My Walk Around My Community! Spring Learning Journey

Hi Bloggers,

It was the holidays and I got bored so I had another look at Spring Learning Journey and I saw this activity  where you have to go for a little walk around your community and write what you see, hear and smell and try adding 3 things under See, smell and hear.

And so I took out my scooter and off I went.

I saw the beautiful flowers and this big bush of green and purplish leaves which was so beautiful! One more thing I saw was rubbish on the ground which I didn’t like. I heard some insects and also birds chirping in the trees. There one more thing I heard which was people talking in houses. What I smelt was this disgusting smell from all the rubbish and some yuck smells from the dirty water on the ground. But the smell of the flowers was amazing!

Why don’t yoiu go on a walk in your community and list what hear, smell and see.

Mincraft Garden

Today I was challenged to make a spring garden in Minecraft Education Edition.

First, I doug one layer into the ground I then filled it with dirt.

After that I added seeds to the soil changing the type of seed each time so I was creating a pattern.

Lastly, I waited for the seeds to sprout and once they had grown I had a Beautiful spring garden in Minecraft.

Creating a Geometrocity in Room 22

In the last two weeks of term we worked on identifying 3D shapes and understanding how a 3D shape can be flattened, being called a shape net. This led to creating a Geometrocity!

The Geometrocity involved identifying and naming 3D shapes, planning their own grids on A4 paper to what shops/layout/shapes they would use then the final step was to create the actual grid using A3 paper and 3D shapes as buildings to add to our Room 22 Geometrocity. This project also really helped our fine motor skills and perseverance having to concentrate to put together the buildings.

Check out the photos next of how it all unfolded, there was such a variety of buildings…. motorbike shops, horse shops, parks, gyms, takeaway outlets, jail, Police station, The Warehouse, Target plus a whole heap more!

Ever thought about creating your own city? or have you used 3D shapes to create something else?
