Term 4 Week 1

The first week of term 4 has been a fun week with lots of things that we did but I'm only going to explain a couple of the things that we did.

One of the things we did was sports rotation with Hillary We did tee-ball against Room 4 and the second game was capture the flag against Room 7.
It was really fun.

The second one is when we started a new inquiry and we watched a video of a monkey going into space and coming down in 60 years and how different earth would be.

Stereotyping

For inquiry we watched a video on stereotyping and had to draw a picture

here it is:

Benjamin Franklin And Ernest Rutherford

Electronics review

Finished Electronics Project

In electronics we have to make a picture light up with LED's.

First we chose a picture to use (had to be Christmas themed) then we stuck it onto a piece of corefloot then we drilled holes in the corefloot then stuck our LED's in then wired it

This is a picture of the wiring:

My Fable

For writing we had to write a fable and I chose the to animals the Lion and the Lizard.

This is my story:

The Lizard and The Lion

One day in the African desert the lion needed help. He needed help because his dad died he was very sad and couldn't stop crying he had been crying for days but he could only think of one person to help him. The lizard, so he called the lizard for help.

So he came and said to remember the stuff that happened that were good so that's what the lion tried to do and it worked. He was very happy with the outcome of that that he ran away smiling.

The End

This is my picture that went with it:
