LARA, SARAH AND LACHLAN
On 12th May 2008 the class went outside in groups of three to take pictures of circles, squares and triangles. Our group was Lara, Lachlan and Sarah. We went outside to find the shapes.
Outside Lachlan found a circle on a log. He also found a square on the beam and a triangle on the tennis court. Lara found a circle on the basketball hoop, she found a square on the wobbly balance beam and she found a triangle in the playground. Sarah found a circle on the basketball court, a square on the playground and she found a triangle in the undercover area.
To take the pictures we had a camera - we didn't have a camera each we had a camera between 3 so that's a camera per group. We had a lot of fun working together.

KATIE, KALPA AND NICHOLAS
On Monday 12th May Kalpa, Nicholas and Katie went out to find three triangles, three squares and three circles.
We found them on the playground and the basketball court. We took nine photos altogether and we took three each.
We all liked taking photos and we really enjoyed being independent. It was a lot of fun doing it in groups. It is going to go on our blog and The Shape of Things Wikispace.

EUAN, NAOMI AND CELINE
On Monday 12th May our group, Euan, Naomi and Celine, went and took pictures of circles, squares and triangles outside the class. We all took different pictures of the shapes so we have nine pictures in total.
We took pictures of bricks, a bike seat that was in the shape of a triangle and a flying fox.
The camera was really easy to use. We had a lot of fun doing it. Our favourite part was taking pictures. After that we downloaded them onto the computer.
COURTNEY, DAVID AND MITCHELL
On Monday 12th May we took photos for a wikipage. In our group we had Mitchell, David and Courtney. Some places we took photos were the playground, oval, tennis courts and more. We took 11 photos but some of them we didn't like.
This was a fun activity because we used the camera. We all liked working in groups and taking photos. We took a few more photos than we were asked because we forgot that we had some shapes.

JASMINE, ISAAC AND BLAKE
On 12th May my group went and took pictures of circles, triangles and squares by camera. In my group there were 3 people, Isaac, Blake and Jasmine. Each person took three pictures.
We had to take pictures from around the school. I took pictures of a square, circle and triangle. I found a circle in a cement thing, a triangle on a tree and a circle on the playground. Jasmine found her circle in the basket ball hoop, her square on the climbing frame and the triangle on the flying fox. Blake found his shapes at the flying fox and the undercover area.
When we came back we downloaded the photos on to the laptop and wrote group stories. We enjoyed doing the camera bit.

GRACE, ISOBELLA AND DAVIS
On 12th May we had to take photos of circles, squares and triangles. We had a group of three people and they were Davis, Isobella and Grace. We went outside to take a photo each of a circle, squares and triangles.
Mrs Lowe kept an eye on us so we wouldn't get lost in our groups. Everybody took one picture of each shape. We found some weird and interesting places where the shapes were.
We had lots of fun. We found lots of different shapes and learned how to download pictures onto the computer.

SUMATI, DANIEL & CALLAN
On Monday 12th May Callan, Daniel and Sumati got a camera from Mrs Lowe and we took photos in the playground of circles, squares and triangles. We each took a picture of a triangle, square and circle. They were all different sizes.
We also took photos in the basketball and tennis courts. We had to be in sight of Mrs Lowe. After we all took the photos Callan had to take his circle again because his was too blurry.
We took these photos to put on the blog. This was one of our blogging tasks. The slideshow is also going on The Shape of Things Wikispace.
We enjoyed taking photos and we are willing to see the slideshow made out of the photos.

On Monday 12th May we got into groups of three and took some pictures of shapes. They were triangles, squares and circles. We all took one picture of each shape.
We went outside to take the pictures and we found the shapes we needed. Tyson found a square on the wall and it was a brick. Cagla found a circle and a square and it was the basketball hoop. Molly found a triangle on the roof. We were walking around the school to find the shapes we needed.
The camera was really fun to use We all had to find and take lots of pictures.

JUSTIN, RENETA & BEN
On Monday 12th May our class decided to take pictures of squares, circles and triangles with a camera. We had to make a group of three and our group was Ben, Reneta and Justin. We went around the school to take photos.
We took photos in playgrounds, basketball courts and other equipment. We took three photos each which were a circle, a square and a triangle. We tried to find really interesting and good shapes.
We had to take shapes and Mrs Lowe put them on the slideshow. It was quite hard to find the shapes but we still finished it. It was a lot of fun learning how to use the camera too.
