My report on Baron Pierre De Coubertin By Nicola

                                      

Who wants to know who Baron Pierre De Coubertin is? Well I happened to learn all about him. Baron Pierre De Coubertin is famous for reviving / bringing back the Olympic games.

When Baron Pierre De Coubertin was growing up, he was brought up in a rich French family. Baron was born on new years day ( January first ) in 1863, plus he was the fourth child. His dad was an artist and sold his paintings on a display in Parisian salons. Also his mum was a musician. His relationships between his parents was unfortunately strained.

He went to law school for awhile then left after a year. Soon Baron went to another department and learnt more about science and politics. He  had an interest in Sports and education. Once he went to England and met a person called William Penny Brooks, and together they studied the history of the Olympics Games ( which we call ‘ancient Olympic Games’ )   and started a good series of sporting festivals .  

Once Baron was the Nd president of the international Olympic committee.

Sadly Baron died in 1937, in September 2nd when he was just 74 in Geneva, Genève, Switzerland.

My Tapa Instructions By San Tat

My Tapa.
I needed a ruler to do my Tapa. First I ruled the grid. I drew patterns in my Tapa. then I went over the patterns with vivid. When I finished the vivid I put brown dye over my Tapa. I
also put the bleach over where I wanted it to be white.First I drew the pattern with a pencil then with black vivid.Next I scrunched up my paper before dyeing it brown.I am happy when I look at my tapa.I liked using the ruler the best.

How far will your jet propelled Cable Car travel?

This week we have been making jet propelled cable cars. We first made a rectangular prism and a triangular prism. We glued the prisms together to make a cable car. From there we had to thread a fishing line through a straw, stick the cable car onto the straw and blow up a balloon really big. We attached the blown up balloon to the cable car and let it take off. Tyler did really well with his cable car with a distance of 8 metres. Piripi's, Kifi's, Pace's and Miss Chapman's cable cars travelled the same distance which was 7 metres. Fine's cable car travelled the shortest distance which was 3 metres. It was a fun activity letting the balloon off and measuring whose cable car travelled the furthest.
