Gymnastics Dance

This term we have been doing gymnastics for our P.E and with a group of four we had to make up a gymnastics routine.

Something I enjoyed was coming up with the routine, something I did well was communicating with my group and something I could do better next time would be to add more motions to the dance.

Area, Perimeter and volume

W.A.L.T: Calculate the area, perimeter and volume of different shapes.

For the last few weeks we have been learning about how to calculate the area, perimeter and volume of shapes and this week we had to make a D.L.O about the area, perimeter and volume of three different things we can find around the class room and this is mine.

I enjoyed thinking of what to calculate, what I did well was calculating the area, perimeter and volume of things and what I could do better next time would be to add more things to calculate and add more pictures to make it more interesting. 

Pick A Path Story

W.A.L.T: Use appropriate language features for a pick a path story.
 This week in writing our class had a task of learning about pick a path stories and we had to make one on a google form and this is mine. I enjoyed thinking of my pick a path story, what I did well was ending the paths well and what I could do better next time would be to add more sections and more paths to make it more interesting.

Children In Northern Ireland

This term we have been learning about social justice, and we had to create our own inquiry about children in our country we wanted to learn about and I wanted to learn about Northern Ireland so this is mine. Something I enjoyed was making the game, something I did well was putting the information into my own words and something I would do better next time would be to put more information about the children.

  

Social Justice

W.A.L.T: identify in our community who may be isolated.
For topic we had a task of identify people in a poster that might be isolated. and this is mine. I enjoyed finding the people who may be isolated, what I did well was finding lots of people who may be isolated and what I could do better next time would be to find more people who may be isolated

Perimeter and Area

W.A.L.T: Calculate the Perimeter and Area of squares, rectangles and triangles.

This week in maths we have been learning about how to work out the Perimeter and Area of shapes. and I have made a D.L.O about the Perimeter and Area of shapes. Something I enjoyed was using my imagination on how to present the Perimeter and Area of some shapes, something I did well was explaining how to Calculate the Perimeter and Area of squares, rectangles and triangles and something I can do better next time would be to have everything more spaced out and not crowded.

The Church Is One But Not Perfectly One.

                         W.A.L.T... Explain what is meant by saying the church is one. But not completely one.

This week in reading we have been learning about how the Church is one but it is not perfectly one, and we had to choose some activities from a list to do and I chose this one, we have to follow the instructions in the slideshow.

Something I enjoyed was add in the images of the catholic church's from each continent, something I did well was adding the names of some non - catholic denominations and something I could do better next time would be to add more images on slide four so that it is more interesting.

Is Graffiti art or is it just messy?

This week we were given a a question Is Graffiti art or is it just messy? and we were given task in writing to choose a side and write a piece of persuasive writing about graffiti and this is mine.

Something I enjoyed was getting the facts about graffiti, something I did well was the graffiti I made and something I can do better next time would be to add more facts to convince the reader more about graffiti.

Is Graffiti art or is it just messy?

I strongly believe that  graffiti is messy. In my opinion graffiti is just people scribbling in places. I feel it  makes places messy and dirty.

Have you ever thought about graffiti? Have you ever stopped to think if graffiti is art or messy? In the following you will be hearing some facts that will make you have another think about graffiti and how bad it is.

One reason, graffiti is bad is because it destroys places and things and it makes places look very untidy and messy. If you get caught  tagging there are lots of consequences that might happen to you depending how old you are, some of them are: you could go to jail for ten years, you could have to do community service and  you could have to pay for the damage costs if it is more than £5,000.  

Moving on from the last paragraph, another reason why Graffiti is messy is because when people tag places, other people have to spend their time and money on cleaning up the graffiti. In fact the Christchurch city council spends nearly  $800,000 on removing the Graffiti and spends up to 2 million a year.( that's a lot ) They find graffiti in all kinds of places like: On Footpaths, roads and lamp posts on Boundary fences at schools, parks, property frontages and walkways and on frontages of  business places.

The final reason why graffiti is bad is because it’s illegal, if people don't have permission to graffiti and in places then it's illegal, not only illegal but it influences other people to do the same things. If other people see that kind of stuff then there is going to be more graffiti, that means more time and more money to clean the graffiti up.

In conclusion Graffiti is bad for everyone and everything,  from the people who graffiti and  clean it up to the people who look at it every day. People have to spend a lot of money cleaning up graffiti and trying to remove it. I strongly believe that graffiti is a waste of time and needs to stop because at the end of the day people, like the city council will have to remove it and you may be the ones getting consequences. After reading this, what do you stand for is graffiti art or is it just messy?

A Picture Using A Compass

W.A.L.T... Use a compass to create a picture

During maths we had to create a picture by using a compass only and this is mine.

Something I enjoyed was having the challenge of drawing with a compass, something I did well was drawing the picture and something I can do better next time would be to do a picture more difficult.
