Aboriginal Art comes from Australia.  
The majority of the aboriginal art told a story with the different symbols and people call these Dreamtime stories.  
Dreamtime refers to the Aboriginals belief.

We started practising dots and lines by making symbols.
Some of the symbols are: star, travel sign, boomerang, water hole, foot prints, hunter and Travelling.
I used different types of symbols that explain the story.

Properties of Sound

Examples of sound are: music, bangs, and siren.

A property of sound would be that the volume of the sound can change depending on the distance the sound is from the source. The closer sound was higher on the decibel meter and the further sound meter was lower. 

The last property observed of sound is that sound can travel corners.  
This is because Mr Wong clapped in another area of the classroom and the meter was still able record the sound.

Maths Pattern

Today I did a Maths Pattern, we had to do our 6x tables.  The pattern I found was 6,3,9. This is the single digit answer of the answers For example 6 x 4= 24, 2+4 =6. I drew it on a piece of paper.  This is what the pattern looks like.  Next time I do my maths I will try improving.
