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.

 Today me and my group have worked on our first design company.

First we made a google spread sheet.

Next we put our parts, current design, upload design option, and our rational.

Then we put the changes of our parts into the upload design row.

After that we needed to type about what are the parts for, and the upload design option is for putting the items inside of the upload design option row.

Finally I was on the Rational row (Rational means whats the reason about it), so than I putted the reasons of why we used the paper, stick, cup, filling, and the ruberband.

 Today I worked on three movements.

First is that the three movements are "Rotation, Translation, and Reflection".

Finally when I was done I had to make a blog post about the three movements.

What is a summary

What is a summary, for me, I think a summary is a brief statment of the main points of something.

 And I think a short explaination of the main points something.  

HPE

 Today me and Group A were working on a equipment for balance.

First I needed to go and get a tennis racket and a tennis ball which is a HPE equipment.

Next is that we were working on holding the tennis ball with the tennis racket while not to move it.

Then I needed to bounce the tennis ball with the tennis racket without going to move your legs, and then my teacher said to get a partner so I could get use to this with someone that is a expert.

`After when I were done with the bounce activity, my teacher said to get a partner with one tennis ball and the other person has to have one tennis racket, so then me and my partner needed to go back from each other.

Finally when I was doing my two last activitys, I needed to go and bounce the ball to my partner so he could hit the tennis ball with a tennis racket until we swap positions,

the second activity was difficult because we needed to go in a line so we can hit the the ball because my volunteer which is joe needed to throw it while I hit it everytime when its my turn.

Maori

 Today I worked on a maori learning with "Whae Odie".

First Whae Odie told us that I needed to go on the moari section and make a copy of it and to put it on the literacy folder.

Next I needed to translate what the maori words mean in maori because I used "Maori dictionary".

Then Whae Odie said that I needed to scroll to see the word called "matau" and "maui", which means left and right.

After that Whae Odie told me to scroll down and translate the words called "aporo, peke, panana, pouaka makariri, karaka, papa kai, ropere, mahi mara, pea, rakua whai hua, mereni, pureti, matira, pena, heihei, oumu, retihi, and kumete.

Finally when I was finally done translating all those maori words, Whae Odie told the people that are done to scroll and press on the link when we are waiting.

First is that we had to make a copy of the document that my teacher made in his own LS1 slide.

Next is that he made a lot of text books to put my title, my 3 mechimisims, my images, and my summary in it.

Then when  I was done i nearly forgot to type in my introduction to explain how popcorn pops inside the corn.

After that when I was done with my 3 mechmisims, the title, the introduction, my images, and my last thing is the summary.

Next is that I had to put some information first to make a google document.

So then I was done, we had to show it to our teacher so we could use the equipment which is a milk bottle and we had to use a phone so we can upload it on the LS1 media.

Then we were on our final task, we had to do the balance challenge while someone is taking a picture of me.

Maori

Today I have done Maori learning with Whae Odie.

First is that we had to go on our LS1 website just to press a link into going into the right document, which we had to make a copy of it.

Next is that there were maori words that include a picture while figuring out whats it for, the picture was with a lot of objects.

Then Whae Odie we learnt how to say "bellow, between, left, and right".

After that we were told that when we were done with the maori learning we could help the other people or just playing simon says.

Finally when we were done we had to memorize the words in maori which was "Below, between, right, and left.

HPE and Balancing

Today I learnt how to balance with equipment.

I started at the tennis station, it was hard cause we had to balance with one leg while hitting the ball with the tennis racket.

Next is that we had to go to the second station which was the spoon and egg, it was kind of hard on putting our leg into straighting it up while putting the egg and spoon down to a lower level.

Then we hads to go to our third station which is the hokey sticks with the balls, it was hard cause every time we switched to the person who rolls the ball or the person who hits the ball with the hokey sticks.

After that we went to go on the fourth station which was the "Soccer ball", it was really hard cause we had to put it on our fore head.

 

Finally is that we had to go to our fifth station which was the volly ball, it was kind of easy cause we had to set the ball to the other person to dig it to you.

I am really happy that I know how to balance while holding objects/equipment.
