Kupe & Captain Cooks Journey

This week for Inquiry we are learning about explorers and adventurers. So a group of us collaboratively created a map that showed the journey of Kupe’s and Captain James Cook’s discovery of New Zealand. This took three of us, Fau, Victoria and I to research about Kupe and the others Chris, Sulia, and Giovanni working on James Cook. We were able to locate where their Journey began and finished, and also making it interactive.

For maths we have been creating a Family Menu to feed a group of 6 or 5 members. In my group I had Chavda, Florence, Alex and Nevaeh. We have created a google document that has each day of the week including the food that we will be having for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. In this task we were allowed to have 1 day of fast food. My group has chosen that we will McDonald's as out fast food, we have decided to have it on the last day of the week.

The real cost of owning a pet

This week we had a task where we looked at how much a pet would cost. In my group was Victoria, Florence, Fui and Nyjah. For this task we picked a Pomeranian and the information that we collected is above. The average weight of a Pomeranian is 1 kg-3 kg which is fairly light. The name of our dog is Bangtan Sonyeondan which was inspired from our favourite k-pop group, BTS. There is some information above of how much it would cost to own a Pomeranian.
