Preparing for Christmas

 

This is a picture of me, a golden Christmas Tree and a paper wreath. I made these with the rest of the class. We're going to take them home for Christmas. To make the Christmas Tree, we used a cardboard cut out of a Christmas tree, then, we put lots of things like pasta and and grains of rice, we put them on the trees by using glue.  We then let the glue harden so the things we put on could stick properly. Then, we spray painted it golden. To make the paper wreath, I first cut out a picture of a wreath on paper, so I could see where I had to put the leaves, to make the leaves, we used green paper, we then scrunched the paper up to make them look like leaves. After that, we glued them onto the paper wreath. It was quite a long process. To make the candles, we used different colored cloths. To make the big one in the middle, I used a red cloth, for three of the candles, I used a purple cloth, for the last one, I used a pink cloth. to make the fire on the candles, I used a yellow cloth. After all of that was done, we took them outside to take pictures so we could post them on our blog. That's pretty much all.

Egypt

Today, I did another quiz. This time it was about Egypt. I like Egypt, It sounds like an interesting place. I might consider going there when I grow up. This quiz was slightly easier than the volcano one, Since I played a game called Assassin's Creed Origins, Which has a lot of information about Egypt. 

I got an 8/10. Pretty good.

Volcanoes

Since it's lock down, The Auckland Museum had to be closed for the time being. Luckily, they have a website where you can view all the museum attractions online. In the volcanoes section of the website, they have a quiz for people to do. It's a simple and fun quiz that's perfect for students. Mr. Bell asked us to do the quiz, learn a thing or two about volcanoes, then post our results on a blog. 

I got a 9/10 in the quiz. Not bad for someone who hardly knows anything about volcanoes.
