Why I chose 'Climbing Table Mountain'

By -
I chose Climbing Table Mountain for my powerful verb keynote because everyone was doing what I was originally going to do so I just wanted to do something original. It took me a while to figure out what I was going to do. At first when Mrs Raubie told us we were going to do the powerful verb keynote I already knew what I was going to do, until I heard somebody was already going to do it. So I had to change my idea. I got the idea of Table Mountain because the first time I went up Table Mountain it was the most amazing experience ever. Although going up Table Mountain is scary, even if you are in the cable car.

First Blog of 2017

Grade 6 is finally here! I can't believe I've been at the senior primary for three years now. This year I am in the Falcons. So far grade 6 has been amazing and I can't wait to see what is going to happen this year. This year I hope I can get my English, Afrikaans and Maths marks to improve. he classes are very mixed this year but I still have a lot of friends in my class. Grade 6 is very different from grade four and five especially since we don't have as much homework. I've gotten used to the fact that we get different teachers for different subjects. Miss Calitz is my class teacher, she takes us for Afrikaans and LO. Most people think that Miss Calitz seems but once you get to know her she is very funny and kind. In English we are reading Wonder with Mrs Kent. My class are the monitors for this term. Being a monitor is very exciting. Grade 6 is bit more challenging than Grade 5 but a challenge is good. This year the school production is The Little Mermaid. I was

Email Etiquette

By -
Two weeks ago we learned about email etiquette. We watched a video about important points when emailing a teacher. We also had to answer a few questions on a Hyperdoc. When emailing a teacher you have to make sure you don't use slang or all caps. Always use a specific subject line. Make sure you get right to the point and sign off properly. Always be professional. We had to make sure we used all these points because we had to email our teacher. When emailing your friend will most likely be less professional. I enjoyed doing this task because it was easy and I enjoyed working on the Hyperdoc. The video was very informing.

Superhero Stop - Motion Project

By -
This term the Grade 6's of 2017 are doing a stop - motion project. We have to work with a partner to create our own superhero or villain. We have to use the I Can Animate and iMovie apps. The project is a mixture of Art, English and Technology. We had to draw our character then make it out of plasticine, then we had to draw and paint our set. We have to film everything carefully to make sure it all looks like one big movement when really it's a lot of small movements. There is an uneven number of people in the Falcons class so I am in a group of three with Thato and Mbali. We created a villain named Mr Boom. Mr Boom is a Russian villain that is super intelligent and can make things explode with his mind. The only frustrations we have with this project is that we are struggling with time management. The only thing I would change is having less characters. We thought that it would be better if we had four characters instead of two and although it is interesting, it is also a lot
