My project was on beans and how long it took different varieties of beans to grow.

I got most of my information from the Wikipedia but I got some from a bean web site.

I did most of it by myself but Dallas helped me stick everything onto my cardboard.

I have learnt that beans should be planted in late Summer.

My favourite fact about beans is that some beans pods can be eaten.

I think that the next time I do a project I could get it done faster and add props to go along with it.

Outdoor Education

WALT: set up and sail optimist yachts.

The first thing we had to do was get dressed into our clothes that we we're going  get wet. After that we got the yachts and started to assemble them after a quick lesson. 

Every part of the assembling of the boat we had to do was really easy except when the booms rope wasn't tight enough.

My favourite part about the optimist yachting was probably capsizing the whole boat even though my eye got whacked by the boom. I really  liked optimist yachting and I look forward to doing it again.

Fitness and Nutrition with Karen

WALT: keeping ourselves fit and healthy.

For term 3 we have been learning about keeping ourselves fit and healthy with Karen Cross.We did workouts that she turned into games.One of my favourite things about the sessions was that we played games but still did fitness. She taught us about how to keep fit and always do regular workouts.In nutrition we have to not have drink lots of fizzy or probably not any at all. 

Things that I didn't know before we did fitness.

You have to drink at least eight litres of water a day.

Stretch before and after your workouts.

Workout regularly.

Eat and drink good after a workout.

Bananas are good for you before and after your workout.

Writing

WALA spring.            

This is my poem about spring.

Sunshine evaporating the cold days

Pollen falling everywhere causing sniffles and sneezes

Random weather all the time

In between winter and summer

Nature will start to grow

Grass is gettin greener by the minute.

We have made butterflies using symmetry and we decorated them with dye.

India celebrates spring with a festival of colours where they throw powdered colours with water 

at each other.

Maths

WALT: Find the average temperature for the five day forecast.

To find the average temperature for the five days I had to add all the temperatures together.

The total of all the temperatures is  47 degrees Celsius.

The next step is to divide the total by the number of days.

47 divided by 5 is 9.4

The average temperature is 4.7 degrees Celsius.
