On Saturday me, my dad and my sister went to krispy cream to get some doughnuts. When we got there the queue was almost on the road. After about 45 minutes of waiting we got to front of the queue. I ordered a small cookies and cream shake and some cookies and cream doughnuts. My sister ordered the same thing as me. We decided to do a contactless drop off of some doughnuts to my grandparents. It was nice to have a socially distanced chat with them because I miss them.
I am a student at New Windsor School. This is where I share my learning around Learn, Create, Share and the New Windsor Way.

Afghans!
Yesterday me and my Mum made afghan biscuits! First we got all the ingredients out. Next we mixed them together. After that me and my sister made them into balls and planted them on the baking tray. Finally my mum chucked them in the oven and we waited for them to cook. When they were ready me and my sister ate one and they were delicious!
Here is a picture of the biscuits!

Monster Comic!
Yesterday for one of my challenges I had to make a monster and include it in a comic. My first attempt wasn't successful but my second one was! It took me about half an hour to finish my comic which is written in first person (from the monster's point of view).

Egg Challenge!
For my challenge yesterday I had to drop an egg from a height of 3m without cracking it. I wasn’t successful but here are my instructions so you can have a try.
Got two little card cupcake cases.
Put toilet paper in them followed by the egg.
Wrapped it with toilet paper.
Wrapped it with tissue paper.
Sellotaped 4 straws to the bottom of the egg case, two on each side.
Stuck a piece of cardboard to the bottom of the straws. This was a landing platform.
Drop from a height of 3m.
Here are some photos of it!

Making A Book Mark
Last week for one of my Maori language week tasks we had to make a book mark. Here are the steps to make it.
- Get some red, white and black paper.
- Cut them into equal size strips (ideally not too thick)
- Start weaving them if you know how. If you don't, look for a video.
- Cut off any paper hanging over the edges of your bookmark.
- Cover it in sellotape
for some extra strength.

Making A Board Game!
Last week for one of my art tasks we had to make a board game. It could be any board game, but it must be creative.
I made a board game that was a bit of 10 other board games including monopoly and snakes and ladders. It took me about 30 minutes to make before me, my Mum and my sister played it. After about 45 minutes of playing we realized it was much too hard to finish so I made a few edits (added Q cards with special instructions) and then we were able to finish it.
Here is a picture of the board game!

What I will do tonight!
Tonight me and my family are going to watch a movie! We are going to eat our dinner in front of it - pretend K.F.C. My mum said we should watch Mrs Doubtfire but I am not too sure about that (please leave your suggestions in the comments). We are also going to have a boysenberry pudding for dessert but I have never had boysenberries before so I'll see how it tastes. I think my Mum will some how persuade me to watch Mrs Doubtfire but we will see. I can't wait for tonight!
