Stylophone LOCKDOWN!

 

This is my new instrument its called a Stylophone this is an old instrument that a famous artist called David Bowie used to play this in his band, plus the Beatles and my uncle use to play it as well and many more artist's. This instrument works with a pen with a metal end on it to play tunes. I know two songs on this, one is called "Im Blue" and "Happy Birthday". When I first saw this I didn't know what it was, I thought it was a Piano and it looked like one as well. 

This amazing instrument was made in 1967 and was made in England. Have you ever heard or seen one of these instruments before? Please let me know in the comments.

Time travel!

 Today I am making a time Capsule so at if any time the school gets demolished in about 50 years people might find this capsule about me and my classmates. The hole reason about time capsules is so people can track you done and know what your about. The most important thing is your address, phone number and name. I cant show you my work but Ill show you what a time capsule is.What I learnt about Time Capsules is that sometimes they can be very very old and some of them could of been put in 2 years ago . My question is have you hid or found or even heard of a Time Capsule.Oldest US Time Capsule Opened - ABC News

Emily carr

Emily Carr is a Canadian artist for our art work. The art work we did was complicated first we had to make a 2 or 3 coloured background with sponges the colours I used were Orange and Yellow first I put yellow on and then orange. Then we waited for a week and then drew trees and outlined them on paper. We were going to use vivid but then we used black paint because vivids dried to quickly. Have you made trees like this before?

Is it true surely not

Today for are reading. We have been learning if it is true or false by reading an article. The article is called Tree Octopus. After we read the article we had to make a poster about how to tell if you were reading something that's fake. I liked this reading because we had to do more than one task. Another thing I enjoyed was reading the article because at first I thought it was true.The other thing was making a design for my True or False poster. My question for you is have you found a fake website online and have you tried to do anything about it? I hope you enjoyed reading my blog post and if this poster helps its free to use.

Emily Carr?

 On Thursday me and my classmates focused on this lady called Emily Carr. Emily Carr is a tree artist who draws landscapes and churches also. She also likes to write books as well. For the art that we did was trees we focused on trees around our school. I was proud of my tree.This was the tree I focused on.

I liked learning about Emily because the way she draws is different and cool.She does two different kinds of art ,she does real life arts and abstract arts.Emily Carr was born in 1871 on December 13th and died 1945 March the 2nd.If Emily Carr was born in 1871 I wonder where she got her paint tools. And what did she travel around in because I know she's got a caravan but if she wanted to move it what would she use?.

BANG BANG BANG!

 



Last term for ANZAC day my whole class made letters.The letters that we made we had to act like we were at Gallipoli and pretend that we were soldiers or nurses or just people who were on the boat when we were fighting first we had to write the letters out on our chromebook then write them on a piece of paper that's dipped in tea and coffee to make the paper look old.

Before we did this job ANZAC was very special but this writing task made it better. I learnt what boat they came on, where they stopped before they got there and what they sure when they got there.

I wonder what it would acturley be like to be at Gallipoli when the war was on. If I was there I'd just stay in the boat to be honest.

WIN THE RACES!

 2 weeks ago we had district athletics and to get into districts you have to finish your School athletics. I made it in for the High jump, long jump, 1000


m, 50m, and 80m.For all my races I got second for Long jump I got 1st and for High jump I tied with a friend.Since district was 2 weeks ago I got the results and I am going to Westcoast for 1000m and 80m and that's it.I liked districts because it was different to school athletic because I got to see other schools and compete against them.One thing I learnt about districts is to try my hardest and never give up have you made it to district or do you no someone who has?
