Story Telling

During our Te Tuhi workshop 'Creative Stories' we learnt about the different ways a story can be told.we explored our story 'The Lorax through role play and then created our own poster.

I found it hard to cut the drawings out.

I found it easy to draw on the paper .

Next time I need to work on drawing much more better.

Volume Challenge

For maths week, we have been learning about measurement.Yesterday we talked about volume.We learnt that to work out the volume of a shape you use length x width x height. Out challenge was to work in pairs and use the unlink cubes to make as many different creations as we could, with a volume of 8.

I found it easy to add the length ,width and height.

I found it hard to make different creations in the blocks.

Next time I need to work on making more creations.

Blended Giraffe

I had to practice using different line and blending techniques to create a realistic looking giraffe. I found it easy to follow the teachers instructions to create the giraffe shape. It was difficult to keep all the parts in perspective. Next time I will try harder to use blending to show dark and light.

Number Detective

Morris the Mankiest Monster

The Daintree Forest

For reading I was to identify what the author wanted me to feel, think or see.

We read a book that was called the Daintree Forest and after that we had to convince people to agree with us that to save the Daintree Forest.  We made a kind of poster to convince people in Australia to stop the people who are cutting down the trees and making hotels and carnivals.

I felt it was hard to upload the relevant pictures to show our ideas.

Next time we could add more facts to help show our opinion.
