 READING

Hey everyone! For reading today we had to pick an activity on our activity board. I chose to make a poster, We had three options to make the poster about and one of them was Adolf Hitler. I enjoyed doing this activity as I found it was really interesting learning about him! The thing I found the most challenging was trying to find just facts about him.

Reading- Jackdaw

READING JACKDAW

 Hey everyone the past 5-6 weeks we have been doing some reading, My group and I have been reading the book the boy in the striped pyjamas and along with it we had about 8 activities to complete. The book that we read got sadder and sadder towards the end (it's a good book though). The thing I most enjoyed about my reading was making the jackdaw at the end and colouring it in! And the thing I found the most challenging was reading the book for 1 hour then stopping and reading it the next day as it was sort of hard to remember the book the next day or maybe the next 2 days! If you don't know what a jackdaw is, it is a  poster explaining things like Characters, Setting, Plot, Moral and theme or whatever you want but we did ours based on our book!

I hope you like it. 

Current advents quiz, A green puppy!

A Green puppy!

Today for our current advents quiz we got to pick a question we would like to answer. I picked this one that had happened in Italy and it was that a little green puppy had been born. Everybody says that green puppies are extremely rare and not many people have them or have seen them. The thing I enjoy about doing these current advents articles is that I get to learn new things and find out new things. We have been doing this every week or a couple of days so far and I have already learned quite a lot. The most challenging thing about this is that we have to use what we already know and we are not allowed to search for any answers we have to use prior knowledge. The thing I am looking forward to doing another one of these is that I will learn more interesting facts.

Asking prices for Auckland houses!

Average asking prices for Auckland houses

Good morning guys! yesterday we started a quiz called current events. There were approximately 15 questions and we had to answer them all by choosing A B or C. Today we chose one of the questions we answered yesterday and found out as much information as we could. The thing that I found the most challenging out of this task would most likely be finding out the information and finding out what they have gone up to! The thing I most enjoyed was probably making the poster and finding out new things.

 

The different biomes/sea zones

Hello, everyone, this slide is about the different biomes/sea zones. In this me and my friend talk about the different zones in the sea and some facts and the sea creatures that live in that specific zone. The name of all the different zones is Sunlit zone (yes it is spelled like that) Twilight zone, Dark zone, Abyss zone, and the trenches!

 

Yellow crazies

Yellow Crazies

Today we read a book called: A invasion of yellow crazies. The yellow crazies are a type of ant that is a yellow type of ant that is not dangerous. This ant only sprays a type of acid and can make people's skin quite itchy. They can crawl into your house at night and can climb into anything such as food, beds, machines, clean washing ( be aware they can spray their acid all over it), and many other things. We created a title that could be used for the book, as you can tell we didn't do a very good job of making the ants. These ants are part of an ecosystem and are a living organism. 

Ecosystem word find

Hello, everybody, this is my word find I had to do for reading today. There are not many words but have a go. Good luck!

Hi everyone today for our reading we got to create some stars. My mum and I had a crack at it and tried our best. They are way harder then they look. If you are making these I really recommend all the same size of flax so it looks neater. Also, try and get the soft bits of flax and not the hardcore of it. I liked following the video the most because you can pause it and it goes through step by step. My mum's id on the right and mine is on the left. We compared it to what the lady did and I think I won.

Fun reading

Reading

Hi everybody here is some facts about Anzac day and found really interesting and more thongs I want to learn about. I really enjoyed this because we could get as creative as we wanted and make whatever we want with the questions. I found this challenging because I had to decide what I wanted to make out of the questions!

Egg puns and jokes

WALT: Write down in a google drawing what are some funny egg words.
I Enjoyed adding color and writing funny words that actually make sense.
I found it challenging to think of lots and lots of words that make sense.
To be BTB we could make the words bigger and clearer so they are easy to read.

Reading activites

WALT: Create reading activities online.
This is a reading activity that I made we do reading activities every week.
I enjoyed writing all of my words and adding colour.
I found it challenging to get the right photos to show what I am explaining. I am trying to explain that you should keep your dog on a leash all the time because you could lose your dog.
To be BTB ( better than before ) I could and more colour that makes the Drawing stand out more.
