Rugby World Cup

The Rugby World Cup
The Rugby World Cup has started! My school is celebrating it by getting dressed up in black and white. I came dressed up in a black, long skirt, a white spotted scarf, some black leggings and black socks. At school we were allowed to have some face paint. We got a senior to paint our faces. On my face I had a silver fern on each cheek and the sign that meant the Rugby World Cup on my chin.  We also blacked out our tables. We got black paper and drew All Blacks signs.





Cross Country

On the seventeenth of September we had  cross country. I came second place, my friend got first and my other friend got third. I think I did well in the cross country because I'm not a keen runner but I had to push hard to come second place.
Here is a photo of my friends and I with our certificates:

Soil In Science

We did an experiment! It was called Whats In My Soil?
Here is my procedure for the experiment: 

Kon-tiki

My reading group read a story called Kon - tiki. Its about a person called Thor Heyerdahl who made the raft with his crew. It was made out nine balsa logs lashed together with hemp rope. They were going to sail from Lima, Peru to the Polynesian Islands. Lots of people thought that the raft wouldn't make it but guess what, they made it! We made our own Kon-tiki so we could imagine what it was like when Thor Heyerdahl and his crew were sailing. I don't think that the water shows huge waves!  I made mine with a friend. We sailed them in a paddling pool. I think that my raft would sail to the Polynesain islands. My raft was the only one who sailed with a sail on it.

Seeking Help

Today I was learning how to solve a problem online when other people posted naughty things. Also how to stop them sending bad things.
I enjoyed learning how to replace my image and put a selfie instead. I liked writing and thinking what I would write.
I found it challenging to replace my image because I pushed the wrong thing!
My digital learning object shows that I can join arows to the shapes to make a flow chart.
Next time I would change my shapes and add richer messages.

Netiquette

Today I was learning what netiquette was. Also to learn what you should say when you are posting an email or blog post.
I enjoyed making pretty colours and fonts to make my drawing stand out.
I found it challenging to decide on the colours shapes and messages.
My digital learning object shows that I can take learning from a video and make a google drawing.
Next time I would change where my speech bubbles are and the colours of them.

Osmosis

                                                                  Osmosis
In Science we did an experiment. We got some dye and placed a daffodil in it. Then we left it over night and in the morning we saw that the daffodil had absorbed the dye and it was showing in the petals. The scientific name for this is osmosis. It shows us how flowers get their water to grow. After we drew the daffodil.
                                                 
 Here is my art of the osmosis.

Power Words

Today I was learning how to treat others nicely online. Also to stop and think before going on an website.
I enjoyed finding pictures to go with the words. Plus learning what power words mean. It was fun when I found the right picture because I felt excitement in me.
I found it challenging to remember the the power words. That was because I forgot the order of the words.
My digital learning object shows that I can listen to a video and take the learing and put it on a slide.
Next time I would change where the pictures are and maybe make them.

Animation Action

Today I was learning how to group a character then animate it.

I enjoyed figering out what my character would find and do.

I found it challenging to make my character go into the pool without  going under the pool so I could se it.

My digital learning object shows that I can animate a character and make a slide show with it.

Next time I would change where my character moved and what it found.
