Inquiry Walls

LI: Create wall planning for inquiry to plan on making a 10cm tall wall (max) and a 5cm thick wall to defend 2 helicopters from a mini pencil catapult.

This week for Mr wongs inquiry we made plans on how to build 4 different types of walls. On this presentation I created 4 plans on how to make a pallisade,stone wall,castle wall and a rammed earth wall. The pallisade wall is a wall of sticks or wood. A stone wall is a wall with plain rocks, which is hard to make with no sand or anything to stick it together. The Castle wall is a wall of rocks and wet sand in between to hold the rocks together. And the Rammed earth wall is a big chunk of sand shaped in a wall.

I created the palisade wall out of toothpicks and I created the Castle wall with rocks and sand. Ellenora had helped me create these walls and once we tested the walls our Castle wall (Rocks and sand) stood  stronger than our pallisade.

Debate Speech

Asian Dragon Or Manticore? 

LI: Write a debate speech on which creature would win a fight between an Asian dragon or Manticore

Here is my Debate Speech about the Asian dragon winning the fight and Reasons why the Asian Dragon would.

 “ The Asian Dragon would win a fight with a Manticore because the Asian dragon has control over water-related powers and their abilities to control atmospheres.”

 “The Asian Dragon can shapeshift into any sea animal possible, The manticore is able to sting any animal with it’s poisonous Scorpion tail if the Manticore is able to see their target.”

 “The Asian Dragon is able to control the weather that includes water like Rain,Tsunami’s and Flash Floods. The Manticore is able to fly above the Tsunamis and floods but the Asian Dragon could make it rain, causing the manticores wing to get dissolved.”

 “An Asian Dragon is able to bring good and bad luck to the appropriate people or animals that deserve it. The Asian Dragon would bring Bad luck to the Manticore which would give the Manticore a hard time. The manticores 2 rows of teeth give a strong bite but needs a close distance to reach their victim.”

 “ The Asian Dragon would win the fight because of its water powers, giving the Asian Dragon a high chance of winning the fight, the Manticore would get half the Chance of winning for having no useful powers except for it’s strange mix of creatures.This is why i think Asian Dragons Would win a fight“

Water Safety

LI: Create a sequence of swimming style and complete it.

This week we made our own swimming style, using the swimming skills we learned all of term 3. I made 2 sequences with sculling and streamlines. Our Swimming Sequences needed to have 5 things that we learned. It could be any style, But when we did it we weren't aloud to touch the bottom of the pool.

We had to swim from the middle of the swim school lane all the way to the deep end (the other side) of the pool. The teacher gave us a demonstration for us to complete so we understood how our sequences should be like.

Teachers sequence:
1.Mushroom float
2.T-Shape
3.Streamline kick
4. Rotation onto back
5.Sculling

Cybersmart Commenting

LI: Post a quality comment on a blog post.

This week for cyber-smart we focused on making a quality comment on somebodies blog. I commented on Nicole's Cheng I Sao presentation blog post because she has posted photos,videos,questions and a summary in her presentation. She has improved her Print Design rule use.

Nicole has done an amazing job writing and inserting pictures and information about Cheng I Sao in her summary. I understood that Cheng I Sao was a pirate and had gotten married with Cheng. Cheng Died in war and Since Marrying Cheng, Cheng I Sao became chief of over 70,000 pirates and was the richest pirate ever.

This weeks cyber smart was about posting quality comments on peoples blog including some recommendations and what you like about the bog post.
