Picturesque Pluto!

In the holidays astronomers found out that they had the most incredible thing in their hands. It could gather different facts about Pluto. Also it was the size of a piano! It was like a small satellite. The small thing that is the size of a piano that looked like a satellite had taken very good photos of Pluto. It can send the photos from far,far,far,far,far,far away. Did you know that Pluto isn't blue or grey, it is brown and reddish.

Movenote

Miss Fortes and O'Neill class have been thinking of ways to share their learning,

Today some of us learned how to use Movenote.   Joseph Chavez is a Movenote ninja and he taught us how to get Movenote working on our Chromebooks.  He worked with Miss Fortes to teach us how to use movenote too.  

Some of us felt annoyed because we couldn't use movenote.  Genete said that "it was a bit tricky because the internet was slow."  

However, Gargee managed to successfully make a movenote video.  Here is a link to the video that Gargee made.

ANZAC Biscuits

Did you know that ANZAC biscuits were made by wives and mothers and sent to the soldiers at war. These biscuits were really good because the ingredients didn't 'go off' quickly and the biscuits could still be eaten after a long trip to the soldiers.

These are the ingredients we used to make our ANZAC Biscuits.

 

 

Miss Fortes baked them during lunch break and this is what our biscuits looked like!  Delicious!

 

We went back to class and pretended that we were soldiers eating their biscuits in the safety of their trenches.

If you want to make some of these biscuits at home, you can find the recipe here
