Summer sounds

Today I managed to achieve another blog post, this time about Summer sounds (sounds you can hear in Summer in NZ) 

First, we started off by reading a poem about Summer sounds written by Jenny Bornholdt. Next, we were asked to highlight all of the sound words and words we don't understand. 

Then, the funniest part of this blog post... was to go outside and record summer sounds that we can hear on our Chromebook. Listen back to them and create our own Summer Poem. Anyways, here is my poem...

I also chose to Step it Up and narrate my poem using screencastify. So, here is my screencastify...

Black & White, Day & Night

The Summer Learning Journey has challenged me to describe all of the details in this piece of artwork above. This drawing is by MC Escher. Here is what I describe it as . . . A drawing in the countryside with a small town and river. One side represents night time and the other represents day time. There is also birds that meet in the middle them fly different directions. The drawing is symmetrical and the artist has payed a lot of attention making it look like the same town and the same place just at different times of the day. How would you describe this drawing/artwork above???
