Country Study Posters

For reading and writing, we did country studies. Each of us chose different countries to research. I did the Netherlands and I learned a lot about its traditions and different facts as well. Did you know Vincent van Gough the famous painter was born and raised in the Netherlands? Also, the Russian flag is the same colours as 
The Netherlands flag just mixed up. I chose this country because
I didn't know much about it and thought it would boost my knowledge. I think the Netherlands is really interesting!

 

     














   

Anzac Pamphlets

For ANZAC Day this year we made pamphlets. Me and my friend Ruby did one together. The pamphlets were about an item and it's owner's story. We decided to do a violin string. There were many books made about the owner of it including The ANZAC Violin. I thought the story of the violin was really interesting.

When the pamphlets were done we put them in red pockets. This is how ours turned out. 

Growth Mindset Brain

For inquiry this term our class is learning about Growth Mindset.

Being In Room 7 For a Day

Yesterday Ruby, Emelia and I went to Room 7 for the day. Ruby and my friends Ella and Sophie were put into Room 8 with someone else. Though we were split up we had a great day. All of us sat together on the spare table while we did work from our schedule.
We took scissors, a pencil, a pencil case, our Chromebook and our mouse. To start off with we did Writing on Noredink before doing Reading on Freckle and Epic. Then we did a Saint Joseph pamphlet. Before we could finish the lunch bell rang. After lunch, I used the afternoon time to do some more mindfulness
colouring. I didn't manage to finish but I got a lot done. Later we continued with our colouring while calming mindful music played.
A few minutes later it was the end of the day. It was one of the busiest days ever!     
      

Reading Posters

this week for reading my teacher let us do study posters. we had to choose an animal to do it on. I chose giant pandas my friends Emma, Ella, Sophie, and Ruby helped with pictures the reason I chose Giant pandas is because they are my favorite animals I learned a lot of new facts about them I even found out about some new jokes wanna hear one why do pandas have fur coats? because they'd look silly in denim jackets here is how the poster looks.
