L.I to do a smart comment. I watched, "The boy who lost his mind." by Pt England. It was amazing because I like how they made it like the kids were doing strange things. Once again it was amazing.

Commenting

L.I to help others using comments.

Supply & Demand

LI: to learn Supply and Demand
Supply is how much there is available of the product. If the supplies price increases the company will make or build more of the product for the people. Demand is how much of the product people want. If the price increases, not as much people want it. Our task was to make a slide explaning Supply and Demand. We then played a game which was called "I Supply, You Demand". Basically we were a company and we had to make money by picking an amount of stock and choosing the price of the product.

Venn Diagram Witches

L.I to Novel study the witches.
For reading we are doing a novel study on Roald Dahl books. For novel study I was reading the withes. For the witches we had to do different activities. I have done the character venn diagram for the grand high witch, boy and the grandmother. I had to say what their personality's are and what they are like.

Paper Plane Task

LI: to use statistical and scientific methods to study the effect of wing span and area on lift.
We had to make 12 planes of the same plane but we have had to change one variable. A variable is a feature of an object that can change between different versions of the object. For example: some variables in chairs could be height, width, depth, weight, materials, strength, colour. An independent variable is unchanged by other variables. These are usually controlled in experiments to see if they make changes in other variables. We had to decide which independent variable to change to measure the dependent variable. We had to create a spreadsheet to record variables and results. We also had to create planes with measured variations in your chosen independent variable

Figurative Examples

L.I to investigate figurative language. We had to pick three characters from the slide that we created of characters that we picked. We had to pick three and then write a: simile, metaphor, hyperbole and personification. We fist started with a literal sentence to start what were going to describe about the character. This was figurative language. We had to learn about figurative language to do the task.
