~Go Animate~

These days I have been using my home account for GoAnimate.
I have learnt how to use it and made these videos. I have the links to them below.

Video 1:Chicken & Cheese
Video 2: Pigs and Monkeys! (Election)
Video 3:Learning how to use Form - Part 1

_________________________________________________________________________________

I think GoAnimate is a awesome website because you can create different things using different characters  In learning how to use Forms I just felt like doing it. I also got my friends to give me ideas for my videos and then I sent a link to them with the video. My next step is to keep going and maybe do my videos a bit more better. I just decided to do a short and simple video and not one that is over complicated.

~My writing plan~

This is my writing plan that my group made for our writing:



Me and my group made a plan for our persuasive writing. We have not made a published one yet but I hope soon we will.

~Monet Gardens~

The picture below is a piece of Art everybody in room 20 has done. We had to use different techniques like sponging, using masking tape and using a brush to create the pond. 

What we had to do...

1. We had to first draw the horizon and the pond so we know what is where. (like the sky and the grass e.t.c)

2 Then we used the masking tape to create the fence. When using the masking tape we had to use the right amount of tape. If it was to short then you would have to use more tape until it was covered where you wanted it too. But if it is to long then you can just rip the rest off.

3. Secondly we used a sponge to sponge on the green and yellow for the grass/ground.

4. Then we did the drag for the sky using a piece of cardboard and using white, light blue and a bit of dark blue.

5. Soon we did the bushes using green for the body of the bushes and blue for the shadow. We used blue because Claude Monet never used pitch black.

6. Next we did the pond with a brush using the colours white and light blue.

7. Soon we did the Lilly pads. We had to use a brush and the colours... Yellow, pink and red.

8. Then we did the flowers (The different coloured dots) with the end (the wooden bit) of the brush and dipped it in different types of colours.

9. Second to last we did our paths witch is the brown spongey bit with a sponge and we used the colour         brown.

10. FINALLY we ripped of the masking tape (Carefully) but some of them the masking tape ripped a bit of the paper off.

Reflection :

I think this was fun and simple. Not to hard or not to easy. We got to learn how to use different types of materials like sponges and brushes. This is a great way to explore and using different materials because we had to experiment sometimes with some parts we did. (Like a practice) My next step is to probably keep practicing and using the techniques and doing more art.

~Big Numbers~

In this post I am showing you what me and my partner found about really big numbers. We started with billions and then went on to even bigger numbers... 
We used a site called Math Cats to find bigger and bigger numbers. All we had to do was type in a number (for example 100000) and it will tell us how to say it and if it is like a million billion e.t.c
This is what we found:

HUGE NUMBERS

1,000,000-1 million

10,000,000-10 million

100,000,000-100 million

1,000,000,000-1 billion

10,000,000,000-10 billion

100,000,000,000-100 billion

1,000,000,000,000-1 trillion

10,000,000,000,000-10 trillion

100,000,000,000,000-100 trillion

1,000,000,000,000,000-1 quadrillion

10,000,000,000,000,000-10 quadrillion

100,000,000,000,000,000-100 quadrillion

1,000,000,000,000,000,000-1 quintillion

10,000,000,000,000,000,000-10 quintillion

100,000,000,000,000,000,000-100 quintillion

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000-1 sextillion

10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000-10 sextillion

Reflection:

I think this was pretty easy because all my partner did was look and find the numbers and typing them down. I think we would've had more numbers but we did not have enough time but I think that we did great. I don't really think I have anything to improve on but my next step is to possibly do maths with these numbers and trying to use them.

~Bridge to Terabitha~Jess's Timeline~

This is my timeline that is showing what has changed in Jess in mostly all the chapters:

Chapter 1 - Jess was shy and unable to stand up for himself.

Chapter 2 - Jess met Leslie & thought she was a strange and weird girl.

Chapter 3 - Leslie beats Jess at a race and he gets angry at her.


Chapter 4 - Jess & Leslie become friends and they create Terabirtha!

Chapter 5 - Jess got a bit mean and he and Leslie wrote a love note to prank Janice Avery the meanest girl in school.

Chapter 6 - Jess is nicer and nicer to Leslie that he even gave her a puppy called PT (Prince Terrien)

Chapter 7 - He met Leslie's family and he liked them a lot  So Jess and Leslie's friendship grew stronger in this chapter.

Chapter 8 - Jess does not change that much in this chapter.

Chapter 9 - He is fearless and goes across to Terabitha even though in the creek there is fast flowing water.

Chapter 10 - he was more confident because Miss Edmonds kind of helped him too.

_________________________________________________________________________________

Finding where and how he changed in each chapter was kind of hard because in some chapters he did not change much and in some he changes a lot and you can not say that much just like a sentence or two. You also had to be creative with the design but I was not able to Draw it on but here is a picture...     
I had to read some of the chapter again and again to see what changed with him and that was pretty easy, then I just had to write it down.

~Bridge To Terabithia~Leslie's Obituary~

~leslie’s Obituary~

We are sad to announce that Leslie Burke has died.

She died on 10 January 1974. Leslie died by swinging across a very old rope hanging on a crabapple tree, the rope snapped and Leslie fell to her death. Soon she was drowning in the following water.

Leslie Burke(Left),Jesse Aarons(right) & PT(Prince terrain) the dog.

Background information:

Leslie attended Lark Creek Elementary and is a 5th grader. Leslie was a friend of Jesse Aarons and they both were best friends.

Funeral Information:

Leslie will be cremated and her ashes will be placed in the Burkes family home in pennsylvania

_________________________________________________________________

Above is my Obituary that I had to write for Leslie's death.

For when she died we had to choose a random date because it did not state it in the book.

Writing it was not that difficult if you knew exactly what happened because we just read up to the part where they said that Leslie had died but not how she died, so all the teacher said is that she drowned. Only some of us knew how she drowned so it was easier for us. (the rope snapped and she drowned in the water)

This was a fun activity because we got kind of feel like we were her parents and seeing their perspective when writing this.

~Sophia :)
