Egg Drop Challenge

On FriYAY!!! the 31st of July we did an Egg Drop Challenge. For the challenge. We had to make a little parachute for the egg to sit-in while it was going down. We dropped them off the grandstand at the domain. I was working with Ashley and Lola. The materials we used were newspapers, tape, two balloons, string,  straws, a sock, and scissors (for cutting). at first, we had a plan of how we would make the parachute. first, we made the place where the egg went for that we used the sock and we put some paper in the sock for padding and we stuck some straws on the sock and the egg went in the sock. For the parachute, we blew up two balloons and tied some string on the bottom of the balloon then we tied the leftover string on the straws and for our finishing touch we drew two eggs on each balloon with some faces and there was a bubble that had them saying yo haha. We went over to the grandstand and we were a bit nervous because we thought the egg might crack. we dropped our parachute and when it touched the ground it touched it quite softly so we went down to check and..... IT DID'T CRACK!!! we where so happy that it didn't crack. at the end we had a photo with the people whos egg didn't crack. 

Literacy Mystery.

This week I have done a solved a mystery of who stole the treasure off the Black Barnacle. This one wasn't like the math mysteries we did this is a literacy one. I did some working out and putting sentences together and lots of other things.

Matariki Jigsaw.

This week I did the Matariki jigsaw. It took all week for me to do it but I finished just today. I Had to do a lot of writing down, coloring and cutting. I found out some interesting facts along the way that there is 500 stars in the Matariki cluster which is insane!!!. Today is the last day of school before the holidays. we watched a movie in class with popcorn which was nice. here is a picture of my Matariki jigsaw.

Slide show animation

This week I made a slide show animation in the options. I had a think about what I was going to do and then something popped in my mind. I had to do a lot of putting things in places, thinking where everything went, and lots of other things. I did have some other ideas but they did,t work out. the key to making it look like a movie is to duplicate the slides and when you do that make your image move and sometimes you should check how it is going before it is done. I tried my best and this is what I did.
