D.L.O( digital learning object) about Emperor penguins

 Hey Readers! 

This week in J.K rowling we have been learning about Emperor penguins first we read a story called fantastic penguins. The story talked about what temputures penguins like, parts of a penguin, a penguins life cycle, etc. After we read the story the teacher gave us a comprehenson sheet with a story included. Then we started a D.L.O about emperor penguins we also got to choose what we wanted it to be on. Today I just added another slide and read the slides to make sure it all made sence. Doing the comprehenson sheet was easy and fun because I made sure I read it properly. The D.L.O was kind of tricky because I didn't really know what to put in it. Have you ever made a D.L.O? 

D.L.O ( Digital learning object) about Sharks

 Hello Readers! 
This week in reading J.k Rowling has been learning about sharks, we first read a story about sharks, it had lots of facts and infomation about them. Once we finished reading the story we had to fill out  a comprehension sheet of two pages and read another text. For the last two days we have had to do a D.L.O about Sharks. In the D.L.O it needed to have alot of detail and infomation about Sharks so it can teach others about them. What I found challenging was doing the comprehenson sheet because I couldn't find some of the answers. The D.L.O was easy to do because I learn't alot. Have you done a D.L.O before. 

D.L.O about a possum

 Hello my amazing readers!

This week in Miss McLeods group Jk rowling we have been learning about possums. We first read a story called the possum problem. In the story it talked about why people are killing possums and what they're using their fur for. I found out that there using their fur for clothing and selling it for money. Today we read a story on our chromebooks called designed for good. After I finished reading the story I needed to do a D.L.O ( digital learning object) about possums. It wasn't that challenging reading the story, but doing the D.L.O was. Have you done a D.L.O before?

Ocean Zones

 Hey Readers!

Last week in Miss McLeods reading group my group Jk rowling learnt about the ocean zones. The first thing we did was read a story about the ocean zones then we  watched a video about the ocean zones and what animals live in the zones. After we finished watching the video we had to do what animals live in what area of water level. Sunlight, midnight, twilight, the abyss, and the trench are the zones of the ocean.  Once we finished watching the video we had to make a graph about the ocean zones and it what area of the ocean certain animals live for e.g penguins live at the 200 meters below the ocean. Then we were surrpost to do a D.L.O ( digital learning object) about the ocean zones but I didn't have enough time to do that. Making the graph was easy, finding out what zone the animals live in because we had to find it.  Have you learn't about ocean zones? 

Lemon Sugar Scrub

 Kia Ora Readers!

Yesturday in Miss McLeod's reading group Jk rowling my group were making lemon hand scrub. The first thing we did was we read with Miss Cornish ( student teacher!)  the story was called up the pipe. The story was about these children who did an experiment about what type of home supplies  have chemicals in them or not. After we read the text we planned the steps of making the lemon scrub. We added the ingredients and steps of making the mixture. Once we got into the wet space we got into groups of four or three. The people in my group were, An, Sophie, Jed and me.  Then we got started I first added 1 cup of vegetable into the mixture. After that I squezed some lemons with Sophie, into a bowl. Once we finished adding everything into the mixture, we started mixing it all together, we all took turns until it was perfect. Then my group got to try the lemon hand scrub, we first washed our hands next we used the hand scrub. The scrub felt very ticklish but also very relaxing on my hands when in the moment. After we washed our hands we all added some lemon hand scrub into our containers we brought.  

Here is the ingredients:

2 or 3 lemons 

2 cups of sugar

1 cup of vegetable oil 

Mix everything together and if you want you may zest a lemon to change the texture a bit. 

What I found challenging was making sure I didn't make a mess, what I found easy was mixing the mixture together. 

Vegetable poem

 Hey Readers!

Last week in Miss McLeod's writing group we got to write a vegetable or flower poem to get entered into the flower festival. The first thing we did was  look at some examples of poems, and we also got to comment on something we realised about the poems. Then we planned what we were going to use in our poem. For the first poem I chosse to do it about a cucumber, but the thing is  I could only submit one. Planing about the vegetable was challenging at first but once I got help from Miss Cornish ( Student Teacher) I got the hang of it. It took me awhile to figure out what type of poem I wanted to do for the cucumber. In the end I chosse to submit my what am I poem because that's what most people enjoyed. Editing the poems were easy, picking which poem I wanted was tricky because they were both really amazing, 

Are you submiting a poem for the flower festival

Have you done a Vegetable poem before? 

Here is my poem.. Don't look at what the vegetable is until you read the poem. 

Calender/dot art

 Hey Readers!

During this term we have been foucusing on calender. We first got to pick two choices of our art, the options were falling down a tunnel, dot art, and lastly kandinsky. I picked dot art and falling down a tunnel. The group I got into was dot art with Miss McLeod. For the first week of dot art we used cotton buds to color in a dot art coloring page. We had to pick four colors I used teal peach and two other colors which I forgot what they were. The next week we made our draft some of us got to use compass ( not the north south east west one by the way).  I struggeled using it so I used a cup after a while of messing up. After we finished doing our draft some people got to test out doing the dots on our drafts. Once we finished that we started our real verson we needed to be really carefull because if we rubbed it out it would leave marks. Anyways I think this blurb is a bit big now so here is the end product.

Gaming Addiction slide

 Hey Readers!
During these two weeks in Miss McLeod's reading group we have been foucsing on debate groups. To be able to debate we picked a group, I personaly picked gaming addiction. First we read two stories about gaming addiction then we made a google slide about what we have been learning about. Also some research to back it up.  We had to get into buddies my buddy was Cameron. What was hard was researching because sometimes you don't really know if whats put online is true. Writing my own opinion was quite easy because I already had a idea in my head. 

Describe a moment in time

Hey Readers!

For the past few weeks in Miss McLeod's we have been doing describe a moment in time to get ready for our e-asttle test at the end of this term.  First Miss McLeod modelded the the introduction then I made a copy of a document that we used for our writing. After that I started my introduction which included the setting, sencers etc. The following week we started our first and secound paragraph, and for each paragraph it needed to be based of one sencer for each one.  Now today we started our concluson to end our story then I self checked, buddie check, then finally showed it to Mrs Harris.  What I found hard was doing my concluson because I wasn't really sure what to put in it. What I found easy was doing my introduction because I got to describe the setting etc. Mrs Harris said I could blog it so here is the result!

Have you ever done describe a moment in time writing before? Comment bellow

Metaphors with Miss Hodgson

 Kia Ora readers!

Today with Miss Hodgson/ Miss H for Miss McLeod's writing we have been doing a Metaphor mini lesson. First we looked at the mini lesson slide, that explained what metaphors are. In the mini lesson it also had some pictures that we used to make some sentences.  After that I made a copy of the document  Miss McLeod gave us to do. Not using as or like was very tricky because I use those words quite alot in my writing. Thinking of sentences was easy but it took me a while to get it right.

Do you know what Metaphors are? If you do comment down bellow an example.

Here is the ending result.

Wonder Character

Kia Ora Readers!
During this term in Miss McLeods reading group we have been reading a story called Wonder. Miss McLeod found an website were you can make a character that is sort of like the bookcover except you can design your own. After I finished doing my reading activity I went onto the website and started creating mine. If you want to make your own character here is the link to the website: Wonder. The first step I did was pick my face shape then I choose my eye and ears. After that I picked my hair I choose some long braids, also some accersories. Then I picked a precept a precept is sort of like a queot. Doing precept was tricky because it took me a long time to choose the right one. Doing my face was really fun because I got to design it my self. My preset means when your talent doesn't work just try your best put your effort into it.

For or Agianst activity

Hey Readers!
Yesturday in Miss McLeods reading we did an activity about wearing school uniform and not and for and agianst. First I made a copy of the google doc, then I started doing the work. After that I thought about some reasons for the for and agianst bits. At first it was a bit tricky but I got it in the end. What was challenging was doing the agianst reasons, the for half was quite easy. Have you ever done an for or agianst activity?

Cats are better pets than dogs!

Hey Readers!

In  the past weeks  in Miss McLeods litreacy  we have been doing persuasive and learning about opinons, first we choose our option of what we wanted to use to persuade. Next Miss Mcleod showed us an example of a persusave text, then we went to do our plan that had imfomation about a topic. The following week we started our introduction we looked at the modelling slides and Miss McLeod showed us an example. After that we started doing the introduction I started mine with a rhetorical question which is a question that doesn't need an answer. Then the next week we did our two paragphs by using our plans. A few weeks later we had to finish our writing and some of us did our concluson. 

Doing my concluson was challenging because I was stuck but in the end I understood it. The three paragphs were very easy to do because I could use my own opinon plus some research to back up my opinon. Have you ever done any persusave texts? Have you learn't about opinons before?

D.L.O of Jean Battern!!!

Salam ( Hello) Readers!!
Today in Reading with Miss McLeod, J.K Rowling had to do a D.L.O ,D.L.O stands for Digital Learning object. First I had to finish my work from Monday. Once I finished it I had to show Miss McLeod and start doing the D.L.O. First of all I made a google drawing, then I went onto the site and looked at some of the text there were and researched. Then I colored the background and added the text. The first couple of them were quite tricky but then I got the hang of it.

Adding all of the text and finishing touches were really easy because I can just fix it up and write. Reaserching was tricky because when I was reaserching it didn't really come up with what I wanted and then I had to change it. I found doing this was something new to me but in the end it was really fun! Have you ever done a D.L.O/ Digital Learning object?
