Technology 


On Monday and Tuesday the 27th and 28th we had technology.It was our last lesson for our whole point view school years.Us kids took advantage.Before we tell you we are supporting a really cool charity the Westpac helicopter so we were doing something similar and donating but making something for someone alse. This very last lesson we were making was cd/dvd/book shelfs/holders/ we could choose between skinny wood or fat wood the good news was skinny wood was easy to cut but the bad news was the fat wood was harder to cut.With the wood we could make any shape we wanted for the side some people made 1d shapes apple shapes or just plain.After we could sand the wood with the MONSTER machine to make it smoother.Then make some holes for the sticks to go in.After that we had painting.To make it dry faster we had to get a tissue called poo poo paper :(.Its drys so fast.Next we had carving we at least carve 1 maori pattern like koru,tiki and many more.And then we could do whatever we wanted to calve.Some of us including me were called the calving hogs.At the end they all looked really cool I think everyone loved their gift.
