Terrific two days

Kia ora, hello peoples,

Over the past two days I have written two more slides. One about perseverance and one about home.

Yesterday I did one about perseverance. Mr Shaw gave us 3 questions about The Wizard of Oz and we had to answer as many as we could.  I answered all of them and posted it onto a slideshow where we had to post our answeres under our name.
Here is mine:

Today's task was to answer 3 questions about the differance between Oz and Kansas. Oz is a bright and colourful place with bright and happy people. Where Kansas is a dark and grey place full of miserable people that never smile. Kansas is Dorothy's home.
Here is my work:

Yours sincerely,

Precious poppy🥀

Kia ora, hello peoples,

Today is Friday! The teachers have set us some fun and creative tasks to do. One of the ones I did was to create a poppy.

I needed to use either a New World or Warehouse bag ( or just a red bag ), some black material, a nail, a hammer, scissors and a wooden board. I used all of them but instead of a wooden board I used a wooden spoon. I also stuck a rubber over the back where the nail stuck out so I didn't prick myself.

Here is my poppy:

The Base of a Brain

Kia ora, hello peoples,

Today we had a task based on the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz. As he admits he has no brains, we had to write about what we think brains are and if brains just mean we are smart.  We also had to list a quote with it.

I had a couple of quotes and a description:

Creative Courage

Kia ora, hello peoples,

A literacy task I did today was to write about on a slide what courage means to us. We had to list a quote and an example with it. We did this task because the lion in The Wizard of Oz had no courage and was a coward. He wanted courage though.

My quote and example was about thinking positively and giving it a go:

Having a Heart

Kia ora, hello peoples,

Today in literacy we had to write on a slide on what having a heart or what having heart means to us and then give an example of it. The example could be in real life, a book or a movie.

 I chose to write about what having a heart means. My example I gave was from James and the Giant Peach:

Perhaps you learnt something from that?! Until next time,

Yours sincerely

Terrific Tinkercad

Kia ora, hello peoples,

Another post in lockdown! Today my maths teacher gave us a tough task of designing a house on Tinkercad. Tinkercad is a website where you can design 3d models and have a lot of fun.

With our house we had to make sure we had to have a living room, a kitchen, a bathroom and at least two bedrooms. We then had to work out the area and volume of the house.
Here is my house, my total volume was 705,750mm cubed!:

Perhaps you might like to give Tinkercad a go?!

Wicked Witch Art

Kia ora, hello peoples,

A task that Mr Shaw set us for literacy was to design our own witch. We could do this online or on paper and then we had to put a photo and a description of it on a slide.

I did mine on paper, its name is Wickster.
Here it is:

Bye for now!

Yours sincerely

Mathical Maths

Kia ora, hello peoples,

Today in lockdown maths we had to work out the area of our isolation bubble and pick and measure an object/thing and then work out how many of that object would fit in our bubble.

I have worked out the area of my bubble (isolation bubble) and picked a die as my object.

After I had worked out the calculations I realised that my bubble was 12.56m squared and I could fit 55,822.22 dice in the bubble!

I hope you understand what I was trying to tell you!

Yours sincerely Sophie.  :o)

Lockdown School Day 2

Kia ora, hello peoples,

Today my work has taken quite a while but now it is completed. This blog post will show you my math and literacy work. Hope you enjoy!

For maths today I have found some objects/things around the house/backyard, one of them isn't from the house but just from in the world. We had to find them for capacity, weight and length, and then place them in the correct boxes. Here they are:

For literacy we had to think of some books/movies that had some simalarities to The Wizard of Oz and why they were similar. Then we had to put them on a slide. Here is my slide:

Thanks for looking!

Yours sincerely

First school lockdown day!

Kia ora, hello peoples,

A very busy day today. I thought I was going to have a bit of spare time after lunch but I was wrong, I've just finished it!

Maths took up most of the day. I found it quite fun! We had to find multiple objects around the house and then order them from least complex to most complex. We also had to count the vertices, edges and faces on each object.
Here is mine:

I have also done some literacy work. I had to make a timetable for this week. I am still going to make changes as the week goes on.

Here it is:

Good bye for now!
