Cybersmart Challenge 1

 

Limerick

 In my class we have been learning how to write limerick poems. At first I found this really challenging but then I kinda got the hang of it. In a limerick poem it has 5 lines. Line 1,2 and 5 have 7-10 syllables and line 3 and 4 should have 5-7 syllables. The first line of a limerick poem usually is "There once was a". Also in a limerick poem the first 2 lines rhyme an then the two after that need to be quite random and they need to rhyme with each other. then the last line needs to rhyme with the first line.

Book week

 This week at my school we had book week. Book week is a fun week where 5 golden tickets are hidden around the school and in the library there is a jar full of gummy worms and you can guess how many there are. Today was book character day which is when everybody dresses up as a character from a book. Me and my friends did a Alice in Wonderland theme costumes. I was Alice. This week we also had wacky waka Wednesday. For wacky waka Wednesday you dress up in your wackiest outfit but you have to dress in your waka colour. Mine is yellow. On Tuesday Mrs Costello the school librarian did a book giveaway and you could go to the library and get as many books as you wanted. Also as a part of the book week tradition you and your class have to create a cool designed door. Our theme was Peter Pan. After the doors are all finished they get judged. My classes door display won second place for team b. Here are some pictures.

My story

 A few weeks ago I had to watch three short films about different things. The first one was about a giant dinosaur,The other one was about some sort of video game thing and the last one was about these two men walking up a big mountain. We had to pick one of them and write a story about it. I chose the one of the men climbing up the mountain. Here is my story.

My novel bookmark

 A few days ago my class had to go into our school library and pick out a novel that we would like to individually read.  I choose the book the enchanted wood by Enid Blyton. We have a whole list of different activities to do that involve our story. This was one of the activities. I had to design a book mark that had somthing to do with my book. My book has a forest in it so I did forest things on mine. Here is the book mark. (It has been printed out and it is getting laminated)

My avatar painting

                                        Kia Ora bloggers~! 

                                    This week I have created this (interesting looking) piece of art.

Before I did my painting I went onto faceyourmanga.com and I created an avatar that looks something like me. After I made my avatar I got lines ruled up on a a3 piece of paper and then we had our avatar printed out. And then for the hard part! I had to draw my avatar out on the paper but to make it harder I had to make it an enlargement from my printed out avatar. So you had to make sure that you drew it inside the right squares. Then we had to move on to the painting part of it! The painting was pretty fun apart from the struggle to make the perfect hair colour. I finished my painting with a few ups and downs and as you can see art is definitely not my sweet spot. 

 

                                       Do you enjoy art? Have you ever tried to enlarge a picture?
