Ravenclaw with Felicity

In term 2 week 9 we looked at unpacking sentences  and what it means. Whenever someone starts unpacking a sentence Felicity told us you always have to always begin with "I think that means". For example It is a commonly held opinion that the lion is the king of the beasts. I think that means a lot of people think that the lion is the biggest and the grandest of all animals.

Immersion with Felicity

Today for immersion we looked at plants and the process of photosynthesis. Photo in Greek means light and synthesis means putting it together. Felicity gave us some study ladder tasks about plants giving us energy. And how if one animal from the food chain suddenly disappeared it would affect the whole food chain. We also did a fun activity about sorting a pile of photo's into living and non-living. But there was an argument about if sea anemone are a animal or a plant, then we asked felicity and she told us they were half plant half animal.

Writing explanation

In week 8 term 2 for raven claw with felicity we did writing explanations. My explanation was about why we need plants to live. we started off with a P.E.E.L plan which stands for point, example, explain and link. one of my key reasons for my explanation was that they give us oxygen through the photo synthesis process.

Making a roller coaster

For immersion we were looking at the kinetic and potential energy in roller coasters. Amy gave us a link to make our own roller coaster. When I first started this I thought it was going to be easy but as I started both of my  rating stayed down, but eventually I got my safety rating up but my fun ratings stayed down. After some time all my ratings went up.

What is energy

Last week we learnt about kinetic and potential energy. Our follow up was to do this slideshow.
