Term 1 Week 4

                                Hello

This week I did some maths on estimation because in the test I got some of the questions wrong I did some things on just rounding and some significant figures. I also rounded then divided or multiplied in a couple of the questions I made some dumb mistakes like reading the question out of the book of not rounding the number nine to the number ten.

In tech arts we cut out our jerseys. We started to sew our design on if we had one and if we didn't have a design then we sewed our shoulder seams. On Tuesday I cut out my jersey and design and started to sew my design on on the front of my jersey I have the letter b and on the back I have a cat face and also a paw print. My jersey has a neon lime green back and front. My hood, pocket and sleeves are all ombre and my pattern is black because it shows up a lot better on the light color of my jersey. I learnt that when you sew a pattern onto something you do zigzag but you have to go backward were normally with zigzag you don't go backwards.

This week we started a new writing task our task is to wright an explanation on one of the seven wonders of either the Medieval word, the modern world, the natural world, the ancient world. I choose one of the seven wonder of the natural world the Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis in the north and Aurora Australis in the south. I learned that the Northern Lights are In the south I only knew that they were in the north.

Term 1 Week 3


This week I finished my visual language task In this task we had a A3 sized piece of card and on it we had to describe our past present and future with photos and words printed of the computer or cut out of  a magazine. on the back we had to write a piece that said why we put certain photos on.


This week I found out that I have been selected to participate in the tough guy and gal challenge this challenge is a mud run where you go through an obstacle course  climbing under and over things even through a stream of thick mud.

On Friday we started french we mainly revised on things we learnt last year and most of us had forgotten many things. We also talked about the opportunity of going to New Caledonia. I am thinking of going on this trip to help with my french skills and to go somewhere I have not been.
