Today we have been learning about doing a Maori Kupu quiz. It is a quiz about maori words and see how many words you can get correct. I tried myself and it seemed pretty hard but overall my scored was 76 out of 100. In my opinion I did really good but maybe next time I try this I hope I can improve my knowledge and strive for a more greater score.

Olympics Acrostic Poem

 

For the past two weeks we have been recording information and learning about the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. We started doing an Inquiry about it and now we have started a acrostic poem. Here is my acrostic poem that I have been working on.

I thought that this work was really easy but I really liked doing this and I hope we do more stuff like this because it is really fun to do. I liked doing this because I had a challenge but I overcame that and finished my work in the given amount of time.

This work was really easy but their were a little bit of things that were kind of challenging to me. The first thing was trying to come up with a word that started with I but I never gave up and completed that task.

I am not sure that I have done any mistakes so maybe next time I can try to reflect on my work and try to level up with my mahi and complete my work with the high standards that needs to be shown in my work.

Olympics Value

 


My friend Tyran and I have been working on recording information about the Olympic Value Respect. We have put our information onto a google drawing and created a designed colour for the background. We tried to put detailed words in the sentences and we also tried to explain the Value Respect as best as we could.

I think that we both had done this task really fast and maybe we could of added a lot of more information about the Value Respect. Maybe even added another Value and explain what that means because there are three types of Values which are, Respect, Friendship, Excellence.

I had the thought of thinking that it was very challenging but when I was adding information onto the google drawing I actually thought that I was very capable of doing that and the fact that I thought that I couldn't I knew that I was wrong.

My friend Tyran had given me all of the information so I could copy it and put onto the google drawing and put it into  my own words because If didn't that would be copyright and that is illegal. We each got pieces of information from the sites that we had been given from the teachers and got the recommended information that was nice and clearly explained and we also tried to hook the reader in.

Maybe you can an Olympian one day?

Horouta Waka Animation

 


We were learning the story called Horouta. So today I have created my own animation about the Horouta story.

I found it easy to duplicate my slides and add a bit more detail into each slide I had created. I also found it really easy to use the polyline tool to create my mountains and everything else that was created on my slides.

I found it challenging to think of my favourite part of the story because the whole story was just really amazing and I also found it hard to add the people but later on found it.

Next time I will maybe make it more longer and put lots of more detail then it has.

Twelve Days Of Christmas


I learned a new song from a book that is called the twelve days of Kiwi Christmas. I also learned a new song in that book called a Pukeko in a ponga tree.

I enjoyed making up all of the funny sentences that my group and I made. I enjoyed working cooperatively with my group and my friends, also enjoyed the pictures of our slides.

What I found challenging was the pictures that we had to find to match our sentences. It was also challenging to get a perfect picture that had fit.

I found it easy to think of ideas and come up with things like backgrounds, photos and others.

Next time I could maybe work faster instead of mucking around and doing nothing and maybe next time work a little bit more better with my group.

Digital Mandala Art

 

We were learning about doing mandala art on a google drawing.

I found it easy to decorate the colours of the circles and the lines.

I found it challenging to create the lines to the exact size for them to fit into the circle.

Next Time I will make more circles and try and make more of a better design.

Shapes

 

 
We were learning about doing a presentation of shapes and translating them into moari.

 I found it easy to insert the shapes and get the background I wanted.

 I found it challenging to get the shapes into the spot I wanted them to go in. I also found it challenging to find the moari names of the shapes.

 Next time I will try to memorize all of the moari names and add more creation and more detail to my work

Colours

 

We were learning about making a slide about colours.

I found it easy to write down the names of the colours and in maori.

I found it challenging to find a clear background photo of each fruit that matches the colour.

Next time I will do more slides and do more work and always try my best.

Digital Learning


We were learning about making a blog post about something that we learned about through the year.

I found it easy to write down all of the facts about angles and create my background and make my word art.

I found it challenging to fit every single one of my facts about angles that I wrote down.

Next time I will get more facts about angles or try something different to post about.

Rangi and Papa Story

 

We were learning about making our own Ebook and posting it to our blog.

I found it easy to write down the story on my slide.

I found it challenging to help my cooperative groups slides because I didn't know what they wanted me to do.

Next time I will ask my cooperative team what to do so I can help them finish instead of waiting there and doing nothing
