Term 1 Week 5 :)

(: Learning In Room 20 :)

Hello! I thought that would talk to you about what I am learning at school in Room 20 so far. We have been learning to do so much in the first 4 weeks.

We learnt how to make music with our body, which means making musical patterns with our voice, hands, fingers and feet. I had so much fun. We had also learnt the meaning of each note, which means, that we had learnt how many beats in a note.

We are also doing an interesting artwork. We did an activaty called taking a pencil for a walk. It's when you take a piece of paper and draw a big squiggle and in between the gaps, you draw lots of patterns. We found out that if we put patterns really close, it creates a dark affect. And when we put patterns far apart it creates a light affect. After that we took a photo of ourselves and draw a grid on top of the photo. We then got given a much bigger piece of paper with a grid on it. We have to enlarge the photo onto the bigger piece of paper using only patterns in each box of the grid. I'm still working on it now, but I hope I can show to you soon!

We have also been doing something called Youthtown. It's a group of people that come to our school and play games on the field that teach us skills like, teamwork and more. Our whole class goes there every Tuesday. I really enjoy it!

Another thing that we did was learning how to make a graph. We got to make a graph. First we asked a question, then we collected the data, we then organised the data, then we displayed it on our blogs ( which is what your on right now! ) then we answered the question and turned it into a graph! Voila! Of course we had to learn how to turn it into a graph, but YAY!

I love my learning in Room 20. I can't wait till I learn more! See You Next Time! :) BYE!
