ANZAC day

By Anonymous -
Welcome back guys! 

Today I'm going to tell things I learned and discussed about ANZAC day. At dawn a commemoration (com-mem-moh-RAY-shin) so-called "Dawn Parade" is to remind us about the soldiers that protected us from other countries and gave us our freedom. They have some buildings and gravestones called obelisks. The people who fought at war march together, some go in wheelchairs if they can't walk. In the Vietnam War, some people who fought in Vietnam got sick because of the chemicals used in the war. Some people are alive from World War 1 and World war 2 today, maybe your (great) grandparents fought at World War 1/2. ANZAC is the troops of the New Zealanders and Australians fighting together in Gallipoli, Turkey.

Hello. Why are you checking Karl's blog you naughty boy/girl? Oh, if you want to read Karl's blog, how about an answer to little riddle... 1.Most of the wonders and mysteries lie here. 2.I can feel the intense pressure anywhere. 3.It is a very dark, dangerous and cold place. 4.Things must depend on their own or/and other things around it. 5.It is an extensive place. 6. Lots of things that are impossible also lie here. JK! This week we are working on using descriptive language by sharing our writing straight onto our blog.  The challenge we have is to describe a place using only six sentences. After reading the description you need to guess the place that has been described. It would really help if you say what clues helped you come to this conclusion. Also, did you answer my riddle? Hmmm?

Hey! Read this because it will have all you wished for! Just kidding, but over couple of weeks we have been working for a pink beanbag (The best you will ever have). We had to use persuasive writing to convince people to buy it (We are not selling for real.). Then we used Google Drawing to advertise the "most amazing beanbag". Here is mine.

Maths Strand Creation Project

Hey there, to you visiting my blog. On Thursday, which was yesterday, my school was creating a model only with toothpicks and Plasticine / Modelling clay. The ground material was cardboard. This task was a maths project, making a model of a tent. What we had to do was stick toothpicks with Plasticine to make a tent and also make sure it's stable. There were some challenges, especially when it came to cubes. But the fun factor was when pyramids made it stable. When I was doing that task I learnt a lot because one thing I learned is that it is difficult to put toothpicks inside Plasticine with a rather small volume, while on the other hand Plasticine big in size would shake the toothpicks which have a smaller density than the Plasticine. The shapes that I made were cubes and pyramids with bases square and triangular shaped. Plasticine was my problem because I fastened the toothpicks with Plasticine randomly big and small. It worked better when I used even amounts of Plasticine.
