Sign Language Day 11 (Distance Learning)



Today was my favorite we have had so far. I really enjoyed learning about sign language and how deaf people live. It was fascinating reading about how children went to school when they were deaf in the 1900s. I will definitely keep practicing my signing it was very fun. I learnt how to say my full name, introduce myself, please, thank you, mum, a few colors and nearly know the whole alphabet.
Can you say your name in sign language?

Day 6 Move it (Distance Learning)



Today was about dancing I enjoyed this topic since I do Hip Hop, I found difficult to come up with a dance because I couldn't find  a song I liked and was upbeat. So I just decided to go with a slow song. I think I should've put more dance moves into my dance because there is quite a few pauses.

Sugar Day 1



Today was the first day of distance learning our topic was Sugar. I learnt a lot about sugar and what it does to our bodies, my favorite activity was creating the poster because I got to be creative and there was less structure.  I was surprised to learn how much teaspoons of sugar was in each food item and drink. Now before I eat something I will try work out how many teaspoons of sugar there is.
