My Inference Poster
In my classroom we have been learning what inferencing is and how you can inference as part of our reading. I have learn't how to inference and what it actually is. I used a site called eaesl.ly to make this poster.
Sculpture
For the past few weeks my classroom has been working on building sculptures using different materials to make a use out of them as part of our science. A sculpture is a three dimensional art using different types of materials in many different shapes and sizes to create a sculpture. First off we started to draw our ideas on a bit of paper to combine all of our ideas to make one sculpture. After that we had identified what we wanted to use such as colors, lighting, materials etc. We had to use are creativity skills to come up with a sculpture, I had came up with a creepy doll. I had used a cardboard box for the body, for the head I screwed up a few pieces of newspaper and taped it all together until it became a circle shape and covered it in this bandage type of material. Then for the arms I used the same material as I did with my head and sewed it all together to make these little fingers. Then I added another idea and made a little door which can open and you can store anything that you want. For the face I used buttons for the eyes, and then for the mouth I cut a bit of beaded jewelry and made a smile shape, and then for the hair I just used a wig and trimmed it until it was the right length. Then I just glued a knitted flower on her head and stuck some little jewels on her body. I have learn't that you can make a use and turn something boring like a piece of junk to something fascinating and interesting.

Slam Poetry
Bullying
I hang my head as I walk by
I hear the names, I wanna cry
I just wish you would let me be
The pain you cause, you can not see
I talk to mum, I talk to dad
About the reasons why i’m sad
They can never understand it fully
The pain inside from being bullied
I won't give up, without a fight
I know what's wrong, and I know what's right
I don't want to ask you twice
Why don't you just please be nice
If you're causing too much drama
Life will get you with its karma
One day when your old and gray
You’ll look back upon that day
You called me names and made me blue
Made me cry so shame on you
Ill stay strong hold my head up high
Just like a bird
Watch me fly!
My class has been writing slam poems for the last couple of days. We chose something that makes us feel emotionally strongly and personal to us that comes from our heart, and I chose bullying. Some of us had presented and it was hard for alot of us (including me).
