SLJ – Octupus Oddities – Kick Start

LI: Create an Octupus using the online colouring tool or craft of your own!

For this Summer Learning Journey challenge, I’ve started off with an Octopus with no colouring, and as for this task; It is a requirement to colour it in with a certain colour that represents an Octopus. While colouring in, I have learnt that Octopuses have eight arms and no tentacles from beliefs; their arms have sucker muscular suction cups that they use to grip (Also used with their lenght.) Their tentacles think independently, which the Octopus was given the name of a multitasker! Their tentacles can also have a strong taste like a tastebud, which helps them taste things like us humans and other animals! These sea sticking creatures are quite huge, which they could grow up to 9 meters long, alongside three hearts and blue blood!

I found this activity really interesing because I get to learn more facts about the Octopus.

SLJ – Legs Legs Legs? Kick Start

LI: Mosha wants a new leg!

For this Summer Learning Journey Challenge, I have structured a new prosthetic leg for Mosha using Google Draw. As I continue to build this new leg, I’ve learnt that she stood on a landmine when she was just 7 months old, leading her to a penalty of losing her front leg on the left. A various amount of citiczens thought she would never have a chance of surviving, but she was saved by people that worked as a group, that gave her a chance of life.

I found this activity enjoyable because I get to create a new prosthetic leg for Mosha whilst also learning new facts about her.

SLJ – Leg Tally Kick Start

LI: To learn about giant centipedes.

For this Summer Learning Journey challenge, I’ve picked the Kick Start version of the Leg Tally using my Maths Knowledge for this assessment. As I carry on with my Maths Knowledge, I’ve also learnt new facts about this insect. It seems to be a large, and venomous predator coming from around the tropical regions, this predator seems to have been calculated to be 12 inches long. It also has a typical amount of animals to prey on which are; Lizards, Frogs, Bats, and Rodents. Talking about the typical amount of prey it eats, this insect has an ability that includes their front legs with venom, the front to paralyze animals it eats.

I found this activity really enjoyable because I get to share my Maths Knowledge and what I have learnt about the Giant Centipede so far.

SLJ – Art In The Web

For this Summer Learning Journey, I have structured on how to draw a spiderweb on a piece of paper using a marker to structure both webs at the same time. With the use of drawing the web; I have learnt that spiderwebs aren’t just any type of trap, they pose to be a work of art made by those little insects. While people not only pronounce their webs as traps and art, spiders are said to be experts at structuring their work of art using their webs and talent despite them being so little you could step on it.

I found this activity really enjoyable because I get to learn new facts about spiderwebs whilst also structuring my own on a piece of paper.

Summer Learning Journey – Animals With Superpowers

For this Summer Learning Journey; I’ve structured a sea water animal called the Red Lionfish using Google Draw. I have chosen this sea water species because it contains poison at the base of their spines. When confronted by a hazard, this type of fish releases the dorsal fins and faces the toxic spines in front of the cause of the hostility towards it.

I found this activity really enjoyable because I get to make the Red Lionfish using tools in Google Draw.

The Polynesian Panthers Voiceover

LI: To create a 3D image that depicts a moment in time.

This is my voiceover about the Polynesian Panthers and the Dawn Raids, the Dawn Raids seems to be stated as the most racist act towards Pacific people and has been going around since 1974-1979. Since then, the Polynesian Panthers were formed and structured as allies and a team, protesting against the corruption from that year of time.

I found this activity really enjoyable because we get to research about world from all around the world. (alongside the dioramas that are based off the chosen events we have  picked.)
