Bottle Experement
Materials:
Empty juice bottles of different sizes
Water
Air
Procedure:
1. Arrange the empty juice bottles from the smallest to the largest.
2, Blow air into the bottles, and listen to the pitch of the sound.
3 .Fill each bottle with water up to the level marked on the bottle.
once again,
4. Blow air into the bottle and listen to the pitch of the sound.
Results.
Once water was placed in the bottles,, the pitch of the sound changed according to the size of the bottle each time we blew into it.
This also came about with empty bottles, just blowing air into them. We found the larger the bottle, the lower the pitch of the sound.
Conclusion:
From this experiment, I have learnt that air pitches at different levels when blown into different sized bottles.
The Crowd Goes Wild
I so looking forward to the Shot Put and Valerie Adams at the next Olympics. I hope Valerie wins gold for New Zealand again.

My Place In This World
Hi my name is Tame’e.
My Family comes from Tonga, but my Dad comes from Vava’u which is town in another part of Tonga. My Mum comes from the Capital of Tonga, Nuku'alofa.
My Goals are to study Singing and Drama. My idol is my older sister Eseta. She taught me how to sing when I was just 4 years old.
My strongest interest is singing because my family have been singing all their lives. My brother and his band, which won Pacifica Beats, made a song for all reggae lovers called Reggae’s My Heart. So I want to be the next step on the family musical tree. I really want to sing and do drama because I want to follow in my parents footsteps. My mum and Dad were always the soloists in the youth group at our church.
Reggae has been in my family since my brother and his band won Pacifica
Beats.
.
Sometimes I sing in church with my family and other young people.
We always have a chance to compete with other youth in singing competitions.
I really want to get in to University to be a Music Teacher to help kids follow their dreams of singing.

Constable Julie measured 70 meters from the Playground to Room 9 in the senior school.
I have learnt a lot more about Stopping Distance and Pedestrian Safety.I'm really looking forward to her next visit.

What a Blury Day?
She would always play with me,sing with me and give me money.She would tell me stories from back in the days and tells me stories about the rest of the family especially my mums side.I reall
Every morning I would always think she is at home but not.She would always make breakfast and our favourite, which was delicious Pancakes and crunchy CocoPops.I really wanted to have a real big bite of the pankaces she made.It just didn’t feel right eating others peoples pankaces couse, it remineds me of Nenas ones.
The last time I saw her was at New Years Eve and she was good as better.The last thing she said to me was “Have a great year” she mutterd.
Sometimes late at night when the house is quiet,I feel her presence around me.This has helped me remember all the good times.I finally understand the saying time is a great healer.

Simile
Definition:
a simile is a sentence using AS and WAS.
She is as pretty as a picture
It was as old as a old picture
He took off like a aeroplane
The pig smelt like a rubbish dump
The old man was as mean as prison
My grandmother was as gentle as jesus!!!
She was as talented as ADELE
The boy ran like a CHEETAH
My pancake tasted like BANANA CAKE
His room was as messy as my BROTHERS ROOM
It was so cold like I was in Antarctica
I was so sick that it went to the hospital
He was as annoying as my little brother.
I was so sad that it felt like a Tongas king died which he did.
Best Friends 2005 - 2012
You are my best friend,
My very best friend,
You make me happy,
Everyday,
You share your great snacks,
You share your best toys,
So please don't take
My best friend away.
My Best Friend
Today I found a friend,
Who knew everything I felt.
She knew my every weakness,
And the problems I've been dealt.
She understood my wonders,
And listened to my dreams.
She listened to how I felt about life and love,
And knew what it all means.
Not once did she interrupt me,
Or tell me I was wrong.
She understood what I was going through,
And promised she'd stay long
I reached out to this friend
To show her that i care
To pull her close and let her know
How much I need her there
I went to hold her hand
To pull her a bit nearer
And realized that this perfect friend I found
Was nothing but my mirror.

I AM POEM 2012
I am Tamee Taufa
I am special and chubby
I see lollies floating in the air
I want to be a teacher just like Mrs George
I am special and chubby
I pretend to sing on X factor
I feel the ground breathing
I touch the clouds
I worry that my family will not be together
I am special and chubby
I understand that everyone has a life
I say hello to my friends
I dream that I am singing on the stage in front of millions of people
I try my hardest to make my dream come true
I hope all my wishes come true
I am happy and hard working
