Table mat

 Today I used skimming and scanning to record the idea's on a task which is called table mat information.

First, me and my group readed a book called New Zealand Filmmakers. It is about New Zealand Filmmakers and what movies have they created. So we used skimming and scanning on the fiction and non fiction books.  Skimming is kind of like an airplane. me and my group were reading down the page looking for keywords. Scanning is kind of like an helicoptor or a airplane, you can stop and hover by focusing on the piece of text.  

Next, we did the table mat activity. We had to find keywords and define 1 of them. we then switched chrome books with eachother and checked our work.

Finally me and my group did the what I would ask and the key questions. Key questions are like questions that author thought about before writing the book. 

me and my group enjoyed this activty because we used skimming and scaning to find imformation about a person I have never heard about.

Party Popper

My Gorup and I designed a party popper.

First I used all the parts which is I had to make a party popper, it ended very well when I put more details about the party popper.

Next I put all the parts of the party popper all together.

I used all the parts which are rubber band, string, paper cup, tooth pick, filling, and the nut and bolt for it together so it could make a party popper. really good cause of the part where i put all the parts together

To finish up, when I was done putting the parts all together to make a party popper, I had to take a picture of it when I was done.

For example, I used a camera to take a picture of it to put on my blog. It ended brilliantly and amazingly.

I learned a lot about how happy I was when I took a picture of the party popper so I could put it on my blog. I liked it when I put more information about the party popper and the parts i would do better on my party popper and the parts so i could tell more information about the party popper and the parts.

HPE

 Today me and Group A were working on a HPE activity.

First me and Group A were doing a activity called "Technique, and Balanced position", which Balanced position was like a person throwing something for you to get it, and Technique was like we had to focus on our balance.

Next we needed to go on our second activity called "Chase Frisbee", it was like you being a dog while the person throws the frisbee so you can catch it.

Then we needed to do our third activity called "Catching on the run", it was like a person throwing the frisbee at you until you get it, which means when you catch it you dont need to move or take a step.

After that we needed to do our fourth activity called "Catch the target" (I guessed the name), its like we had to make lines to going separted to get in lines, so then when the person with the frisbee throwed it we had to catch it on the spot that you landed so you can throw it into the right target.

Finally we needed to do our fifth activity called "Ultimate Frisbee", its like we needed to get chosen into 2 groups called "Non Bib Team" and "Bib Team" which then you need to have two frisbee's each other team so then the 2 teams can try and score for at the other score for the person's team.

Maori

 Today me, Group A, and Whaea Odie were working on a maori learning activity.

First we needed to go on a LS1 site, then go on the maori times table to for us to get on the updated document to make a copy of it.

Next we needed to investigate what are the maori words mean, which they mean names, the names are "Dorothy, Caroline, Jacob, Elizabeth, Nicholas," and in Maori they are "Tarati, Kararaina, Hakopa, Irihapeti, and Nikora.

Then we needed to put them in place for what the maori names actually are, which we put them into a 15x15 columns.

After that we needed to make our own names with the names and the maori names, which my ones were "Abraham Nicholas, Jane Jim, which in Maori are

Finally we needed to change our names from english to maori which Whae Odie says that "S,Z,J -= H, V = W, L = R"so then my name says "Hemi".

    

Basic Facts Boxes

 Today is the day I have finally got my high score timers on my homework called "Basic Facts Boxes".

First is that I went to find a slide for my basic facts boxes to work, then when I was done searching for a slide I had to do a challenge from my teacher, then I had to take a picture of it when I was done.

Next is that I had to set a timer on the mode called stop watch for the basic facts boxes.

Then I had to text in the text box that I was thinking that I could do better than what I've done.

After when I was done texting on the slide I was uploading the picture from the basic facts boxes challenge.

Finally when I was done I was actually very shocked cause I was done in 1m and 47s.

SSR Selfie

 Today I have been reading my books for my homework which is "SSR Selfie".

First is that I had to find a book, and a slide that is on my computer which i could find it on the LS1 site.

Next is that I had to text in the text box of what was the illustrator.

Then I texted in the other text box of what was the main character.

After that i had to make a recount about my book and list three interesting words and, type the meaning.

Finally when I was done I had to take a picture with the book so the audience's like you can know that it's me that made the SSR Selfie.
