Technology!

Today, My class, Room 6 had Technology. Technology is when you learn about other things than Math, Literacy and other subjects. You learn about science and cooking and design etc. Today we learnt about electricity. Our Teacher, Mr Heath had this device where you turn the handle around and the inside would make some sort of electricity and if you hold the two wires, the electricity will bounce from the wire to your hand and will go through your whole body. If you hold hands with someone, that electricity will go from the wire to you and to the next person. That was just one activity!

Our second activity was making key chains out of acrylic! Acrylic is a type of plastic. We had to use the acrylic to make a key chain. The acrylic has paper on the outside of it so that you can write on it and plan out what it is gonna look like. After you do that, you start cutting. We used a coping saw to cut it because a coping saw has a small blade, small enough to cut a thin piece of acrylic. After you have cut out your shape, you can choose what to do with it after. I chose to use this hot surface thing to melt the middle to twist it. And I wrote my name so it looked awesome!

I had a very fun time at Tech and I can't wait to go again!

Respect In Room 5!

When we were doing the Summer Learning Journey posters, We found out about this thing called 'Biteable'. It is really fun and easy to use! It is a website where you can create animated presentations. All you have to do is choose your theme and write your words down. You can even preview your video to see what you have done! We used this website for this activity. There has been a lot of people who haven't been respectful so We had to make a presentation using Biteable about Respect and how we can show it everyday. This will help us realise that being respectful is a good thing and that we need to be kinder to each other so here is mine:

Hope you like it and Have a Great Day!

The Game

In class, we read a book called 'The Game'. After we read it, we had to choose if we wanted to make our own controller or make instructions for 'Snakes & Ladders'. I chose to make my own controller. We had to add labels showing what the buttons are used for and what they can do. We could either make our own or use the ones like PS4 or XBox but make different buttons for it. I made one up. I hope you like it!

Do You Want To Join Us?

Yesterday, we had to make posters for Market Day.

My poster is for the Briquettes. The reason we did this was because we have a Market day coming up.

Market Day is when your class makes something to sell and sells it. For real MONEY!

The posters are for the other classes to see what we are selling. 

All the money that the classes get will be for their class to have a TREAT DAY!

This day will be on Friday 6th December. It will be from 2.pm - 4.pm.

My group was making posters for Briquettes. This poster is 1 out of many more posters so don't forget 

to check the other blogs as well!

My class will have:

 Waffles with chocolate syrup and ice cream

A Pie Face Game

A Wet Sponge Throw

Spiders (The drink, not the arachnid)

There will also be a Mufti Day so we get to dress up in whatever we WANT!

There will be Christmas Carols at Dressmart as well.

We are gonna sing lots of Christmas songs so If you want to come then come.

I hope you join us on this wonderful day and buy some goodies because you deserve it!

Also here is my Poster

Becoming an Illustrator

In class, we learnt about Gus Hunter. Gus Hunter is an illustrator. He draws pictures to match stories. So after we learnt about him, the article gave us some of Gus' Tips. Using those tips, we had to create an illustration of one of the stories we wrote. I did an illustration on my story Hello? I'll give you 2 of the tips in the book.

- Visualise what you want to draw
- Draw what you see, not what you think you see.

I hope you like my drawing!

P.S I'm sorry if you can't really see. I took this picture on my computer

Don't Kill The Animals

Today In class, we had to make a trap that would capture animals without killing them. This was a tricky task but I found the ultimate answer! This is a fool - proof idea. I thought that if we use a net it will be much easier to catch them because they might hear the gunshots and run away. 

I hope you like it!

Last Activity

This is the final activity. I had to create a 'Super Beetle' and add different things to it to make it unique.
It could be like your dream beetle but whatever you add to it, it had to be useful. This is mine. I might call it... BUGGY the Super Beetle!
