Hello guys ! For my recent art project, I created a colouring picture featuring a cartoon octopus. I focused on making the design engaging by drawing curved arms and giving the octopus a cheerful expression. I am proud of how the picture turned out, and I believe it will be enjoyable to colour in.
Hey everyone! For my Summer Learning Journey Blog , I made a fact file about centipedes. I found out some really cool stuff while working on it. Here’s a fun fact: even though they’re called centipedes, they don’t actually have 100 legs! Some have less than 20 legs, and some have over 300. I never knew that before. Making this fact file was actually pretty interesting!
Hello and welcome! Today, I want to share an inspiring experience: making a prosthetic leg for Mosha the Elephant.
Mosha’s story is truly remarkable. When she was just seven months old, Mosha stepped on a landmine near the Thai-Myanmar border. The injury cost her part of her front leg, making it difficult for her to walk and grow like other elephants. Thankfully, she was brought to the Friends of the Asian Elephant Hospital, where a team of dedicated veterinarians and engineers worked together to give her a new chance at life.
Hello and welcome! I hope you’re having a wonderful day. Today, I want to share something creative I did: I drew a picture of a spider web. It was a fun challenge to capture all the intricate patterns and delicate lines that make a spider web so fascinating. Drawing it helped me appreciate how much detail and beauty can be found in nature.
This week for Inquiry, we made a Google DLO about the Great Fire of Chicago. In my DLO, I explained how the fire started, what happened during the disaster, and how the city was rebuilt afterwards. I also included interesting facts and pictures to help tell the story. It was really cool to learn about such an important event in history and to share what I found out with my classmates. Check out my DLO to see what I learned about the Great Fire of Chicago!
This week for Reading, we made a DLO about how things have changed for women from the 1800s to 2025, and what things are still the same. In our project, we looked at what life was like for women in the 1800s, compared it to how things are now, and noticed some things that haven’t changed much. Our DLO explains the differences in rights, jobs, and daily life, but also points out what challenges women still face today. Check it out to see what we learned!

We tried out for the sprints , then it was the afternoon . The sprints were on , and there were so many different classes watching ! Luckily the Red Team won the Race , and we celebrated for our team .
In this blog post, I talk about making a Google DLO (Digital Learning Object) all about being a game developer! I wanted to show what it’s like to create your own video games, from coming up with ideas to actually designing and building the game. In my Google DLO, I explained the skills you need, like coding, problem-solving, and creativity. I also shared some cool facts about game development and why it’s such an exciting job. Check out my DLO to learn more about how you can start your journey as a game developer!
Hey everyone! I made an AI video for Reading this week and it was really cool. In the video, you’ll see how we used AI to make our stories more fun and interesting. We wanted to show how reading can be awesome when you mix it with technology. Check it out and see what I did!
LI: Understanding How Hard It Was To Earn Incomes From Shearing Sheep
This week for Reading , we made a DLO about the 1891 Shearers Strike
But If you don’t know what is the backstory behind it , let me explain :
The 1891 Shearers Strike: Standing Up for Workers’ Rights
What was the 1891 Shearers Strike?**
The 1891 Shearers Strike was a significant event in Australia’s history when sheep shearers across New South Wales decided to take a stand for their rights. They wanted better pay and working conditions, and when their demands weren’t met, they chose to go on strike. This meant they stopped working in the shearing sheds, refusing to shear any more sheep until their requests were taken seriously.
**Why did it happen?**
The strike occurred because many shearers felt they weren’t being treated fairly. They worked long hours and were paid little for the hard work they did. The shearers believed they deserved a fair wage and better conditions to work in. It was also a time when workers were beginning to organize and fight for their rights more than ever before.
**When did it take place?**
The strike began in April 1891 and went on for several months, showcasing the shearers’ determination to stand up for what they believed was right. It was a tough time, and many families faced hardships during this period, but the shearers stayed united in their cause.
**Who was involved?**
The main players in the Shearers Strike were the sheep shearers themselves, who came together to demand better treatment. Additionally, there were those who owned the shearing sheds, called squatters, who were less willing to give in to the shearers’ demands. This led to clashes and tensions between the two groups. The strike also drew attention from the broader community and helped inspire future workers’ movements across the country.
### Conclusion
The 1891 Shearers Strike was a key moment in the journey toward workers’ rights in Australia. It showed how important it is for workers to be heard and to come together for fair treatment. Even today, the lessons learned from this strike can still inspire us to stand up for what is fair and just. Let’s remember the courage of those shearers and continue to support each other in our own journeys.
That is The Story behind it . And It is very bad that the Shearers didn’t get enough money for completing their jobs , even though they did it fast , they still got the same amount of money , everyday .
Anyways , after making the DLO , we blogged it , and checked for mistakes , and blogged it ,
This Task was good because you can understand the History of Australia , and what happened to shearers , back then .
