Where In The World Is?

The Force were given a number of names of rugby-playing nations of the world. These were some of the nations that are recognised by the world governing body of Rugby Union, the International Rugby Board (IRB), as member unions but did not qualify for RWC 2011.
We divided them up amongst our team. I was given Israel.
This is what I found -

Israel is country in the Middle East.The capital city is Tel Aviv.The population of Israel is 7,473,052. too popular sports in Israel are football and basketball.

Where The Heck Is Epsom?

Different Auckland town centres have adopted Rugby teams from countries that qualified for the World Cup. I found out information about : The location in Auckland; Something special about this place; A 'potted' history of the place; If it has it's own symbol of some sort.(If we couldn't find a symbol we chose a picture that told more about the place).

Epsom is a suburb of Auckland. It is located approximately 3 kms south of Auckland city centre.
Epsom is named after a horse racing track and a town in England.
From 1840 - 1890 Epsom was as its rich pasture land, it is now the home of The Easter Show at the ASB Showgrounds.

Keep Your Eye On The Ball

We are using the nations of the 2011 Rugby World Cup as our inquiry path.

For this unit we are in one of four teams: Brumbies, Force, Rebels, Stormers. My team is Force
There will be a number of tasks for us to navigate to achieve our goal of an excellent result in this unit. There are a mixture of individual and team tasks to be completed. The main task that will show our learning in this unit will be a Hyperstudio presentation about one of the countries in the World Cup competition.
I'm looking forward to the all blacks games this year my favorite players are Zack Guilford and Cory Jane and i hope Dan Carter goes well with his kicking.

kiwi injurnarty

A kiwi inventor Glen Martin created a jet pack It was 12 million dollars to invent this jet pack
It can go over 5,000 feet above the water. He had 2 super powered fans on his jet pack, which helped him get air Borune.
You could rescue people with it and can go through tree trails, cliffs and between buildings.
From 2000 feet you can use a parachute making your way down.
A few years ago Glen Martin was getting mocked from other people but it was incredible, he continued working on the jet pack.
They had to test the jet pack with a dummy first,they didn’t know if it was safe but the second time they tried it with a person and it worked well.The us industry are showing interest i in him from making that fantastic jet pack. But then US military army said they were interested in buying the jet pack for 60,000 dollars

I’m thinking camp going to be great! everybody can't wait, it's going to be cool and I hope we are going to do fun stuff .

This years camp of 2011 was great, we did kayaking, rock up, a concert and we went to the swimming pools and it was amazing . After the pools I was starving and everybody just wanted to eat. The food was great from our wonderful help of children and parents especially when we went to Swimarama because they helped us with sport and the lunch for the day. I was in the team called THINKERS! and when we got back to school we had to announce the winner for the whole of camp Take charge, the winners were the Thinkers.

CAMP TAKE CHARGE
WAS AWESOME!!.
