How To Make A Porotiti

 Hello everyone,

Today for reading, my group can choose to make a porotiti or a presentation. Everyone from our group chose to make a porotiti. It would only require a few things. While reading about the porotiti we realized that it was a musical instrument. 

When we all started we already got everything we needed. The hardest part I experienced was poking the holes into the cardboard. It took a lot of twisting and turning but I finally finished it. The last part was kind of confusing. I got stuck on the last part but mine turned out great It was working completely fine. 

While I was trying it, it didn't seem like a musical instrument. I spun the porotiti and placed it close to my ear. The porotiti didn't sound like a musical instrument. After I tested the porotiti I had to go somewhere.

I hope you like my blog post.

Have a wonderful day!

The Library

 Hello everyone,

Today I am going to talk you about the library. For today our teacher took us to our school library. The first reason we went there was because some people needed to return their books. The name of the book I chose is called "Dracula." I spent a long time looking for a book. 

After we finished getting our books I realized that I didn't have to chose a book. 

Have a wonder day. Thank you for reading my blog post.

 















Have you ever been to the library before?

100 Word Count

Hello everyone, 

Today I am going to talk to you about my 100 word count. This time we got a picture of a statue. We were allowed to make a story about that statue. After I had to check if it was 100 words. It's not that easy to get exactly 100 words. I had to check my words a lot of times. 

After a few years (in the story) He started getting older and older. Then the people made a statue to remember him.  My story is about  a fearless man. that took part in World War 1. When he was involved he once took a shot for his friend.

Thank you for reading my blog post.

have a fantastic day.








Do you know that war came after World War 1?

Bark Rubbing

 Hello everyone,

Yesterday we did topic about bark. We had to find the different barks. After that we had to get paper and two crayons so we can do some bar rubbing. For bark rubbing we had to find some trees. 

Then the next step is to put your paper on tree and rub the paper with the crayon on the side. We have to get eight bark rubbings. The trees had to be different from the others.

Sooner or later when everyone finished we have to cut them up and make a tree (with the bark rubbing) Unfortunately we didn't have enough  time to make the tree.   

Thank you for reading my blog post.

I hope you have an amazing weekend. 

Have you ever done leaf rubbing before?

Layers Of The Rainforest

 Hello everyone, 

Today I am going to talk to you about  Layers of the rain forest.  There is many different trees that reach different height. On the forest floor there is grass, dirt, animals,insects and bushes.  In the emergent layer there are some birds butterfly maybe monkeys.

Our class was going to write down facts about each layer of the forest like the forest floor, under story,canopy and the emergent layer. If you wanted people could search up facts about some of the layers but they have to put it into their own words. I didn't even need to search facts about the layers. It's because Before we started our work miss Scott told us some things that are in ever layer. 

I hope you enjoyed reading my blog post. 

Have a wonderful day.



Have you been to the forest before?
