My Diary Post Term 2 Week 2

Diary Post

Greetings diary! It's finally Term 2 of school and it's starting out well. I can't wait to tell you all about it.

I first want to tell you about our Inquiry launch because it was my favorite part of school. We get to watch the movie WALL-E at first. All the year 6's were here even some teachers. We each cuddled up with a cushion/pillow and got comfortable and watch the movie. The teachers decided that our main topic for this year in inquiry was about space. I think you should watch the movie WALL-E because it's a very interesting because it's a movie about robots and humans living in space because Earth was destroyed.

After watching the movie we packed up and then did a scavenger hunt. The topic was about SPACE and we got into teams of 3's or 4's. It was really exciting when it started even you might think it's fun. What the teachers did was they tied up some clues or lets just say questions with a string and tied them somewhere so that we can find it.

Another exciting event that's still happening is Terrific Tuesday which is an event where we choose an activity that we will do for the rest of the Term. We did our first session a couple days ago on Tuesday and I chose how to make PutiPuti flax flowers. 
This activity was an activity that counts weaving. In our first session we made mini paper flax flowers. It started out hard but then it got easier and easier till we got the hang of it.

We're also doing a new art project. I found it really interesting. The creation is called a Agamograph. An Agamograph is an art work where in one side there is a picture and the other side is a  drawing of the opposite of the drawing.

Those were some of the events that happened so far in Term 2. I had really fun doing all of these activities and you should too.
