My Explanation

Kia ora blogger’s, today I am going to post about our amazing writing we have  been working on in Te Ngahere. I wrote an explanation on how Newton’s Three Laws of Motion apply to our bottle rockets, that we have been making for the Wonder Project. I learned all about Newton's Three Laws and that was hard to remember. Our W.A.L.T was to use structure and language features of an explanation. I really enjoyed writing this explanation because I knew what I wanted to write about and I also knew  what all of Newton’s Laws of Motion were. Have you done and explanation piece of writing before?

My Explanation

    

Mahi Toi

 Kia ora bloggers, today I am blogging about our art Te Ngahere has recently been doing for the past week. I learned how to draw continuous lines on a koru with design’s. Our teachers gave everyone a template with koru’s with koru designs for us to go over to practise. Our W.A.L.T  was to draw continuous lines draw curves, rule straight lines, select colours for effect and  blend Colours. I found it hard not to talk when others are talking around you and I found it hard to draw over the lines because the line’s were so light that I could barely see them. I enjoyed this subject because it was an amazing opportunity to learn how to draw continuous lines. Have you done this kind of art?

What I Learned From judgement calls

 Kia ora bloggers, today I am blogging about our maths. The maths we are doing is called (judgement calls). We needed: a classmate, a clock or watch that shows the seconds, string, a metre rule, cardboard, split pins, a set of kitchen scales and scissors. Judgement calls is a about measurement, we needed to measure things and also estimating how much some objects weigh on a kitchen scale. I learned how to use a kitchen scale and how to use a scale to weigh the objects. I found it hard to write the data down when the three of us were participating in the activities but we managed to write the data down, it was easy to work out the questions and it was also easy to make the trundle wheel which was for measuring things. Have you done this before?

Tok-Tiker's

Kia ora bloggers, today I am blogging about movie making we have recently been doing in Te Ngahere. We learned how to use all sorts of different angle shots. My group and I found it hard to keep the camera still because we all took turns filming scenes. We had to make the films under 3 minutes long and we used Drama and music in our movie.  Whatever we chose it had to be appropriate for school. I feel really confident making these filmes because I enjoy taking the time to act the scenes and I get to hang out with my friends. I can’t say there is something I don’t enjoy about it. Have you ever made a film before and did you have fun making it? These were the types of shots we used. 

Mesurement Maths

Kia ora bloggers, today I am blogging about our maths that we have recently been doing in Te Ngahere. We were learning to measure (a piecework quilt). I found it hard to understand the maths but it was easy to work it out in my group and share my ideas. Have you ever measured (a piecework quilt)before?

Kawa Of Care

 Kia ora bloggers, today I am blogging about Kawa of care. Kawa of care is about caring for your Chromebook. I made a DLO for kawa of care. On the DLO is has rules for what to do and what not to do. I found it hard to do this because it was hard to find images that you are allowed to use off the internet. I really enjoyed doing this because I learned some things like always leave your Chromebook in the case so no liquids get into the Chromebook and so if you drop it in the case it won’t get damaged. Do you follow these rules around your chromebook?
