Hide-And-Seek Numbers

Walt: Solve multiplication problems.


Task Description: We had this as our maths task. We had to find out what numbers they were, and where they went to.

Eating Crickets

Walt: Engage the reader by using interesting vocabulary.

Have you ever eaten dead crickets before?, and I mean real dead crickets.

I don’t think you have and if you haven't you should try it is scrumptious. Well, today was not a typical Thursday. Mrs Stickland had ordered dead crickets. It had finally arrived. We were going to have our very own Fear Factor.

When Mrs Stickland opened the package I started feeling queasy. Before we started we had some spew supplies just in case somebody didn't feel so good. Luckily we had some chocolate flavoured mud to top it off. When I had my first cricket it was surprisingly really flaky, then I had another. At the end I had eaten 14 dead crickets.

At the end of our experience, it was actually pretty cool. Once in a lifetime I would like to do that again but not any time soon. They were a bit smelly but once you get used to it, it won’t smell that much. So that is the end of our P.E.S Fear Factor.

Task Description: This experience was weird but tasty. I did feel petrified at first but I got over that. Cool experience hope to do it again some day.

Food Web

Walt: Make connections across multiple texts. Task Description: Explain to people what a food web/food chain is. So I was practically just getting lot's of images. Then find out what one eats what.
