Technology - Food

  Hi everyone. In technology, we have been making our own muesli-bars and muesli-bar boxes (we haven't started making the muesli-bars yet).  The muesli bar boxes were really fun to make, if you are wondering why why we did not make a muesli-bar bag instead, well we just found it too complicated and it didn't seal well. We made our own design and label, we even made our own mascot (it's the winky-face -> 😉). And here is our product 😁 (it's not a real product though 😂):

                            Back (We are putting the ingredients in later, and we misspelt it 😅)

Maths - Measuring

   Hi everyone, last week in maths (strand), we learned about measuring. We used cups and glasses and poured water into them. Then, we made a 3x5 chart and wrote the glass, estimate and answer (if you don't understand then see the slide below). So here is the slide 😁:

Calendar Art

  Hi everyone! This week This month, we have been making our calendar art. The theme for our calendar art this year is dot art. It is really fun and we got to do our own designs and dot them (we didn't get really creative though 😅).  There were only two steps but it took a long  time. So, the first step was making a design using pencil, then, we dotted our design using paint and cotton buds (we used nearly all our time doing drafts 😁, the real process took only 3 days). This is what my art looks like in the end 👻:

Digital Citizenship - Doodling Face

   Kia Ora everyone, today at digital citizenship we made our own faces on a google drawing by using the curve tool. We put a picture at the back and went over it with the curve tool. It was a pretty easy, but long process 😀. Here is the finish product ✌:

Reading - Eat Less Meat

  Hi everyone, this week in reading I (and my reading group) made slideshows about why we should eat less meat (with a few facts as well 😊). It was a pretty easy process, I you enjoy the slide ✌:

Why we should eat less meat

Writing - Describe a Moment in Time

  Hi everyone, this week we did a describe a moment in time writing. Describe a moment in time writings are different and unique cause instead of just free-writing we have to have the writing in present tense and we must not say I or name the character cause you're not in the writing and you don't know the person in the writing. We have been doing these writings cause we are doing a writing test about describing a moment in time, so we have to get ready 😁. Anyway, here is my writing:

 

Writing - Metaphors

   Kia Ora everyone, today at writing we learned about metaphors. We learned that metaphors are a figure of speech that describes an object. And, we also learned how to tell the difference between metaphors and similes. Similes are sentences that compare things with other things using 'as' and 'like', like: the sun is like a light-bulb in the sky. But metaphors are sentences that describe things using 'is', 'was', 'were', and 'are', like: Your room is a pigsty. Anyways, here is my work that I did today ✌.

Reading - Should we eat Less Meat?

  Hi everyone, today in reading we were discussing if we should eat less meat. And we got 2 different sides from this.

What side are you on?

These are the 2 sides that I came up with:

Writing - Similes

  Kia Ora everyone, today our class learned about similes. If you don't know what similes are, then they are like describing something using a different word, and, it is only a simile if it has like or as in it. An example is lie: As fast as lightning. Today we also did a google doc sheet to fill in. Here it is 👇:

Reading - Responding to Opinions - Eat Less Meat

   Hi everyone, today in reading we did a writing about opinions, there is Person A and Person B. Two of those people have different opinions and here they are:

So, what opinion do you agree to? Here is my opinion:

Reading - Wonder/Wonderous

   Hi everyone, our class has been reading a book called wonder written by R.J Palacio and it is an amazing book (though we haven't reached the end yet 😂). So we found this site where you can make your own wonder profile. And it is so much fun, so make sure you check it out 👍.

This is my one by the way ✌

Reading - Author's Purpose Quiz

   Kia Ora, in reading with miss McLeod we have been learning about author's purpose. Author's purpose is when you read the sentence or the writing and see which thing the writing is about: To inform, persuade or entertain. Today we did a quiz to see our opinions about each sentence (inform, persuade or entertain). Do you think these are the right answers 😋?

Reading - Eat less meat

 Hi everyone, today in reading our group did an activity about eating less meat. The activity is to write a piece of writing explaining why we all should eat less meat. It was a pretty easy thing to write about cause I was quite familiar with the subject already. Anyways, here is my piece of writing 😋:

Writing - Show (don't tell)

 Kia Ora everyone, today is a Tuesday which means in writing we will get taught by the wonderful Miss.H. In writing we did an activity called show don't tell. Show don't tell is about showing how a person/character is feeling in a story rather than telling the reader the exact feeling. I found 2 feelings kinda hard, they were shy and annoyed. But in the end I finished the whole thing 😁.
