UFO Crash Creation

W.A.L.T: create a model that shares something we have learnt about our mystery.

As you know our topic is about mysteries all around the world. I have posted 4 to 5 posts about our mystery, like one is about my last post about my speech that I presented. We have made creations about our mystery. I have worked with Lasa for our creation. This creation shows how the UFO crashed near Mac Brazel's cabin. All of the class did their creation. This creation took time to finish. But it was fun to make the creation. There was some parts when Lasa and I didn't agree each other's ideas. I have found some photos about our creation. I hope you like our creation that Lasa and I made. Have an awesome and cool 😎 day/week/term. Bye!!


Personal Comment: I think that I had done well with Lasa. But I think that I should concentrate more on my work.

As you know our topic is Mysteries and my mystery is Roswell UFO Incident. I have posted 2 post about the mystery I am doing, the first one that I posted was the Mindmup that I made and the second one that I have posted was my Timeline. Now I have collected all of the information from Mindmup, the Timeline, Epic, other websites and I have made a DLO (Digital Learning Object) out of these information. It has taken a lot of time to make this DLO. Also we have made a Comic Strip to tell you how did the Roswell UFO Incident happened. One more thing we have also added some information about one more mystery. Check out the mystery. I hope you like our DLO that we made. I hope you have a cool 😎 day/week! Bye!!

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.

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.)

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..
