Speeches

At school we've been doing speeches I did my speech on the second day and I was petrified. I'm not a person who likes to speak in front of lots of people. I thought I would get into the semifinals but I didn't which to me is a good thing. My speech this year was about social media and the effects. Actually speeches weren't as bad as I thought it would be, but I was still terrified.

Animal Classification

Today we learned about how animals are classified into groups. Animals are either vertebrates (which means they have a spine) or invertebrates (which don't have a spine).

Invertebrates are animals such as jellyfish, crabs, octopus and insects.

Vertebrates are put into five groups. They are mammals, birds, reptiles,fish and amphibians. Mammals have fur or hair and give birth to live young. Birds have feathers and lay hard eggs. Reptiles are cold-blooded and lay soft eggs. Amphibians breathe through their skin and need to keep their skin moist. Fish breathe through gills and have fins.

Here are five examples of each type:

Mammals: Tiger, Dog, Zebra, Chimpanzee and Otter

Birds: Goose, Swan, Turkey, Parrot and woodpecker

Fish: Goldfish, Eels, Sharks, Seahorses and Stingray

Reptiles: Crocodile, Tuatara, Snake, Tortoise, Chameleon
Amphibians: Frogs, Toads, Newts, Salamanders and Caecilians

Health Picnic

This is my class. We were having a healthy picnic because that is what we were studying all term for inquiry and how to eat better. That day was also wig Wednesday, but not many people remembered their wigs as you can see. The food was delicious and the sushi went fast. I didn't get to try everything but I'm sure it all tasted great.

Poems

In class we were just doing random poems and I did a quatrain poem which is a four line poem.

Monkey Me

I am a monkey

I like to go funky

I hang out on the bars 

And my sister had a trip to Mars

The Liturgical Calendar

This is my Liturgical Calendar that I colored. The Liturgical Calendar is a calendar that tells you what time it is in the year and tells you if it is Easter, Christmas, Lent, Advent and Ordinary time. Each different season has its own color. 

Country Poster

In class we were learning about different countries and made a poster about it and my country was Brazil. I learnt a lot about Brazil. We learnt about other countries because it would be nice to know something about the history and learn to improve our research skills.

Hansel, Gretel And The Witch

During school, for drama we did little scenes of Hansel, Gretel and the Witch. We used the first two or three lines from the script and then we made up the rest by ourselves. I'm the witch, Henry is Hansel and Seihara is Gretel.

Production

At school we had a production. It was called Zip Zap Avenue. all the classes dressed up as a toy and did a dance about their character. My class did ours as Barbies and kens. I was a Ballet Ken and my friend went as Ballerina Barbie. But it was very hot on stage because of all the lights.
It was so much fun!

The Science Roadshow

In the Science Road show they did lots of experiments. They did chemical reaction and the kids at the school showed us how certain things work. There was so many experiments there. Some kids were called up  to help with the experiments. The Science Roadshow was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed it.
