W.A.L.T add and subtract fractions

These two strategies are what we've learn this week. It was very fun learning them and answering the questions about them. I made this DLO so you can learn these strategies. It might be hard when your simplifying them but it will be easy when you get the hang of it.

The Ridge

This is a story about Danny Macaskill and he did this journey it was very fun to write and the video was very fun to watch.

The Ridge

The Ridge

I’m going to a paradise that I’ve kept for myself, but first I need to ride a kayak and go across to the mountain, then make my way to the other side.

I got my kayak and my bike, then drove of to my paradise.

The water was like that of Antarctica, glacial like dry ice. I rowed and rowed and rowed, looking at the magnificent view that I was in. As I looked around I saw this seal going and following me, he followed me until I was near to the dry land and to the mountain, I waved goodbye and I went off to continue with my journey.

I left my kayak on the shore, then took my bike and went up to the mountains. Using my bike I jumped to rocks after rocks, to get to the paradise that I seek.

I looked left and right, and I saw the beautiful view of “Isle of Skye”. I saw many ridged mountains high and low. I also saw greenlands that are as green as a lime.

I went up and up high to the top. Then as I went further and further I saw my favorite checkpoint. I got off my bike, then carried it while I climbed to the top of the “Sgurr Dearg” a mountain of my home land. The view was a sight to be seen. From that high I could touch the blue sky and the white fluffy clouds.

While I was at the top of that mountain I took off my bike from my back and sat in it and took a rest. But after that I carried on on my adventurous  journey to my elysium. At last after many hours of riding my bike to get to my valhalla, I got there. It was a coast full of wildlife, crabs, shells and much more.

That paradise is my home.

A day of "Buster the Boxer"

This is a video based story that we started this week it is called "Buster the Boxer" It is about a dog named Buster at Christmas time. We had to watch a video and then write a story about it. Anyway I hope you will enjoy my story!

This is the video: Link

Buster the Boxer

Today is the hypothermic, night before Christmas and all I could see is this girl’s bed that’s decorated like Christmas tree. She jumps and hops around, excited to see, her gift from “Santa”.

But when I look outside the house, all I could see, are white back yards full of snow. But, that is not all! Jane’s dad, (my owner’s father) is building a trampoline.

He tried his hardest to build that gigantic thing, he even got hurt trying to bend a piece of metal that’s for the base. Yet when I see the finish product I saw that it was great. However as my eyes coruscate with excitement, I saw two foxes go to the trampoline and jump with enjoyment.

I could all hear what they’re saying, but the humans can’t. Then a couple of moments later, I see this badger saying “Can I join you?”

“Of Course you can!” said one of the fox.

“Now, just jump in the net and hop around.” said the the other.

The badger hopped and jumped with triumph, then more animals to join the fun.

I could see them enjoying themselves, while I, Buster sitting down and not having a good time.

More animals came, and did something that was not lame. There were squirrels too, they join the others and jumped around. I could see them having the time of their lives. But I said to myself that tomorrow, I would also have some fun.

Today is the day that I would have fun, I quickly went to the kitchen to have a bun. I finished eating it and waited to go, outside while there are still lots of snow, (I like snow).

Just as Jane’s mother opened the door, I ran for my life to get to the small hole, (the trampoline had a net around it). I jump and hopped with joy, as people looked at me like I’m weirdo but I didn’t care of any of that because now I’m leaping with joy...

"My 6 words challenge"

W.A.L.T to write a 6 word story

I know I will be successful when I choose my words carefully, do they...

• Capture the mood
• Capture the message
• Capture the setting
• Does it make sense

This week in writing we've been learning about doing the 6 word challenge. It is a challenge where you make a story only using 6 words. It is challenging, because you have to choose you words carefully, and make sure it sounds right. But on the other end it's fun making them. I did four kinds of 6 words topic. The first one is about a video that we watched, the second and third one is about two of the three pictures that our teacher showed us and the last one is about a random topic. Here they are.

1. 6 words challenge for the Mountain topic:

         

Dreams are arduous as climbing Everest.

Climbing only one mountain isn’t enough.

"Dead?!Alien?!"

W.A.L.T create a model that shares something we have learnt about our mystery

This term as you all know we've been learning about mysteries around the world. Also I talked about making a sculpture on another blog post that I made about my mystery. Here it is! Vann, Jullien and I made these sculptures, they we're fun and also hard to make. But they turn out to be great. We needed to shape the head of the "alien" using paper with glue then when we thought it was good enough, we started to paint it. Yet when we started to paint it we saw some huge bumps. What we did then was got some tissue and paint to stick them too the body and head to cover the lumps, and it worked! Then after that we just added some details to it.  Anyway here are some photos of them.
