Current Events

 

This week the whole class did the last current events quiz for 2020 and it was all about some of the interesting things that happened over this year. Out of all of the questions I chose to research the most beautiful town in NZ. I hope my slide informs you about hastings and what it got awarded.

Summer Learning Journey #1

 This is the first SLJ activity for 2020 and its a colouring website that you can choose a painting then you can customise it. I decided that I would only change the sky colour to fit the look of the painting. I really liked doing this because there is heaps of different options of paintings and photos. 

MY Current Events

This is my current events presentation all about what the UK is banning by the year 2030. We started off with doing a class quiz on all of the current events, once that was finished we each got to chose one current event to further research. I really enjoyed doing this activity because I got to research a topic that I wanted to earn more about.

 

Current Events

My Current Events

 Recently New Zealand held a Diwali festival in Auckland and I wanted to research more about it for my current events. I liked this activity because we started by doing a quiz on current events then we chose one question to research more about. I hope that my presentation helps you understand more about the festival Diwali.

The Melbourne Cup

Today I made and researched about the Melbourne cup and some main things about it.I really enjoyed doing this because it was a quick and easy activity to learn more about something. I recommend doing this for anyone that needs to research something but they need to make a presentation fast.
 

Current Events

This week we did a current event quiz and one of the questions was about the first black women vice president, Kamala Harris. I liked this activity because it allowed me to research more about the vice president.
 

Sportsmanship Pamphlet

Today I made a pamphlet for the last activity this week . This pamphlet is all about teaching others how to show sportsmanship and what it's all about. I liked this activity because it was a whole different way to present my work. The most challenging part about this was organizing all of the information.

 

How to show sportsmanship

This is another activity that we are doing to learn and understand what sportsmanship represents. This activity is all about how we can use sportsmanship in our everyday lives instead of just in sports. I really liked this activity because then this can help others in their community.

 

Sportsmanship Learning

 This is one of the other activities we are doing for this week's work. This slide is about the three major Olympic values and how to be gracious. I really enjoyed doing this activity because allowed me to learn more about the Olympic games and also the meaning to be gracious while playing games.

My Current Events

 

Today we did a quiz on all of the current events that have been on the news and once we had finished the quiz everyone got to choose a specific question that they found interesting to research. I chose the question about NASA finding traces of lunar water on the sunlit side of the moon. I really enjoyed this activity because it allows me to figure out more about the subject instead of just writing something about a subject I already know about. 

My Sportsmanship Word Map

 This is the second activity I did this week and this one is about choosing a word and writing the definition, finding a picture that represents it, and writing a couple other facts. I think this activity really helped me understand and bit more about the word respect means and what it represents.

My Comparing and Contrasting Activity

WALT: Make connections by thinking about underlying ideas within and between texts.

This is my first activity for this week, it's about comparing the article about Marion Jones and the Spain basketball team and what they both did to win Olympic medals and how they regretted it later in their lives. I really enjoyed doing this activity because it allowed me to have a different understanding of both of the articles and how much everyone regrets their mistakes.

My Maths DLO

 MY DLO

Today we were learning about Integers. First, we completed a test on positive and negative integers, then we studied how to work them out. Lastly, we made a DLO explain how to work it out to others. I hope this helps.

Alfred Nobel

 

Today our class did a current event Kahoot which I found really fun even though I didn't come first. After that our teacher chose one of the current event for us to research. Today we were doing Alfred Nobel and what he's all about. I decided to make a few slides to explain it to you. I really enjoyed this activity because as I was making the slides I got to learn some facts about him myself. The most challenging part of this was finding the right information for the questions I chose but once I found the right website it was much easier. I hope this explains a bit about Alfred Nobel and clears up a couple questions you might have had about him.

My Answers for sportsmanship

 

WALT: Read an article then answer questions about the text.

These are the answers to a couple of questions about the famous tennis player named Novak Djokovic and what he did. I really enjoyed this because it just helped me understand the article a bit more and how it all happened.

Sportsmanship words

 

WALT: Make connections by thinking about underlying ideas within and between texts.

This term we are learning about sportsmanship. The first activity we did was to write down 8 words to represent sportsmanship. I really enjoyed doing this because it was simple but fun. 

Make connections by thinking about underlying ideas within and between texts

My DLO's

Parts of a circle

Edes, verticles, and faces

WALT: Make a DLO for two things that we didn't know how to do.

This week we did two tests to find two spacific things that we need to work on then we worked out how to do them and lastly made a DLO showing others how to work it out.I really enjoyed doing this because as I was teaching others how to do this maths with the DLO;s I also got to learn myself. I hope my videos help you.

My Current Events

This is my current events work. One of the current events was that the Taj Mahal was reopening after being closed for 6 months due to COVID 19. The most challenging part of this was probably spelling everything correctly. I really enjoyed doing this because as I was writing this I learnt that the building had been closed for quite a while and I hope you learn something while reading this too.
 

My NZ Tour

 

This is my NZ tour for the third activity. This is just simply adding in the main places to New Zealand. I think that it is very important to the Maori culture to know some of the places where it all started. I really enjoyed doing this becasue I got to explore where it all started.

My Te Wiki O Te Reo Maori Poster

 

This is the second activity I have done for this week. I hope you like what I have made for this week. I really enjoyed making this poster because it was really easy and it looks great as well. What do you think of my poster?
