Children of Blood and Bone - Part 2

 Chapter 30 – Amari

Chaos.
Before this moment, I never truly understood the word. Chaos meant Mother’s screams before a luncheon. It meant the scramble of oloyes to their gold-lined chairs.
Now chaos surrounds me, pulsing through every breath and heartbeat. It sings as blood splatters through the air, snickers with delight as boats explode into oblivion.

This could be compared to world wars

A message I take from this scene is


Chapter 43 - Inan
Now it takes everything to gain control. No matter how hard I fight, the risk of feeling Zélie’s pain lingers. A constant and growing threat.
(Why is thinking about the truth a “threat”?)

- Because Inan wants to learn how to control his magic

This could be compared to

A message I take from this scene is


Chapter 45 – Inan
“Your people, your guards. They’re nothing more than killers, rapists and thieves. The only difference between them and criminals is the uniforms they wear.”

This could be compared to

A message I take from this scene is that the guards are exactly like criminals

Catapult machines

In Science, we were told to make our own catapult machines using only popsicle sticks and rubber bands.

Creative Writing - 1st person narrative

 We have been studying Antarctica. We listened to a story about Nanook, a husky who was sent to Antarctica on an expedition in 1901. We then wrote the next chapter of the story from Nanook’s ‘Point of View’. 

A day has passed after the celebration, I started feeling excited as Hector told me that we are going to Antarctica the day after tomorrow. I woke my friends up and told them the good news after Hector left. They all felt the same feelings as me as soon as they heard me say the ‘leaving to Antarctica’ part. We all felt really happy about the new upcoming adventures even though we knew that it would not be easy because everything would be fine as long as we have each other. Another day has passed and I and my team could feel the warmth of the sun as it rises to the sky.





Math

In Maths, we learnt how to use Substitution into an equation by replacing a variable with a number when it is known. And we also learnt about formulae, In formulae, letters are used to represent numbers. For example, the formula A lw = can be used to find the area of a rectangle.

Wind Racers

1. Post a photo of your racer

2. Calculate the speed of your racer (race distance = 9m). Show your work.

V = ∆d/∆t

V = 9m/15.79s

V = 0.57 ms- 1

3. Why did you choose your design? How could you have changed the design to make your racer go faster?

We didn't really choose our design because there wasn't enough time for us to think of a better design. It wasn't that bad but it definitely needed help
