Banana Smoothie Cooking Show

Last week Room 20 used all the leftover bananas from the ironman to make delicious banana smoothies.  Kees, Zac, Henry and Marc created a cooking show to explain what we did.  These four boys had to create a storyboard and script, plan the props and practice all of  which they did completely independently.  It is their first movie for the year so they have included in the comments what they would do next time to improve their work.  But for a first go, I think they have done extremely well.  You might need to listen carefully as the sound isn't too good!

VOICE IT!

Do you agree with the Auckland City Council's decision to bring elephants over from Sri Lanka to be at the Auckland Zoo?

Why Earthquakes Occur by Zac

Wow!  Read Zac's explanation of Why Earthquakes Occur...

An earthquake is when the earth moves.
The inside of the earth is made up of the crust, mantle, outer core and the inner core.  The earth's surface is made up like an egg shell. The shell is called tectonic plates.
Where two plates meet it's called a fault line. The plates move when the mantle circulates causing the plates to move in different directions. When two of them get stuck they rub together and try to move when it is happening energy builds up. Then the energy releases. It shoots through the fault lines causing the plates to move. When the energy dies down the plates stop moving and there a lot of damage all around where the earthquake happened. Some earthquakes are very destructive and some are so small you that you can't even feel them.
