Then and Now

 

 

In this blog post we were learning about what it was like in the 1900's and what it's now. For this task we had to, interview Mrs Leggett, as she lived in the 1900's. We copied down notes in a group, because we didn't want to forget what she said. Next, we designed a title page, and got to work on our writing. After we had finished writing, we had to add in a backgrounds and pictures to help the reader understand what were saying. Finally (now),  we have to reflect on our learning in our blog post.

One thing I enjoyed about this task, was interviewing  Mrs Leggett because it was a different experience, and I enjoyed predicting what Mrs Leggett was about to say. I also enjoyed this because we got to work in a team to decide what we were going to write down, and how much detail. 

I communicated with the reader, because I put in audio to help the reader understand. I also used pictures, title page, and text, so that there should be a way for everyone to understand.  

I organised my idea's/information I had gathered in a way that I think people will understand, because I made titles when I was talking about Now or Then, so the reader's would now when I'm switching from Now and Then.

I choose the right source of information, because Mrs Leggett lived in the 1900's and was able to provide the answers that we needed to complete the task.

I stayed organised and managed my time effectively, because I finished my task on time and made sure everything was the way it needed to be, to show that I researched, communicated, and was a self manager.

Change poem

 

We were learning to write a poem about what we think change is. What we had to first was brainstorm, we had to write down sentences on a piece of paper of things that has happened to us (it had to involve change). Then we had to use a template and copy our ideas into it. 

I found it challenging to put my idea into a poem as I haven't made to many poem's in my life. I also found it hard to think of a lot of ideas of change because there was a lot of spaces we had to fill out to complete the task.

I found it easy to publish my poem once I competed the writing bit of it because I'm used to google slides and I know how to change the font and font size as well as the background colour.

I enjoyed this because as well as making a poem we shared idea's about what change looks like in our life and others. Doing let me learn a bit more about other people lifes.

Next time I need to change the bit were I say "Small kittens going from a fluff ball to grown up cats" because I need to try and find another word than "going".
