Spanish My Map

 We are learning Spanish this term.  For our first task we had to create a Google My Map called “The Spanish Speaking World”.  On our map we had to locate and pin Spain and at least 10 other countries where Spanish is the official Language.  There is actually 21 countries in the world that have Spanish as their main language. For each pin we put in a fact and a photo for each country. Click on the markers to see my facts. This task was quite easy for me.

Whos that pest?

This week in reading me and my class were working on this "Who is that animal pest?" slide as an introduction to our reading topic. We had to read the clues and use the DOC website to solve the problems. Then we had to find a picture and 2-3 facts about each of the pest on the answer slide. I found this activity quite easy to do because I know alot about animals already.

Blog check

Today we reviewed our blogs. We looked at what we have been blogging about, what type of posts we have been creating and how many posts we have done. I found that I post things about Inquiry most and that I have not posted anything on maths so my goal is to post at least 3 maths post by term 4.
 I have found that I post more things with photos and writing than any other things so my goal is to do more posts with slides in them.
