Ice sheets and Ice shelves

I.A.L.T upload one of my tasks from this week and write about it. 

Hi, today for blogging we had to upload any work we have been doing this week. Today I made a programme of Antarctica that shows the Ice sheet and shelves. I also added a penguin for fun. 

It was hard getting a good colour for the ice because there wasn't much colours that really fit with the Ice. The easy part for me was the ocean and the penguin. 

Here is my programme of Antarctica. 

That is my programme. I really enjoyed making the penguin because I tried making it look silly. 

To improve maybe I can add more detail to it. I found the interesting that I made the penguin look mad. My friend Brooke said that the penguin looks bored.  Have you done something similar like this before?

2nd Kiwi Can

I.A.L.T Write a reflection about the second lesson of Kiwi Can for term two.

Hi, today we had Kiwi Can and it was so much fun. We played fun games like Octopus. Octopus is a game where two or more players are taggers. The rest of the people should be standing by a wall or a fence and they have to try to run to the other side and try not to be tagged. The taggers have to call out something your wearing or a colour and other things. So, that one of the games we played, the other game that we played was Red light Green light. Red light Green light is a game where one person says Green, Red or Orange light, so when the person says Green light, everyone has to run and try to touch the person or something like a chair or a wall. When the person says Orange light, we have to slow down and when he/she says red light, than we have to freeze, but if we don't freeze in time or not at all we have to start all over again. There was a catchphrase and it goes like this 'When times get tough, I don't spare, I bounce back up and persevere' 

Here is a picture of Kiwi Can. 

I really enjoyed playing Octopus because the taggers had to try and catch us on one foot. 

I found challenging to get past some of the taggers when they weren't on one foot because there was three taggers and we were in a small hall. 

Everyone joined in on both of the games and we all were kind to each other. 

If you have Kiwi Can at your school, what games do you play? Did you enjoy the games you play at Kiwi Can? 

  

Space Art

I.A.L.T upload our art and write about it. 

Hi, today for blogging we had to take a picture of our space art that we did. First we had to draw a main planet, rocket ship or anything to do with space and then some other pictures for he background. After that we coloured our drawings with pastels and after that we got called by the teacher to paint our backgrounds. For our backgrounds we used sponges to put paint on.  There was light and dark blue, purple, white and black. I only used light and dark blue, white and purple. I am sure everyone used white to make stars. We took a paint brush and dip it into a little bit of white paint and then we took pencil and hit the pencil on the paint brush and tiny white dots appear on our art work, that's how we made the stars. After that we took our painted backgrounds to the backroom so it can dry and then we started to cut our drawings out. The next step was to take our background and paste our pictures that we draw on the background. This is my art work I did. 

I really enjoyed painting my background and colouring my pictures in.

I learned that you can draw a picture and call it your name, and that's what I did, I called one of the planets I drew, Natasha.

I found colouring in the lines with pastel was challenging. 

Did you ever do something similar what we did? If you did, did you enjoy it and was t hard or easy?  

Letter

IALT: Choose one of my reading task and upload it to my blog

Hi, today for blogging we had to choose a reading task we did this week. I choose my letter I wrote yesterday. We had to pretend to write a letter to the Author who wrote 'Becoming a Martian'. To write the letter, we had to respond to several questions that were asked to the audience. Here is my letter.

Reflection:

I enjoyed writing the letter because some of the questions were really fun to answer.

I found the questions really interesting because some questions were really different. 

I think next time I could improve on try to write a little bit more because I don't write lots.

Do you think you would survive living in a tiny space surrounded with strange people and you could only send Emails and texts, not calls? 

KiwiCan

Hello, to day we had KiwiCan. It was so much fun. We have KiwiCan on Wednesday and last week our teacher said that KiwiCand is back up. 

I was so excited because in KiwiCan we get to play and learn new games. Today we played with a ball and we had to balance it on our wrist. It was so much fun and I can't wait to see what other games we will play on Wednesday. Do you have KiwiCan at your school? If you do, what games do you and your class play? Is the games fun? 

Bye. (:

Adding decimals numbers

W.A.L.T upload one maths task from this week and write about it.

Hi, today for blogging we had to upload one of our Maths task this week. I made a quiz about decimals. I had fun making it. Here is my quiz. Have fun!

I enjoyed getting a character for my quiz and what I could improve on is not talk so much and I could maybe have put another decimal question on. Bye! (:

The welcome card

Hi, today for blogging we had to choose a reading task to put on our blog and I choose the welcome card where we had to make a welcome card to someone who is coming to our school. Hope you like my one. 

So yeah. That's my letter. What did you think? I enjoyed writing this letter. So, did you ever do a welcome card before?
