QUICK WRITE πŸ’» - TOMATO πŸ…
TOMATO πŸ… - LINK -
What am I? I started off as a lonely seed, over time my lonely seed develops and grows into a beautiful green stem. To grow I need a lot of rain as it gives me the strength to increase. As this stem slowly grows I flourish as well! While I flourish I start of very ripe green colour as If I am not cooked well or still need time. At this time I am feeling hard and I look very small. Many time goes past, I have finally developed! I now look bright red with a green stem showing my connection to my seed.

TASK DESCRIPTION: As a warm up task for our writing, Miss Tapuke decided to hold a short Quick Write comp! A Quick Write comp is where Miss Tapuke gives us a topic and a time limit to write about that specific topic. In this case, we had five minutes to write and our topic was to describe a vegetable or fruit without naming it. After our comp we shared our writing with each other and try to guess what vegetable or fruit we are describing.

What is science? πŸ§ͺ - Note Taking πŸ“

WALT:  identify key information in a text
Task Description: Just to keep some of you people a fresh reminder, our theme for this term (term 3) is 'Something in the water'. This term we are studying the living things and in team 5 we are tackling the question How are all living organisims connected? Our reading task is called What is science? We are learning to take notes when reading a trans script. We have to use the proccess of studying the paragrah, making a heading and picking out the 'trigger words'. Here is my note taking on the video/transcript of What is science? I found this very easy the more paragraphs I did. I hope you are satisfied with this blog post, and please remember to leave some feedback!

Measurement Reminiscence πŸ“➗

WALT:  calculate area and perimeter
Task Description: This week for maths we are working on measurements. Touching on this topic is very interesting. I learnt a lot of maths during this session. In one of our slides we had to convert the fractions between decimals and percentages. We also did the area and perimeter of rectangles, as well as measurements. Enjoy!

Tree of Life 🌴

Tree Of Life πŸŒ΄ - Charles Darwin


Part of our learning theme for this term is about the Tree Of Life. The tree of life was created by Charles Darwin who researched many things. In 1835, Charles Darwin discovered that everything living is connected. As animals grow they change over time so they can survive. Some of these animals came from the bottom of the ocean and soon came out of the water and adapted to the world around them. Our task was to put all the missing parts in the Tree Of Life in order and then glue them on.

✈️TRAVELLING AROUND THE WORLD🌎


Task Description: This term we have learnt a whole lot of things! Part of our learning is making DLO's where we travel around different continents and/or countries around the world. First, we had to draw a world map on Hyperstudio as a guide. We then choose three or more different landmarks in countries. The next step to our DLO is to go to Scratch (a online website where you can code) and code our drawings to make it look like we are travelling the world πŸŒŽ

This is my finishing animation. All you need to do is press the green flag and let me do the talking! Once it's finish or if you want to stop it press the red button. I really enjoyed making this DLO and I have learnt many, many things while doing this - Continents, Coding and Drawing. I hope you enjoy this DLO.
