Hat Parade

On March the 29th we started to make hats for a random partner, with Miss Francisco. We were given materials to make them but first we had to design them. Some people made top hats, others made caps and some people made masks. It was a bit difficalt at points but in the end all the hats looked magnificent! On the 30th of March we made a video of our hat parade. We had individual photos and we each had a movie about why we made the has the way we made them. I think that everybody would agree that it was fantastic!

Simple Machines Scavenger Hunt

The other day 3/4A did a simple machines scavenger hunt. There were about 6 groups.
each group got 1 camera and 1 check list. In my group there was Roger and Emily. We had to go around the school and find thing that involve levers, inclined planes, wheels and axels wedges screws and compound machines. Our group found everything on the list and finished just in time. We also got to take turns of taking photos with the flip camera.

Science Works

On Thursday the twenty-fourth the Grade Threes and Fours went to scinece works.

First my gorup went to the sewage pumping station. It was really fun because there were these huge ramps and my whole group was running down the ramps.

I liked the sports works the most because I liked racing Cathy Freeman.

In my group I had one adult and her name was Anne. The other kids in my group are Summer,Jacinta,David,Kelsey,Torbin and Joel.

We had a lesson about simple machines. The lady there showed us all the simple machines that we can use.

Simple Machines

We have been talking about gagets and gizmos. We have been talking about the simple machines. We made lego in groups and there were 6 or 5 groups. My name is Max and my group made lots of stuff like a really LONG machine and really small machine so that's what we are doing now.

Math Graphs

For the last 2 weeks our maths topic was graphs. We did all kinds of graphs like Pie graphs, tally charts and bar graphs. It was realy fun. I thought it was great. We got to choose our on topic for our graph. I chose to do a graph about people's favourite hobby.

Crazy Hair day

Today, the 11th of March, 2011, The whole school had crazy hair to fundraise for Leaukemia-cancer. We all had to donate a gold coin. 3/4A all had very crazy hair. Most of us had hairspray, some people made their own crazy hair inventions. We all took some photos of our crazy hairs. For example, I had pegs in my hair, Miss Jeffery had a pink wig, Alice had a beehive hairstyle. It was a pretty crazy day, and I think everyone thought it was great.

Today Grace gave ME a word to learn how to spell:

Is this really a word?! Looks like I better start doing my Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check homework for my test on Friday....

Technic Lego Constructions

During Feburary 3/4A made some kind of thing out of technic lego. There were six teams with four people in a team. Every team chose a name for there teams. One of the teams made a wind mill, Miss Jeffery made a wind mill out of technic lego aswell when she was little. It took realy long until we had to take a picture and then break the technic lego constructions. Lots of people didn't want to break their constructions but they had to because we had to give it to 3/4B to have a turn to make a thing from technic lego. It was sad for the people for the who wanted to keep there constructions, but I thought it was great. Wish you would give us a comment!
