Fri-yay tasks!

Kia Ora bloggers,
Today we had our technology tasks again. This time I chose to make a pizza. I made the dough and let it sit for about an hour then I rolled it out. When I went to get some tinned tomatoes to put on it, I realized there were no tinned tomatoes. Instead, I had to use some leftover sauce from dinner the night before, it tasted just as good. I only put on salami, onions, and cheese because I don't like anything else on it.

The other task that I did was to design my own birthday cake. I made it on a website but it wouldn't let me take a screenshot or download it. It had 5 layers. 2 of them were chocolate flavoured and the other 3 were vanilla. On the outside, I put cream and drew some cow print on it with icing.

See you next time!

Friyay Tasks

Kia ora bloggers,
Because it is Friday today, we got to do tasks that are a little different from usual. Instead of literacy and numeracy, we did stuff a little more creative. We did stuff from our tech classes today. I chose to do a sewing task. We had to get some old material that we had around our house and turn it into something new. I found these sweatpants in my mums room and decided to make it into a 3 piece clothing set. I don't think I'll ever wear the top but it was really fun to make. I made some sweat shorts, a top, and a scrunchie.

This is the second task that I did today was to design a food truck. I like cow print at the moment so I decided to make it cow-themed. The menu has Moookies and Cream, Chocolate Mooose, Mooogurt and Cream, and Moookey Poookey. Moookies and cream is vanilla ice cream with big cookie chunks to resemble cow print. Chocolate Mooose is chocolate ice cream. Mooogurt and Cream is vanilla ice cream with some frozen yogurt on top. Mookey and Poookey is Hokey Pokey.

See you next time:)

Cartesian Planes

Kia Ora bloggers,
In maths this week, we have been learning about Cartesian Planes and the transformations that you can do on them. Today we had to translate and reflect 3 different objects on a Cartesian plane. I chose a square, a triangle, and an object that looks kind of like a crown. Here is my slide with the pictures:

For me the square was the easiest, then the triangle, then the crown. It took me quite a while because I couldn't figure out how to use the website, but I eventually figured it out. Tomorrow we have to do part 2 of this and learn how to enlarge and rotate.

See you next time:)

Maths android

Kia ora bloggers,
In maths today, we had to make a math android on tinkercad. It took me about 1 hour and a half to complete it. I made mine have a hole in the middle so that it's like a box. I made my design pretty simple I used cubes for the arms, legs, torso, and head. I used cylinders for the eyes and the blue and pink button. I used a cone for the hat.

After we made it, we had to put a picture on a slide and then write the steps of how me made it.
See you next time!

The pyramid of Giza

Kia ora bloggers,
In math, we had to make a scale model of a famous landmark. I chose Khufus Pyramid from the Pyramids of Giza. I chose it because it was the first famous landmark that came to my head. I was thinking about doing the Eiffel Tower but saw that that was already quite popular.

The original dimensions were:
Height:147000mm
Length:230000mm
Width:230000mm

After I scaled it down:
Height:73.5mm
Length:115mm
Width:115mm

What does it mean to have heart?

Kia Ora bloggers,
In Literacy, we have been reading the Wizard of Oz. We are learning about the tinman at the moment so we had to write a paragraph on the difference of having heart and having a heart. We had to do this because the tinman wants a heart.

This is what I think it means to have heart and to have a heart.

See you next time!

My amazing house

Kia ora bloggers,
In maths, we have been learning about area and volume. As one of our tasks, we had to make a house on tinkercad. It could only have a total area of 8000mm squared. At my first attempt, I accidentally made it way too big. I then made a smaller version that became my final product. Here is a picture of it:

The family we had to make a house for had 2 parents and 2 kids so we had to make at least 2 bedrooms. We also had to include a toilet, a living room, and a kitchen.
Have you ever used tinkercad before?
See you next time!

Day 3 of online school

Kia ora bloggers,
Today we had a fun Fri-yay task instead of the usual literacy task. We had to create an artwork inspired by the wizard of oz. It had to be inspired by the wizard of oz because that is the book we are studying this term. I printed out a picture of Dorothy, the Tin Man, the Lion, and the Scarecrow walking and cut them out. I then used the paper that I cut them out of as a template. I put it on a new piece of paper then sponged on watercolour paint. Here is the finished product!

I tried to make the colours match the person.
See you next time!

Online Learning - Day 1

Kia Ora Bloggers,
Today was our first day of online school for Term 2. We start with a 30-minute video call from 9:00am. During that call, we are assigned work to do. Today we had to read chapters 1-4 of The Wizard of Oz. I have only read a little bit but I'm interested to see what happens next. After that, I did my math work. We are learning about the properties of shapes. We had to pick some objects from our house, take a picture, then label the vertices, faces, and edges. Here is my slide:

I chose a book, hand sanitiser, a remote, and a Rubiks cube as my objects.
