These few weeks we are doing a progect on rome it has to be 15 to 20 minutes long and everyone has a different job to do.

My jobs are to make a model of the roman colleseum and make models of weapons and finally roman numerals.

Last week we had a sports carnival it was on the oval. In the morning we had a pepping up session and then it was recsess and then we did events

At school we watched this Motivation media presentation and as you probably guessed it was about motivation. It was pretty good and surprisingly it  WAS motivating ,yes you heard correctly “IT WAS MOTIVATING!” So i advise you to watch it ( it was by motivational media )

The day I stayed home from school sick I wasn’t actually sick. This is what I did:                                                                               -Sleep with a pillow on your head to get a temperature.                                                                                                                                -Fake cough during the night.                                                                                                                                                                                    -  Lick your palm and put on your forehead for clamminess.

GOOD LUCK!

Another cool thing I like is stop motion animation, it is where you use a toy or plastercine figure ect..ect.. and you put it in a position take a picture move it a tiny bit and take another picture. You keep doing that until you have a good thing going on.

To put it into a animation use a program like windows movie maker, insert your pictures in order and shorten the frame length to a speed so when you play it it looks like a movie. Here is a link to a  stop motion animation, http://video.google.com.au/videosearch?q=stop+motion+animation&hl=en&emb=0&aq=f#

This term I have learnt a lot about World War One. We did a history project earlier this term on w.w.1 I think I did well in it, and it really helped me learn about how people coped during the first world war. I think that I did best in that project and I hope to have more like it.

I have also learned a lot about perimiter and area in my math class and I think those skills will come in handy one-day. Definetely if I become a builder or anything like that where you need to know perimiter and area./ So I would like to thank my math teacher for teaching me those skills

I learnt a good amount in I.C.T ande I am sure it is going to be helpfull when I am older because I want to be a graphic artist, so the skills I have learnt will hopefully help me later down the track

For those who dont know what a graphic artist is its a person who uses a computer to make designs and characters

Today we had to make a map of Orford ( east of tasmania ) this is mine
