Hannah's Walkathon Reflection

Reflection for The Walkathon

(My team name: Leopards)

· Something I was pleased with was that my team worked together really well like when we were encouraging each other because it was quite a long way for us while we were walking.

· I really enjoyed learning different things about my group because some of the people I don’t know that much about.

· Something I found hard was thinking of a chant for our group because we had to rhyme the words.

· Something that made me think was how much time we spent walking all together because a full hour is 60 minutes and it is kind of different adding up the time. In the end we spent 1 hour and 18 minutes walking.

· Something I want to get better at is walking faster with my group and encouraging my team more.

What can I do about it?

I can encourage others more like when we are at a triathlon or something like that.

When I am walking with others, I can stay with them

The Grumpy Millionaire Connections

In our reading group, The Avengers we have been working on connections. This is what I created with the book The Grumpy Millionaire.

Quote:	Page:	My Connection:	Text to:
It looked 100 years old. The paint was peeling. Faded curtains were drawn across the dark, dirty windows.	Pg:6	This part reminds me of a movie called The Monster House.	Text to Text
Inside the room was dark and the air had an old dusty smell.	Pg:8	When I go into my dad’s ute it smells all dusty.	Text to Self
But instead of hitting the ball towards Mr Grabalott’s house, the bat cracked.	Pg:26	I was watching a program and a man snapped a baseball bat.	Text to World
Low branches	Pg: 7	This reminds me of when I hit my head on a low branch when me and my family were going for a walk.	Text to Self
Then stick them up in shop windows.	Pg:18	I had to put flyers in the windows of shops for my mum’s work.	Text to Self

With these connections, I chose one and then made a poster. This is my poster!

My Ipod Poem

My Ipod By Hannah Hansen

I have always been delighted.

When I was 9 I bought myself an Ipod.

I love it to pieces.

Any technology that I get

has never had anything wrong that needs repairing.

Unlike my brother.

I always create awesome homework on my ipod

and play games on it in the weekend.

I will take my ipod wherever I go and take photos.

   If I am lying in bed at night

and my ipod goes DING

and the light shines up

I will get up and see what it is that wants me.

I have always wanted a cool case

with a flip over case to protect the screen.

But unfortunately

I don’t have a fancy case like that.

When my ipod goes flat

I just look at it like I am so mad

but it always does nothing about it.

So I go and put it on charge and it turns back on again.

I STILL LOVE THAT IPOD

Interview with Shannyn

For the challenge tree I did the challenge that said to conduct an interview with someone special to me. Find out about their culture. This is what I created. I interviewed a lady by the name of Shannyn who is  my mother.  Hope you like it!

My One Minute Video

We have a challenge tree in our class and on it is lots of different things that you can do. What I have done is the One Minute Video and hope you enjoy my movie:-)

My Summary Of The Lupu Bridge

The Lupu Bridge (Steel Rainbow)

Facts:

• Shanghai, China
• Longest arch bridge in the world
• Main Span 550m

This bridge is called the Lupu bridge but nicknamed Steel Rainbow.  This bridge beat the last record holder which was simply 32m long. There is a river that is 50m below and in the bridge there is no visible support in the middle of the bridge only at each end. they say that people that are scared of crossing bridges should not cross this bridge. This bridge links 2 districts in Shanghai. They are  Luwan and Pudong.
