Fantastic Fantasy Essay

 

Hey peoples, 

Over the past 4-5 weeks, my literacy group has been working on our video essays. Previously we have learnt about all the different genres and their conventions. I chose to do Fantasy which ended being a 7.30minute video essay. 

Here it is:

Brilliant Blast-Off

 

Hey peoples,

After a long process of building and creating our rockets, we have finally launched them. We did this near the fitness track on the backfield. Pippa, Caprice, Tilly, and I's rocket didn't really go to plan, it only flew about 6m but it went quite a decent way up! I think the reason it didn't go that far was that the paint was all blotchy, and because we had 4 bolts all spaced around in our nose-cone, (next time we think we need to put a couple in the lid). 

Here is a video clip of our flight:

Please post any feedback below in the comments!

See ya later!

Think before you throw!

 

Hey peoples,

We have been learning a lot of coding skills over the year. First, we had to go through a tutorial/practice that helped us learn how to debug and work with Python. Python is a coding website that is a bit like Scratch, (it has all the sprites, stages, actions, etc). My PSA I coded is all about how lucky we are to have the money we have and that we shouldn't take it for granted. I chose this message because there are a lot of people out there in the world who need our help. This is for everyone because it isn't just up to a few people to help, everyone needs to do their bit.

Here is my code:




Here are a few screenshots:









This caption shows when the boy just chucks a full water bottle into the bin, the other person is poor, she doesn't have enough money for clean water.









This caption shows when a girl is telling the boy that if he doesn't want the water then perhaps donate it to the poor.









This caption shows you what is right, 'if you don't want something that costs money then think about who else might need it'. 


I hope you have learnt something today about what you might want to do in the future.

See ya later,
