S.T.E.M Bridge

W.A.L.T: problem solve as a team.
Today for S.T.E.M we had to build a bridge we only had 15 sticks, 6 wide sticks and 10 rubber bands but we were late and got 15 wide sticks and 10 rubber bands we had to build a bridge that could hold two books.
What went well: it could hold two books.
What are your next step: plan what we did.
Do you think you can build a bridge that can hold two books?

Sand Dunes

Today we went on a trip to the beach and learnt about the sand dunes.
Here's how they form first they start at the mountains then the rocks fall off by erosion then fall into the river and the rocks will turn into sand and the river leads to the ocean then the ocean moves on the beach then the wind is coming from the east because the wind comes 75% from the east making sand dunes.
There are plants on the sand dunes called marine grass, pingao, spinifex and ice plant sand dunes can protect houses stormy waves can destroy sand dunes.
There are also creatures in there like a spider, a gecko, then we went off to build a sand dune and do stuff to it like how a stormy wave would do to the sand dune.
Then we had morning tea then we made sand ladders and decorate our sand dunes here's our one.
Do you know anything else about sand dunes?

Playstation

This week we have been doing a passion project I chose Playstation we had to do 5 facts and why we have chosen it and who/where/when/why invented it who inspired me and some information.
we were looking at this because we were finding what makes us happy and I did this because I love playing on my Playstation.
What would you choose?

S.T.E.M Marble run

Today for S.T.E.M we had to make a marble run this our one.
what went well: that it worked and we did a turn.
Challenging: that it keeps moving around and messed up when you lift it.
Next step: to make a better structure than we did.
Do you think that you would be able to do it?

YOU-WHO-DO-THROUGH

WALT: Write a prayer using the you-who-do-through Structure.

In class we have been learning to write a prayer using a simple structure.

I like using this structure because its really simple.

here they are.

Loving God You fill us with love and kindness Help us to bring peace and joy to others We ask this through Christ our Lord Amen.

God our creator You fill our hearts with faith Send us your Spirit to make us strong in faith and active in good works We make this prayer in Jesus's name Amen.

Faithful God You lead us in your ways Teach us courage to believe in you Through Christ our Lord Amen.

Swimming

For the last two weeks we have been having swimming lessons at QEII we did a bunch of activities I learnt how to treat water and what to do if your in trouble. The worst part for me is when we had to take off our goggles and swim without them because when I get water in my eyes they start to hurt. The best part for me is when we had to get on the boat and we had to fall backwards in the water and we had life jackets on this is my favourite part because it is fun falling off the boat. The hardest thing to learn was treating water because you have to use your hands and feet to stay floating and you are not allowed to touch the ground. What would be the hardest thing for you if your school was doing swimming lessons?
Now enjoy the photos that my teacher took when we were swimming.
