More similes

Today for writing I did more similes. What is a simile you ask well a simile compares two things using the words 'like' or 'as'.  In my presentation you will see what a simile is Some other examples of a simile. For example she is as quiet as a mouse or he is as blind as a bat, these are all examples of what a simile looks like. I have tried my best and I also had a lot of fun creating this on my own.

Read Theory

This morning we did Read theory. Read theory is a website that helps you on your reading. On Read theory you will have to read through a story, when you have finished reading you will have to fill out questions relating to the story you just read. Some of the questions maybe something like what Luna's favourite colour or where was Sam hiding. Read theory is a good place you can go and read in your own time.

3D Graphics

This morning at tech we were drawing 3D shapes. We had to draw different types of shapes like cubes, crating, cuboid
and steps. To do our shape we had to use a grid paper called isometric grid paper. After we got the hang of doing 3D shapes we then had to learn the different kinds of shading. Mrs Ferguson taught us how to shape lightly and very dark. We had to challenge our self to shade in a cube with a normal pencil and a colouring pencil. The last task was to make a shadow for our cube we have created. The new word we learnt today were Shading, shadows, grid paper and 3D paper. Today was fun and I cant wait for next week.

Dance!

 

During the morning and middle block we did dance. For dance Mrs Anderson said we had to create our own warm up routine. My partner was Sky, we watched warm up videos to get some inspiration. Making up the moves was easy but doing the them was really tricky. Warming up and stretching before you have a sports event it can help you move a lot easier. But if you warm up and stretch to much you will lose some of your strength to do something. This was a very fun task to complete and cant wait till next week.

Making connections

 About a week ago Mishaan, Magenta and I  did something called making connections. The story we read was when the wind blows. First we had to do text to text then we did text to world and the last one we had to do was text to text. Here is what we came up with.

Maths! Pizzas and things

 

Today I was working on my maths DLO. In this DLO you will see how I solved the answers and which strategies I used to find out what the answers were. These are two different  math problems that include halving and addition. This was a very interesting DLO to complete but it was still really fun to do.

Reduce, Reuse Recycle!

Yesterday afternoon Sky, Josh, Harlem, Zane and I worked on our Reduce, Reuse and Recycle DLO. We had to write about how New Zealanders throw away 3.6 million tonnes of rubbish every year. How did this make me feel? Well I have mixed emotions towards what I have read in. My question to you is what do you think we could do to make a change in how we use our rubbish?
