Aztecs report 5th Class made projects and clay pieces of Aztecs Gods. We started learning about the AZTECS on the 7 of December on Friday and started making our clay statues on Thursday. The first thing we did on the AZTECS was projects about different things like AZTECS GODS, AZTECS RELIGION, AZTECS BUILDING ETC. When we finished the project we presented it to the whole class and many people learnt a lot of stuff from all the projects they presented. The next week on Thursday we started making flat clay pieces to make AZTECS GODS on it and let it dry. Then on Friday they were all dry and ready to take home. But before we took them home Luke our teacher took a picture of all of them together and all of us around it. Here is a picture of what it looked like. And this is one of the AZTECS GODS they all worshipped. The project i did on the AZTECS was AZTECS RELIGION with Rihanna and Hamza. This is one of the pictures i used for my project. This is another picture from my AZTECS project about Human Sacrifices. And this is the end of my AZTECS REPORT. y Michael :) Dale Treadwell dino talk Dale Treadwell came to visit our school and he talked about dinosaurs. Dale came on the fifth of December and showed us a big dinosaur.In this photo he is bringing out a toy dinosaur and a little girl is running away! Haha. Then he showed us a really old stone and we touched it. In this picture he is holding a chained up dinosaur that roars. ROAAAAAAR! This is a picture of the rock he showed us. Hope you enjoyed any questions? Ukulele lessons In our Ukulele lesson,we learned how to play the song “ hey jude” and also we learned “riptide”. Fergus taught us. He was very good at it and he is brilliant at teaching as well. In this picture, you can see our classmates warming up to play the ukulele and you could also see half of Fergus in background. In this picture we are listening to the one, the only, Fergus!. He was telling us that he was going to China for a concert, and that he wouldn't come to our school for three weeks and that another “professional” would come in, his name was Andy. He was really funny but he wasn't as good as us.(obviously,no one can beat us, including Fergus).HOPE YOU GUYS ENJOYED.
Recycling Week, Junk Art day On the 16th of November it was Junk Art Day. Many students brought in junk art to school for the competition. Every student had the option to compete. And every student who competed made a unique piece of junk art. We had stuff like robots, monsters, boats, trains & lots more. Here is a photo of all the children in Alder Class who competed. All of the green schools were involved in the judging. By: Sebastian & Anisa Get on your dancing/running shoes!
