Keynote

 BOSS. I'm BOSS!

BOSS is the four different types of patterns. Beauty, order, strength and survivability. We did a keynote about that when we went on our environment field trip. I have designed how my keynotes going to look like and what pictures are going on there. The first step for me was drag the folder into i-Photo. Next was to edit our photos -  crop, enhance with a magical wand, straighten or delete. I have selected photos for all the categories and liked them. I can't wait till it's finished because it's looking pretty good. Next is a technology challenge and I remember last time. We thought it was sturdy, but guess what, it was a big ball of fur! I wonder how I'm going to do? If I had a magic wand I should use my magic wand!!

BOSS person out!

Patterns in the Environment

Q: Do ya know what I did today?
A: I had lunch. Interesting fact you know, Joking!

Come join me. This morning we found our way to the Queens park, No Queens park. We went sight seeing in Paris. Now I'm just getting muddled up with this. We went sight seeing for patterns in the environment. We got into packs of two and I was with Clara, after we all headed of to go sight seeing in Paris. Not again! One of my favourites was in the winter gardens with a pack of beautiful flowers. The four main subjects to find were survivability, strength, beauty and order. 
Here's another:
Have you ever dropped a camera?
My friend did, he thought it broke but with a bit of luck  only one battery fell out.

See ya next time at Paris!!  

Sketching with Darryn

Welcome back and thanks for reading my blog!
"Err" went the sound of my HB pencil. There are different types of pencils. 2H, 6B. This time we were sketching chess pieces onto a piece of thick paper. I choose to draw two pawns, one close up and one further away. We all also learnt to shade in around overtaking places to make it look more realistic, and added on a horizon line through the middle to make it look like it was standing on a table or seat.
I'm not really an artist, but a mathematician and so I think I did a pretty good job!!
Leave a message to tell me what you think - thanks!

Bullseye

Hooray, First time winner, next time? 2 points, now 8, 16... and now 24!!! Woah! "No points for team 3" said Nicola. They had picked up their bean bags before they were tallied! The first hoop was worth 2, next was 4, after as 6 and final was 8. My team was neck and neck with the 1st team. My team was team two with only 6 points!!! Nooooo! Not this time. The fist team had won. Victory wasn't ours! "Team 1 with a total of 56, team 2 with a total of 46. The 3rd team with 27 and 4th team with 6. We had came second. I thought better luck next time. :)

Survivability

Hey, My group learnt about... Survivability! And what it can do. And that linked to our Concept Curriculum (patterns).Even the wild, animals and herds can protect themselves. We had to write down what things can stay alive from their prey. Zebras go in a herd and confuse prey with stripes! Snow tigers and rabbits hide in snow and pounce out to catch and what I call this one is a poo spider which looks like poo but is a spider and it attracts flies and it has some yummy dinner!! So camouflage means blending in with your surroundings. Darryn had Kfc for lunch and he said that it means (K)kids, (F)fattening, (C) centre!

Gross man!!                                                                              Confusing to you!

                                                                                                           

Winner & Loser

Thump!! the ants ran away, "earthquake"!!!

Max's King had fallen over on the checkered chessboard.  Max had given up and put his king down after a series of clash and bash. I was struggling to win against him after all of that. I wiped sweat off my face. "Phew"I said to myself. I shook his hand and carried on. I walked over to Katie with courage and said to her '' I challenge you". Katie was playing Daniel at that time and as soon as I got there the game was over, done and dusted. Katie put both colours (black & white) in behind her  back and I wanted black and I got black. Bits and pieces went and others did too. All I was doing was giving pieces to her.   

"Oh, gosh, not again, really. Two last pieces for me and heaps for Katie. Smash, went my last player, my pawn. She did this and that and these other move. My turn, Stalemate.
