While half of the class was at swimming the non swimmers stayed behind to complete some tasks off of a matrix we had been given.

My first task was to make a rhyming book on book creator about how my 2020 was, this is the book I made...

My next task was to do a review on a movie, I chose the movie nerve, here is the review I did...

Hangi - Then vs Now

Kia Ora Bloggers

As I said in my last blog post we have been learning about Maori traditions, heritage and culture.

Our second task was to create a poster on hangi's then vs now. I showed the then vs now of what they cooked the hangi in. Here is my poster:

Did you learn anything about a hangi? :)
 

Tā moko

 Kia Ora Bloggers

For the past few weeks, we have been doing Inquiry. Our topic for this term is culture, tradition and heritage.

Our task was to choose a Maori tradition and learn about the past and present of different things to do with the tradition.

I went with India-Grace and we chose to learn about Tā moko. Here is the work we did :)

NZSL :)

 As you may know, we have tech on Wednesdays, so while we are back at school we focus on something different every week or 2 weeks, as you should know this week is signed language week. We have been learning lots of different things about sign language. Here is the NZSL alphabet...

We learnt the alphabet, how to say our name and lots of different other things. We used this website to learn our sign language, you can use this to learn NZSL for yourself :)

We also had to make a video of us signing our name but unfortunatley it wouldn't upload to my blog. 

Dreams

 Kia Ora Bloggers

This week we have gotten a few topics and we had to research one of them, I chose to research about dreams. I have learned a lot about dreams doing this, like how you have up to 4 - 6 dreams each night but only remember some of it! or depending on your mood before you go to sleep affects what your dreams about, if you are frustrated you are more likely to have a dream about you falling, failing, or getting attacked.

Here is the doc:

ISS :)

 Kia Ora Bloggers

For the last few days in Gillstrom literacy we have been focusing on the ISS (International Space Station), we watched this video so we could get a good understanding of it. The purpose of the ISS is to bring research and answers about the satellites. While we were watching the video we wrote down some notes that could help us write a timeline, this is the timeline that I made.

My timeline explains what happens during the years in the ISS

Our next task was to create our own module on an ISS world on Minecraft, I chose to create a kitchen so the people in the ISS can sit down and eat their food also because they don't really have anywhere that they can just relax. As I was writing this I realised that if they sit on a seat they will float up in the air so they might have to have seatbelts or something to keep them on the seat. Here are some screenshots of my module.

I hope you liked it :)

Skin Care Business

Kia Ora Bloggers

This Wednesday we got into groups and came up with our own business. We did this so we could have an understanding of how businesses work and what you should be prepared for if you ever start one. My group made a skincare business. This is the slide we created (It's not finished yet)

Have a good day :)
