Matariki rotation

Hi bloggers! 

On Thursday we did this Matariki rotation day. It was really fun because we got to, make Maori bread,  did some stop motion about the 7 stars of Matariki or any other Maori myth or legend. We also made kites out of bamboo. There are 3 rooms in our syndicate. In Hauraki we did the kites, In Waitemata, we did the stop motion.  In Manukau we made the bread. I liked making the bread the most because we got to eat it in the end.  We  made the bread with only a few items. Flour, water a bowl, spatula, a frying pan, and tissues. We got to choose what to put on our bread when we got to eat it. I chose to put butter and syrup on mine. It was super yum. 

For the kite making, me, Daiki, Caja and Ibrahim were asked to make the giant one. We finished it successfully. 

For stop motion, me, Daiki and Caja worked together and made one about the 7 stars of Matariki. 

Here are some photos of the day. See u later bloggers!

Cross Country👟👟👟

Cross country

On Thursday this week, we did cross country. We had to run around the whole school two times.  It was very very hard but I came fourth. There was also six activities that included Tennis, Handball, getting ready to run, Rest,  Run and Blindfolds. I am a year six, so I ran the Tennis station with Pao, Hosanna, and Disaree. 

We had an early morning tea at ten thirty. Cross country started at eleven fifteen and ended at two o'clock.  All the year groups stayed together and went to all the activities.  The year sixes ran last. If you come first, second, third, fourth, or fifth, you get a card and that means you are going to zones. Me and all my friends made it to zones. Well, that was all we did on the day.

I liked hosting the Tennis and it was fun. But the run was SO tiring!

please comment and blog you later. Also, here are some photos of the day. 

 

 

Poetry Competition

Hi bloggers!!! on Monday this week, we did a poetry competition.  Our class (Hauraki) went into the yellow space.  We first decided the order.  We all got handed sheets and we marked the person who was presenting. When it was my turn, my legs were shaking! There were 5 things to mark them on and on each column, you can mark them out of 5. The highest amount of points you can get in total is 25 points. For me, Rudy and Jonathon got the highest points: 22. I think I did well. A few people will go into the finals. The 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th places get prizes. 

About 6 weeks ago,  the teachers  told us to find a poem. And we used that to enter the poetry competition. 

That is all, bloggers!  

Toolkits

TOOLKITS  

Hi bloggers! Yesterday we did online Toolkits. We went to the hall with our own chrome books and first did a google meet with all the other schools that were participating.  There were three sessions. At nine fifteen, our first session started. I chose to do the remove background Toolkit.  There was a link to each google meet where the presenters would explain how to do it.  In the second session, I chose the scratching games toolkit. For the last session, I did Piskel.  I LOVED going to the Toolkits and it was really really fun. I learned lots of things like removing the background from and image, code and make games and draw a pixel image and make it as a GIF. Here are some images from the sessions.  That's it bloggers! 

Reading task

Hey bloggers! On Wednesday this week, for reading I chose to make a Kahoot about the journal we had to read about at home. Kahoot is a site where you can make quizzes for people. The story that I chose was called White Shoes.  White shoes is a story about a kid who learns about his Maori culture and his view about his culture. I let Jonathon and Tristan try the Kahoot. Tristan came first. It took almost the whole reading session to make it.  It was fun making it and seeing who would win the kahoot. That is all so, Bye bloggers!
