My sisters birthday

 In lockdown it was my sisters birthday and she was excited. We were planning to go to christchurch but then lockdown came. So we had to cancel our tickets to christchurch and we didn't know what to do. On the day of her birthday we thought of something fast. We thought of the beach so we got in the car and drove. First we stopped a the bakery to get my sisters cake so my mum went outside and collected it. The cake was flavored chocolate all over even the whipped cream was chocolate. Then we went to Mcdonald's to get some food to eat at the beach. Once we got to the beach we ate first then when we finished eating we got dressed in our togs. I asked my dad to take me and my sister to the water. When I got there it was surprisingly shallow but I spoke to soon once I stepped forward the wave hit me. I could taste the yucky salty water so I ran back to our spot an we wished my sister and ate the cake. My sister thought it was a great fun birthday.

Jerome's Work

This week we've been having some changes to our work. The first change was our task board but my favorite change was code avengers. Code avengers is also my reading and writing. Since its my reading and writing that means I do 2 activities a day. Once you log in to code avengers there are numbered lessons that you do. Overall code avengers is my favorite piece of work to do.  

Jerome's arts and crafts

Over lockdown I've been making fun crafts. My work has mostly been three main kinds, here they are:

1. My Transformers cutouts - for these I cut big rectangles. Then I find pictures on google and replicate them on.

Megatron robot mode 

Megatron beast mode 

2. My Ben 10 cutouts - for these I cut all kind of shapes. Then I either memorize or find pictures to draw.

Energy armor

Energy flame

3. My pokemon cutouts - for these I cut and fold rectangles. Then I draw the pokemon stages from my book onto the paper. Here are the pictures of the pokemon cut outs. For example, below are the evolutionary stages of Aron.

Jerome's disgusting sandwich

 Through the week we've been doing some writing work. The type of writing we've been doing is procedural writing. Our task was to make a disgusting sandwich. Then write the ingredients down and wrote instructions on a step by step manner. In my sandwich there were nine steps.  I loved the activity because we could choose how disgusting. Here is the link to my sandwich work. Blog you later on my next activity.    

Jerome's DLO

Over the past four days, we've been completing a DLO. A DLO is a Digital Learning Object. Since its lockdown now, instead of teachers parents check it. First we find an athlete to write about. Then make a page that's big enough for 4 days work. I started off on a google drawing and then on slides. It was all based on the Paralympics. The athlete I chose was a shooter called Michael Johnson. It was hard but I was able to finish it. Overall I thought the activity was the right amount of challenging. The link to my DLO is down there if you want to see it.

Jerome's yummy chocolate banana cake

During the weekend, my sister and I were wondering what we could do.  My mother said that we could bake her famous banana choc cake as we had some ripe bananas lying around. First we measured the flour and cocoa powders. Second we mashed the bananas with a fork and smashing them was fun! Third we added very little oil in with the mix. Fourth we put butter in the oven and melted it. Fifth My mum carefully cracked open an egg. Sixth we put black liquid vanilla. Seventh we put sugar into the mixture. Eighth we mixed it together and we put choc chips on top. It looked like ooey gooey deliciousness and when we put it in the oven and got it out it tasted even better.

Jerome's Muffin Project

On this week's google meet our teacher gave us a project about making muffins. My Mum got chocolate cake powder when she heard about my muffin project. First, we poured the cake powder into the bowl it smelled nice. Second, we cracked open eggs and put the yolk and white in the bowl. Third, we added vegetable oil and water. I was able to use my math skills to measure the quantity of oil and water. Fourth, my Mum whisked the mixture and let me use the electric whisker. Then my sister wanted to put toppings and I didn't so we each split 6 and 6. My sister used Oreos as her topping. Fifth, we put them in the oven so they could cook and puff up. After this, my sister and I went to watch some TV. Then my Mum said that the muffins were done so when we finished our lunch we could have 1.
