Reflection of Chromebooks


How has having a netbook, connected to the internet, helped my learning this year?

It helped my learning this year by making it easier and better to do because it saves my work and I can put it in a folder which I can always go to when I need to go to  do some work, It is unlike a book or paper because you can easily.

lose the work and if you need that paper or book to do your work, it won’t be there. If I’m in someone’s house and I want to do some school work but I can’t bring my  book to their house because it’s being checked at school.

My favorite thing to do in my chromebook is to draw in sumo paint and pixlr.

My Super Writing About Facebook

WALT disagree/agree about going on Facebook

  I 100% believe, that children under 13 should never have a  Facebook account,  having a Facebook account is horrible and having a Facebook account terrible.
Having Facebook is bad because, If  children under 13  get a Facebook account, people will block you on Facebook and you will feel unpopular and you will feel lonely. I wish Facebook was never made and people is not going to use it.

Having a Facebook account is horrible because people might post things that are inappropriate for children like saying bad words, bullying, showing bad pictures and write comments that says bad meanings. Children would see bad things and copy and won’t understand what it means and think that they’re cooler.

Having a Facebook account is terrible because it is against the law and you could get in very, very, very big trouble and could go to jail. Nobody will look after you and you will be very lonely.  People might laugh at you because you went to jail and sometimes they might even bully you.


Now we know why children under  13 should never have a Facebook account. People can block you in Facebook, in Facebook people can post bad things to you, Facebook is against the law .

My Super Duper Letter

Dear  Fletcher's Family,
                                                                                    02/09/13

I truly believe that the Fletcher's family should build a factory on our courts.
Building a factory on our top courts would be great because It super to have a new playground. If we have new playground we will get to design it. It will keep us from getting fat and we will get healthy. We can look after ourselves
 if we have a playground.

Having a factory is good because there will be CCTV. If we get CCTV people won't steal our private things and our Chromebooks. Thieves will easily be found by seeing their faces through the camera.Would you want thieves to steal private things from you by sneaking in the school when nobody  is there? If we lose our chrome books we will lose our learning forever and ever .

Having a factory is fantastic because we might get free food from them. If we get free food our parents  won't have to pay for the food that they give us . We will have a lot of energy and we will be fit and healthy.

I truly believe that the Fletcher's family should build a factory on our courts.
If we have a factory on our school, our school we will be more cool because we willget a new playground,CCTV and free food.

Introducing The Tippy Tapp

WALT wash hands but using less
We made the tippy tap to waste less water because we are learning about Africa and that there is not a lot of water there. It took us 10 liters of water to wash our hands properly.In Africa there is not a lot of water there so if they use that much water they might run out of water. So if the can make a tippy tap they will be able to wash their hand properly.

Water Cycle Report



WALT write a report



I can plan my writing using a mind map
I can group my ideas under headings
I can group my ideas into paragraphs
I can write an introduction and a conclusion
I can introduce each paragraph by using a topic sentence
I can put material into my own words

This report is a factual report about water and what happens in the water cycle. Here is my report about the water cycle.




The water from the clouds comes down as rain when the cloud is too heavy then goes  on the surface of the ground. This is called precipitation  

The water soaks through the earth and through cracks in the earth. After it goes underground the water will store in the aquifer. Next if we need the water, the water goes up to the pump and goes to the house.
 


The water from the land gets heated by the sun.  Then the water  transforms into steam
. this is also called vapor. The steam goes up into the clouds from the trees or the plants or underground.




The vapor/steam goes up into the sky then it forms back into liquid,  after it turns  into  liquid it forms into clouds. If the clouds are heavy it starts to rain.


Finally, this is what happens in the water cycle.

The Grouchy Giraffe


Once there was a Giraffe named Groucho who hated pictures of  being happy. His only weakness was when he sees Mt Everest. He has always wanted to go there and be the first animal to climb it. He heard on the news that a man named  Edmund Hillary reached the peak of Mt Everest. Groucho wished that he was the animal that took Edmund up. He said to himself ,"I am going to be the first giraffe to climb Mt Everest."
Every day he would jog and drink lots of water. He tried climbing small hills but always ending up tumbling and rooling . He had cuts from vines and always felt cold. He thought that he will never make it. Other animals laughed at him except for his friend Vino the eagle.  Vino said , "it's okay Groucho, I will help you and I will fly over you and look for a safe path, if you get tired I will find a place for you to stay while you are away from home."
Then after Groucho got a message from his Iphone and it said,"hey son it's me your mum your sisters and I will come to your house and we would like to see you climb the peek of MT Everest." Then he was emmberrast.

Palm Sunday


WALT Passion Sunday. Passion Sunday is when Jesus went to Jerusalem and people were putting palm leaves on the ground for Jesus. It was like Jesus was a superstar.  I wrote a postcard to Trinity , Tia  because they are my friends. I hope you enjoy it


Dear Trinity and Tia                                                                                                                                                  

Did you know that Jesus came to Jerusalem on a donkey from Mt Olives? How did Jesus know that there was a donkey with a colt. A colt is a horse that us under four years old. I think it must have been God's power or God's only son . When his donkey went past the road to Jerusalem everyone was like screaming "Hosanna." It smelled okay but it was so loud and people were putting their clothes on the ground and putting palm leaves on the ground so the donkey won't step on the rocks. I started copying I placed palm tree leaves and this day couldn't get any better. I hope everything is going good back in Room Five. Write back soon.


Love Chaim

Germination


We have been learning about germination is like a timeline but for a plant . A life of a plant is like people because they are born as a seed and that makes a plant different from a person. Now I will tell you about the process of germination. First you plant the seed  in the soil or dirt . Then the seed coat breaks open. After the radicle (the first root) comes out to find  water and nutrients for the plant. Next the Plumule (the first shoot) comes out to find light and that's when the first leaves come out. If you still put water and have sunlight the panzy will grow bigger. If you do not give that plant water, sunlight  and soil, that plant will not grow or it will die.
