Good day everyone.
For our reading group's reading tasks, we are learning what is skimming and scanning. For task one we had to learn about scanning. We read some information about scanning. Then we had to make a poster showing what is scanning.
Then for task two we had to learn what is skimming. Skimming and scanning is kind of the same but scanning is not about reading its about finding. Skimming is fast reading. Then I also made a pster about skimming.
Here is the two posters I made:

Cyber smart for the first week!!😄
Hello everyone.
This is another term since the holidays ended. Our teacher said we would be doing cyber smart for a few days because we haven't been doing cyber smart since last term. We were able to have time in our timetable for our cyber smart.
Our Teacher decided to have cyber smart every Monday. Our task for cyber smart is to know what is personal and private.Private information must be only talked about people you trust. Personal information are simple info about you. Like your favourites or what kind of pets you have.
Before sharing any info about you have to check if you can trust them or if your telling personal info about you. If you tell your private information about you to the internet you might be in trouble. We talked about what is personal and what is private for a while. Then we had to write what is personal and what is private.
Here is a picture of my work showing what is personal and what is private:

Creatures Activity Seventeen, Acrostic Poem
Hello readers and blogger. This is another Creatures activity. This time I'm going to make an acrostic poem but using an animals name. I used the name of the Rabbit.

Creatures Activity Fifteen Nest Making!!
Hola Readers and Bloggers. I will be nest making for Activity Fifteen, Creatures.
I had to make a nest using recycling materials. I add grass and twigs because birds used them at their nests. The bird doesn't have to come to the nest cause it looks weird.
I used a bowl, tape, newspaper, and scissors. I didn't really use scissors as much but it help me for something. I used the bowl to shape a nest. it doesn't look like a nest. The newspaper got wet because of the wet grass i put. (I didn't knew it was that wet.) I used grass to make the bird nice and cosy. Even though birds only use dry stuff i still used not dry stuff. It was hard shaping the nest.
Here is what it look like:

Creatures Activity Fourteen, Using Song Maker
Hello bloggers and readers. This is activity fourteen of creatures.
For activity fourteen I had to kind of create music using Song maker. While the music was playing I had to read a page out loud in my favourite book.
Of course I used my Duffy book, tom gates. If you haven't read my Duffy book blog post feel free to read it any time. I looked for a page to read in a tom gates book. I don't remember what the page was exactly but I think it was about tom gates birthday party. So I red a page while the music was on and while I had my screencastify on.
Here is the screencastify:

Creatures Activity Thirteen Sea Art
Greeting everyone. This is another blog post about the creatures. I'm nearly up to activity 20, YAY.
For Activity thirteen I have to create an artwork of underwater sea creatures. I looked up some ideas what I can create. I had a great idea what to do after search. I didn't copy the picture, the picture just made me an idea.
I looked around our house and used many materials. I used paper, pink highlighter, yarn, glue gun, paint and paint brushes. Of coarse i did the painting first. I got blue and silver paint. (I used my sister's paint). i had to leave it dry for a couple of minutes so while that was drying i started making seaweed and fishes. I didn't have black paper or any coloured paper so I used a highlighter to colour the paper and make different shapes. I used the yarn for making wavy lines to make it look like little waves.
Here is what it looks like:

Creatures Activity Ten, Mask Making
Good Day Everyone. You probably know that this is another blog post about the creatures.
So for Activity ten I had to create a mask of my favourite animal or creature.
In my head I knew what to do because I knew how a mask looks like. I know what it was gonna look like because making a bunny mask is kinda easy. A mask can be showing your mouth and eyes or just your eyes. I used paper, red felt, pencil, tape, glue and scissors to create my mask. I decided I wanted the mask to show my mouth. My mask doesn't look that good but i did try. It was kinda hard but I managed. I also used yarn so that the mask won't fall off. I hope it doesn't break though. I stuck in a few tapes so i think it will be fine. You might be familiar with my mask. Do you know what is familiar with it. It looks like Ariana Grande's mask (it actually doesn't the ears are to short).
Here is my mask: (it might look weird)
Thank you for reading this blog post.

What type of mask would you make?
Make sure to read The activity n first before the others.

Creatures Activity Eight, Movie Trailer
Hello readers, writers and bloggers this is another blog post about the creatures.
For Activity Eight I had to watch the secret life of pets trailer and write about what i think will happen next. I haven't watch the movie but here is what I think what it is about.
What I think the movie is about.
A new person comes in to Max's family. He is called Liam I think. That child is going to the preschool but the pets want to protect him by keeping him at home. The pets are also saving an animal that is locked up in a cage. Chloe the cat and snowball the rabbit are going to save the animal that is locked up. Max's has a new friend called Rooster. Rooster kinda trained max to be braver. Chloe and Snowball met a new friend called daisy.
I watched many trailers of it so I know some thing that will happen.

Creatures Activity Six, Merging two animals
Kon'nichiwa
everyone this is another blog post about the creatures.
This is activity six. For activity six I have to merge two animals together to make a new animal. That doesn't mean that I actually merge them in real life, it only means that I have to have my creative brain on and make a master piece of two animals drawn together to make a made up creature.
Of course I used my two favourite animals. I merged a Rabbit and a Seal. I choose this two animals because they are my favourite animals. The Seal is my second favourite of coarse. I then I drew a picture of a Seal and a Rabbit merged. I also mixed up the names of the Rabbit and the Seal to make a random name for my creature. I called it Raseal. I know it's not a very cool name but I did try to make up something to name it. I think when both of the animals are merged they will be stronger. The Raseal's Super power is asking to much questions. That means like irritating someone until their mind explode. It can also swim in the ocean because its a mixture of a seal. The Raseal's scent and hearing are really strong. It can either walk or swim. It has its own way of thinking to defeat its enemy.
Here is a picture of the drawing I made:

Creatures Activity Three, Homonyms
Hello, this is another blog post about the creatures activities.
Activity three: A homonym is a word that is spelled the same but has two different meaning. What are the different meaning's for bark and bat.
I have searched and finally found some homonym for bark and bat.
There are two different bats. There is one living thing and not living thing. The living bat is an animal that lives in caves. The other bat is used as a baseball bat or a bat for whacking in the air. For bark one is a doing word and one is a type of wood. A dog can bark that is one homonym of bark. Another homonym of bark is a bark of wood.(it is a type of wood. you can find barks at playground)
Anther homonym I know is fly that is an
insect and another fly that is a doing word.
Here is a picture if your confused what I mean

Creatures Activity Two, Soft or Spiky?
Hello again. This is activity two now. If you haven't read my activity one creatures well you should before reading this one.
Activity two: would you rather be a chinchilla or a porcupine.
I rather be a chinchilla then a porcupine. At first I wanted to be a porcupine but I did lot of research and i just seem to like a chinchilla better. A chinchilla looks like a rabbit but doesn't have long ears. Again my favourite animal is a rabbit so I would rather be a chinchilla. Even though the chinchilla doesn't have long ears and a fluffy cotton ball tail I would still want to be a chinchilla. A chinchilla has circular ears. Porcupines can get your attention easily because they have spikes at there back like a hedgehog but if you do a little research porcupines and hedgehogs don't have the same species. Even if chinchillas and porcupines are both rodents I would still choose chinchilla because its furry.
Here is what a chinchilla and a porcupine looks like:

Getting Duffy Books
We had our Duffy books ,hooray! We each had one Duffy book. We had to choose our Duffy book. We had already chosen what books we were going to get, I can't remember when it was but I'm sure we did it. I have been having Duffy books for ages and I like it. Books are a really great help for reading. We have silent reading and i think if we get Duffy books we wouldn't be bored in some of the books we were reading. The book I chosen is a Tom Gates book. I have been collecting Tom Gates books because it is so fun to read. You can learn knew things and create stuff inside the book. It lets you draw on the book or create something on the book. I haven't been reading it for long because I'm saving it for next term. I hope we get another Duffy book next term.
Here is a photo of my book:
