TML(The Mind Lab) Trip

On 22.09.15 Tuesday My class (GRi11) went to The MindLab in Petone,Wellington there were heaps of fun activities that we could do, our class had a really great time at MinLab.

 

There was Stop Motion Animation and it was really fun and crazy we got to make our own animations and my groups one was the wizards spell in the animation the wizard did a spell on a dog and something went wrong with the spell and it grew bigger and bigger each time and and it exploded on the dog and the dog turned into a bull and it killed the wizard. There is a variety of settings that you can choose from.

This is the 3d Printing it is my favourite part at MindLab, we got to create our own 3d printing and we know that everyone wants there own 3d printing, and guess what when you've made your design they send it over to your place and you can make whatever you want so that you can enjoy what you do.

There is also the Scribble-bots and you make a robot that makes scribbles and you need a plastic cup a motor and pens etc you attach the pens and motor onto the cup and you can make it scribble on the paper and it looks very cool.

There was another thing called a MaKey MaKey and it was something that you use with circuits you put a wire on the earth and another wire into something different and you can play anything you want like play-dough and it can play what you wanted it to do.

These are the cars that we can make using cardboard CD disc's that make your car move and it moves when you give it a boost so that it will go and they can make a raceway and test there cars to see that if they can improve there car.

$10 Note Writing

One day there was a little girl named Rosie she had a favourite game called CandyLand, the reason she loved the game was because you earn money each time you find a special piece of candy shaped as a key you eat it and then you earn a note if the key candy is gold if it is silver you get a coin when you earn money you can go to the store and buy junk food so you won't starve. Later after a week the maker of CandyLand decided to promote the game so on the day that they promoted she (Rosie) wished that she could teleport into the game so that night she secretly sneaked over to the TV and stood next to it she closed her eyes and... She'd teleported into the game she knew it was going to be dark so she galloped all the way to find a bed she saw a round lollie that looked like a bean bag so she jumped onto it, After she felt a little cold she had an idea she could keep herself warm by wrapping herself with lolly wrappers. After that day she felt her stomach rumbling so she remembered that when you earn money you can buy junk food with it, she searched and searched for a key but she couldn't she started roaming around and then she saw a cute jellybean also searching for a key she also remembered that was the character she always used on the game. She saw a gold key she ate it and she sprinted to the junk food stall she bought a burger and a grape soda she finished it and then she felt energetic so she ran and looked for her favourite character Bob he hid behind the jaw breaker and she looked behind and she found him I'm scared scared she said to the bean she wanted to go back home out of CandyLand so she asked if Bob if he could help her she told him why she needed his help,After a few seconds he went and he came back with a remote so she said will you teleport me out of here he said that he can't unless she paid her $50 so she used the spare money to teleport her out of CandyLand she went got teleported back it was still dark she tiptoed to her room she found that everything in her room was made out of money she woke up and she realised it was all a dream but when she found the golden coin she fell into deep trouble she saw her money she got from the game that all that time the money was edible so she ate it but it tasted horrible so. After that day she went to school and told her friends about it and also her friends gave her money but she didn't want it she gave it to her other friend Sarah her friend said thanks and now she goes through the same 

How to play go home stay home!!

Hi today I'm going to teach you how to play go home stay home it is really fun to play with your friends and family.

1. You need at least 5 people to play.

2. You need to find a home so when the tagger chases you, you can run to the home.

3. When you have touched the house you say ''go home stay home 1,2,3''.

4. You can do 21 so you know which person will be the tagger.

5. The tagger will count to twenty and the others that are not the tagger have to run away somewhere they want

6. The first person that was tagged is the tagger for the next round.

7. If no one gets back to the home then the same tagger is in again for the round.

Thank you for listening I hope you enjoyed knowing how to play a new game or learned how to play this game.
