Ice sheets and shelves

W.A.L.T create a blog post about a task we have done this week.

For reading this week I had to read a book called "Captured in Ice" and then create a google drawing of the different layers of Ice. In the book it showed the different layers and sheets of snow so I just got inspiration from that. We then had to name how deep the Ice goes and write facts about the ice. 

Here is my google drawing:

I enjoyed making the different layers of ice, it was really fun making the gradient and how it gets darker and darker. I also enjoyed showing you how many metres down the ice is.

What I didn't enjoy was moving everything around so it looks nice, it took a while and was kinda boring and I had to switch everything around.

I feel like I could improve on decorating the google drawing more, it looks a bit bland and boring.

What do you like about my google drawing? What do you find interesting?

Kiwi Can

W.A.L.T create a blog post explaining what you did today at Kiwi Can

At school today we went to Kiwi Can. This term we are learning about Resilience and Perseverance. The catchphrase today was "When times get tough, we don't despair, we bounce back up and persevere." 

The game we played today was Octopus. This was my favourite game cause I love the game Octopus!  

How we played:

You have to have a big group of people to be able to play. 2 people in your group have to be the taggers.

Everyone else except the taggers have to line up on a wall or line up somewhere else. You can do it in a field, a big room, etc. You just need somewhere that has a big enough space to run. Once everyone is lined up, the tagger then has to call out something. Example: "If you're wearing blue", Then everyone wearing blue has to run to the other side of the field or room.  While the people are running, the taggers then have to try tag everyone running. If they tag someone, the person that got tagged has to then stand still, they're not allowed to move unless its gang-up, but we didn't do gang-up. Also, if someone got tagged, they are helping the taggers tag people. The game keeps on repeating like before till there is one last runner. Then that last runner is the winner!

Have you played octopus? What is your favourite game?

Art

W.A.L.T upload a piece of art and then blog about it.

For blogging today we had to upload a photo of a drawing/painting we have done in the past year. Here is my art work:

Instructions:

First I drew the shape of the eye

Added a pupil and the inside of the eye

Added eye-lashes

Shaded the eye

I would've added a eye brow but I haven't finished yet.

What I think I did well was drawing the actual eye. It was easy to do and I got inspiration from a image on google.
I think I could improve on shading. Shading isn't my best spot when it comes to drawing. So I definitely could improve on that.

I enjoyed the whole process of making this. I didn't dislike anything when making this drawing.

Do you like the drawing? What do you think I could do better? 

Kiwi Can

W.A.L.T create a blog post explaining what we did today at school.

At school today we had Kiwi can for the first time in a while. 

I wasn't there for most of it cause I had a quiz to do but when we got there, my class was playing a game. How to play the game:

There are two lines of people. If you're the first person up you have to balance a soft ball on top your hand and try to walk to the next line of people without the ball falling off your hand.

Once you get to the end of the line you have to pass the ball to the person at the front and they have to do the same thing just did. It keeps on going on until the game is over. You can count points of how much people did it without the ball falling but out class didn't count points.

Do you have Kiwi can at your school? Do you wanna play this game?

My work over quarantine

W.A.L.T create a blog post explaining out writing for today.

For writing today we had to go through out slide where we posted all out work we've done during quarantine and it up out our slides. Here is my slide:

My favourite thing about doing work from home was listening to music while working. It made the process more relaxing.
My least favourite thing about working from home was that I missed talking to my friends and showing them my work.

Do you like my slide? Is there anything I can change about it?

Cancel the Invasion word search

W.A.L.T create a blog explaining out reading for today.

For reading today we had to do a word search. We had to find words from the book 'Cancel the Invasion'.

 Here is my word search. The most difficult words to find were probably 'reassuring' and 'projectiles' cause they were the only words I couldn't find. The most easiest word to find was 'message' and 'launched' cause they were the first words I found really quickly. How I covered up the words I found was by getting a square on google drawing and then colouring the shape white and covering the word(s). I really enjoyed doing this and I would love to do this again, even in my free time.

Do you like word searches? What is the most interesting word? 

Cancel The Invasion Storyboard

I.A.L.T write a blog post about our writing task for today.

For reading today we had to read a book called 'Cancel The Invasion' then do a storyboard about the main scenes in the book. While making our storyboards we had to include...

- Title and author

- Setting

- Characters

- Ideas at the beginning

- Ideas of the middle

- Ideas from the end

I think the main idea of the story is that you shouldn't judge people by their appearance. In this story the 2 kids acted differently to Ash (main character) because he looked "weird" but Ash ended up to be really nice.

Do you like my storyboard? 

Newspaper

W.A.L.T create a blog post about our reading task.

For reading today we had to read a book called 'Catching a Space Duck' and then use the information in the book to write a newspaper about the event in the book. Here is my newspaper. I wrote about how The ESA landed a robot on the comet 67P.
What I enjoyed is writing, it was fun to come up with things and then write my ideas down.
What I least enjoyed was nothing, I enjoyed the whole process of creating this. I would love to do it again!


Do you like my newspaper? What can I change about it?
