Art

This is my art work that I worked on for 2 weeks during the time we were doing the Ancient Egypt topic. It is filled with hieroglyphics and has a picture of an old Egyptian King.

The hieroglyphics says something different in each column...
1st column (on the left) says - Ashlings Art
2nd column - Unicorn Power
3rd column - I am Divergent
4th column - wifi and Pizza
5th column - (bunch of random letters)
6th column - Zebras and giraffes
7th column - Gymnastics hehe
8th column - Candy-floss yum
9th column - Hey there Milo (milo is my dog incase you didn't know)

I like my art work because it actually says stuff instead of just a bunch of random letters everywhere.

Is your hieroglyphic art work say something? ;)

Egypt Topic

This term we have been learning about Ancient Egypt. I have learned a lot about the Pyramids of Giza because I did my double page spread on it. I also learnt a lot of other stuff like mummies and how the Egyptians lived. I think I learnt the most from when we had to do the double page spread because I have now memorised a lot about the Pyramids. The activities that I enjoyed the most was Egypt week. Where everyone was put in a group and given a topic, they had to make a powerpoint on it and make a fun game up to play with the whole class.

What topic did you learn about the most?

Gymnastics

This term we have been learning gymnastics at Narnville. There is 3 stations at gymnastics, we get put into groups and rotate around the stations. My favourite part was when my group went to the station with the inflatable tumble track. It was alot of fun because if you were experienced you got to do back handsprings and other tricks like that. I honestly don't think I actually improved on anything but it was fun anyway.

Egyptian Mummies

Today we learnt about Ancient Egypt Mummies. I learnt during reading groups. I think that I will remember about what I learnt today because it was really interesting. Things that help me remember things that I learnt be doing a revision now and then.  

Book groups

This term we have been doing book groups. I was reading dairy queen, with Maddy, Xara and Aimee. Most of the time are conversations went really well and we were one of the first groups to unlock crackers. But now and then we would go a little off topic and end up talking about something completely unrelated to the book. One of the things I gained from this experience was how to communicate with other people in a way that I haven't before. Overall I think that it was a really fun experience and I would love to do it again.



 

The magic faraway tree

by Enid Blyton

When I was younger, I loved to read a book called the magic faraway tree. It is about 2 girls and a boy. They are all siblings. One day they go into the woods and find a giant tree and start to climb up it. They find all sorts of friends on the way that have houses in the tree. They go on loads of different adventures. Every night, one of my parents would read it to me. I found it really funny. I read it when I was about 5.

My Holidays

In the holidays I went to Australia for a week. I arrived on Wednesday and we spent most of our day at the beach and then went to get frozen yogurt. On Thursday we went shopping for new clothes at Westfield Miranda.

 Friday I went to my friend Jasmine's house for a sleepover to help her sort out her birthday party the next day. On Saturday I went to watch jasmine play her soccer game. Then we got back to house and got dressed for the party. Once all the people arrived we went to a place in the city called FX. Which is a place where there are rooms with trampolines! Trampoline floors, trampoline walls, foam pits and trampoline dodgeball courts. It was really fun. When we got back home, we had pizza for dinner. Then we went in her pool and spa. After that we watched a movie and then went to bed. On Sunday we woke up and had breakfast. Then we went on her trampoline for a bit.

After I went back home for a bit, before I had to go to my other friend Charlotte's house for a sleepover. When I got there we made some bracelets and played on our ipads. Then we went out to dinner for Thai, it was really good. We got to sleep. Then Monday morning we got up and made a videostar. Then we went shopping and got some new clothes and rubber bands to make more bracelets. Then I went home and slept for a while.

On Tuesday my sister, mum and I went in the city and did some more shopping for clothes. I went to my old school to say goodbye to all my friends.

On Wednesday morning we had lunch with my grandma and grandpa. We then went to the airport and went back to New Zealand.
