Literacy Planet Recap

 


Literacy planet is a digital browser that teaches students figurative speech, spelling, etc. Room 4 have been using literacy planet for a while, and this is my journey using this website!

Literacy planet is a fun browser that lets you able to have fun while learning. I especially love the spelling assignments, even though one of the tasks are a real hassle to play. Although they don't only have spelling, they have comprehension, figurative language, punctuation and more!

Compared to maths whizz, its actually quiet similar, but their are definitely some differences. One of the main differences is the speed. Maths whizz usually takes quiet a while, with all the detailed animations, while in literacy planet, you're able to skip those scenes. 

Another main difference is the difficulty. As maths whizz lets you do an assessment, its able to track where your maths level is at and is able to find your weaknesses. Literacy planet does not have that feature, so depending on the task it can both be really hard or really easy, which is very inconsistent. 

Here are how many points I've gotten using literacy planet for about a month!

ATTITUDE

 Today, Robbie and Charlie from ATTITUDE came to talk with us intermediate boys. They made many points, which made us feel less-insecure and become more confident within ourselves. Here is my favourite topic we've talked about.

Shape, meaning our body. We were told that everyone can be insecure about their body, from being too skinny to being too chubby. Although because of that, we're all unique and different. From this, we learnt to be more confident about our body and its okay to be different and to stand out.

Shape also meaning by 'height'. We learnt that its both valuable and both have different strengths. Although they explained it with humour which was a nice surprise! And we were told that if it affects you too much, were always able to talk about it with someone you trust!

In conclusion, boys are all different, from different sizes to our genital areas, height, width, etc.

Thank you ATTITUDE for coming to Point England!
