Tent maths!

Hello blogging world! Last week Te Waka Ako made a toothpick and modelling clay tent for maths. Making this tent was really fun because we got to have the tent any shape. We first started off by doing some maths about tents in a maths book then once we have finished doing the tent maths the senior syndicate gathered up together and everyone each got a handful of toothpicks and 1 tube of clay to make their tent. Below this text is my tent it was not finished though but hope you like it.

From making this tent I have learnt that if you use too much clay at the top of your tent to hold up your toothpicks it will be too heavy for the toothpicks and the tent will eventually break or fail. Maybe next time I should try different and harder shapes to challenge my self. I hoped that you have enjoyed this blog post and will be inspired. Please feel free to leave a positive, thoughtful and helpful blog comment. Bye! Bye! Blogging world!

Student led toolkits!

Hello blogging world! Today 24 people from the student led toolkits got to have an opportunity to learn and present to New Windsor School and other people from the Ako Hiko schools. If you would like to see more about Ako Hiko the website is akohiko.org. Every student had to get transported so some parents also came. We first arrived and got out lanyards if you don't know what lanyards is it is like a tag or something to show what session you go to during the toolkits. Our lanyard were kind of like a special pass. Most of the time everyone was in the auditorium. All the school had different sessions for 1 hour. Below this text would be some photos of our school! 

2 lucky people got to do the coding challenge and it is in the second photo for the coding challenge they had courses to play with the trendy spheros they are like robots that light up. The third photo is a problem solving challenge when you have given materials to make something. From going to student led toolkits I have learnt how to sign in the WiFi more quicker than usual. Maybe next time should try improve my google slide. I think that everyone has had a really fun day as much as I did. Please feel free to leave a comment! I wish I could do this again! Bye! Bye!

How to make an quality blog comment!

Hello blogging world! This week with our cybersmart teacher Gerhard, we were learning how to make a quality blog comment. If you would like to learn to make a quality blog comment you have come to the right place! We first started off by using a padlet and think about different ideas that would make a good comment. Then after we did the padlet we filed a drawing with sentences that are positive, thoughtful and helpful. Below this text is my blog comment.


From making this comment I have learnt more sentence starters for blog comments. Maybe next time I should try make the sentence longer. I hoped that you have enjoyed this blog post and you also use these tips to make a quality blog comment. Bye! Bye! Blogging world!

What is a suffix?

Hello blogging world! This week the whole senior syndicate started a literacy tumble. The literacy tumble has loads of activities that you can possibly do, I made a poster about suffixes, this poster will describe what a suffix is. I liked doing this activity because it was quite easy to make. Beneath this text would be my poster!

From making this poster I have learnt that there is a lot of suffixes that you might have not even heard of. I hoped that you have learnt what a suffix means. Please feel free to leave a P,T,H comment! Bye! Bye! Blogging world! 

Lets learn about stars and Matariki!

Hello blogging world! This week in Te Waka Ako we have been learning about Matariki,because we have already learned so much about Matariki we started making a Matariki info graphic. You might have seen me make a few info graphics so if you want to know what info graphic means you can also scroll down my blog and find some information about it. There might be some facts about Matariki you might even know! Below this text is my Matariki info graphic. ⭐🌠🌟↓↓↓



From making this info graphic I have learnt that you can use piktochart or google drawings to make this and that it is best to have 6 facts, but I have used google drawings. Maybe next time I should have less colour in my info graphic because info graphics are supposed to have a little bit of colour. I hoped that you have enjoyed this blog post! Please feel free to leave a positive, thoughtful and helpful comment! Bye! Bye! Blogging world! 😊

Lets get creative!!!

Hello blogging world! Last week everyone in Te Waka Ako made a comic strip about emailing. First we have to come together and find a buddy. Once we found a buddy we thought about something bad and how you will solve the problem. Everyone had to use expressions to make the viewers wowed. Under this text would be me and my buddies comic strip. ↓↓↓



From making this comic strip I have learnt that you don't need revenge if someone has sent something that you don't like and I also learnt that spamming peoples gmail is really bad because their Chromebook would get slow. Next time I should maybe try using better expressions on my face. I hope that you have enjoyed this blog post and have learnt why spamming peoples gmail is bad. Bye! Bye! Blogging world!

Create...Share...Play!

Hello blogging world! A few weeks ago in Possoms4u which is our reading group we started creating a kahoot. But to get started we filled a template and we had a book called "Star man" that we had to write about. To make a kahoot we had to think of nine questions, 1 correct answer and other random answers that will be wrong. Possom4u had to use a template so we can create our kahoot easily. We had to work on these questions because if you don't have questions for your kahoot no one can have an answer. I think being able to ask a question is important because every kahoot needs a question because if you have questions about the book that means you have understood the text in the book. This is my kahoot template. ↓↓↓

This is my kahoot template hope you like my questions and answers! Next time I think that I should try finish my kahoot faster and add my kahoot on this blog post. From this I have learnt that you don't need to just have 1 correct answer because you can also have 2 correct answers. Please feel free to leave a positive, helpful and thoughtful comment! Bye! Bye!
