Plastic Argument

Our learning intention for this argument was : to learn how to write a balanced argument. The topic is about Plastic. I needed to make sure that we alternated the good points and the bad points. I found this very easy after what we did about whether we should sail around the world. I think I have improved after what I did before.

Penguins

This is what I learnt about Penguins. I did this for my homework. We got to choose an animal and I chose the penguin because recently there have been many documents and researches about penguins. I learnt that penguins can't fly because there main way of hunting for fish is by swimming and so they really don't need to. They can swim really fast and if an ostrich and a penguin had the same characteristics the penguin would out maneuver the ostrich. I had lots of fun creating this presentation. 

Japan Presentation

This is a presentation about Japan.  I like doing homework like this because you don't just learn the usual stuff like basic facts and reading a book but you get to use I.C.T and learn more than what you learn in class. Did you know that the original Golden Pavilion was burnt down in 1950 but then rebuilt? I didn't but I came to know about it after doing this presentation. I hope we get to do lots of homework tasks like this in the future.

Marshmallow Maths

This is what happened when we decided to investigate the properties of a marshmallow. My group were in charge of the temperature. It was an awesome way to do maths. (measurement) We learnt lots of new words and new ways of finding out and investigating. I hope we get to do this again. 

'Sailing Around the World" argument

We were learning how to write a balanced argument. We needed to write from two points of view. I found it very easy. It is kind of like arguing between yourself. First we drew a 'T - Chart' and labeled it with For and Against. Then when we were writing it, it was very easy. I hope we get to do this sort of thing again. 

I.C.A.S Science Certificate

This is my I.C.A.S science certificate. I got a distinction. I am very proud of my self because this year the test was harder than usual. 

Child Labour Speech

This is my speech that I wrote to get into the speech finals. My class voted me in and so I participated in the finals and I won that as well. It is about child labour.
