Spring writing 💐

 

We were learning about writing very descriptive information about what the best parts about spring to us. I found it easy to use an online thesaurus to find better vocab for  words that could be more descriptive. I found it challenging to change all my level 1 and 2 words to make it more specific so I can achieve a better standard.  Next time I think I will add more level 3 adjectives so I can be on a higher standard and I can increase my spring vocabulary.

My Smiley face gif



 We were learning how to make a gif using piskel. I found it easy to add all of the different shapes and colors. I found it challenging to add all the different movements so my smiley face can move around. I enjoyed using a new gif app to make my own gif. Next time I might add more things into my piskel so its more detailed.

Next time I might choose a different/harder REACH value so I can challenge myself more.

I found it challenging to think of a question I wanted to find out the answer to about sunflowers.

The case of the missing everything (trailer)

 


We were learning how to make a powtoon on a movie trailer relating to our favourite book. I found it easy to add all the characters, backgrounds, sound and all the other effects. I found it challenging to pick all the translation between each slide. I enjoyed recording my own sounds and voice overs. Next time I might try and add less slides because its only a trailer of the book.

How to brush your teeth!

 


We were learning about how to write instructions on how to brush your teeth. I found it easy to write down the instructions I thought of and then imagine them in my head to see if they make sense. I found it hard to add lots of detail so if somebody followed these instructions they would have clean teeth at the end of reading it. I enjoyed writing instructions about how to brush your teeth because brushing your teeth is very important and hygenic. Next time I might try and add more steps/detail so it will make sense to people reading it.
