Rock’s Home School
Term 3 Week 8
Monday 4th September
Today I started the day off by doing geography about weather events and climate and their definitions, the definition of weather is the state of the atmosphere, describing for example the degree to which it is hot or cold, wet or dry, calm or stormy, clear or cloudy. On Earth, most weather phenomena occur in the lowest layer of the planet’s atmosphere, the troposphere, just below the stratosphere, and the definition of climate is the long-term pattern of weather in a particular area. Weather can change from hour-to-hour, day-to-day, month-to-month or even year-to-year. A region’s weather patterns, usually tracked for at least 30 years, are considered its climate.
I also measured some angles with a mini plastic inflexible protractor, the hardest angle is where my Nanna drew a 145 degree angle so I thought it was 150 but it was 145 and how I figured that out in the end is that my Nanna said that what I wrote for the 145 degree angle when I said was 150 was wrong.
Then I wrote a story but when I showed my mum and dad my mum said to erase it.
I then went to dance lessons and learning something called a thread which is where you lie down with your hand on the ground and then cross your legs then hold your back legs toe and then finish off by bending your arm and then your front leg goes through that arm brig hole and then you have completed the thread.
I finished the day off by going climbing to the gym crash CAWA event with free pizza.
Tuesday 5th September
This morning I did a page of science learning about dinosaurs and about their fossils and how the dinosaurs lived, a carnivore is a dinosaur that eats meat, an herbivore is a dinosaur that eats plants, and an omnivore is a dinosaur that eats meat and plants, dinosaur is made up of two Latin words, deino and saurus which means terrible lizard, a dinosaur is a reptile, it is like a lizard but doesn’t drag its belly on the floor, they either walk on two or four legs.
I also planned a holiday recount and did read and comprehension on one.
Then I played teach monster on my iPad to teach my little cousin Lachie letters and sounds.
I finished the day off by doing my website.

Today I did science of finding dinosars on my iPad and the first one I found is the Yunnanosarus it means yunan lizard its length is 7m, its height is 2m and its weight is 250 kg, the secnd dinosuar I worked on is the mystriosuchus, its meaning is spoon crocodile its length is 4m, and I dont know the height or how heavy it is.
I then did a page of writing 12 dinosaur names that my Nanna gave me, and I had to orginize them in alpabetical order, if there are two of the same letter on two dinosaur names for the second letter the one that is closer to A is the answer.
I then wrote a story about if I saw a dinosaur in the back yard and what to do and what to call it and I called it Lemington.
I then did some coloumn method with decimal and also I did it with subtractions.
