Clay Modeling Techniques - iPhone

More than 14 days ago ( 2 weeks ) room 11 had to get into groups and decide what kind of technology we wanted to make out of clay. So we got into groups of 3 Maranatha, Gloria and myself made a group and decided that we were going to make an iPhone. So when we finished, we had to write about what we wanted to include what a phone comes with. But of course, you would have to include a charger, because it is the most important thing.  So 3 days ago we had to make what we wrote about, out of clay. When we finally finished  we had to take a photo of what we made. Here is a photo of what I  made:

R.L Stine-Goosebumps

So about 8 or 7 days ago we had to decide what we wanted to do for our book study. So it was either Lemony Sniket or Goosebumps. So we got into a circle and had to say what we wanted to do our book study about. As soon as we finished saying what we wanted to do, it was mainly goosebumps. So we got into groups of 4 and decided what we were going to write about. The things that were written about were the blurb, The designs for our library presentation, The author and The Night of the living dummy series. From today we have completed our work and it is going to be put up on the library wall!

" Shake Out Drill !"

When we were doing our spelling the bell went BRING, BRING! It was the Shakeout Drill that was being held all over New Zealand at 9:15am.

So we all rushed under our desks. While we were under our desks people were laughing and playing games. We had to stay under them for a couple of minutes until the all clear bell rang.

When the drill was finally finished Miss Brough let us know it was over and asked us if we were all ok.
