What would I do if I found $50

What would I do if I found $50?

What would I do if I found $50? To be honest I have no clue what I would do because I've never been in that situation. But if I found $50 in my classroom at school then I would probably give it to my teacher for her to take care of. If it was in a different area, let's say GI. If I found $50 in GI on the street not many people around then I would probably keep it. When I pick up the money and no ones looking, I guess I don’t feel like a bad person but when there's people there looking than when they see if they see me pick it up than I feel like a bad person but anyways.If I saw someone drop money on the ground then I would definitely pick it up and give it back to that person. 

What would the consequences be if I picked up $50 of the ground and keeped it? I don’t know but you would have to get in trouble but if you don’t you're lucky but karma would come and bite you in the behind. What if you gave it back what would happen? you would get a big thank you or something like that I don’t know many ways that people can repay you by bringing their money back. I’m not saying if you find money on the ground take it and not give it back but how could they repay you?

What would you do if you found $50 on the ground and do you believe in karma?

spaghetti tower teamwork challenge

Today I went to my literacy class which is room 4 with Miss Stone. We shuffled into our reading groups. My reading group is called Dahl Kauri, Rae Jae Hannah, Nina and Marie are in Dahl. So Miss Stone told us that we have to work together to make a tall tower strong enough to hold a marshmallow out of spaghetti and string. Our tower went really well until the end it was starting to fall. The marshmallow was too heavy but it was just a marshmallow on one piece of spaghetti. At first we were going to make it a square but then we realized that the strongest shape is a triangle so we restarted and made a triangle. We were all trying to make it strong but we were trying to make it tall so we kind of made it weaker as we went on. Once we reached the top of the tower it started to collapse. All of the different reading groups were challenging each other. Ihimaera was the winning group there tower was high and had the marshmallow on the top and it wasn't falling over either it was like the sky tower kinda. But our tower was a bust but it was so fun to reconnect with my reading group.

Greek Mythology

Today for inquiry we learnt about Greek mythology. we learnt about the different Greek gods, the Greek creation story and about Hermes. When Hermes was a baby he invented fire and a lyre (a harp). see my story.
