Summer Learning Journey Aquatic Animal

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey. My topic was about Aquatic Animals. This topic was about creating an Aquatic Animal and using the tools in Google Drawing to shape it. The Aquatic Animal that I chose was an octopus. I chose it because my mum thought it would be a good idea to does something challenging. As I was creating my Octopus I noticed how fast, quick and easy it was to use the tools in Google drawing. Finally as I added my finishing touches to my Octopus, I was ready to make my blog. I took a screenshot of  my animal and then was ready to post my blog. Here is my Aquatic Animal.

Summer Learning Journey Chippy Challenge

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey. My topic was called the Chippy Challenge. I had to look through videos that originated way back to 1885. I had to look through them and see the story about Fish and chips. It was really cool seeing all these new things that I had not known before. I felt surprised when I heard that a young rich boy at the age of 8 would cook fried fish and sell it to the poor people out on the streets.

 

After I looked through the video I started on making my logo for my menu. It was going really well but it took quite a while because of all the searching and removing backgrounds that I had to do. Finally it was ready and I would be able to post a blog all about it. I cannot wait till my next activity so then I can share all my work with you guys. Here is my Logo for a Fish and Chips Menu.

Japanese Puffer Fish

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey. My topic is about Japanese Puffer fish.When I picked this topic I knew it would be fun because we were using Google Drawings. After we did our Google drawing about the Japanese Puffer Fish I had to make 5 facts about the Japanese Puffer Fish.Finally I had to make a screen recording on my project. I put it into a Google slide and got ready along with my sloth buddy Fuzzy.He gave me confidence that I can do this. When I started my recording it went so fast it was like a flash of lightning. I was glad that I did this project because I learned more about Google Drawing and time to learn all about a new sea animal. Here is my screen recording about a Japanese Puffer Fish.

Summer Learning Journey Sea Safari

Today I decided that I would do the Summer Learning Journey . I found an activity on Arts that was called”Sea Safari – Kick Start. I thought it would be cool because I would be able to use a new website called Polypad. I had never used Polypad before but when I watched the video about it I knew it would be cool to do. As I started off with my learning I noticed it was quite difficult for me to move and resize the shapes. Not long I got the hang of it and it was easy for me to continue on with my learning. As I finished I took a screenshot and was ready to post my blog for today. Here is my picture of what I think a sea pig would look like.

Wavy Words – Step it up

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey Wavy Words – Step it up Challenge. As I was looking for  another challenge I came across Mr Goodwins Wavy words. While I was watching the video I felt a bit worried because I thought that I was not very good at making Poems. Especially when we were only allowed to use one letter from the Alphabet. Then when I started my work I found out how easy it would be. I got a little bit stuck on my Poem but after a few minutes I wrote everything down and was ready to write my Blog.  I took a screenshot so that I can share it with you guys on my blog.Here is my Alphabetical Wavy word Brainstorm and my Poem about Dolphins starting with the Letter D.

PS:Don’t mind the letter Q and sadly can’t show the picture so press the Link.

Step it up – Masks of Te Moana

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey. As I was scrolling through the Summer Learning Journey site I stumbled upon the Step it up – Masks of Te Moana. It looked fun so I decided to have a go. When I found out that it was about creating on Google Drawing I got excited because I love playing around on Google Drawing. At first it started off hard until I got the hang of it. When I finished I took a screenshot so I can share it with you guys on my blog. Here is my Traditional African Mask of Te Moana.

Summer Learning Journey Teasers (Wanted Feared fish)

Today I was doing the Summer Learning Journey Teasers. The Teasers I was doing was called “Wanted” Feared Fish. It was quite fun to do because I got to search through for some fish that I had never known of.My fish is a Piranha and I was warning people about how Piranha’s can cause severe bleeding when they bite.Here is a screen shot of my work.

 

 

Creative Writing in Rm 7

During term 2 we read Dragon Ball books and did some drama activities to understand about the characters.Then we started to create our own stories based in the Dragon ball world. I enjoyed our Dragon Ball story writing because we could learn how to use our own words to make our own stories.

 

A little boy named Akihiko was walking around the Tournament grounds crying because he could not find his parents anywhere. Suddenly Goku heard a big sob coming from Akihiko s then Goku rushed  to see what was going on. The little boy said to Goku that he could not find his parents. Goku said that he would help Akihiko find his parents. Akihiko was filled with great joy. Goku called Kinto’un who comes, picks them up and flys over the arena.

 

They look over houses, beaches, the city and the country side. Then Akihiko asked Goku

’’How come I am able to fly on this cloud?”

Goku answered “It is because you are pure of heart. You are very friendly as well”.

Akihiko was very jolly and said to Goku ‘’ So does that mean if others who are pure of  heart can ride it too?”  Goku said ‘’ You are right ‘’.

 

They kept searching some more but they could not find his parents anywhere. Then Goku asked where the little boy’s house was. Akihiko said that his house was right next to the arena. They flew over but when they checked inside the house it was empty. They gave up hope and left the house.

They both sat on a bench back at the Arena. The little boy started to cry again because he really missed his parents. Then he heard his name being called from a really loud speaker. He heard it again and quickly stopped crying and stood up. He climbed on a wall and saw his parents searching for him. Then he told Goku “That’s them….that’s my parents!”

 

Goku stood up and he and Akihiko ran over to the other side of the wall. They both had to push through people because it was a really big crowd. Then when they found his parents Akihiko and his parents were filled with great joy. They had tears and hugs for a whole minute. Then the parents turned to Goku and thanked him.

That evening they rewarded him with dinner, but instead of sharing the food he ate the whole thing up. After dinner he raced off to join his friends to hopefully see them again at the next tournament.

 

Reaching Our Destination

Last term week 2 we  started our Road to Paris with Rm 6. Road to Paris is a exercise routine that you do every day.You count how many laps you have done and you times it and it will show you how many Kilometres you have done.You can also do sports and do the maths from how long you did it for. After we got everyone’s meters, we added them up and put it on the Road to Paris website which told us how far we were to Paris.Finally today we made it after lunch.We were doing  Rippa Rugby and we added it which was 9.76 km. I felt so relieved that we were finally going to stop running but I was also happy that we made it.
