Today we have been learning how to write a good email. I learned to write a greeting. I Also learned to write clearly about a subject. Then I have to sign off with my name. In the end I have to proofread my writing before I send it.
What does your digital foot print say about you?
Today June 15th 2023 we were researching people in other schools. I chose Panmure Bridge student called Keira and I had to make informed guesses about her from the information she shared. . We have to be careful what we post online and only say positive, thoughtful comments about others.
DIGITAL DIG TASKS
This morning Mrs Grant came to our class and she gave us activities on our Chromebooks. One was teaching us how to use our keyboards and some of the activities were easy and others were harder. My friends were asking me questions so I couldn’t concentrate properly. My favourite shortcut is to press Ctl Shift t to get back to tab you were on before. It was a fun session.
MY FAVOURITE MOVIE
Today we have been looking at other people’s Manaiakalani films. I like this movie because
I liked it when they were getting ready inside the tunnel and the part when they sang the song. I rated it 5 stars which is the highest in the rate number click this link to watch the movie
The Stolen Princess
At the beginning of the term we made potato people. My potato was so big and I thought that it was going to be easy but of course I was wrong – it was harder than I thought. It took a lot of tooth picks, glue, material and my brain working hard but we finished our potatoes after 3 weeks! We decided we were going to use our potatoes to make a story for our class movie and Ms Toland said we could make a stop motion movie using them.
We had to make four background for our movie. They were inside the castle, a party scene, the evil layer and a rocket. I was part of the evil layer and we got to paint a box black and grey and stars and planets. Then we went with Ms Toland to the library to film our part of the movie. I really enjoyed it and want to se the end movie one day. THE END
Basketball
This Monday we played basketball. Our coach’s name is Tray. He is the best coach. Our first session was shooting the ball in the hoop and then we played red light, green light, yellow light, purple light and last but not least blue light. After that we played Bull dog. It’s a game when we line up beside each other at the end of the court and then the coach picks a person. The person needs to snatch the ball from the people. Oh and the others have to run to the other side with the ball and after that we finished .THE END
KI O Rahi
Last Thursday a coach from Kelly sports came to our school. We watched a video of the Maori legend about Ki o rahi. The main characters were Rahi and Tiara and the bad guy called Patupaiarehe. He came and looked at Rahi’s wife Tiara and he took her away. Rahi was able to save her in the end and they lived happily ever after.
It was raining so we couldn’t play the real game on the field. We played some tagging games under the canopy. I was in the Taniwha team and we had so much fun.
I am looking forward to learning how to play Ki o rahi and I hope the weather is good this Thursday.
Making My Tree Hut
Last term we started to collect recycling things to make a tree hut. We had to bring them to school for the last week of term when we were going to plan how to make our own tree houses.
First I made the tree with three toilet paper rolls. I stuck two rolls on the side of my tree and the tree went up into the air. Then I decided to make my hut inside that tree. I made the hut with a little box that was stuck down with glue. Sometimes I used too much glue and it took a long time to dry.
In the end we were able to paint our tree huts and that was successful. The first test was to see if it would fall over in front of the fan for ten seconds. This was like a wind and my hut stood still. Then we put 4 scissors on top of the huts to check for weight and I was successful too. Last, we went outside and Mrs Yumul poured some water over the huts to see if they were water resistant. No water got inside mine. I was very happy.so much fun. I put a picture of a family inside the window of my hut. It looked cool.
On the last day we had to do three tests to see if we were successful we won.
