We used our basic facts knowledge to solve how the issue of how many students in one cabin.The strategies we used were Algorithm Addition Something we found interesting about working out the word problem was choosing what strategy to use.I learnt its is important to use my own strategy because we shouldn’t copy others and when we finish we can
Last week our Task was to create a DLO on the Kuaka and my DLO shows the different places the Kuaka Migrate to.something I found interesting was it can travel 11,000 to 13,000 kilometers under a week.
LI: To create an infographic that tells others about the migration of the kuaka
Last Week our task was to make dot to dot connections on words that connected to the Kuaka. i chose 6 words which were Climate Change, Migration, Navigation, DIet, Travel, Appearance and Habitat and i made connections with the words with facts about the Kuaka.
LI:To draw the lines between the words to show how the connections you have made.
Last Week our task was to create and DLO showing the migration route of the Kuaka and to explain why they go to all of the different places. this is what I created and something I found interesting is that the reason they migrate is just like any other animal or person their reason is to find better food and a breeding place.
LI:To use Google My Maps to to show the migratory flight path of the Kuaka.
Yesterday PBS went on a walk to the Point England Reserve to learn about what Samuel Marsden saw in 1820.Our task was to create a photo collage of our walk in sequential order .We first crossed the road to Dunkirk and walked along the path. We the walked by the Marist Rugby Club and the whole walk we could see the clear water and the question that went through my mind was “what did Samuel Marsden see?” and I imagined what might and might not have been there. We then arrived to Point England Reserve and had morning tea and played on the park and took lots of photos. After around like 30 minutes we all lined up and left and then walked along the path to school. something I really like was the fact that the entire school had fun on this walk and I would definitely do this again.
LI: To understand the concept of visual storytelling.
Our Year 7/8 camp was at Kokako Lodge in Hunua. Our challenge today was to use our smart searching skills to find out about the kokako bird and create an infographic to share the facts we researched in our own words.
Something I found interesting about the kokako bird was that young Kokako Birds hove more of a pinkish orangish wattle and older Kokako Birds have a blue wattle.
LI: To use our smart searching skills.
In week 4 Our Teachers Asked us to create a Water Safety Poster for Hunua Falls at Camp.I created one that includes rules that you must follow while your there. While I was creating this Poster my teacher said that there was sudden drop offs under water and I found that really cool.
At camp we had lots of challenge activities to try. Our challenge in with our poem was to chose our words carefully so that we painted a clear picture of what we were describing in the mind of our readers.Iki and I have described what it was like to try out the High beam.We chose this challenge because we both had agreed that it was really fun and we want to do it again out of them all.
LI:To write a poem that describes a moment in time
In LS2 We used Adobe Express to create what we thought Samuel Marsden saw back in the 1820s. We included alot of greenery because they didn’t have the normal buildings we see today.We learnt that Samuel Marsden was a Preist and a Farmer but is mostly known for being a priest.
LI:To use the information in the diary extract to create an image of what we think Samuel Marsden saw when he sailed down the Tamaki awa.
This is the image I created using the Adobe Express. I found this activity challenging because it was pretty hard to get the thing you want in photo using the AI but I found it fun because it was cool picking out all the add ins the AI Generated.Something I learnt when using prompts for AI is that you need to really write a lot of detail to get what you are looking for.
