Weekly Reflection: NINTENDO SWITCH TRAILER IS OUT!

For nearly a year and a half, people have been waiting for the Nintendo switch, first known as Nintendo NX, to be revealed... AND THE TRAILER IS FINALLY OUT! Look below to see it.

This is probably the first game console that I have ever wanted to buy, because I wanted to actually wait for it. Nintendo has hinted it to come out March 2017, and I am starting to save up some money for it! The price is foreseen to be around $600.

TOPIC
For topic, our class is now supposed to be making anything to do with the Titanic. Cameron, Nikalai and I have decided to create a small presentation and a comedy video based on the movie. I am really excited!!!

NUMERACY
We did lots of mathsbuddy. We scratched our pencils onto pieces of numbered paper (basic facts). And we did the last maths tests.

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 1-2 Reflection

TOPIC

Our topic for this term is money. We have started using banqer.co, which is a site for kids to find out how money works. The different stuff in the site includes: Real estate, tax, income, property insurance and much more. We then had to create a slide about where our taxes went. Here it is.



Numeracy
Now for numeracy, in the first week my group learnt about finding the volume of cubey shapes. Here is the slide I made explaining how to do this.


Literacy
For writing we started writing poems. There is no need to explain, just read these beautiful poems I wrote.

My Colour Poems

Red

by Kyle

Red looks like your victim’s fresh blood strewn across the floor

Red sounds like the screams of the people trying to escape

Red smells like the flaming, sinking ship beneath you

Red tastes like apple juice

Red feels like the warm glow on your skin, reflecting the humongous city that was put to an inferno.

Brown

by Kyle

Brown looks like my old dog Skippy’s handsomely soft fur.

Brown sounds like the little kids singing and dancing in the muddy dirt.

Brown smells like the aroma of mud wafting off my little chickens.

Brown tastes like the sweet, sweet treat of chocolate that can make one’s day.

Brown feels like the muddy ground.

Cinquains

Stick

Brown, sticky

Drops on ground

Boring, doesn’t feel anything

Twig

Military

Strong, young

Guns shooting people

Lots of nervous people

Army

Gum

Weird, sticky

Leaking from gumtrees

Makes you feel strange

Adhesive

Thank you for looking at this reflection!

Where does your tax go?

Nutrition in cereal

  Today a nutritionist came to school, and taught us how to read labels. We made a graph of which cereal was the best one. (Look down to see)

  We found out that the best cereal was Light and tasty, and the worst was coco snaps. Also, the nutritionist said that Light and tasty and the ones that had 4 ~ 5 ticks could be eaten every morning, but coco snaps and the ones with 1 ~ 2 ticks could only be eaten only about once a week.
