Shape Art

Shape Art

This is my shape art. We were learning how to draw 3D objects and shade them in realistically. We learnt to draw a cube, cylinder, sphere and a cone. We cut them out and glued them onto a black piece of paper. We then took a picture of us pushing or leaning on the shapes. We glued them together and put a white border on them. and now they look pretty cool.

Pirate Ship

Pirate Ships

This term we have been learning about geometry. We have learnt all about nets of a 3D shapes. With all of our knowledge we got to choose if we wanted to make a treasure chests or pirate ships. Tanzee and I decided to work together to make a pirate ship. I found it tricky to put the shapes together. I found it easy to measure out the nets. Next time I would like to do something like this, but more challenging.

Term 4 Week 6 :)

(: Learning In Room 20 :)

We have been doing quite a lot these few weeks. I'm so exited to tell you about it.

This term we got a new student teacher! Her name was Miss Terry. She was here for five weeks. We had so much fun with her! We read a new book and we did Inquiry projects! She'll definitely make a good teacher.

This term we read a new book called Between Two Ends. It's about a boy called Yeats who gets sucked into a book called Arabian Nights at his grandma's house. It turns out that his fathers childhood friend has been stuck in the book for 20 years! Yeats has to save her and get back home. This is a really good book because it uses really good language and is really interesting.

This term for our inqt anbuiry we have been studying the idea of what if the world became uninhabitable? We looked at the things that humans need to survive. Water, Food, Shelter, Air and Warmth. We learnt about a place called biosphere 2. Biosphere 2 was made by scientists to see if the could replicate the earth. We got into groups and made a diorama. They turned out really well.

I had a really fun time doing all these things in room 20. I hope I can talk to you later! See ya!

Term 3 Week 1 :)

(: Learning In Room 20 :)

New term! Hooray! Even though it's only been one week, I still have tons to tell you! :) This first week has been so fun!

Art: We've been doing some cool art this week! We're doing it for our calender's. It's called Dice Flowers. You have this chart that has lots of patterns, like half circles and spikes and stuff like that. You have to roll a dice and the number you got you have to look for it on the chart and then look at the pattern next to it. They are starting to look really good and soon we're going put dye on them.

Bike Skills: We are doing bike skills this term. We get to do mountain biking too! We get to ride over ramps and all of that cool stuff! I can't wait for our next lesson. We are also preparing for camp. We get to do mountain biking there too, so we get to practice now!

Cross Country: ...Yay...Cross Country...So Fun...Not... No offence but I'm not a cross country person. I just don't like running. I would run with my puppy, but not very fast! I'll just stick with gymnastics!

Those are 3 of the things I have done this week. Oh! And we are starting a new book called A Wrinkle In Time. But I'll tell you more next time, See Ya! :)

Slime Buddy

In room 20 we have been doing a sort of poem called a ballard. A ballard can also be turned into a song. A ballard consists of 4 lines in each stanza. A stanza is the word you use for a paragraph in a poem. A ballard has a special rhyming pattern. The rhyming pattern was ABCB. I found it easy to find a topic and write the stanzas. I found difficult to find the rhyming words. Next I would like to do another ballard with another topic.
