Yesterday Room 9 & 10 went on a Google meet with schools from all over Christchurch, and got taught by a year 5 and a year 6 student from Belfast school how to make a short simple animation on Canva. They showed us all the steps on how to create it and examples of stuff we could do. I decided to do a fox running through a field with bees buzzing around.
Here is mine:

This term for RE we have been learning about all the different types of religions and what they are. We found out that there are 8 different types, including: Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Shinto, Sikhism and Judaism. After learning about them we had to create a poster about one specific religion and I chose Buddhism.
Here is my poster:

A few weeks ago everyone in room 9/10 painted their own design on a wooden fish, and then when they were all done they would get hung up on a wall in new Brighton next to couplands. I tried to do a beach but there was no white to separate the sand from the sea, so it just looks like a yellow and blue gradient fish.

Today we wrote a short paragraph based on a photo then asked chatgpt to make it better. After we finished doing that we asked AI image generator to make a picture to go with the story.
Here is my story before:
It’s too late, I’m doomed. I sat on the end of the red poppy out of breath with no escape from the praying mantis and it doesn’t really help that my wing is broken and unable to move. The mantis stared at me with its menacing eyes, slowly creeping towards me ready to pounce at any moment now. “What do I do, what do I do?” I thought to myself, darting my eyes around looking for an answer to my question. I continued to look for an escape as the mantis grew closer and closer to me. When I was about to give up and accept my fate, I heard the sound of flapping wings so I looked up and saw my friends flying at the Praying mantis trying to get it to run away. They flew right into the Praying mantis, pushing him off rose, what followed still haunts my nightmares.
And after:
It was too late. I was doomed. Perched at the edge of a red poppy, out of breath and paralyzed by fear, I had nowhere to run. My wing—broken, useless—hung limply at my side. And the praying mantis, with its cold, unblinking eyes, crept toward me, inch by inch, poised to strike. “What do I do? What do I do?” I panicked, eyes darting in every direction, desperate for an escape that didn’t exist. The mantis loomed closer, its spiked limbs shifting with eerie precision. The world seemed to hold its breath alongside me. Just as I was about to surrender to the inevitable, I heard it—fluttering wings cutting through the air. I looked up. My friends. They came diving out of the sky, fearless, wings flashing in the sunlight. In a blur of movement, they struck the mantis, driving it off the rose with sheer force. It tumbled into the shadows below. What happened next still haunts my dreams.

This week we have been working on making a design on a fish to go on a wall in New Brighton. I decided to draw a beach design to match with New Brighton’s beach and I also added a person chilling on the beach with an umbrella and a beach ball.

This week we have been reading a class novel called Hatchet and it’s about a thirteen year old boy who goes on a plane to see his dad but it crashes and he has to survive in the forest alone. At the moment we’re at chapter 5 and the plane just crashed. Anyway we did some activities while we listened to the story and one of them was drawing what we thought Brian (The main boy) looked like, then added labels.
Here is mine:
