In this project I was working with Mollyanne and we decided to create an online children's book.

In this project we decided that our success criteria was:

Eye catching covers

An interesting title

Colourful illustrations  

Jokes spread around the book

Rhyme if possible

Overall our project met this criteria because our book had all of these traits and was successful.

This is our final product

In Lauren and I's test we got 17/19 a good result meaning we only had a couple of activities we do before completed.

In this unit I have been learning about:

The parts of speech.

The types of nouns.

The types of sentences.

In this unit, I found challenging remembering the difference between collective noun,abstract noun and noun

Something new I learnt was Learning what different words meant and fully understanding them so I can use them in my writing or reading

identify the use of effective structure and language that helped the author make their point stronger.

In the year 9/10 standard group we have been learning about Authors purpose. We have been learning  to  identify the use of effective structure and language that helped the author make their point stronger. if you would like more information check the link above.

flag research

Here is an example of my learning that we have done about the changing of the flag.
My opinion with the flag changing is that we keep our current flag for many reasons. Some of those reasons are in the doc on that link so check it out for more.

Making Inferences

Everyday everyone makes inferences without even knowing. You must be wondered get what is an inference. It's when you look at a picture or something or someone and you think what they are doing or what they might be thinking.
E.g: if you look at a picture with a lonely girl
I think that she is:
~ Sad
~ She is thinking about something
~ Depressed
~ Lonely

All these things I have come up with mean I have inferred on a picture or something. So basically on a daily basis we always infer on things like for instance you could infer on your dog if she/he is barking then you might think that there's someone at the door or she/he wants somethignto eat or something else , see it's so easy to make an inference. You might think it's hard at first but you will realise that you infer on things all the time without knowing.

reading prove it

This is my reading prove it. My prove it is to prove that I can use Google search well and correctly.

Firstly I will find a large image of a cat. first I searched cat then I went to images on the tool bar. after that i went to search tools and then clicked size. I then clicked large and waited for the page to load.

finally I will get the most update information on elephants. first i searched up elephants then i went to the tool bar and clicked news. I then went to the tool bar and clicked time and changed it to most recent.

that is my prove it thank you for reading.
