filmaking

Film making On Friday we made a video about me and Pala fighting. Jaspa was the recorder, and Crez did nothing. Jaspa also was the editor. It was very fun, especially the part were me and Pala were fighting. And when crez was screaming because pala was going to beat him up. Our video was supposed to be a karate kid but then pala took it a bit overboard and started beating us up.

WALT: to make a fim in a group and edit it using we video

reflection: this was a very fun activity I think every one in my group thought it was fun. In my group there was me Pala,Jaspa and Crez. next time I think me and my group need to work better together and make a more interesting film.

the human brain.

Walt Think critically about a range of texts by summarising and evaluating new information. reflection: so the last two weeks Lopala,Asher and I made a slide on what we have been learning. such as the human brain, the solar system and sculpting things in sculptgl such as making a human brain and we made our solar system on that platform. we have a lot of writing on our slide but I learnt a bunch of new stuff such as there are two parts of the brain the left and the right.

squaring whole numbers

WALT squaring whole numbers reflection this was a very quick activity but don't get me wrong it was very fun.

Bouncy egg

Walt make connections between the human skeletal system and our science experiment.

 

materials: class or jar 

egg 

white vinegar

water 

instructions: 

1.place the egg in the jar and add white vinegar until it is completely submerged.

2.Seal the top of the jar

3. Leave the egg in the vinegar for for days 

4.Remove the egg from the jar and rinse the jar out.

5.Drop it and see if it bounces

reflection: I enjoyed seeing the changes in the egg. next time I think we should only put it in for three days. And change the vinegar after two days.

Team building

WALT show our school values during team building.
This morning in team building me and my group were showing school values like respect because we were not eating the resources. And also showing teamwork by putting all our ideas together to make one good marshmallow catapult. Even though it was pretty tempting  not to eat the marshmallows I think it turned out pretty good.

team building

WALT show our school values during team building.

This morning we tried to make 3d shapes with toothpicks and marshmallows while also showing the school values. In this activity my group and I showed some school values like me and my group were showing respect by listening to the instructions and getting a descent 3d shape.My group also showed responsibility by all participating and all making there own design   then who ever design was the best we showed and in this case Palas. this team building activity was very hard because the shapes keep falling over.  

measurement

WALT: find the perimeter of irregular shapes.
reflection today was fun because it was lots of maths. I was puzzled on how the first time I counted it was 60 then the next time it was 59 otherwise it was interesting. I would not have finished as fast as I did if it wasn't for josh he is a savoir. next time I should pay more attention to what I am doin,and not talk as much.

measurement

Walt find the perimeter and area of regular and irregular shape. This was really fun to do and I learnt a lot. About measurement especially the irregular shapes thank god I had josh to help me.

kia tika

Walt share what respect looks like at kangaroa school.

why is kia tika important well it is important because kids need to know what is right and what  is wrong.and people need to be treated the same way I was proud of myself for the work that I have produced. and I think next time I can pick a less distracting partner.

digestive system

Walt think critically about texts and respond accordingly.

I surprised myself when I read both texts by myself. I found some of the big words hard so I went and got help from miss. this week I really tried to stay on task and be with my friends.but they distracted me to much so I had to move away. But when I did I got my work completed.
