Narrative writing ( Mega City )

 Hi, I am Harry. I am a dog. I stay with my owner Jack. Jack wanted to go to a countryside area where it was nice and bright, colourful landscape but we had to raise money for it, Jack busks for days weeks and months, every night me and Jack would come back to our old small messy house and sleep. Every Night I was Exhausted and depressed, Jack looks at the photo that has the motorbike he wants and also the countryside. Ting!! Ting!! Money dropping into the money jar. We kept on getting a bit happier because money kept on rising as soon as the last coin spun around and into the jar, a big smile popped on both of our faces. Our Depression started fading away. I slowly put my paw on this green thing. It felt weird until I ran over to chase the butterfly.

Vex IQ movie

 W.A.L.T: Code a robot so it can pick up a block, put it on it's back also pick up another block and stack it on another block.

Here is a video about how to code a robot and how to code what you want your robot to do.

It might sound hard but it is actually easy ( if you knew it really good )

Enjoy the video

Measuring Temperature

 W.A.L.T: identify the hot and cold spots                                                               

3D Drawing

 W.A.L.T: Draw 3D objects

This is my 6th attempt of drawing 3d objects. 

I found this activity hard but easy because we didn't have to draw 2 things, the trick to start it off was to draw the 2d shape first and then start drawing 3d objects. Also we had to add some details. I have improved my drawing by practicing at home and also trying to take my time. I moved from Level 2 to Level 3.

Tessallation Geometry

 W.A.L.T: Tessallate shapes 

Today we had to create patterns with plastic pattern blocks. There were levels level 3 was 1-2 shapes. For Level 4 it was 3-4 shapes and level 5 was 5 shapes. level 5 is yr 9 work, Level 4 is yr 7 & 8 and Level 3 is yr 5 & 6.

Was it stressful?

This activity was very stressful but if you looked at the patterns properly you could see what patterns to use. 

This one has two shapes so this is level 3

Also this has four shapes so this is level 4

Bridge of Terabithia Part 3

 Today our class were doing a part 3 on the bridge of Terabithia and we all had to summarise the main message.

W.A.L.T: Summarise the main message

There were 5 groups at each table some people were away. we had to listen to the main characters and find the letter of but we have to write the whole sentence that has of at the start.

3 Dimensional Drawing

W.A.L.T: draw isometrically. 

What did you do today?

Today my class were learning how to sketch room 5 and 6 together. 2d drawing was easy but 3d was even harder. Some students weren't good at drawing 3d shapes and i am one of them.

How do you think you are doing?

I am good at sketching 2d but not 3d pictures. 3d is harder because you have to know what 3d shapes are called and look like.

This is my Pre assessment

Geometry Isometric

 

This is a photo of what we have been learning about. W.A.L.T: Practice drawing Isometric.

Isometric is a type of drawing. Isometric is just drawing lines on dots and creating some pattern.

Was this hard?

This activity was easy at first but it got harder as i started to get on with it. I wasn't successful because i was mucking around and talking too much.

Sc: I will

Stop talking and mucking around.
