Meet The Teacher Day!

Yesterday, our school had a programme at 5pm to 6:30pm and that programme involved our parents or grandparents. It was meet the teacher day! Every student in the school had to get their parents or grandparents, and show them how they are doing at school. The picture above shows my levels, my inspirational quote, my challenge for this year, my basic facts result and my goals.

Expectations For 2019

Food Festival

This week our class each chose a country to study the, foods they eat and the festivals, I chose India. The pictures you see above, are the four foods that Indians eat on Diwali.

Composting and Worm farming

Picture

This term my group of friends and I made this project. Our inquiry investigation question was, how to compost in the winter. First, we used the internet to research our topic.  Then we constructed this project. I brought the small, green bucket and filled it with leaves, grass and bark. Jaiden and Javarn painted the box blue to represent the bright sky. Iraia grabbed a batch of paper napkins, one piece of cardboard and white paper. We all drew the snowflakes in the background and we even added a little snowman, but our teacher told us that we had to make the snowflakes 3D. The snowflakes are cut out of the picture, but you could see the edge of it on the top right corner. We used a small bucket, paper napkins, a cardboard box, a piece of cardboard and a piece of white paper. The easiest part of our project was the painting part, because Javarn spoke to me and said, “It only took five minutes!” The most challenging part of this project was making the snowflakes. As I said before, our teacher told us that we had to make it 3D, which was pretty difficult. It helped me understand more, because it was more realistic. The next thing I would like to investigate, is the solar system.

Mondo grass

The picture above is about our school sitting on the ground surrounded by mondo grass. Mondo grass is very special because there is something about it that makes it very unique form our ordinary grass. The volunteer told us that we had to push the grass down with all our might. Then the the mondo grass will just slowly make it's way back up. The volunteer explained to us that the mondo grass is us, when we are pushed to the ground we should get back up and try again.

Buddhist Temple

Today our school went on a trip to the Buddhist temple in Botany. One of the activities we got to be a part of was, making origami lotus flowers. After all the other activities, we all assembled in a hall and they all gave us one bell each. 

Circuit

Yesterday my friends and I built a circuit. Before you actually make a circuit you will have to draw it out on a sheet of paper. At first we were struggling because we haven't built a circuit before. It was interesting because our circuit was different then the others.
