Pirate shanty

Hello Bloggers,
This term for half the term our school is learning about pirates and for reading one of our tasks was to create a DLO on pirate talk.
I found this task fun and easy.
I did this with a group of friends and after doing a bit of thinking I came up with a pirate shanty we could do.
My group thought it was a good idea so we took a recording of us singing our pirate shanty, im sorry if our singing is really bad.
I hope you enjoy our pirate shanty and please leave a comment of what you think.

Cipher wheel

Aloha Bloggers,
In topic we have been learning about cipher wheels and in the war men would use it to send codes to the enemies and the enemy would haft to decode the message and fast in case it had important information.
There have been codes that have never been figured out.
So in class we created a cipher wheel and gave it to a buddy and we would give them a number on the start of a letter.
I stuck sticky notes all around the school and then I gave my buddy a note to start with and then she had to find the other notes which would lead her to the treasure. the treasure was a Crunchie bar.
Here is a picture of my cipher wheel.

The onion Wives

Hi Bloggers,
Matariki is coming up very soon and I am very excited.
Our class has been doing a lot of research on Matariki, and we have been learning about the different myths that are believed in different countries.
Our task was to pick a country and look at the myth they believed for the Pleiades ( Matariki).
At first I picked the Egypt Myth, but I couldn't find anything really and it was talking about different stars so I decided to go with India.
I looked at the onion wives story and I was really interested I thought the myth was really cool.
I made a DLO about it and I want to share it with you guys.
I found using my own words to describe the story a little hard but then I got the hang of it.

Here's my story hope you enjoy.
