Christmas Board Game

L.I To create an Board game and playing it with our younger students.                                                                                 

This is my Christmas Board I created. I created this by making a table of 10 and making it a fun and interesting game to play with our younger students. This game is just like snakes and leaders but instead of putting snakes I created Grinch and Santa. This Board game was about trying to from the start to the finish line first. We used an online dice that can help us move forward and get to the other side. This game is all about having fun and trying to get to the finish line first. Here are some of the rules to find out how to play:

How to help santa get from North Island to North Pole:

 

First role the dice to see how many steps you can take. Roll Dice 

Seconed whatever number your dice rolles take that amount of steps as example if it rolls a two then take two steps forward. 

If you land on a box that has a ladder you can go throught it(Shotcut). 

If you land on a grinch you have to take 5 steps back. 

If you land on a Santa you can take 5 steps forward. 

Speeches

              

This Week our year 7's who participated in saying our speech to be a leader. Today afternoon was the day we needed to read out speech. As I stood up in front of our audience I had the confidence to say my speech. As I was reading my speech I tried to get my teachers and audience hooked to make them vote me as their sport leaders for 2021. 

Operation Christmas Drop

L.I To write a summary of the story behind the Operation Christmas Drop in your own words.

                                                                                                        

This week for research  we learn about the operation Christmas drop. For the last 68 years the men and women of the US air force who are based at Andersen Air Force Base in Guam have been using a pilot training drill to drop much needed supplies to the people who live on the 60 remote islands that surround Guam. 

Operation Christmas Drop allows the people living in these remote islands to sustain a better life and the communities to flourish.

I think this is a great way to help others and make a difference in peoples lives. These people are really grateful and happy.

Design Technology Challenge / Christmas Decorations

LI: To design and make a holiday decoration that fits the client brief.

For this term, The LS2 students designed and created Holiday Decorations using Hand Sewing . We created a DLO(Brainstorm) and a (Mood Board) with the information that can help us understand what we are going to make. Brainstorming the information helped us learn more about How,Why,What,Shape and Who. The Materials and equipment we used were Threads,felt,Cotton,String,Buttons,googly eyes and Paper. We needed to make sure that our decorations were 10cm big, so we started off by getting a ruler and measuring the length and the width. For my first decoration I decided to create a Dolphin. We used paper and a drawing pencil to help us create our first design. But firstly I needed to learn the type of sewing we’re doing. We learned three different types of hand sewing which is Blanket Stitch,Outline Stitch and a Running Stitch by learning how to use the different types of stitching we practised onto a 10cm square(made out of felt). After practising more and more we decided to create our decoration by creating our decoration we planned about. I really enjoyed working with others and working together to create the design. After completing my first design I decided to create a another one which was a Santa's Stocking I think I’ve improved a lot in my stitching.

 LI: To decorate the office tree.

After completing all our sewing , We deiced to go to the Panmure Bridge School office and  deiced to decorate the  Christmas tree.  We decorated the Christmas by putting our Hand Sewing decorations onto the tree. I really liked putting my sewing onto the decorations. I put my name on my decoration so visitors or guest knows I created that.
