Tech

This week for Tech, we learnt about Robot parts and did a quiz about our understandings. We learnt the parts and had a play around the off and on buttons and played around it.

 

Social influence

 

This week, LS2 was learning about social influence and did activities such as, agree to disagree which is when a question is called and for example it was “Is it okay to send photos of other people to your friends without permission” and we went to the part we argreed on. Peer pressure shouldnt be something you have to do. Follow your own path.

Building our Class Culture

In week 2/3, we were learning about leaders and how fierce their leading was. After that, we got into groups of 5/7 and got given squared papers and started enlarging trying to copy and paste it into the white papers. Then, we gathered all the squares together and started coloring it in. Finally, we fixed some mistakes and it came out beautiful.

Multiplication

Today day in LS2, we practiced multiplication using an algorithm, which is a step-by-step method for solving the problem. We learned how to do the multiplication correctly and ensure our answers are accurate. The part I liked most was figuring out the problem by following the right strategies.

First Flight in the Obsidian Night

Shadows stretched across the horizon as the air turned crisp and biting against my downy feathers. A sudden, powerful gust of wind shoved against my back, forcing me to sink my sharp talons deeper into the rough, fibrous bark of the ancient branch. All around me, the forest danced wildly, with silver leaves tossing and turning in the arctic breeze. I widened my binocular eyes, scanning the obsidian darkness for any sign of movement. High above, the haunting whistles of the elder owls echoed through the trees, beckoning me to join their dance. My wings felt like lead weights, and a shiver of trepidation rippled through my small, compact body, nearly drowning out my dreams of flight.

Tonight was the night I would fly for the first time, or is it?

Suddenly, the safety of my sturdy branch vanished as a violent gale screamed through the canopy. The ancient wood groaned under my weight, and a sharp crack echoed through the silent woods. My heart hammered against my ribs like a trapped bird. As the fibrous bark slipped from my talons, leaving me tumbling into the empty, cold air. I was no longer a spectator of the night and I was going to fall headfirst into the unknown below me. The sensation of the wind brushed against my ears as I was falling.

At that very moment while I was falling, my vision became a blur and I could see leaves swooping at me. Whilst my pending doom, my instincts collided with my fear. I fought with the urge to unfurl my wings against the strong wind. The air bellowed with roars in my ears and for a heart stop second, I felt a gust of wind against my wings. I was spinning out of control, desperate to find a way to turn this deadly fall into a graceful flight.

When I felt the dense wind, almost a flicker of desire came to me. I overcame my fears and chose to flap my trembling wings in a desperate need of help. I felt freedom and celebrated in triumph. Looking back at my branch, I learnt that my instincts were stronger than my fear, and the sky was exactly where I was meant to be.

____________________________________________________________________________

This week we wrote a narritive inspired by a book called “Fly by night”. In this activity, we got into pairs or threes if needed and drew  something called a ‘ Wabble Gabble’, which is basically a map leading to each part of the story. Then, we learnt about POV’s  and 1-3 person words. This narritive we had to use Gem to give us more detailed examples. Finally, we were simplying our paragraphs and added onto it with questions provided from Gem.
