Polar Bear Moment in Time

L.I To use the five senses of your poem.

We wrote a poem about this polar bear when this man was  in a plastic box trapped, in our poem we used five senses, the fives senses are see-visual, taste-gustatory, tactile-feel, auditory-sound and olfactory-smell but we did I wonder rather than smell, for this poem of the polar I show a example like, I felt the goose bumps traveling down my spine, taunting me to not make no sudden movements as the tension slowly ate me.

I enjoyed this activity because I got to use the five senses to write our poem.

Sound Focus – The Code

L.I To figure out the different sounds for ‘ea’

For this activity I created a DLO explaining the sound of words for example, br-ea-d could be heard as br-eh-d, this reason is when two vowels join together it could make different sounds for words, the other words I learnt that could make different sounds st-ea-k because could also be heard as st-ay-k, since the two vowels are put together. Same could be for m-ea-t because it can be heard as m-ee-t rather than the food meat.

I enjoyed this activity because I learnt sounds.

Which One Doesn’t Belong| Summer Learning Journey

This week I did a task called which one doesn’t belong, this activity shows shapes that you need to think of a reason on why it does not belong there. As long as you have a reason on why it doesn’t belong there it is okay. There is more than one that doesn’t belong with the shapes. For example of how this activity worked, there is a triangle and a square, the triangle has three sides and the square has four sides, so this saying what is the difference of each shape. At the end I made my own shape poster, for my challenge to you is to tell me what is the differences between the shapes.

This activity was interesting because this my first time on doing this type of activity.

It was alright my beat but I felt that I would to spice my beat up a little. After this change the beat to me sounded better than before.

What Happened Down the Stairs?

LI: To understand the 5 senses can be used to strengthen a description

Our challenge was to co construct a text using the olfactory, auditory, gustatorial, visual and kinethetic senses to describe the story behind the shoes in this image. This time we were able to speak and sat facing our partners. 

Once we had completed this part of the challenge we joined together with another group to share our writing and make sure what we had written made sense and had met the language feature challenge.

I found this activity because we were able to communicate with our partner but the shoes story we weren’t able to talk to eachother.
