SLJ week 2 Monday
Today I did a science experiment making a xylophone. I explain what I did in my screencastify.
I also did the experiment using paper. I prefer the sounds the glass xylophone makes because it is louder and you can tell the difference in high and low pitch.

I commented on Josh's blog. I like his blog post because the picture of the pancakes got my attention. My comment is a good quality comment because I was kind, I told Josh how I count syllables by clapping which is helpful and I was being kind because I said keep up the good work.

The BFG
My book I am reading at home is The BFG. My favourite author is Roald Dahl. The BFG is about Sophie and the Giant. He is a kind giant but other giants are mean to him. Sophie stays with the BFG in his cave. He looks after her and hides her when the bad giants come.
I like reading every night before I go to sleep.

Winter is a cold season.
I am freezing when I go outside.
Number of animals that hibernate.
The frost is where lots of animals are at
Every day a bear sleep at winter

Autumn Poems
Under me there are old crisp leaves
The farmer plant their seeds in the soft soil
Under the trees there are crisp leaves in the ground
My feet are cold from the frozen grass
Now all the leaves turn red, brown, orange
