In early November It was the parihaka day. Because it was a special day we decided to create a feather or a news report about what happened on the parihaka day. I made the feather. For this task I had to write 4+ words onto the feather. It was very simple. I enjoyed thinking of all the words relating to peace. But I also found thinking of the words a bit difficult. Do you know what happened on the parihaka day? If you do please let me know in the comments.
Kia Ora! Do you ever wonder what service is or how to show it? Well you are in luck! Last week my class created a poster about service. We did this as this school term our religious education focus is service.
For this awesome task we chose a poster from the templates or we chose a background and started from scratch. Then we added facts about how to show service.
I enjoyed animating the blue and orange people.
And I found formatting the words so they fit neatly onto the page difficult.
Do you know how to show acts of service? If you do please tell me in the comments!
Or make your own Canva service poster.
For this task we got to freestyle/playaround with our background, animation and elements. But we had to include: A video of ourselves, 3 achievements and at least some sort of animation.
I found thinking about the three achievements challenging and I enjoyed exploring the animations and elements because not only was it entertaining instead of boring we got to try new things which is always a amazing thing to do!

On the first of September my class made a Father's Day card blogpost to schedule to today. We made cards to celebrate Father’s Day.
For this task we watched a video showing us how to make amazing origami cards.
I enjoyed this activity because I got to have fun drawing and got to test my origami skills.
I did not find anything challenging which is good because now I can easily create amazing cards.

AfterToday we learnt how to either Blow up a balloon with vinegar and baking soda or yeast, Make a volcanic eruption or explode a lunch bag. I chose to do a volcanic eruption because I've always wanted to but I never knew how to and I only had the supplies to do the volcano.
For this exciting task I had to gather baking soda, dish soap and vinegar. Instead of making a volcano because the dirt was too stiff to dig in covered the bottle with leaves sticks and it was easy to grab dirt. I did not find anything challenging except taking the photos because of the sun and the big tree behind me.
Have you ever made a volcano or have you ever seen a live volcano?

Today I did not learn that much. But I did learn that sea lions are very cute!
We did this puzzle to give our minds a break to relax.
For this task we had to do a puzzle about two sea lions lying down in the snow.
I enjoyed this task because it was relaxing and it kept me busy for 3-4 minutes.
The only challenging thing about this puzzle was when I tried to beat my time.

This week my reading group (The Ruby Rhinos) did a summarizing activity about how bees and other insects communicate. We summarized the text because we did a science experiment about how bees vibrate to collect the pollen from flowers.
I think my learning went amazing because I got to learn a lot about how insects communicate and I also got to more about bees and ants.
I think that just getting the task done on time was challenging because we only started summarizing the text on wednesday.
What is a fact you know about bees or other insects?
We read a book on a site called Epic. Epic is a free reading site for kids with educational books and comic books!
