Weekly Reflection

My highlights this week are the maths tests we did because I love getting better at maths and going to food tech at Selwyn College because I like to cook.

My lowlights this week is reading because I didn’t really like to do summaries.

I am looking forward to building my trampoline because I can jump on it after I build it with my dad.

I need to think about the consequences of my actions because It can lead me into a place that I won’t like or into a place that I will like but most of the time I will be the bad one. My actions will also affect my family.

Water Spouts

Water Spouts

A waterspout is like a Tornado but appears over the water it, It is a pillar of wet air that connects to a cloud. It is described as if it is a magic beanstalk.

There are two kinds of waterspouts  - Non Tornadic and Tornadic. They both need different kinds of weather. Most waterspouts are Non Tornadic and are less dangerous than  Tornadic waterspouts. Tornadic waterspouts can suck up schools of fish.

You need perfect conditions for a waterspout. The air needs to be warm and slightly windy and there should be  Cumulous clouds, (puffy clouds with a flat base).                                                                                                                                        

There are 5 stages for a waterspout to appear. The first stage would be that there would be dark areas in the water. In the second stage spiral patterns would appear in the water. The third stage would be that the air would go horizontally and would spin. The fourth stage would be that the spout would be seen but it would kind of be transparent. The fifth stage would be the funnel will weaken and it would rain and the warmth of the air would feed the waterspout and would only last for ten minutes.

John :10-1-18

The Good Shepherd and His Sheep

10 “Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. 2 The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.5 But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.” 6 Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.

7 Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. 8 All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. 9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved.[a] They will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

11 “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12 The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. 13 The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.

14 “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— 15 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. 17 The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again. 18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”

The image of God in this scripture is a shepherd who loves and cares for his sheep  He does anything to keep them safe.

Weekly Reflection

My highlights this week are when Clint and Teresa came and visited us because they told us a lot of interesting things about doctors,nurses and health experts.

Another highlight was the one hundred questions maths test because I love to do maths.

My low lights this week are when we had to go singing practise because I'm not a fan of singing and because we had to sit there for ages.

Another lowlight was writing about a fake holiday because we had to write 12 paragraphs and I don’t really like writing.

I am looking forward for my Mum’s birthday tomorrow because I get to celebrate that she’s one year older.

I am also looking forward for when school finishes because I can rest for the whole day tomorrow.
