Holly Current Events

 

Today for the current events quiz I researched the Lake Ohau Fire.

I saw it on Tv earlier this year and it looked devastating.

There was a lot of land that was burnt away.

Art

 

Today Taiao used this website called art colouring book to colour in some pieces of art.

I made a couple of them but this was my favourite because it has 2 of the lgbtq+ flags.

The Bisexual and The Pansexual flag.

In the end, I really liked how it turned out.

Kakapo Current Events

 

Today in Taiao we did the current events quiz and there was a question about the Kakapo.

I decided to research about the Kakapo. The Kakapo bird was crowned the bird of the year for the second time and that has apparently never happened before. 

Tunnel underneath Stonehenge

 

Today for current events we did something a little bit different, we had to pick two topics from the quiz and research them both, the first one is just a standard presentation but the second has to be to a higher standard, for example, using Wevideo or an animation.

This is my first one about Stonehenge and the tunnel that is going to be built underneath it.

Olympic values

 

Today during T-shaped literacy I finished the first part of our activities which was to find out the three Olympic values and then write what each of them means.

This is what I got, I think respect is the most important.

I hope this can teach you some things about what you need to have if you ever want to get to the games.

Japan radioactive water

 

Today for current events I decided to research Japans radioactive water release.

It was really interesting to read about and I learnt a lot about it.

I don't think they should because that could affect the whole world as these things spread.

Many seafood companies are worried about how this could stop their business.

If they do this it could spread all throughout the oceans and they may never be safe to swim in again.

I hope this teaches you something about it and I hope you like it.

Alfred Nobel

 

Today part of Taiao was put in Whenua and we did some inquiry on Alfred Nobel.

We had to make an interactive DLO with information on him.

This is the one I made and my favourite part about making this was probably finding out all of the information that I did because I didn't know anything about him or who he was.

I hope you find out something new from this and I hope you like it.

24 Hour Time

 

Taiao has been working on time for maths and we had to make a DLO about one of our goals from the maths diagnostic tests, my goal was about 24 hour time and how to change to and from 24-hour clock times.

It was easy because I already partially knew how to do it because of times on devices, but it was still fun.

I hope this is easy to understand and that you learn something from this!

Astronauts finally find source of year-long air leak.

 

Yesterday Taiao did another current events quiz.

Today we did the research on one of the questions and I did mine on the air leak on the International space station, it was really interesting to read about and I learnt a lot from it. 

I hope you learn something about it by reading the information on this drawing and I hope you like it.

The bottom picture is a photo of the ISS (International Space Station).

Maui #2

 

I made this drawing of Maui on piskel for Maori language week.

It took me a while to make and it turned out ok.

The part I liked about doing it was definitely drawing it.

The part I didn't like was how it was so square.

This is the second thing I have made on piskel and it is a great site for drawing online.

Hope you like it.

Maori language week quiz

Since it is Maori language week I made this quiz.

It took a long time to make because of the research and figuring out what questions to put on.

See how many you can get correct.

How it works is you pick one and then go to the next slide and it will tell you the correct answer.

Hope you enjoy!

Maui

Since this week is Maori language week I made a drawing of Maui.

This took me about an hour to make but I like how it turned.

The part I don't like about it is how the eyes look and the way the hands and arms are all wonky, and the feet disappeared.

To make a drawing like this I used the platform Piskel, on this app you can trace things and you can draw things.

Check it out

Ocean Zones

In class, we have been learning about the zones in the ocean and we had to make a slide show with each zone and this is my one. I hope you like it!

Hello Goodbye

This is my Hello Goodbye poem.

What I enjoyed about making it was writing it.

What I didn't enjoy so much was thinking of what to write that was quite hard.

Hope you enjoy it!

Flanders field

This is my flanders field presintation.

Hope you enjoy!
