This week we have made a Minecraft desert island. I built it with Leon. It has all the details in the slide. So read that. I really liked to make the island. But with all the fun you have to do writing about what you have made. It is good at making you writing because the more you make the more you write.

Time Capsule
This week we have been writing letters to ourselves for 50 years. We will put all of our letters in a box and bury it. We had to write the letter online then we had to write it all down onto paper. We had to put our details so it will be easier to track us down in the future. Well, that's if we're alive of course. We also had to write about life in 2021 so far like the Olympics. I really enjoyed writing the letter.
Have you ever write a time capsule?

Outstanding Olympics
This week the Olympics started. We have been watching the Olympics. We watched a Triathalon, the rugby sevens, swimming, BMX, and kayaking. Unfortunately, the all-black sevens lost against Fiji but in the end, got silver. For reading, we have been doing Olympics tasks. For one of the tasks, we had to pick three Olympics people to write about. I chose Andrew Knewstubb, Anton Cooper, and Rebecca Petch. I really like learning about the Olympics.
Have you been watching the Olympics?

Emily Carr
We have been learning to paint like Emily Carr with Mrs Swinburn. Emily liked to paint trees. She was born on 13 December 1871 and died on 2 March 1945. She had a technique where she did swirls. For our latest art, we had a piece of paper and sponged it with two colours. I chose yellow and orange. Then we sketched on a goose paper how we were going to do our trees. Mrs. Swinburn put the piece of sponged paper on a white piece of paper. Next, we got the piece of paper that we sponged and drew the sketch with black paint. After that she put the paper on a black piece of paper, then we signed out names initials. Then we were done.
Did you know about Emily Carr?

Fake News
Last week we were learning about how to identify fake websites. Like the Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus. This is fake, obviously. We learned how to know if these are fake or not. One of the techniques is to see if it’s a joke. It might be too outlandish, which means it’s obvious. Also, you can check the sources, do they match the story? I really liked learning about how to identify fake websites. Now I know how to identify fake websites. Do you know any fake websites?
