Weekly reflection - Week 10!!

MATHS

This week Harry and I have worked on a mall for about two days, and still haven't passed the 2 million dollar budget. To see our mall, click HERE (There are links to click on in the project!). Mr Woo also showed us a Top 10 biggest malls video before doing this project, and to see that video click HERE.

BANQER

On Banqer this week, I bought a house named 88 Rhodes Street. Weeell, technically the bank still owns it. But through persistence and failure, I will succeed and make this house mine. But right now I only have 1000 dollars. At least my house gives me an extra 1500 a week!!

Weekly Reflection - Week 9

Good morning, residence of planet Earth.
And welcome to... Week 9 reflection!
So today, there is actually a family fiesta, where people come to school after school,  have a bit of a party, and eat food.
NOW FOR THE REFLECTION!

Literacy

For literacy this week, Mr Wood told us to write a post-apocalyptic story. Here is my story plot.

ZERO Draft

FIRST PERSON VIEW

Exposition

Outside, raining lightly, sneaking around with 2 people (Casey-somebody, Matthew-from school), on the lookout for Skywatchers and Landroamers. Talk about trying to take down The robot overlord, Felix Kjellberg. Sky is orange, sun is setting. We are all wearing the normal clothes from when this started, but painted dark green for camo. We each have a walkie talkie watch, and a spare battery.

Inciting Incident (event that causes conflict)

We move slowly around a fallen Landroamer. Its one hypnotic eye is moving around, trying to find motion.

Rising Action

It hears our footsteps, and looks right at us. A warning signal wavers through its rusty sound outputs. The Skywatchers come after us, we run as fast as we can and dodge the exploding laser beams. We hide in the city for a few weeks, waiting for Felix to show himself. We stock up on weapons, and slowly eat the dehydrated potatoes.

Climax

Felix comes. We have a sneaky fight, but Omar gets shocked by Felix’s charge. I stab Felix straight in the forehead. He keels over… and gets up again. He is a robot. I stab him in multiple places as Matthew shoots a laser beam from a zapper we stole from the Landroamer before it alarmed the Skywatchers.

Falling action

Felix is finally dead, but of course there are more bots in this intelligence circle. We find people who have been chipped, but haven’t passed the point of no return. We unchip as many people as we can.

Resolution

We have nearly rescued all the people in this small city, and so many of them have already made weapons with the tech from the Skywatchers and Landroamers.

Art...?

For art this week, we made our learning maps. Here is a link to my video explaining my learning map.

I have also baked a few cupcakes for Family Fiesta, and they are just normal flavoured with green icing.

And that's about all I can think of.

BUH-BYE!

Weekly Reflection!!!

MATHS:

I did a lot of revision, since tests are coming up. By revision I mean completing tasks on MathsBuddy.

WRITING:

For writing I had to write a few explanations. I (and the rest of my class) wrote one explanation on frogs, and started one on sleep. Below is the explanation of frogs.

(nearly) All about frogs

OR The lifecycle of a frog

A frog is a tailless amphibian with a short squat body, moist smooth skin, and very long hind legs for leaping. They are green and sometimes brown, and live in swamps and/or ponds to lay their eggs. Some frogs may be be poisonous enough to kill, while others are as murderous as small stones. So for this reason DO NOT attempt to touch a frog you don’t know about.

(Above: A poisonous dart frog, or Dendrobatidae)

The lifecycle of a frog is a very strange process. First, two adult frogs (male and female) have to mate, then the female will have to lay her eggs in a pond. The eggs sometimes would merge together to become embryos, and others may not even get past that stage. The embryos will then sit there for six to twenty-one days to hatch. The embryos start to look more and more like tadpoles, with poorly developed gills, tails and mouths. After hatching, a small tailed black spot, or a tadpole, will come out and start clinging to a water-plant, as to not getting washed away and killed.

After a while of being out of its embryo, the tadpole would get some external gills to breathe underwater with. Its tail would also get longer and longer, while it would develop hindlegs. After this stage it would look a little bit more like a frog, just without front legs.

About four or five days after that stage, the tadpole would start to live of food from its tail, slowly making it disappear. A couple days later the tadpole would have very small front legs. Then the front legs would grow, the tail would become shorter and shorter… and behold! A young frog would appear!

Now, the tadpole had become a frog. It would go on with its life, eating flies, jumping about, maybe even accidently eat a tadpole. But then two frogs would find each other, mate, and start the whole lifecycle all over again! Then the frogs will die. Yes, sadly all life must come to an end.

As you learned in the explanation above, a frog’s life cycle is a quite interesting one. You also learned about what a frog was, where they live, and how they lived. Now go outside and see if you can find one!

READING:

We actually started a new class novel last week, called 'The Boy in Striped Pyjamas'. It is turning out to be quite a good book, and I hope that there is a good ending.

OTHER:

Also this week, I have completed a Main Star. It was to make a Christmas treat, then give some to your classmates, friends and/or teacher. I made some Lego gummies. The blog post for this is under this reflection post.

Week 2 reflection

Reading

This week we have been reading a class novel called 'See ya, Simon'.

I think it's pretty interesting.

It is about a boy who has Muscular Dystrophy, and needs a wheelchair.

It is told from his friend Nathan's point of view.

Technology

This term for technology, my group will be doing cooking.

In cooking we have teams of four. This week my team consisted of Me, Jimmy, Dillon and Callan.

We made fruit salad.

It was very yummy.

But I couldn't finish it since I was too full.

Topic

This term our topic for Topic ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) was the Olympics. Here are some activities I have done.

Here is an interactive piece of candy corn to make you happy.

Week 7 Reflection

Literacy|Reading

This week for reading, we started reading 'Kensuke's Kingdom' by Michael Morpurgo.

After reading each chapter, we had to do an activity. One of them was to create your own book cover for the book. To see my original blog post for the book cover, click HERE. To see it now, look right beneath this.

Literacy|Writing

For writing this week, we wrote a Haiku poem. Haiku poems are quite easy, but the main points are: the first line has five syllables, the second line has seven syllables and the third has five syllables.

Now for this poem we needed to brainstorm, and Miss Panther showed us bubbl.us.

It is a website where you make what are called mind maps. Here is one of mine!







Then we had to write a Haiku, of course. Here are my ones!

Frogs

Frogs swim through water

Frogs smell a lot like madness

Frogs eating people

Nature

Nature is a frog

Nature is cute birds chirping

Nature is your heart

Cellphone

Phones can contact friends

Phones can contact family

Cell Phones can do lots.

Topic

For topic this week, Mackenzie and I have done a lot of work on our presentation. Here is what it looks like!

Week 3 Reflection

The following will be Kyle's week 3 refection.

New Stop-motion
I made a new stopmotion. Remember in the last stop-motion where the pink blob comes and takes the remote away? Well, this is the prequel.

The teachers have also shared with us another kind of stop-motion app. But in my opinion this one is quite boring compared to picpac. But it was fun to use, though. Here are the vids I made.

Numeracy

For numeracy this week, the Freaky Fractions (my group) learnt how to add and subtract decimal numbers. Here is a DLO explaining how to do this.

AND FINALLY, WRITING:

For writing, this very second I writing ONE WORD! See my work below.



Thanks for reading my fabulous work, and have a nice day!
