• the different organs in our bodies like intestines (Cooper)
• the brain feels like an avocado (Dominic)
• if you need to scratch the nerves send a message to the brain saying 'you need to scratch' (Ella)
• messages run at 200 - 250 km/phr (Louis)
• your brain gets 200,000 messages per second (Kaiya) 
• if you tie all your veins together they stretch for 75km (Toby)
• Everyone has a brain even if it is the size of a peanut (Miranda)
• the spinal cord is like a highway (Kushang)
• if you get surprised your nerves run at 500- 560km/phr (Kate)
• messages can travel up to 560km/phr (Daena)
• the brain sends messages to the nerves (Lucia)
• the right side of your brain controls the left side of your body and the left side of your brain controls the right side of your body (Baden)

The day our buddy letters came.

Today we learnt about our buddy class at Point View School. First we looked at their blog and wiki to see what things they are learning this term. 

Harry and Phoebe were our posties delivering our mail. It was cool getting out own envelope addressed to us individually. Each of us got a letter and a photo (now, that was great-  we now know what our buddies looks like).

We spent our writing session reading our letters about our buddies and writing replies. Dominic thought it was cool that his buddy likes the same things he does. We are all looking forward to communicating with our buddies more often and maybe we can get together sometime later in the year.  That would be really cool!

Cyber safety

Today I went and watched a cyber safety performance by some people by Tai and Laura it was based on a true story I think it was cool. Because I have read it and its the same but with songs . I Really liked the characters because some of the scenes were really cool and funny at the same time. I enjoyed it so much as well as the hot seat asking questions I learnt a lot from that performance some of those hot seat questions were a little weird my favourite character was Dylan he was kind but then mean that was a great performance it was cool.
