Wreath Challenge

This week we have been working on our Chrismas countdown. I have been working on a wreath the hard part was getting the shape of it and the easy part was making all the stars because I made one then copy them put them somewhere different.

Christmas Wrapping Paper Challenge

For the last few weeks of school, we are working on a Christmas cont down. The task that I did was Christmas wrapping paper I did a Kiwiana theme The hard part was trying to draw them and the easy thing was moving them around. 

ORIENTEERING, FIRE, FOOD

ORIENTEERING                     

For orienteering, we had to use a map and do like a scavenger hunt and find eight letters to spell out a word.
The hard part was at the end and trying to figure out a riddle and the word was burritos and the easy part was kind of reading the map because we have all ready learned how to use the map. 

                                   FIRE

For fire, we learned how to use flint and steel and how to make a fire. The hard part was trying to get a spark with the flint and I learned that you should put the small sticks and make a te pe shape then put the big sticks on top.


FOOD

For food, we had to get our potato and cut the top off then cut in the potato-like knots and crosses then put the ham and cheese in. The hard part for me was cutting off the top and the easy part was warping the potato in the tin foil. Then we made a banana dessert we had to put the marshmallow and the chocolate inside of the banana then wrap it up in a tin foil.

BackPack

This is my survival I put a water bottle, torch, first aid kit, and flint and steel. I put a first aid kit just in case you get hurt and other things. Then I put flint and steel so I can start a fire. Then I put a jacket just in case it rains, and water because I would get thirsty and if I drink it all I can fill it up at a flowing river.

FABULOUS FINISH

For the last two weeks, we have been working on our fabulous finish. I did more about me on Ghost the hard part was drawing the shoes and thinking of what to write. It took me six days to finish it, and in some of the boxes I did a little picture about what it said and I think I made it an overflowing jar of honey. 

Bush Survival

 It's important to know what to do when you are lost in the bush.

 Shelter

. Build away from creeks and rivers.

. Build on a dry, flat surface.

. Your shelter needs to protect you from the rain and wind.

Fire

. Make your fire where the wind won't directly blow on the fire.

.You will need tinder, kindling, and logs, the tinder is tiny and fluffy, and will spark the fire into life old dry grass makes great tinder. Kindling is pencil-sized pieces of wood that will build some real flames. Leaves and pine straw can also help the kindling along but you would have to heaps to keep it going.

Water

To find Also you need to be aware of animal tracks. You can often follow tracks right to a water source. Animals need water just as much as you do to survive, and they will know of any available water source. You should drink from the water that is flowing.

Basic first aid.

You will need a flew bandages, scissors, cotton, and maybe rope and some gloves and that's a basic first aid.

    

 signaling for help.
when you are signaling for help a good way is lighting a fire because the smoke will go up into the sky and people will see the smoke.

Shelter building

I and my troop worked together to make a shelter we went around the posts with the rope.

Then we tried to do each other ideas but they didn't work but then the teacher came and told us all to make it stable and won't let the rain and wind get in she suggested to but it low to the ground the find some things to put and the tarp to keep on the ground. The hard part was tying the rope around the two posts and the easy part was finding rocks and putting the tarp over top. We all worked as a team and to make our shelter but at the start, we all wanted to do a heap of our own ideas but it didn't work so we talked to each other and made it work.

I think our team was successful I would give it a 5/5 because we got it done and we worked as a team.

Research

 This week I did research.
I research about Jason Reynolds, the hard part was finding heaps of info about him and it was hard finding out what to research about him.

Tent Review

What was the hardest thing? Getting the poles out from the tent.

What worked well? Putting the poles through the tent because the pole would come apart.

What did you learn? To go slowly and read the instructions.

Tent Plan

The tent we are aiming to make is a tarp and rope tent. To make this we are going to need two trees so that we can tie the rope to. Then we put a tarp over the top of the rope.

To make the next tarp and rope tent we are going to tie a rope around two trees so it makes a rope line then we are going to put a rope through the holes and tie that to the trees so it makes a triangle that we can fit under. We chose these tents because we thought that they were easy to make and that they had a nice shelter.

Creation Station

This is my Chapter Chat that I did this week. I  did creation Station. The hard part was drawing and coloring because it took a long time to draw motivation mobile. tationCreation Station
