Paper helicopter

Week 6:                      paper helicopter.

This week we started our flight rotations. We built a paper helicopter. We used a tutorial on how to build it. My friend Tyler and lily also made me a paper helicopter. 

It went ok because I had a race and i dropped them to see whose would spin the longest. Lily won the competition.

When you drop it, it twirls around and around in circles and it's really cool to watch. I think it was twirling because of the force weight. 

I wonder if i made it from cardboard, whether it would go down quicker because it is heavier. 

I am multi-structure because i know how to  and inference and a gathering data. I know a lot about flight and i know the four forces. They are weight, drag, lift, and thrust.

Responsible citizen

Responsible citizen.                                                A responsible citizen is someone who helps people and who looks up to people. If we didn't look after each other we would be in a bad place and we all need to be looked after.
If we didn't there would be punching everywhere so we are all special and we need to be looked after like everyone else. We would want to be looked after by family and friends. If we did not do that the world would be in a bad place.
If we were in danger from other humans we would be hiding like we're in a game of hide and seek. We would be shooting, punching and blowing things up. But today we have a non violent town.
I always see Lily being responsible for picking up rubbish and helping others if hurt. Over all you need to be a good responsible citizen to our community by picking rubbish up and helping others.  I can use several strategies and i can be a responsible citizen in our  community and I know wh…

Having a sleepover
It's the first time I'm having a sleepover with Riley and it's the first sleepover in my whole entire life. When we rush to bed, Riley is already half asleep. About 30 minutes later… it is dark. Everyone is asleep and I'm awake. It’s like everyone has ditched the house… I'm shivering deep inside like someone’s trying to murder us. Everywhere I look, it's pitch black. I feel a silky blanket around me. The house is making weird noises. It’s like world war 2. I can't see. I'm trying to make my way to the toilets. I try to open the door. It's jammed. Whhhhy? I find out what it was. It was the air bed. I'm so dumb, How did I not know that? The journey to the toilets. Boooo. I'm going through the hallway. I find a door.  What's in there? Should I go in or not? I say mmm, ok. The door screeches. Thank goodness, I’ve found it. Let’s get back to sleep. 
_____ I was learning where to put my question marks and my commas and I di…

Vortex wings

By -
Week 7: Lily and I made 3 vortex wings. It has thrust, weight, lift and drag. It flew 2 metres when thrown from the playground. I wonder what would happen if you made more vortex wings and put them altogether? Would this make it go further? My learning for gathering data is multistructural because I know lots about flight. My learning for inferences is relational because I have heaps of ideas about it.
