Animal classification

Today we learned  about how animals are classified into group. Animals are either vertebrates  or invertebrates ( which meas they have a spine or the don't)

Invertebrates are animals like Jellyfish , crabs ,insects  and octopus.
Vertebrates are put into five groups. They are mammals, birds and reptiles ad amphibians, Mammals have fur or hair and give birth to live young, Birds have feathers and lay hard, Reptiles are cold blooded and lay soft eggs, Amphibians breath through their skin and need help to keep their skin moist . Fish breath through gills and have fins.


Mammals: tiger, cow, spider monkey, pig, bull

Birds: sparrow, trumpeter, puffin, kea, bee eater

Reptiles : crocodile, turtle, tuatara , gecko , komodo dragon

Amphibians: salamander, caecilian, frogs, toads, newts.

Fish: guppy, shark, catfish, trenchfish, snapper 

Sketch pad 5.0

Today we did book reviews on our favorite  book. We tried google drawings but Mrs Gleeson found a another website called sketchpad 5.1. My book was Awful Auntie by David Walliams. My favorite character was an furious owl called Wagner so I had to find an owl, So I pressed cartoon and straight away I found a very good cartooned owl so I put that on my blank page. 5 minutes to go Mrs Gleeson said. I was done already, all the class needed to do now was put it on our book review. We all put it on our book review oops! instead of coming out with one owl it came out with four! I think sketch pad 5.1 made a mistake so I rated that website 6 and a half out of ten.  https://sketch.io/sketchpad/

Shared lunch

Today we had a very healthy class lunch to encourage a balanced diet. I brought what I call "pasta pie ". I loved the foods. People brought kebabs,  cheese and crackers, sushi, pear, fruit salad, 20 mandarins and soda stream fizzy water. Shared lunch rocks! I wish we could have it every month.

Blessing Children

Today our group for religious education (me Bella, Eli and Setaita)  did a video about  children being blessed in the kingdom of god . All children get treated equally and none get treated badly. The charterers are  The child: Bella, The Dad: me, Jesus: Setaita , The naughty disciple : Eli.
Here's a video.

Hansel

Today  for drama we split into groups to do performances about hilarious alternative endings to Hansel and Gretel. We got given pieces of paper to help us to make the rest of the performance. We got picked to do ours first and I didn't feel nervous as the other performances I've done in the past because I've done so many performances this term that I feel good about it.

Production

On  Wednesday 20th and Thursday 21st we did a school production . The whole school participated. Our classes were Barbies and Kens. I was really nervous when the days came to perform  but we did well. I wish there was a production every term! We used the song " I'm  a barbie girl in a barbie world".  I learnt  a bit a about dancing  and also learnt that dancing is hard.
