The Great Trade Off Game!

Today we played a game as part of PrEP. The game was called the great trade off game. We played in groups of three, I was with Samara and Mackenzie.

You need 3 differnt coloured set of 30 beans for your group and call one colour free time, one money and one fun. Each person needs 3 "fun" 3 "money" and 5 "free time" tokens. Each person needs two coloured counters each. You roll the dice and whatever number it is you go on that number goal. The game board has different squares on it with differnt words some are: Wash the car, Make bracelts to sell and Go to the movies. For each one you get or lose counters of each type like wash the car might be +3 money -2 Free time and -1 fun. The winner was the closest one to our goal. Samara won, I got second and Mackenzie got 3rd! Overall our group thought the game was lots of fun!

We have also been doing more finacal literacy things like: Studdyladder literacy (ranging from year 4 to 7 things),We also (in groups) planned a trip around the world my group went to Rio de janeiro!, we also did a financal words bingo!

I have learnt lots about Financal Literacy during this PrEP like how to save,spend wiseley and how to have lots of fun while doing maths!

Main Stars-Art Project

For my art progect I made a gods eye which is woven with wool.
I think they look awesome and they are really easy to make and you can use lots of different colours of wool to get different patterns.
Its a good activity for all ages and is a good thing to do in your spare time.

This is the video I used.

Campfire story

WALT:Use the correct tense
WALT:Use exciting vocab 
CAMPFIRE STORY 
"George, pass me another marshmallow" Yelled Fred overtop of the blaring fire and the howling wind. The marshmallow whisled past his face and into the bush behind him so Fred jumped up to retrive the pink squishy marshmallow. "Did you see that?" Whispered Fred "In the bush, I thought I saw somthing with big eyes, there were two of them!" 
"Fred, I think your seeing things, you might need your eyed checked. Just sit back down and have another marshmallow". 

So Fred sat back down and reached inside the multicoloured bag and grabbed a squishy marshmallow and started roasting it. As soon a Fred raised the marshmallow to his mouth "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" George shrieked and stuttered "Fr...Fr...Fred,BEHIND YOU!" he ran off screaming"Monster MONSTER!" Fred looked behind him and saw two bright blue gleaming eyes staring back at him. Fred shivered as a gush of wind blew threw the green forest trees put out the fire.He wished George was here, he had a black belt in karate. 

Bad thoughts rushed through his mind like "Are they dangerous ""What are these creatures" and"What are they doing here" . Fred had no weapon or anything to sheild him so he threw a marshmallow, he knew what Fred would of said:" Pathetic" The creatures stepped out of the darkness into the light of the fire "Gruffalos!" Fred had read the book a million times and here infront of him was a gruffalo, a real live gruffalo and a baby gruffalo! Fred threw another marshmallow, double pathetic.  The big gruffalo Roared and the baby Gruffalo screamed "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh" and ran foward snached the marshmallow bag and ran back. 

CRACK!
Fred had also read harry potter a million times. The grufflos has just apparated like witches and wisards do in the magical world.Apparting was just like teleporting and Fred always wished he could do it. 

"George,Its ok to come out now, they've gone!" Fred heard the faint sound of someone scrambling down a tree, landing on the forest floor and the noise of George's squeaky shoes coming closer. He was glad he had more matches and marshmallows.

THE END!
