Day 7 Keeping New Zealand Beautiful

Day 7 Keeping New Zealand Beautiful

The challenging thing about today was what to say in my video.

The best bit about today was that I got to do the thing I love again, Travelling!

Love Flower

Love Flower

Recently Ponui O Toka have been working on logos. First we had to study on what a logo was. Then we did so doddle's in our project books for are personal logo but today we just went straight onto the design app and created what ever we wanted to!  Once we had made our design we had to make a quality blog post on our design. So this is my design. It is a Love Flower! You are probably wondering what is a love flower? I chose the name love flower because I made the petals out of love hearts. And I think that the love flower represents my love for my family! So this is my Love Flower I hope you enjoy!

Robotics

This term I have been doing Robotics every Tuesday afternoon. We had to learn how to program a robot to move. First we had to connect a special cord from the Mack book to the robot. Then we had to go onto a app on the Mack book and put in coordinates. Most of the time the coordinates didn't work so we had to go back and keep persisting. The robot was an EV3 Lego Mindset robot that we had to build as a group. The bit I found the most challenging was that we had to try and get the correct coordinate to be able to move on. The easiest bit was that my group knew what to do and when things went wrong. When we got onto the last maze on the second try my group succeeded. I love doing robotics it is awesome.

Day 6 Learning Journey

Native Aotearoa

Today I found my poem challenging because I wanted to make it good and make it rhyme but it was quite difficult.

My favourite activity was actually writing my poem because it improved my writing skills.

Day 5 Learning Journey

Uru Manuka Logo Design

Lately we have been doing an Uru Manuka logo design to enter in a huge competition. First we had to find out what Uru Manuka means and talk to each other about it. Then we all went off and started doing some doddle's in our project book. It took me about seven different attempts just to find out if I wanted to do a tree or not! Then finally after maybe 1 week I found the perfect design. After I had found my perfect design I added some colour. I chose the colours based on what they meant. After that I created my logo online and perfected it. This is my logo that I am super proud of.

Swimming With The Sharks #4

Day 4 Swimming With The Sharks

Today it was challenging because lots of the link were not working.

I know that the beached whale activity has inspired me to help out in the community whenever I have the chance to. 

This is my work and I am proud of it!

Why We Need To Use Netiquette!

Kia Ora my name is Phoebe and I will be teaching you about netiquette (Online Etiquette). Some people think that just because they are online that they can go ahead and say awful things. But they don't realise that there is actually someone behind the screen. So this is why we should use netiquette.

Calendar Art

Recently we have been trying to complete our calendar art. First we had to pick what we wanted to do for calendar art. Next we had to draw in our design books and then did it on the actual paper. This is my calendar art for 2017!

Voki

Today I learnt about Voki. Elham and Milan from Gilberthorpe school taught me how to do this. First we had to create a new character and then we could choose if it was a boy or girl, I choose boy. Can you guess who I choose? He is famous. Have you guessed? Well it is Donald Trump! I decided to edit him I hope you enjoy.   By the way the word "enjoy" is the link to it.

Netiquette

Every Thursday our Cybersmart teachers come in to teach us how to be safe on the internet. Yesterday Mr Maddren and Mrs Morgan came in and taught us Netiquette (Net Etiquette). We made a Mind Mup about this and it would be great if you could comment on my blog!
