Dance
about different Angular shapes, Curve shapes, Twisted shapes and Straight shapes. We also were learning about free flow and bound flow. Free flow is when you move your body like rubber and bound flow is when you move with all of the muscles, its basically like a robot move. After that we had to get into a pair and make three different shape, a square, a triangle and a circle. I worked collaboratively with Sanujan.

Dance
Toady we did dance with Miss Anderson it was her first time ever teaching dance we learning about warm ups. A warm up is a little exercise that stretches your muscles so your blood cells can flow though you.
We had to find different warm up moves. I really liked doing the jumping jacks because it is one of the simplest and easiest moves.
Next time I need to practice my burpees because I never really do push ups.

Text to text

Text to world

Text to self

Something I have read or watched that is like this is...
|
Something I know about that is like this is...
|
My reaction to this story is...
|
Something that we have read which is similar to this is called the Red Poppy and also Charge of the Light Brigade.
We think that these are same because they both include bombs, people getting hurt and also of people dying
|
North Korea and USA are getting nuclear weapons especially bombs.
|
We really enjoyed listening to this story and we also feel so sad for the main character's death. We would love to hear more of these stories.
|
This is a google document based on making connection. first Miss Kirkpatrick read us a book called when the wind blows.After Miss Kirkpatrick read us the book we had to go off and find a document called making connections. We had to do text to text text to world and text to self.

Personification
Miki and I worked together to give the days of the week human qualities. This is called personification. Personification is when you use words to give things without a heartbeat a life.
