art

recently I've been making progress on my artwork, and for inquiry I will be showing some of it with Nevaeh, I really need more ideas because it's coming up quickly so comment some ideas of what you want me to draw and I will browse them and probably pick a couple. I don't do portraits of people or anything, but I do prefer to draw semi-realistic drawings of skeletons, mini marvel characters, and sometimes people (thats one of my weaker areas).
so please comment ideas of what I could draw for inquiry! :)

math progress

For maths on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday I completed a worksheet based on multipication.
As you can see on the graph I have improved on my 6 and 9 times tables but work is needed on the 7 and 8 times tables.

inquiry progress

I have made some recent progress for my inquiry me and Nevaeh are planning to draw multiple drawings and put them in a clear folder and show them for our inquiry.
I have found inspiration for some of my drawings through these images:

Today is the last day of term three, this morning we had tech.
I worked on completing the light I was previously working on for 10 weeks.
The light was a success and I'm really happy with the way it turned out.
Afterwards we came back and the whole class had a shared lunch to celebrate the end of term and having Mr Kidd as our teacher for the term.

Earlier in the week I made a hundred word explanation of my science this term:

This term in science I made hokey pokey, which helped me learn more about atoms and molecules.

I discovered that hokey pokey is made with a chemical formula called NaHCO3, which is commonly known as baking soda.

This reacts with the golden syrup and release a gas called carbon dioxide (co2).

I’ve also went on a trip to Rutherford’s Den recently and there I learnt some useful information about atoms and how they are formed. 

Sharon told my literacy group about the periodic table and I learnt there are 118 elements.

I have had fun learning about science this term.

Recently I have discovered Piskel which is a program where you create animated pixel art (I didn't create these but there is an example below)

The key to posting a good comment on someones blog:

How to write a good comment:
1-in some way, compliment the writer- make sure that you are being positive and be specific about what it is that you like.
2-Give the publisher some new information- add in some facts you know (because it may be useful for them next time)
3-Make a personal connection e.g. telling them something they did and how it relates to you
4-Ask a question e.g. how long did it take for you to make this?
5-fluctuate the length of your comment so that it isn't too long or too short - proof read it.
6-Don't
