Autumn Learning Journey: Activity 20 – Hibernation Hut

During this school holidays, there is this programme called Autumn Learning Journey. It is where you complete as many activities as you can. One of the activities is making a place for hibernation. Hibernation is when the animals have a big long sleep during the winter months and wake up when it’s spring. It could be as simple as a blanket on ropes between trees or as complacated as an elaborated hut. I made a hut outside using what was about to be rubbish and the space between trees. This is what it looks like.

How would you make your hut?

During this school holidays, there is this programme called Autumn Learning Journey. It is where you complete as many activities as you can. One of the activities is making some Anzac Biscuits for Anzac Day. Anzac Day is on the 25th of April and remembers the people who died in the first and second world war. Anzac stands for Australia New Zealand Army Corps and is celebrated in both Australia and New Zealand. Anzac biscuits uses the main ingredient of oats because it doesn’t go off so easily and was easy to store. Originally, Anzac Biscuits were square so I made them square. Here are some pictures of me making my Anzac biscuits.

What biscuits do you like to eat?

Autumn Learning Journey: Activity 4 – Autumn in Minecraft

During this school holidays, there is this programme called Autumn Learning Journey. It is where you complete as many activities as you can. One of the activities is making an Autumn garden in Minecraft. I did my Autumn garden on a flat world.

First of all, I created the boundary. Then, I dug up some of the grass to make a path. I accidentally made one side bigger than the other. On the big side, I mine the grass and refilled it with water. On the other side, I ended up having nothing in it. I was first thinking of planting wheat but I found out that it was impossible on a flat world. So I place podzol around the water and planted mushrooms instead.

I made a tree with the leaves red, orange and yellow to represent Autumn. I place pumpkins around the trunk. I made a pen and spawned a fox named Autumn. I used a fox because google showed up the a fox is and Autumn animal. I spawned heaps of chickens to feed the fox, accidentally let the chickens out, spawned heaps of other animals to even it out. I spawned more foxes outside and lots more chickens in the pen. After a while, more foxes joined Autumn and I ended up feed Autumn and  whole bunch of her friends. I spawned a bit too much animals so the world is a bit glitchy.

I am riding a horse to take my screenshots because it gets me a better height to adjust and capture.

What would you put in an Autumn garden?

Autumn Learning Journey: Activity 3 – Velociraptor

During this school holidays, there is this programme called Autumn Learning Journey. It is where you complete as many activities as you can. One of the activities is drawing a velociraptor with the tutorial video. The activity is based on Velociraptor Day which apparently is today.

My work:

Would you prefer to have a velociraptor with feathers and wings or a velociraptor just like any other dinosaur?
