Child poverty in New zeland.

Throughout term three our class have been learning about social justice. I have chosen to learn about child poverty in New Zealand as my example of where children rights may not be met. I found it very eye opening to see the statistics of child poverty in New Zealand. I found getting new information hard. Next time I would use something more exiting to present my work. I tried to edit the correct spelling of New Zealand but it didn't work.

Alone in a sea of people.

WALT: identify people in our community who may be isolated. I enjoyed identifying people and imagining situations about how they are lonely. Next time I would add more depth.

Our freedom

WALT: use words and pictures to convey our thoughts. As a part of our social justice topic we created an image with a quote to go with it. I am happy with my images seeming I made them on google drawings rather than sumo paint.

Climate change

WALT..Understand that human actions affect our climate. As a class we have been working on climate change because it links in with our topic of social justice. I really enjoyed learning about climate change and global warming. There are lots of things you will find interesting. I found deciding how to format the information hard. My next steps would be to include more things we can do to help stop climate change.

Mould growth on apples.

Mould

Walt: Identify the conditions needed for mould growth. I worked with Trinity on this project and we had lots of fun and learnt heaps. My shoes mould is probably the worst. Next time we would use a different app to create the dlo. Here is Trinity's blog so please have a look.

Preserving food.

WALT… Identify   that preserving removes one or more of the conditions that fungi and bacteria need for growth.

I found this activity very interesting and enjoyed learning about older preserving techniques.  Next time I would include more techniques of preserving food.

Mould

We have been learning about mould and how it grows. I am happy with my work. Next time I would make it more colourful and try harder at animating.

Plant or animal?

WALT: Differentiate between plant-like and animal-like characteristics of mould.

Togan languages

In term one we have been learning about the Tongan language. This has been difficult for me because I could only get this information by remembrance and most of the learning has been things that are difficult to memorise.  Further more the only language I can speak a full sentence in is English. My next steps would be to get the other people I was working with to contribute more instead of doing it by myself. This is basic pronunciation.

Leadership creature

W.A.L.T make a creature that has eight features of a good leader. I may have missed the mark because I didn't take a picture of my clay model but I dropped it before I could take any photos.

The five c's of leadership.

W.A.L.T describe the characteristics of a good leader.This is a thing link about the 5 c's of leadership. I completed this activity with my friend Eden so here is here blog address.

The treaty of Waitangi

As a class each of us created a Treaty of Waitangi DLO. I think my next steps would be to make my presentation look better but I am still very happy. Enjoy!

Me, myself and I.

Welcome back, it's 2017 and a new school year. Yay. This slideshow tells you a little more about me. I wonder if we have much in common. Lets see. This was easy as to complete because there is hardly any learning in this apart from our learning goals.

Wait, how does a game reflect learning... I guess I will just have to watch this.

We have been doing a topic of forces and motion. The class was split into pairs and told to make a marble game. Would you like to play this game ? Leave a comment if you do!
