Words or Numbers?

Hi!
This week for my home work blog I chose
to do the number word search activity.
I was confused what that was at the start
but then I searched it and found out what it is.
For those that don't know, it is a word search
but instead of looking for words you look for numbers.
Here is what we have to do...


That's what we had to do.
So I took that and here is what I made...


That's about as big as I can make the picture.
Comment how I could fix this to make it
better and how many of the words you found.
Once I finished I forgot where most of the words are.
This was really fun to make but I need you to test it.
Until next time...
Bye!

The End...

Hi!
This week I have finished my novel study.
As part of it I have to post my finished work on my blog.
For novel study I chose the book...
Act of Faith.
It is a story about a girl in the 1640s.
You go with her through a challenging
time until she is safe again.
I found this book really interesting
since I don't usually read books like it.
At first glance I thought it would be a
diary but when you look inside it isn't.
I tried my hardest to make the second part as
creative as possible but it was hard thinking of different things.
So here is the slide...


That was all the work.
It is a very long slide.
But I think I achieved the work that the teachers set for me.
I didn't find this work really hard after the first couple of chapters.
Feel free to comment if you have done a novel study or if you are doing one.
This isn't my favourite book but it still is a good book.

My favourite part would of been the letter at the 
start of the book that talks one on one to the reader.

It makes you want to see what the story is about.
Until next time...
Bye!

STAMPEDE!!!

Hi!
As you know last week on Friday it was pet day.
After we had our flower arrangements done we look at the 
hobby horse races and a small show that Bridget performed with her horse in.
Then we did lots of fun games in our house groups.
But as soon as the last break began, the stampede came.
Animals were flooding through the gates.
Leaving people frozen from how cute they are.
But soon after the kids were in control.
My dog Maggie was ready for the obstacle 
course and was excited to show off her sitting.
The obstacle course started with your dog 
having to sit, then go over a ramp, then over a log, 
then over another ramp, round the barrel then do it again.
Maggie could only manage the sitting and barrel part.
But she did it in style.
Here are some photos of Maggie before her turn...


Those were the photos.
I didn't have many.
But there is at least one good photo of Maggie.
After she did her tricks we left to see the sand saucers.
It turns out the Nikita and I got SECOND!!!

I had left Jedi in charge of the dog but when I 
came back, Maggie was taking Jedi for a walk.

After that it was home time for everyone.

Feel free to comment what you think about my blog 
and don't forget to comment if you see the thief.

Until next time...

The jungle...

Hi!
Today is...
PET DAY!!!
So far this morning all we have done is make
our sand saucers or vegetable sculptures.
I decided to do a sand saucer with Nikita.
Together we worked together and made our creation: The Jungle.
I didn't originally plan to do it with Nikita but I did do it with her.
But yesterday we made a slide of our inspiration.
Here is my slide that I made...



We used my flowers and Nikitas jungle items and together we made our final product...


We had lots of fun making it and soon we will be taking it to be judged.

Feel free to comment your opinion about our sand saucer 
or what you would do for a sand saucer or vegetable sculpture.


This was so much fun to make and the whole class 
was excited to make their own things this morning.

Wish us luck.
Until next time...
Bye!

Isabella VS Fra clement

Hi!

This week for my blog I chose to share some of my 
Novel study work that I am in the middle of doing.

I am in the middle of doing the main Protagonist and the main Antagonist.
Protagonist: Hero/good character.
Antagonist: Villain/bad character.
Now you know what I am doing and what I'm in the middle of.
Here is my work...


Clearly Isabella is the good character.

I have made the pictures but I 
don't know what to use to finish it.

Isabella took a long time to make.

Even though it may not look like it 
there is lots of detail in her dress and face.


Isabella is the main character and even though
 according to the law in the 1640s
 Isabella is bad and Fra clement is 
good, everyone knows that Isabella
 is actually the good character.


Feel free to comment on how this work could 
be improved so I can fix it 
before the deadline next week.

Until next time...
Bye!

What way do we go?

Hi!
This term for Te reo we have been working on directions.
Today we had to blog what we have learnt and our main 4 words.
I decided to do something different and 
instead of a plain slide explaining, I chose a pick a path.
All you have to do is go onto slide two and pick one of the three 
options and it will take you to either a correct 
slide or a go back to the start slide.
If it says go back to the start click that, 
but if it says next question click that.
This is a slide pick a path so you have to follow 
the links to have the best experience of this game.
Here is the game...


That was the game.
I hope you had fun playing it.
I had fun making it.

Comment how many times it took you to 
get them all correct and get to the last slide.

Have you made a pick a path before?
To learn these we made our own treasure maps and
went around telling people the directions in maori
then we would try to understand theirs. 
This was interesting to learn.
Now that you have played the game, here are the directions...


I hope you didn't cheat.
Until next time...
Bye!

The Future...

Hi!
Last week: (Week 5) Was so busy that I didn't
have time to do my home learning blog.
But now here it is, Just a bit late on the weekend.
I chose to do this activity...


So I started thinking of the rooms when I
came across a slide Grace and I have made before.
I decided that the slide was already what
I would want my future house to be.
Since it was Grace and I that designed it a
while ago all I had to do was label it.
Here it it...


That was what we want our house to look like.
If you also see this on Graces blog that is why.

Feel free to comment what you think and 
what you would like your house to look like.

Would your house be a mansion or a tiny house?
It could be anything!
Until next time...
Bye!

YMS takes over the town!!!!!

Hi!
This week is a very short week.
That is because today we had the YMS trip to town,
tomorrow we have a class trip to the
A&P show then on Friday there is no school.
So firstly we arrived at school as normal doing what we would usually do in the morning.
Then we jumped on the bus to go to town.
I sat down with Grace and the bus began the journey. 
Before we knew it we were at the town hall sitting in our seats.
The Orchestra played lots of songs and even taught us how to conduct the orchestra.
I think that the conductor looked a bit like Harry Potter
as an adult and that was fitting since later they
played a Harry Potter themed music piece.
We learnt about instruments then we were done.

We all walked down to the Margaret Mahy Playground and ate our lunch.
We ran into the playground and played on everything.
There was also another school so the playground was full.
Then it was time to board the bus and go home.
Altogether it was 4 buses for the whole school.
We all had lots of fun and we are happy with our day.
That was a lot of talking so now I will show you some photos...


That was the pictures that we had.
I hope I explained it all enough.

Comment on how I could make this better, whether it is 
less words or more detail I will try to fix it for next week's blog.

Lots of schools went to the orchestra so the town hall was completely full.
Was your class or school there?
Until next time...
Bye!

A web of a story...

Hi!

This week for another blog I chose to 
show my novel studies story web.


I think it looks good and matches the rest 
of my theme colors and how I have laid it out.

I think it matches the example story web with the titles.
Here is the example story web...


For those that don't know, a story web is sort of
like a poster with the title and author in the
middle and lots of information around it.
So you can find out what the story's themes are
or how many important characters there are.
This story web didn't take super long but it still
looks good and I think I have a good
amount of information in each category.
Apart from point of view since there was only
one view which was the main character Isabella.
The story is called Act of Faith by Kelly Gardiner.
Here is my story web...


That was my story web.
I hope you liked it.

I posted it for feedback so please comment 
how I could improve this part of my work.


It could be that I change the 
decoration or add more information.

Have your read Act of Faith?
Until next time...
Bye!

A.... GHOST!!!!!

Hi!
This term we have chosen a new book.
It is called Ghost...


That's the front cover of the book.

So far I am really enjoying the book so I decided to show 
you part of the work that we have been doing for the book.

Firstly there is my first impressions...


Then the first lot of questions about the start of the book.

I had to go back and answer some of these 
questions later on since we haven't read enough.



I hope that gives you a bit of a better idea about the book.
Here is one of the fun activities that we did...


Lastly I will show some of the new words we had to do work for...


We have only had three sessions so far so I don't have much to show.
This was just the first session and second session of work.
I hope you enjoyed seeing my work.

Feel free to comment on how I could improve my 
future ghost work that I will do next Monday.

Thank you for reading my blog.

Athletics Day!

Hi!
This Wednesday was...
ATHLETICS DAY!!!!
I couldn't do High jump or Sprints that 
I explained in the slide but I did the rest.
I found shot put the most challenging since 
we had to throw 7 meters to go to zones.
My favourite must of been long jump but 
I landed weird and I fell back for one of the jumps.
I have lots more to say in the slide.
We didn't have many photos so I just used what we had.
So here it is...


That was the slide.
I hope you liked it.
Feel free to comment what you
think about our athletics day.
Have you had athletics day?
If yes what was your favourite?
Until next time...
Bye!
