This term we finished doing reading circles and now we have been doing some quits about our reading circle book. We have to draw your character that you like in a square piece of paper. The square piece of paper has to have a square inside and out. In the inside you have to draw your character and in the out you draw things that were in the story.  

To make a quit you will need:

• A4 paper
• Scissors
• Coloured pencils / crayon
• Lead pencil
• Ruler

First, you have to rule up to 25 cm 

Secondly, you cut it out. 

Thirdly, you rule a 3cm square. 

Fourth, you draw your character. 

Fifth, you decorate the outside. 

Finally, you colour it. 

My character in the Iron Man is the dragon. First he was in a star then it broke and he landed on Earth. He was hungry so he ask the people to “Spare me some food” he said “NO” said the people “Then I will destroy your land” The dragon said. Then a boy named Horgarth asks the Iron Man to destroy him, He refused then Horgarth told him what he would do. The Iron Man froze for a minute then he said yes. So he went to the dragon and challenged him to a battle of who can lay on fire the most.  

Last week on Friday there was a disco. It was on 1:30 – 3:00. There was lots of people there (lots of loud people) shouting very loud. I had to sit down because I had a stomach ache. There was also a cake sale too. Each cake was 50 cents. The disco cost $2.00 for disco, $3.00 if you are wearing mufti. 

Too bad we did it when it was sunny. Nearly everybody was dressed in mufti I nearly thought I was the only one wearing mufti. But two people (Dushan and Sokeina) were wearing school uniform.

That’s all bye for now.

This term we have been doing leadership sessions. Leadership is a thing that we do to learn how to be a leader. We are spitted into groups with two teachers. In leadership sessions there are books and they have all the things we need to learn to be a leader. 

The sessions we had done are:

·       Speaking up: We learn how to speak clearly.

·       Eye contact: We learned how to look at the audience that you are listening to.

·       Hand gestures: We learned to use our hands to show the audience what we are doing.

·       Leadership muscles:  There are lots of leadership muscles like: Confidence, fun, friendly, energetic, responsible, reliable, hard worker, good listener, optimistic, assertive, trust worthy, honest and many more.

That’s all I learned hope you learned something. Oh I just forgot were having a party.

Last week on Wednesday some visitors came to see what we do on the computers. Everybody had to show them somethings that helps us learn in a fun way. We showed them Mission Maker, Scratch,  WebliWorld, our blog and many more.

We had to show them what we do by ourselves. I showed my blog to them and they were interested in all the post I done. They saw lots of other students doing Mission Maker and WebliWorld. There were two groups of visitors going around the whole school looking for classes that interest them.

 They liked everything and they hope that they can do all of this at home.

Yesterday we had to find some information about dragons. There are lots of dragons in the world such like water dragons, komodo dragons, tropical dragons,
Greenland dragons, Asian dragons and many more.  

Dragons are reptiles so they lay eggs, have scaly skin and blows fire out of their mouth. Some dragons swim in the water they even lay eggs in the water. Dragons like to fly with their wings. Dragons live up to 1500years then they die  :cry:  Some are colourful, ugly, fat, skinny, and some dragons have long moustaches. 

The dragons eat meat, fish, drink water, animals and even humans! Some people kill dragons for their scaly skin and some kill the dragons for other reasons. Dragons live in caves and in woods. 

That’s all the information I got hope it helped you!!!!
