iOS 6 in 2014. iPhone uses quickly learned that they could activate the emoji keyboard in iOS 6 to add fun little smiley's and icons in their text messages. The emoji movement has since expanded to all sorts of social network sites too, including Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and others. Talking about websites there is a website called emojitracker which tracks the amount of emojis used on twitter at this time and the recent tweets tweeting them. I think the emoji craze has gone a little too far because people (not me) have added the word EMOJI to the Oxford dictionary. I know crazy right...hehehe...I wasn't in on this...

ANYWAY that is the end of my post I am starting to think I should do something so when people see my blog posts they laugh, so I'm going to start doing a current mood thing so yeah.

5 Lies about me!

Here are 5 lies about me!

Short Fingernails
I have Short Fingernails because when I went to England to the tower of London and I went snooping around to look for the crown jewels, when I found them I opened the glass and the guard saw me and told me “When you stop biting your fingernails I will tell the police and you will get arrested” and i didn't want to get arrested so I didn't stop biting my nails.

Brown Eyes
I have Brown Eyes because once when I was walking around the cadbury factory in Dunedin when someone popped out from behind the curtain and knocked me on the head with a hammer. When I woke the person had tied me to a chair with rope and had covered my eyes with chocolate to try and blind me but I ripped the rope off and took the chocolate off and looked in the mirror, my eyes had turned brown.

Big Feet
I have big feet because I am Descended from a long line of English Hobbits. Hobbits were around in the 1200s and Harold the Great (I'm sure youve heard of him, he was one of the greatest hobbits ever) Is my Great x 1000 grandad.

Obsessive about mythology

I am OBSESSED with Mythology because 24 years ago my mother met a guy and she found out he was the Norse god Loki he stayed with her for about 20 years but since god's never stay around long he had a child with her and fled after that. My mum didn't tell me about this until I was 8 because thats the year that I matured the most and could handle her telling me my father was a god. I read books about this because it is basically researching my father's family.

Good Swimmer

I'm a god swimmer because

I once went swimming and the Greek God, Poseidon, Norse God, Njord, Egyptian gods, Nephthys and Sobek and the Roman god, Neptune all gave me the blessing of great swimming and I that made me part fish.
