Years 7 Leadership

We are learning about leadership as Year 7 will be our school leaders. Today we looked at what motivation means. We then worked collaboratively to create role plays to help us see what motivating others looks like, so we can learn to be great motivators.

Police

Today we had a special afternoon because a Police Helicopter was going to land in the middle of our field. Everyone was excited and sat on the field waiting for the helicopter. When it landed the wind was very strong and grass were flying everywhere. The men talked about the different parts and how it works I found out that there is a camera under the helicopter that cost $800,000 more then the actual helicopter. A while after the helicopter left, Police Officers showed us the intelligent dogs. I was amazed of what they can do and how fast they can run. This was a fun experience learning about the helicopter, dogs and wish to learn about it more.

Screen Castify

Today I have created a screencastify about my learning. I created my screencastify about my learning about fractions. I have picked to share this DLO because I had fun and I found this a bit challenging.
I have learnt that a fraction is a group or amount that is split into equal parts a denominator is how many parts there are altogether and a numerator is how much it has been taken or eaten.

Camels Explanation

How the camel has adapted to surviving in the desert

Have you ever thought about how or why Camels live in the Desserts. Camels can live in the Desserts because they are adapted to living in a hot and dry place. A Camel is a mammal with long legs, thick lips, and a humped back. Adapt is to make changes for a purpose to survive and live in hot & dry place for a camel

 

Pads

Camels have pads on their feet and chest to help them walk and lay on the hot sand, They also have webbed feet to walk on the sand much easier.

Eyelashes

Camels have long thick eyelashes to protect them from getting sand or dust getting into their eyes. They have double layers to secure their eyes even more to keep them safe.

Lips

Camels have thick lips to eat twigs, bones and thorns. This lets them eat cactus for water without feeling any pain.

Even though camels aren’t the fastest animal they can help us get through the desert and carry your essentials.

Did you know? Camels can run up to 40 mph

Today for writing we have been learning about how to write an explanation. We decided to write an explanation about how the camel has adapted to their environment. I have learnt an interesting fact about camels, I found out that camels can run up to 40 mph so if your in a rush and stuck in the dessert don't look further and look for a camel.

Nim

Today I chose to play Nim in this game I had to use my mind a lot because It was a strategy game. This game was really challenging because it go harder by the level. I recommend this game to students enjoy solving problems and good at strategies. I rate this game a 10/8 because was fun but really easy for me.
