For 2 weeks and a half we have been doing one point perspective calendar art. It took me all of the 9 days to get my art  finished . If you don't know what one point perspective is it is two or more lines meeting at an end point. Have you ever done one point perspective art and how long did it take to finish? Blog you later Nicolas

Who's more famous silde

For the last 3 weeks we have been learning about 20th Century explorers. Here is my blog post answering the question Why is one explorer more famous than the other? Here is my answer.

Sir Edmund Hillarys Everest adventure

Sir Edmund Hillary is the world's most famous New Zealander because he reached the summit of Mount Everest.LED expeditions in to the Antarctic on specially made tractors . crossed the mighty Ganges River in a jet boat all the way to it's source a Himalayan mountains and was knighted by the Queen.

songs and sounds

today we tried to create volume and pitch using all sorts of instruments. I learnt that the longer or the bigger the instrument it will make a lower pitch. but the shorter or the thinner the instrument is the higher the pitch will be.

Dodge or Dare Challenge

Here is my awesome party game that you can play at home. It's called Dodge or Dare. I made a slide with instructions for how to play the game. Enjoy!

Seeing Sound

Yesterday we did a sound experiment we tried using cups and string to see if we could hear each other.  We also tried to make sprinkles move on plastic wrap using vibration. I learnt that a square box will not work but a round bowl will work and the sprinkles will jump around from vibrations.

Bradley's monster

This week we are reading a book about a boy being bullied and was called a monster. The boy drew a Monster and this is what I think it looks like. 

What do you think of monster looks like?

here's my animal slide

hieroglyphics names

  Yesterday we used hieroglyphics to write a name or a message. Here are my hairoglyphics. Can you figure out what they are?                                                                                                                                     

Footprints in the Sand

Footprints in the Sand

We landed on a beach in the desert!!!  But we were in Antarctica when we fell unconscious. Our pets and us were washed up on the beach. The old looking pirate ship was wrecked. Suddenly, in the distance, we heard some moaning. Then the moaning stopped!!! We thought it was a group of desert cormorants but then we heard footsteps. I carried my poor pet compsognathus who broke his leg. Suddenly we saw a few marks then a strange footprint like-mark and then footprints. 

These footprints had to lead somewhere, I said.

This is starting to get paranormal, said Cade. What if it’s a demon?

Don't be a chicken, I said. Maybe it's just one of the local residents in the desert. 

Suddenly a cobra slithered past us. We stood still and watched it pass. We kept walking for 7 hours and getting hungrier and thirstier with every second gone by. Suddenly in the distance we saw a city. We rushed as fast as we could. Cade’s pet indoraptor, Invincible, quickly dashed past us. 

Suddenly another figure appeared but this time it looked like a human. We found ourselves standing at a massive tower and there was a person. Strangely it was Mace. He was skinny. We helped him up and immediately gave him food and water. 

How did you get here? Cade said. 

The shipwreck washed me somewhere else along the beach. I sent Bonehead to look for someone.

Wait a minute! Where is he? I said. 

Suddenly a loud roar echoed across the desert as the skinny pachycephalosaurus ran towards Mace. We fed him some plants and continued on the journey. They were happy to be found. 

Later we embarked on an even greater journey. One that we would never imagine we will take part in.

A New Way to Travel

After a long, tiring journey at last we were closer to the future and closer than we thought. Suddenly we saw something we never saw before. There were 3 metal, hot air balloons stuck together with almost supersized car engines on top of them and strange orbs hanging from them. 

Let's get on them, I said. 

Are you sure? said Cade. They look dangerous.

Probably not, I said. They don't look that dangerous. They just look like regular balloons.

I think it's a good new way to travel, said Mace. 

We got into the balloons. It was very cramped. The balloons quickly flew into the air. Unlike normal hot air balloons, these ones could move left to right. We drifted over a mangrove and soon drifted into the ocean. Whales dived in the water and Cade even spotted a pod of Orcas. 

A New Way to TravelSuddenly a plane crashed into the balloons ...
