DTE race track

23rd October 2020,

In class for the past Term and week we have been working on a Sphero code what has been completed at the moment:

1. Idea 1 of track
2. Code 1
3. Idea of better track
4. 1 layer of grass paint
5. Starting line
6. Road drawn out
7. Second coat of grass paint

This has been hard on all of us and some have stressed and have been struggling with making the track to ideas. But overall this team is going well.

Pictures available soon.

Volcano Project

 In science we are making model volcanoes. Here is the process  

Building it

To build it, we were given a milk bottle, a cardboard sheet, news paper, and a water and glue mixture. We were told to paper mache the milk bottle into a volcano shape. Easier said than done. I struggled for the entire period, making an only mediocre looking volcano, that I then was told looked good!? I don't know. Anyway, we left it to dry over the long weekend.

Painting it

Yesterday, we were painting it. There was a trolly full of art supplies and we were set loose. (*Insert evil grin here*) My group painted our volcano grey, before adding metallic paints, because, shiny, and then red spilling from the top as lava. It surprisingly looks good. I will now believe people telling me it looks good.

Introduction (Children of Blood and Bone)

In english we are stating to learn to write our essay. Today we did the Introduction. This is mine 

The novel Children of blood and bone by Tomi Adeyemi is about a girl who tries to save magic with her friends.
In the text, the relationship between Zelie and Yami helped me to understand the character of Zelie. This is because it showed me How when Zelie puts her mind to do something she will do it to her best ability, How she does not quit, and how determined she is to succeed.

Essay Planning

    In English we are looking our Essay for the story Children of Blood and Bone. We were put in groups to brainstorm about how we wanted to answer the Essay question, Describe a key event in the text. Explain how that event changed an important character. Here is what we came up with

    Our Key event is When Zelie, Tzain, and Amari entered into the ship fight and won, getting the sunstone.

    The character we chose was Amari, and the changes we found was: she becomes stronger, she becomes less afraid, the thought of the lioness was sitting inside her brain, and slowly subconsciously making her stronger and more powerful, she faced her fear of killing, and she stops being 'a prissy little princess, and becomes a fighter.
