Sandra Silberzweig

On the first week of school, we  have been learning about Sandra Silberzweig. We know that she was born in the 1960's in Toronto Canada. Sandra uses  different patterns in her art and uses warm, cool, secondary, primary and complementary colors. Now, Sandra lives with her husband and two sons.

This is my art portrait. 

Would you like to create an art as creative and abstract as Sandra's.

ALL KINDS OF ANGLES?!?!

Math is my favorite subject because it is challenging and it is also fun to do. This term, we have learned about times tables, leap years, money, fractions, addition, subtraction and angles. I really enjoyed fractions like improper to mix fractions.

Ex.

6/5 = 1 1/5

Divide 6 with 5 = 1 r.1

I also enjoyed working out angles and parallel and perpendicular lines. 

Perpendicular - lines that meet and an angle to 90' degrees

Parallel - lines that doesn't meet but has the same distance continuously.

Angles

- Acute 

Less than 90'

- Right

Exactly 90'

- Obtuse 

More than 90' less than 180'

- Straight

Exactly 180'

-Reflex

More than 180'

We also have Studyladder accounts because it helps us with our learning. Our teacher had set us an activity in Studyladder so that every week, we can finish 3 math set activities.

WOW! CRYSTALS!

This Term 2 was great, I learned a lot of learning. We created lots of stuff like Hope Sunflowers, letters that's based on Anzac war and kiwiana clay arts. We also researched early lives about Hone Heke (the first Maori chief to sign the Treaty of Waiting) Edmund Hillary who climbed the summit of Mount Everest and Kate Sheppard who is in our New Zealand $10 note. We have literacy, math and personal goals to work on this term too. We are also training for cross country. We run every Tuesday and Thursday. Every Thursday ( not really every ) we do Science and Chemistry in different classrooms. 


We've made crystals out of borax and boiling water 


Ice cream 



We also burnt types of fabrics and time
how long they took to burn.



Have you made crystals before?
