Roswell UFO Timeline

W.A.L.T: Think carefully about what the author is telling me.
This term we are learning about Mysteries. There were 8 mysteries to choose. I chose 'Roswell UFO Incident'. After choosing groups we had to do activity's related to our mystery. One of our activities were 'Timeline', that means we had to write the 'Beginning, Middle and End' in order. My last post I posted about my mindmup about the facts and information about the mysteries. I mostly found the information from a book in Epic. I couldn't add more because there wasn't any date after the 1949 balloon incident. Below is my timeline that I made. I hope you like my UFO Timeline that I made!! Have a cool 😎 week!! Bye!!


Personal Comment: I think that I had done well on this timeline.
Next Step: Search for some more dates on my timeline.

This term we are learning about mysteries. There were 8 mysteries to choose from. I chose 'Roswell UFO Incident'. After choosing groups we had to do activity's related to our mystery. There were 2 activities to post on the blog, the mindmup and the timeline. On our activity we had to brainstorm about, when, who and where it was. Also there are strange facts about the UFO Crash. Have a look at my mindmup that I made. I hope you like my mindmup!! Have a cool 😎 week!! Bye!!


Personal Comment: I think that the mindmup was a bit easy because I learnt a lot about the mystery and I could write heaps.
Next Step: To focus more on my work,

W.A.L.T: Divide with Remainders

This week for maths we are learning to Divide with Remainders. Watch this video for more information how to Divide with Remainders. This strategy is new for me and it took some time to get the strategy. Last year I made a DLO similar to this strategy but different. If there is any mistakes please comment. Hope you like my video! Have a cool 😎 day!! Bye!!

Mistakes: At the starting when I started my question I forgot to put a Zero (0), on top of the sign. ("I know you can't divide 7 by 4 so you have to make it into a 48.")

One more, the question wasn't long division. (Long Divison is to divide 2 numbers by 2.)

Beyond the Lines

The last week in writing we have been writing a story named Beyond the Lines. We watched a video named Beyond the Lines.  This video is related to ANZAC Day. We had to write one of the kids or one of the soldiers. I was one of the soldiers in the war. I hope you read my story and liked it. Have a cool 😎 day!! Bye!!

WALT write a narrative through the eyes of one of the children or one of the soldiers.


  • Think about how the men on the boat would have been feeling as they huddled on the boat on their way to their impending doom.
  • Think about words to describe the battleground, what you see, smell, taste, hear. Try to use words that create the mood.
  • Now…..Write a first person narrative through the eyes of one of the children or one of the soldiers..

Have a look at the video then have a look at my story that I wrote.
