Chapter Chat

Today I have finished my Chapter Chat, I made a poster with simple German words and sentences. I'm really happy with what I have done because I have put a lot of effort into making it the best I can. I drew pretzels in the background because it is a thing that Germany is famous for ( and they are very good! ). I wrote all of the words and put them in speech bubble as if it was words that someone was saying them. The hardest part when making my poster was drawing the pretzels because it was a very confusing shape, but I think I did alright. Overall I'm really happy with I have done because I have put my best effort into making this poster the best that I can, o that's why I rate my work a Supernova!

Chapter Chat

Today I finished my Chapter Chat task, I made a gas mask. The reason I made a gas mask is that, in the book that we are reading, Code name Bananas, they needed to have something to cover Gertrude the gorilla's face and one of the options was a gas mask but unforcedly she didn't like it. This task was really fun because I really wanted to make it wearable and in the end, I managed just that! I made a see-through gap for the eyes then added green clear plastic to give it that gas mask look. Overall I'm really happy with what we have done because I have put a lot of time and effort into making this mask the best I can ( which I think looks really good ) so that's why I rate it a Supernova effort!

Letter of the week

Today I have finished my Letter of the Week slide, the letter was Q. When I started I had no idea what I was going to do because there are not a lot of words the start and end with Q. I really struggled with the task where I had to find a word that ends with Q because there was a lot of words on websites that I had never heard before so I didn't want to put any of them on my slide. I really like a simple type of theme for the background because its a bit chaotic when there is too much going on so I just went with a cool picture of a sunflower ( Which I think is really pretty ). I really like my sentence for this week because it has a lot of Q's in it and it actually makes sense. Overall I'm really happy with what I have done because I put a lot of time and effort into making this slide the best that I can, and I can't wait until next weeks letter!



Chapter Chat

Today I have finished my Chapter Chat, I made a turtle with a laundry basket as it's shell. By the time that I drew my turtle in my draft and I really wanted it to be different than everyone else. So I made it kind of 3D by adding layers and layers of thin cardboard on top of each other to get the 3D effect, I think that it really made it different in a good way. After that, I thought that it looked really cute so for some reason I added an angle halo with some glittery paper and I'm really glad I did that. Now we have just read the part of the book where the turtle comes in but by that time I have already finished my work and the turtle in the book is a bit different than mine like it has a weaved basket shell rather than a plastic shell. Overall I'm really happy with what I have done because I think that my work is a Supernova effort!

Case Closed

Today we completed our crime scene investigation. I took us around 6 weeks to come this far and we are really happy with what we have accomplished. We found out that the thief was Mrs Taaffe because all of our evidence and clues had lead up to her, and finally this morning she admitted it. While trying to solve this investigation we have had to learn how to lift fingerprints, match fingerprints and connect all of our evidence to someone, and in the end, we compleated that goal. Today we had got Mrs Taaffe had come into the Whetu team because we had a few questions to ask her, so Mrs Taaffe told us the story: She went to school to get some work done when she needed an HDMI cable so she came to the Whetu team to get out one, but on her way to getting it she saw the milky ways and she loves mini chocolates so she got the HDMI cable and some milky ways and ran off in a rush because she thought that someone was coming. We have forgiven Mrs Taaffe for what she has done al long as she will bye us another bag of Milky Ways.

Letter of the week

Today I have finished my LOTW task, the letter was E. When I first thought of the letter E I thought that it would be really easy but when I started thinking of words my mind went blank. I'm really happy with my sentence that I have done because it's a bit weird but it makes sense to me, and I have added a lot of E's to it. I always find it really hard to think of ideas for my presentation because I want to do something different every week, so this week I had pictures of elephants and emus and decorated them with hats, and headpieces, it took a while but I think that it paid off. Overall I'm really happy with what I have done because I think that I have put my best effort into making this slide the best that I can!

Letter of the week

Today I have compleated my LOTW slide, the letter was C. This letter was pretty easy because I could think of lots of words straightway like: cat, cow & car. When I was up to doing the background I was a bit stumped on what to do but, in the end, I put a camel and a sun to go with a desert theme.  I really like my sentence with lots of C's in it because I think that I used lots of c's and it made sense which most of the time they sound a bit weird. Overall I'm really happy with what I have done because I think that I have put a lot of time and effort into making it the best that I can.
