Tech - Pewter casting

\

Today at tech we finishing of our workbook that had the designs and people we were thinking of giving it to. I have made my choice of who to give it to and decided to pick my mum. The design I picked to give to her was a heart. We are now tracing our design onto a piece of wood to cut it out using a special type of machine. After cutting our design out of the wood we put a same size wood one on each side to hold the wood for after they pour the melted medal in. Next week hopefully I will be up to putting the string into the piece of medal to finally finish my design. It is the second week of our tech session and surprised that we are nearly finished. I am looking forward to next week to finish my design and to give it to my mum. 

Dialogue - Fake Phone texting

Today we used dialogue to hook in the reader and to practice using our punctuation in conversations. We went on a site to make the messages look like people texting on an Iphone. We thought about the character's names and what they're going to talk about. My characters are Billy and James who enjoys playing my favorite game Fortnite. I have enjoyed  learning about dialogue and is eager to put something like this in my narrative.

Body Systems - Parts of your body

This activity shows me assembling the bones to the right part of the body. We have been learning about the 13 different body systems and what their jobs are. To test our learning we gave our self a challenge to try place the right bones in the right place. I successfully put it in the right place with only 28 attempts. I found this challenge fun and think this was a good exercise to expand our knowledge about the human body. Next time my goal is to try put it in the right place without making any mistakes.
