Australia facts SLJ

Hi blogging team

 We have been getting ready for the summer learning journey. We have to complete 60 activities. Every week we have to do at least two blog post if not we would probably not win. You have over the summer holidays to complete all of your tasks. There are bonus points after each task. If you finish all of your tasks you start commenting on other peoples blog and if you comment you get 2 extra points. 

 The activities I did to get started was that you had to pick a country and find facts about your country that you chose. By the way I chose the country Australia. Here are my facts:

  • Australia is an island country located deep in the Pacific Ocean (to the west of New Zealand). It is made up of 6 states. 
  • The population is 24.2 million people. 
  • The main cities are Canberra (Capital), Sydney, Brisbane, Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide. 
  • There are 14 national holidays. Australia Day is celebrated on 26 January. 
  • There is one official language - English. 
 Blog you later.

This is my painting  Hi bloggers in week seven we made a art piece of a native or endemic animal to New Zealand. This is a fairy tern filled with squares then split it into triangles.  The materials that I used were:  acrylic paint coloured paint art brushes paper  sketching pencils These are the steps we did:  first we got our piece of paper and painted it with white acrylic paint and then let it dry.  Second we went on our Chromebook and chose the photo that we wanted of the animal and put the photo that we wanted on to a google doc and traced it.  Third we printed the google drawing out in a larger form then traced it on a larger piece of paper.  Once we had traced it onto the piece of paper we drew geometric shapes on to our animal.  Then we painted in our shapes to finish.   Probably  one thing that I liked was the colours that I used. If I could change something I would make...

Up in the Air HI bloggers, for this activity we had to do a compare and contrast between Amelia Earheart and Jane Batten. I didn't actually know about Jane Batten so I found it interesting finding out about her, though I did know a little bit about Amelia Earheart becasue I had seen her on a night at the museum. Here is my compare and contrast.  https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1TCXqlcdoOEjGBP_xEHf0j8F6ZvRXLPJt3UvpNL-lBvw/edit One Small Step For Man In this activity we had to write any kind of poem we like, but you had to imagion that you were Neil Armsrong and you were first to step on the moon. You also had to include what it felt like. I chose to write a free verse poem because it is my favourite kind. I like to write free verse poems because there are no limits. Here is my poem. First landing Speeding through the sky day and night Only hoping for success Hooray Hooray we made it Then it was time I stepped slowly down the ladder I ...
