LI: To follow the instructions to make your own origami diya (diva lamp).
The photo above shows my origami diya (diva lamp). Our first challenge was to watch the video that shows how to fold an origami diya (diva lamp). Before we could start we needed to use a ruler to measure a 20cm square piece of paper to make our own origami square. I found this challenging because because it was very heard to do some steps.
I found this activity fun also because I got to collaborate with my group.
LI: To use your smart searching skills to find out what Diwali is and how people celebrate around the world.
Our challenge was to write create a DLO that tells others what Diwali is and how people celebrate around the world. Something I found interesting was the nice patterns that were used, also the colors were very interesting since they only use bright colors for there designs.
I found this activity fun because I learnt facts about a new celebration.
LI: To find and summarise the story behind the poem.
The main characters of this poem are Sir Ralph
(Captain of the boat), Abbot of Aberbrothock (The owner of Inchcape Rock). This poem is about a person named Abbot of Aberbrothock and placed a bell. Another person named Sir Ralph wanted to cut off the bell because Aberbrothock was being blessed to much. Then Sir Ralph cut off the bell and went off to steal more treasure to become rich. Then the weather became windy and rainy. Then his boat crashed into Inchcape Rock, the waves rushed side to side on his boat. The last thing he heard was the sound of the devil ringing his knell.
Our challenge was to unpack the story behind the 17 verses of the poem Inchcape Rock by Robert Southy. The part I found interesting was the sound of the bell under the seas because it was very strange to hear.
I found this activity very interesting because of the new story I heard about Sir Ralph.
