Paralympics (slide presentation)

 Today in my class were we learning about the Paralympics. To support the Paralympics we could either wear a orange or gold clothing to the call. I really enjoyed this activity and I love how they made the Paralympics so disabled people can enjoy it too. I found it very easy to research and find facts about the Paralympics.  

FUN FACTS ABOUT SAINT MARY MACKILLOP

 Today for R.E my class was to choose a saint, then we had to write a slide presentation about the saint we chose. This task was easy but it took me a while. In this activity we were learning about a Saint. The reason why I chose Saint Mary Mackillop because that is the name of a house and I am in Saint Mary Mackillop blue house.

Funky hat day

3D cube

 Today in class one of our activities was to make a 3D shape with paper. I chose to make a cube. I think this activity was supposed to be a walk in the park but I was really frustrated with how difficult it was. Next time I make a 3D shape, I'd like to use a bigger piece of paper because it might be easier. If you want to make your own cube, click this link "How to make a Cube" and let me know what your favourite 3D shape is. 

Explode the lunch bag!!!! (experiment)

 Today my class was able to choose a science experiment of our choice. Our choices was building a fizz inflator, make a volcano or you could explode a lunch bag, and I chose to explode a lunch bag. Making this activity was easy. I found no difficulties in the making of the science experiment. The instructions were easy to follow. This is what I had to do... 

1. Go outside – or at least do this in the kitchen sink.
2. Put 1/4 cup of pretty warm water into the bag.
3. Add 1/2 cup of vinegar to the water in the bag.
4. Put 3 teaspoons of baking soda into the middle of the tissue
5. Wrap the the baking soda up in the tissue by folding the tissue around it.
6. You will have to work fast now – partially zip the bag closed but leave enough space to add the baking soda packet. Put the tissue with the baking soda into the bag and quickly zip the bag completely closed.
7. Put the bag in the sink or down on the ground (outside) and step back. The bag will start to expand, and expand, and if all goes well…POP!

Jigsaw puzzle

 In lockdown my class was assigned to some task to complete in the 3 days of lockdown, and one of those thing was to finish a jigsaw puzzle. I finished my jigsaw puzzle in 5 minute and 24 seconds. I really enjoyed it so much. I found doing the edges were easy but completing the middle was hard.
 

Bees

 This week my class had a science experiment about how bees pollinate flowers. The equipment we had was a tuning fork, a cut ballon, plastic cup, flour ( pollen), paint brush, black laminated paper. Before we did our experiment we had to read the instruction. We used the balloon to cover the top of the cup, then brushed the flour (pollen) onto the balloon after that we hit the tuning fork on a desk or on a chair. Then we gently tip the cup sideways, so I could touch the cup with the tuning fork so we can see the difference. 

After our Science experiment we were to read and find fact about bees. My group called ruby rhinos read the "The Language of Bees and Other Insects" book by Megan Kopp on epic, with our teacher. Our group  had to find key information from the book, then find 20 keywords. When we had 20 key words we narrowed it down to 6 words, after we had our 6 words we had to form up sentences with 6 words.

   

Land of the rising. (ART)

In my class we were learning on how to blend in oil pastels. We had a week and a bit to finish our art.
This piece of painting was inspired by Japan also known as the land of the rising sun. I really enjoyed adding the white cherry blossoms and drawing the pagoda. Do you know what a Pagoda is? A pagoda is a Japanese temple that is usually used for religious reasons. Even though I enjoyed drawing my pagoda it was still difficult.

Tokyo

 Last week my class had to to make a slideshow about Japan, I think that's because the Olympics is held in Japan this year. In the next Olympics I would want it to be held in Mexico because I would love to see what their Mascot will be. I really enjoyed making this slide and finding good facts.  This video helped me.
