WW1 transport DLO

This week Matthew, Viliami, Nidhi, I worked together creating this DLO. This DLO tells us about the troopship or transport ship that was used in World War one. While reaching about these information we have found out a lot of interesting facts. All of us worked collaboratively to gathering these information. Making this DLO was a lot of fun and we have learnt a lot of things.

7 continents pf the world DLO

In Inquiry we have been focusing about the continents of the world this relates to General knowledge. During our learning experience about getting to know about the worlds continents Nidhi and I worked collaboratively on a DLO about the 7 continents of the world. We have learnt a lot of new things about these continents including the countries that are home to these 7 continents. Did you know that each continent has its own ocean like Asia, Africa, Australia, Europe, North america. We have pulled together a DLO that will explain information about the different continents and the oceans. 

Why kokako lodge is a great place for year 7/8 to go to camp

This Week in Writing Sandra, Miiana, Fui and I worked collaboratively together  to create a 50 word summary and a idea list. Together in our group of 4 we created a screen castify explaining our ideas about why kokako lodge is  a great place for year 7/8 students to go to camp. This gives kids the oppitunity to get involved in each activity. Our ideas helped us create a digital version of our response to siri. We listed all of our ideas down on pieces of sheet. So we collaboratively combined all of our ideas into a video. 

Tech at Tamaki college- Metal work

Tech at Tamaki College was great. In Metal work the Yr 8B were up to polishing their handles and are now starting to work on their base. I am now polishing my handle and using rough sand paper to erase the marks from off of my design. I'm am proud of myself because I have almost complete my handle. I like to thank Mr Nika for helping me with my design.  

Blog Post Data Analysis

In Maths I created a blog post analysis showing the average and amount of blog post that I have posted. What I found interesting about my analysis was that in 2017 I posted 174 blog posts which was my highest amount in one year. I have written an explanation about my blogging analysis. My goal was to reach 800 blog posts by the end of this year so I have to post 4 blog posts each week to achieve this. 

Stretching sentences

In Writing I have been learning how to stretch my sentences using the 5wś and H. 
This helps to make my sentences more detailed and interesting. I´ve created a DLO to explain how to stretch my sentences using who, what, when, where, why and how. 
I also created my own example to show an Adverb and noun in my sentences.
This DLO will talk about how to add an adverb or noun and where to put the 5wś and H. 
I need to work on adding vocabulary in my sentences.

The Conquences of Making bad choices

In the first block we were visited from constable Cyrus who came in to talk about the dare program. The DARE program is program that teaches younger students about drugs and how it can affect the way you act. We learnt a lot about how drugs can affect the way we act. This is an important message because 120 new Zealanders die because of taking drugs/ someone else. I created this DLO to show the many life affects about drugs. I have an information poster linking to all of the drugs that can affect you.
