Matariki/Harakere Baskets

 This week we have learning how to make Harakere Baskets. When I made my one and I was working on my one for a long time. We made them for the surges that we are having on Friday and Matariki. Making  Harakere baskets is not easy the baskets  are 7 by 5. This is important because It's our culture. 

This was fun and hard I hope we can do this again. It's not easy to make a Harakere Basket you have to be very genteel or it will brake. It was changing it do this.

My rocket tacks flight

On Wednesday I finished my Rocket so we went outside and lunched it it went start up and on the way down it hit the tree and One wing came off. After the first lunch we tried to lunch it again but when it got to 90 PSI the top came off and the top of the bottle cared. So next time I make a rocket I will pot glue on the top.

When I did this it was really fun and I can not what to do it again. I had to run or the rocket cloud have hit me. IT was so cool because it spun.

Do you think Improve my rocket for next time?
