Saturday 27 March This week we watched holes, because we read the book it was amazing the actors were great I think everyone should watch it [and the book] my favorite part was when it rained the look on there faces were so cool. Also we read stanley yelnast's survival guide to camp green lake it was really funny. Both books were by Louis Sachar. Saturday 27 mach At our school we have a novel challenge that means we have to read 7 books and for every book we read we have to do an activity then get it signed of by our teacher.

Tuesday 30 march it is almost the end of term room 1 is great I have gotten to know Mr Kemp better and I have learnt lots. In this term I have become a P.A.L and a Yellow shirt I think this is going to be a good year to get better at my leadership skills. I have almost done an information report it is on Galileo Galleiit is looking good

Wednesday 31 march today is Mrs Gaston's leaving assembly she has taught me in room 5 also she runs enviro group which is really cool.I will miss her very much she is so great in our school it will be a real loss. for her assembly Mr Kemp filmed us saying a memory. it will be really nice.

What is wrong with a little comfort food
No fish and chips 'WHAT' I know I know it's crazy.I believe in a balance diet.So how came we cant have Fish n chips once a week. That is what I call a balance diet. I b At the monent we are doing area and perimetre. I am slowly geting it I need to get the strategy in my head when I get It it will be easy. At the moment we are writing myths. At first I thoght great more boring writing but when Mr Falconer gave me a topic I was off in the end I liked writing myths and Mr Falconer has given me an understanding of what a myth is all about. In reading our class book is Small Steps. I liked it but I did not like the ending I wanted then to fall in love again. I am in the red group but the rest of my group reads alot faster then me so I get left behind. I have read 9 novels and into my 10 novel but sadly I have to give it back to the libary. Monday19 July it is the start of term 3 and we have got back into the swing of things really well Olivia h is really cool. In inquiry we are doing space I think I am going to learn lots but some of the stuff I will not even under stand. In writing we are doing explanations and I am in the adjectives. This term in math I am in stage six I really want to move up a stage so I am going to do my very best. Wednesday 21 July = I walked into class today = = and looked at the board = = and saw the 2010 yellow shirts = = are. I held me breath and look = = at the board and there was my name = = Olivia = = I am a yellow shirt. = = Next term I am looking = = forward to being a yellow shirt. space info= http://www.solarspace.co.uk/PlanetPics/Venus/venusmed.jpg The planet itself is visible in the night sky a few hours before sunrise (as the Morning Star) the moon is not a star because it does not make it's own light Mums Very Evil Monkeys Jamed Sams Unused Nappies

fun at school
Thursday 29 July I am loving the show I have learned my lines for room5's scene and like doing room1's scene I need to know the green screening lines by the 11 of August. For room1 scene they are doing the land that is cool[ not really] I think it is funny and everyone is include. Tomas is great at MC hammer I love it when he says 'S top Hammer time'. Liv is going to look cool and I like Mr Kemps idea of the frams it would look cool. The room 6 kids is the wiggles they are going to look cool when I was little I loved the wiggles It was the coolest thing ever. Math:1/4 of 24=6 Reading: lucky for some was a really good book the end was scarey because she almost died Writing: explanations we are going to write our criteria and check list PE: we are doing the show instead The punctuation games were fun and clear I learnt about nouns verbs. The scents game was easy but it still made me think. Today we did a math test and it was on my birthday but my birthday luck came in handy because I passed level 6 own my first try and next term I will do level 7 so to pass it I need to work hard and use my flash cards. Monday 6 september It is now term 3 and we have a new student teacher his name is Mr Goh [go is how you say it] he is from singorpoor. He will be teaching us about fossles I have no clue about fossles but it should be fun. Also he will be teaching us a topic on writing I will keep you posted In writing we doing explanations I am finding it hard because I am so busy with the show in 10 min I will be doing some more of it lets hope I have enough info at the moment we are working hard on the show let me tell you what it is all about. the captian [me] scientist [my best friend Clair] Pilet [Rebecca] engineer [Max] all go on a mission to mars, but Max mucked up the ignishion device so now we are in a new galicasy and don't know how to get home. We first are on omplump land [room4] They do the candy man dance the lolly pop dance and the ompalumpa dance. They give us a map of the iridem galaixy so next stop the wiggles. Every time we finish a scene there is a green screen that is pre recored so in that time it is really dark back stage, so we are all looking for the lollies that Rebecca brought. In the Wiggles World they do 5 dances we join in hot potatoe and rock a by a bear the whole time if they are not talking they are waving and smiling. Room 1 is next they are the planet of uncool things this scene is long with lots of dances every dance has to be smiley and I ntime but really it is just a group of people having a great fun doing things and popping up hear and there. Then it is room7 with the planet of stars they do lots of powms and dances also they do a re mix of twinkle twinkle little star. The song we do is there is a tiny little star Clair and I have most of the on our side so the other group only gets about two or three kids in practis I always go the wrong way so Willam is like 'Olivia you are going the the wrong way'. For the gift we get some star dust my favourite line in that scene is ' ok ok we get the picture it could be a problem'. After that is purple planet it is creepy and weird I like the start and the food they give us. Room 5 is next I love that scene because they do everything. Max has fun there but the rest of us get mad so I have an idea to talk in slowly but that does not work in the end they stop doing what we do and the leader says 'quickly we were only joking is this what you wanted why didn't you just so' then they give us a star. Lasty is the planet iridemy the ice queen gives us a map and marries the fire prince. Thewhole school does celebrations there is no room at all I hate it. The last song is a wandering I think Mrs Day did a good Job. The best part in the hole thing is the bow that final bow were everyone is claping and it makes you feel great all the nerves disappear and I think about all the practising all that time in the library learning lines teasing each other not being able to remember your lines so the other 3 help you out, it is all worth it. Fossils

The fossil record holds important clues about life in the past. But not everything that once lived gets preserved as a fossil, nor do all fossils survive Earth’s forces. .

Fossils can be body parts of ancient organisms such as bones, shells, teeth, or plant leaves. Fossils can also be traces left by organisms such as burrows, coprolites (feces), tracks and trails, nests or footprints. Some fossils are both a trace fossil and a body fossil at the same time!

Layers of sediment, such as sand and silt, cover the remains of the organism or its trace. Layers of sediment, such as sand and silt, cover the remains of the organism or its trace. Skeleton is buried deeper and fossilized Eventually the layers may harden into sedimentary rock, trapping the remains inside. Many types of decomposers live in the top layers of soil. These decomposers can break down dead organisms before they can harden into fossils. Molds are imprints left from something that was buried. The structure decays and its imprint or mold is left in the sediment. The mold can be seen if the rock is broken open.

Casts are formed when sediment leaks into a mold and hardens to form a copy of the original structure. Sometimes structures can be preserved as they are without any mineralization. Pollen and other microfossils (tiny fossils) are good examples of this. Mineralization occurs when minerals carried in water build up in the spaces of an organism and eventually become rock. Impressions are the imprints left behind in the sediments by an organism. Leaves are among the most common fossils preserved as impressions. Impression of plant leaves A record of soft structures can be preserved in stone. Although being buried in sediment is the most common way for an organism to become a fossil, it is not the only way. Thursday 23 dr David Jones came into our classroom to teach us about fossils I learnt that the best place to find fossils is middle March because there was a volcano that exploded it made a big hole in the ground. That hole fulled up with water then leaves,fis sh and spiders ect got in the hole it started to dry up then layers and layers built up so fossils were made. Also he brought his own fossils that looked cool I found a bit of flint it smelt wird. a new term so much to do I can't wait to do the pal day it will be fun mr k has so much info to give us lets get the term started Tuesday 12 october Today I am playing math games the first game I played was groovy garden it was not really a math but it was good for the plant. thursday 14 october =Should Room1 be an ict classroom?= = = = = =Yes ict is handy to use but not all the time! I believe that room 1 should not become an ict classroom because life does not revolve around technology as there is nature at our door step just waiting for us to discover and use. The computer is clearly a great learning tool but not the only one, what about books, would you want to look at mega pixels or a well printed book? Kids would be glued to the screen all day, but what about contact with other kids and teachers. I think there is still a place for old fashion ways in this world that should not be forgotten like handwriting and spelling. When I did my research I found some information that said looking at a screen can mesmerize chrilden this can make you tired and bored, this meaning children can be less engaged. Another factor is if something goes wrong with the technology then a lot of time can be spent tring to fix it which is cutting into our learning time. I believe therefore it is important to have a balance of a traditional ways of learning and technology- a great mix don't you think?= I pads I have played lots of games on the i pads super seven is fun and so is add to ten there are lots of math games and a reading game for little kids. Habour master is cool but it is not a learning game. Most games I would rate a 3 or 4.

=Tuesday 9 november= =Going to grant's farm was fun I liked the can o worms because I learnt have they work. The most interesting thing I learnt was that the white ring on a worm is the egg so what happens is that two worms mate, the ring comes off and is then the egg. The lady told us that worms are not girls and boys they are both so they have girl and boy organs in one worm. To get the worm castings out they put a on a thing that looks like sive slowly you take off bits of dirtywhile you are doing that the worms are going throw the sive. We got to take photos to I took about two photos**.**=
