Pirates Cipher Weels

Hello Everyone! Wow it has been two weeks since I last posted! Wow and I do miss blogging but I did have some fun in the holidays oh and speaking of Holidays what did you do in the Holidays? Comment down below what you did in your Holidays cause I went to Hammer Springs had a fun sleepover with my Best Friends had lots of Star bucks which was so good! And i also ate a lot of junk food but it's okay! And we also watched Frozen 2 again because it is so good and I had some quality time with my Friends and Family which was really fun! But now I am her back again at school. But it's okay at least I am back with a positive attitude and I am posting really good content now!

So for this term's Topic I guess is Pirates which I found was pretty interesting and a wee bit crazy but it was really fun learning about it! And I still want all of you to be careful cause this Virus is still going around and I don't want it to spread so wash your hands for 20 seconds and practice your social distancing if you are still quarantine and my country is in level 1 and I am glad we are COVID FREE here in New Zealand but still be careful and if you are sick stay home. Like they say Stay Home save lives! Okay now let's get onto the real school stuff!

So like I said this term well half of this term our School is going to be learning about Pirates! And here is a little quick tip on Pirates: Pirates used Cipher weels because they didn't want People to know what they were saying in Pirate Language and just in normal language. So what we did was make our own Cipher Weels with letters and numbers and hide a crunchie bar and put out like messages around the school on a sticky note and on that sticky note we would put the different codes to spell out what we were saying.

Here are two pictures of my Cipher weel of the back and the front and we couldn't add J and Q cause Pirates didn't use those letters:


Stay tuned for more Pirate work! Arrr!

Ulker

So everybody welcome back to my blog and today's blog post is going to be about Reading! So this week we didn't do our usual Morning Reading routine. Since the Matariki stars appear in late May or Early June. So the whole class for Reading we had to pick between a few countries that was related to Matariki. There was Japan, Turkey and so many others! So the Country I chose was Turkey and what it was about was Ulker which is the seven sisters and I am not going to say much and I only added quite a little bit in my DLO because I couldn't find much information about it so sorry about that but in my next blog post I am sure to make sure there is a lot information for you guys to read!

I decided to do a Canva so here it is:

Something I enjoyed was making this DLO and adding the info that I could add!

Something I found Difficult was finding and looking for info about it!

Stay tuned for more work stay safe!
