Fractured fairytales story arch

 The story of The Golden Bird is my favourite fairytale.

I have been learning about how to write a story using a story arch this week. 

Orientation - introducing characters

Inciting incedent - the start of some action

Rising action problems - first the problem was the brothers not listening to the fox

Climax - this is usually the most exciting part of the story

Success or failure - this is when something really good or really bad happens

Reslution - resolution is when you think of a plan to help the problem.

The human body

Today I have been learning about the human body and finding facts about it.

Did you know...
Skull. There are 22 bones in the skull,
Toe. the big toe in your foot only has two bones while the other ones have three,
Spine. The spine has 120 muscles in it.
Knee.the knee is one of the most stressed joints in your body.
Wrist. There are eight bones in your wrist.
Thigh. The thigh can also be called femur. The femur is the strongest bone.
Calf. calves balance, posture, stability,
Jaw. The jaw is the only bone in your body that is  bubble hingend.
Nose. your nose humidifies the air you breathe.

I had fun learning and putting the stickers onto the skelton.

Fractions

We practised in the morning meetings how to do fractions. it was hard at first then when I went onto the activity. It got a little bit more easier it helps using the app because it showed us what fractions were and how you can tell the difference.

On the website they had pizzas and the also had squares that you could use and touch to help you figure out the fractions by the end I've got the hang of fractions and that's why I think the website was good.

Here is my fractions table

The golden bird

  Today I completed a SSR slide.

This fairytale is about a golden bird who steals golden apples from the king.The other characters

are the gardener, his three sons along with the fox, the horse and the princes.

Each brother set off separately to find the golden bird along the way he met a  fox who gave them  good advice. When you reach the two houses go to the poor house, not the rich one but the eldest two did not listen and got distracted but the youngest one did not.

The consequence of going to the wrong house was that they would not be able to go on and find the golden bird, because the youngest one listend in the end got lots of rewards like the golden bird and the golden horse a pinces.

The moral of the story is listen to people advice and choose the right thing.

Seps Web Word flash

 Today I completed a word flash on steps.

For this  challenge you had to look very carefully and if you blinked you would miss it.

At first the words were slow but it sped up and that made it hard so I ended up getting a bronze.

I think this activity is good because it trains your brain to picture the word into your head. 

Comment thread

 Today I did a comment thread, on Mercy's poem. I liked her word and I wanted to comment. 

I looked on Cybersmart to remind me of the all things I should add to a comment. 

I have asked her a question, I hope she will answer it.
