The egyptian sphinx

The egyptian sphinx

A sphinx has a body of a lion crouching down and a head like a human. The head has a nemes on top just like the pharaohs. The head is shaped like the pharaohs that is inside the pyramid. The pyramids were built to keep the pharaohs or kings safe to live in another life.The egyptians believed that the pharaohs could live on forever.

The sphinx were built to protect the pyramid from anyone  who tries to enter. In a myth to enter the sphinx they would tell a riddle and if you were right they would let you enter, but if you were wrong they would kill you and let you suffer a painful death.

Cartoons

I am learning direct speech through cartoons. We had fun doing these cartoons. Next time I hope we can do a story in cartoons.

The Synthesizer

This is a snapshot of my learning in Music. I was learning how to play the Synthesizer.
It was easy because all you had to do was press different keys! The Synthesizer generates wave forms and then subjects them to alteration in intensity, duration, frequency and timbre as selected by the composer or musician. Synthesizers are capable of producing sounds far beyond the range and versatility of conventional musical instruments. It produces electrical sound. 

Jump Rope at GI

Weeks ago we have been learning our new skipping routine for this year. We have been doing our music, our positions, the things we are going to do and so much more stuff had to be done. We have been waiting for this very special day to come. That day was when we would go into the GI shopping  center and show our skipping routine to the community. When had to walk to GI. It was a very ugly day. The grey clouds were covering the Sun and it was very windy. When we were walking into the GI centre I saw my uncle there standing next to some tree. He gave me five dollar note to put inside the the bucket to raise some money for the heart foundation. Each class was called up one by one to put their money into the bucket. I dropped my money and the five dollar note flew into the bucket. Mr Naidoo greeted the parents and gave the mike to Britney. Britney introduced Room 1 to come in the centre and show their routine. Next up was my class.
“ And here comes Room 9”.
.Everyone was cheering with joy. The music started and we began to jump. First we did side  to side and then we moved onto the slides and finally we did basic jump. After the basic jump we went into partners and we did front to back and side to side. The music changed and we grabbed the long rope and Melissa and  Asiana started to jump inside. The Music changed and Moko jumped in while the girls were doing double unders. Next Siua jumped in and did some push ups. Mr Ramkolowan was taking pictures and was filming us while we were skipping. After that we grabbed our ropes and made a cross. We jumped threw each rope two times and then we got into our clock and sat down. We waved our hands like an hour hand and a minute hand. And then the music stopped. We held our positions and ran back to our spot. It was really fun and I enjoyed skipping.
