Post 4 Term 2 Week 9

Reading: I finished off my novel studies after tediously completing passage picker, which was soo boring! I had to flick dozens of pages and find various emotions but it seemed, the only ones I could find were about joy and happiness so my essay was rather one sided

Maths: Emily T and I started and finished our slides for statistical investigation. Our focus was to brighten up the school using murals and plants. Our final conclusion was to add murals that represented different cultures in Rosehill and a spiky plant garden, which the majority voted for.

Science: This week I presented my joint presentation along with Joyce and Talia. Our score was okay, and I could've done better. I really enjoyed the research and presenting was pretty nerve racking.

Health: For health, we were stabbed in the shoulder and made to suffer from sore, heavy arms while a dead virus made it's way through our bodies so we would be immune to it for ten more years. My needle took ages to get under my skin and when it did, liquid spurted everywhere. Great week.

    I love the various language features you used for health!

    It sounds like you had a fun but challenging week! What plants are you thinking of using for science? I agree that you guys got a good science score because it was great! In Slide the Corner I have to agree with you it was rather all happy but there are definitely lots of parts where you feel like you want to punch Mr & Mrs Mannering in the face. This is a great reflection and you should be proud

End of Term 2 Reflection

Reading: This term we made our novel studies and we looked at Character Analysis which included Physical appearance, Personality traits, Growth, and relationships. After this, we used the information we had gathered to create an essay. The next task was main events and a summary, then mapping where we looked at the setting of the story. Connections were very important and there were three types of them; text to self, which means how we can connect to the book, text to text, which means have we read any books similar to the book and text to the world, which is about how the book has similarities to everyday life. Passage Picker was the author's purpose and the words they used to show emotions to the reader. I think that all my 'passages' were about the emotion of happiness, and one of them was about the first time Greg was racing in a rally. 'My fingers relax a bit. I stop trying to brace my feet. I breathe properly and my heart steadies. But that doesn't stop the b...

Learning Week 6 Term 2

Learning Week 6 Term 2 Reading:  I used visualisation and clues from the text to create a map based on the setting in 'Slide the Corner'. It was difficult because I couldn't get a feel of the place so I had to skim and scan for tid-bits of information that painted a very blurry picture. Writing: In writing, we practised quick writes, where we try to fit in one skill in a short story.We have used prepositions, practised descriptive writing using adjectives, adverbs, and figurative languages Maths: I learnt about the Mean, Median, Mode and Range and how to identify them using a poem. Hey diddle diddle, The median is in the middle. You add and divide for the mean. The mode is the one you see the most. The range is the difference between. Topic: I learned about the visual features of a Goliath Bird Eating spider and how it uses its hairs to inflict damage to the mucous membranes in the eyes. Its colour depends on which area it lives in. It's a varied sha...
