September 13th original assignment for create your own superhero

This was placed on the school's website page on Monday, September 13th.  This is the original or first part to create your own superhero.

Create Your Own Superhero!

 

According to Inquiries Journal: a superhero has a combination of characteristics like super strength, telepathy, super intelligence and most importantly they fight against the wrongdoing of their arch-nemesis/enemy.

 

Fill in the following list to begin creating a superhero(You can fill in as many/few as you want):

1.       Name

2.       Special powers

3.       Alter ego (some superheroes hide their identity and go by a normal everyday alter ego/person)

4.       Weakness

5.       Arch nemesis

6.       Costume

7.       Trademark image/symbol(like a spider for Spiderman or the letter S for Syndrome)

8.       Gadgets (tools to help the superhero…NOT weapons)

9.       Back story/history (explain how they got their powers)

10.   Sidekick (an assistant/someone to help them out)

 

Tips: keep it simple and based on someone you may know and avoid superheroes that already exist -make them different than any current superhero.

 

Once you are finished, write a short paragraph about your superhero. You can also make a sketch of them.  When you return to class, please bring your outline, paragraph, and sketch.  I cannot wait to see what you create!

5FI final ELA project: topic of your own choice

Posted: May 19, 2020

Starting last fall, as a class, we gathered information about Oceans.  We read books, watched videos, and searched the internet for facts and details.  After everyone was given a more specific topic about oceans, we made notes from these sources and picked the most important information and started writing a descriptive report in paragraphs.  Some even had an illustration(picture), map or chart to label to go with their topic. 

Now, you get to choose any topic you are interested in – to learn more about or to share with me if you wish.  Once you have gathered all your information, you can choose to share it in a:

  • Poster- with a title and labeled facts and details and illustrations (drawings)/graphics (pictures).
  • Descriptive report – put all your facts and details in full sentences in 3 paragraphs: an introduction, middle and conclusion.
  • Pamphlet – fold your paper in three.  The first page is like a title page, the other 5 sides can be filled in with information and graphics.
  • Power point – a mix of images and facts/details on 3-5 slides.

Once you are finished, ask a parent to take a picture of it (poster/report) and send it to me, or send me your power point to my email: christina.savoy@nbed.nb.ca. 

 

Don’t forget to source your facts/details by listing the URL address of the sites where you got some good information.  If you used a book, list the title and author.  If you found a great video to help you out, list the title and URL.  It is always important to show where you found your information!

Here are some sites from class that may help you out:

 

1- kidtopia                                       5. kidrex
2- GoGooligans                                 6. Fact monster
3- Kiddle                                         7.cybersleuth
4-kidzsearch
