Think about it Thursday
Today for 'Think about it Thursday' the question was why do 'Leaves Change Colour?'. We read through some facts and watched some clips to try and grow our knowledge about leaves. Then we used Padlet to share our learning. Here is the link to our padlet . I enjoyed sharing my learning on Padlet.
I found it challenging to understand the science behind leaves changing colour.

Harry potter and the philosophers stone: Chapter 2 : The vanishing glass
Today in a video conference Miss.Mcleod read us: Harry potter and the philosophers stone: Chapter 2 : The vanishing glass. After that we did a collaborative slideshow on what we would ask a snake if the snake could talk. I asked the snake if it could crawl into my brothers bed but not bite him because that would be mean. Also whether he likes tropical or citrus fruits better. Also do you snakes have friends? Here is the collaboration slide!

Making a recycled board game
Due to the lockdown we have a lot of homework to do. One of the activities is to make a recycled board game.
It was challenging to think of a concept for a game idea. I decided that it was going to be about my favourite youtuber Seth from Seth's bike hacks*, he posts new videos every Friday. He has a second channel called Berm peak express too.
Me and my Dad made a plan of the board on google drawings. We then drew it in pencil on a piece of cardboard, so that we could test it out when we had drawn it all up. It was fun working with dad and getting to pick my own rules and designing the board is fun as well!!!!
It's not quite finished yet but here are some photos 😀😀😀
These are the cards you collect when you go around the board.
Here are the rules:
Have Fun!!!!!
Here's the board, there are advance spaces and go back spaces even shortcuts!
