This morning we had a lesson with Ms Li and we learned how to greet one another and count to 10 in Mandarin. We also went to google translate and translated our name into Chinese. This is my name in Chinese...

My writing competition entry!

Nuckelavee

The Nuckelavee was a creature of abject terror, and spoken of with bated breath until comparatively recent times. Although many folklore creatures had a binary nature, the Nuckelavee was a creature of pure evil. It is a human man attached to a skeleton horse of hell. According to the old Legends, who lived in constant fear of the Nuckelavee, only the power of the Mither o' the Sea kept the beast away! The Legends say that this mythological creature used to be a kind hearted man with his horse. Then one day he went to war and they both died leaving trailed blood on the mountain of Justice. Did you know that the nuckelavee has no skin. Black blood is visible through his veins! The Nuckelavee name is also known as the devil of the sea.





But don’t let the nuckelavee scare you tonight it is only a made up creature.

My Animal Adaption Poster

This is my poster about my creative bird. Its name is Camo-green and it likes to eat invertebrates like ants and beetles using their pointy beak. It has long legs to run away from predators. This is my bird.

School cross

In room 6 we have been painting our crosses for the fence. We first had to draft our design on a piece of paper 3 or 4 times. Then we did our final copy with colors. Here is how it turned out...

Science Experiment on beaks

Pointed beak, flat beak and pelican beak are all the types of beaks we used for this discovery.But these things are also known as forceps, tongs and cups. First we learnt about the meanings of the words we need to know like, aim. Aim means trying to achieve something in the experiment we were trying to see what shape beak is the best for picking up food. And we learnt what will we change( the equipment), What we will measure ( the amount of food) and how we will keep it a fair test. The way we can make it a fair test by having a nice steady surface, by having the same person doing each type of food also by having the same amount of time of 30 seconds. We had an amazing time experimenting with rice, peppercorns, gummy worms and skittles and after we got to eat Lollies.

 

Mini BB Fair

On the 30th of August the school councilors prepared a mini BB ( Books and Baking ) to raise money for the power box outside our school. We raised $754 from all that hard work.

M and M challenge.

Last Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday we did the M&M challenge. The class got into groups with one leader in each group. Miss Down gave us some M&M’s and we had to count how many we had and next figured how much M&M’s our group had. After we found out how many M&M’s we all had many people realized that some people had a very small amount of M&M’s while others had about 50. The next thing we did was counting how much of red we had then blue then yellow until we had finished all the colors we had. When we did everything Miss Down told us to share all the M&M’s equally with our group and everyone in the class got 41 M&M’s each! We have put our information on a poster.
