What Is Culture?

Welcome back!

This week we have started our new PBL for this term.
It is all about culture.
We were set a task to create a blog post explaining what culture is.
Here is what culture means to me:

Culture is what you call your background.
If your family is from Australia then you have an
Australian background. Your culture can have special things that they celebrate.
Your culture might play a special sport or eat a special food.
Culture is special to us because it helps us to identify each other.
I am from Malta and Ireland but I don't celebrate any special traditions from there.
I celebrate Catholic traditions such as Christmas and Easter.

About Malta:

Cuisine,

The food in Malta is made up of a mixture of Italian and English food.

National dish:Stew tal-Fenek (Rabbit Stew)

My PBL

Hi and welcome back! Today I am going to be sharing my PBL slide with you. (Please Note this has not be fully edited so there may be some mistakes)  I hope you enjoy this. This term we our main question has been, How can we use our hands, head and heart to create a healthier me? After we discussed this question we rotated round all four teachers and learnt about four different subjects,

1. Brain Science
2. Mindfullness
3. Physical Activity
4. Nutrition    

We chose which one we liked the best and then we carried on our investigation.  We wrote a question and started researching for it. We then made an action plan and filled it out. Down Below is my PBL slide and I will do my action plan is another post.

Lit Club

Lit club is a club that our school runs for year 5-8. It is run by Mrs Earl and Miss Hansen.  At lit club it is all about books!  You can earn three badges, Bronze, Silver and Gold. To get these badges you have to do a series of tasks like,  Library duties, making a book review or quiz, an author presentation and lots of other things. Sometimes we play games and share books. So far at lit club I have earned a bronze badge and I have nearly earned my silver. Lit club is really fun and even people who don't like books should come along and check it out.

Comment question: Do you like books?

Thanks for reading, Harriet
