Twelve days of Christmas

 We were learning about how to make a song about our twelve days of Christmas and working with my buddies to get through our mahi(work) faster.

I found it easy to help my friends in need to complete their slides but I didn't do it for them I just helped the through.

I found it hard to find the right pictures for our slides like the All blacks because it came up with soccer players.

All about me.

My name is Zara and I go to Awapuni School. I'm a New Zealander and I live in Whangara and I've got four siblings and my parents. I live on a farm with a couple of Dogs, cats, horses and also  one fish.

As a learner I like sports,Writing and Reading. I'm good at writing because it's very fun for me to write because I get to make up some cool stories. Enjoy the teacher's reading to us and Playing on the playground with my friends. Challenges at school would be art  and spelling.  My goal for this year is to be more confident towards my learning and speak a lot more to others in a group. 

 I'm looking forward to  Gisborne intermediate next year. My mum inspires me with my sports because she really thinks I'm talented. 

I’m looking forward to learning on my device more. My learning on my blog is hard but it also helps me learn better on my blog. The people who want to contact me is my friends,family and my teachers.

Teaser Activity.

 We were learning about how to use Art Colouring Book to make a picture or photo to see which one is the real one and which one is your one.

I found it easy to complete this activity in the time I was given and to use my tools wisly for my choice of activity.

I found it hard to worry about myself because the rest of my group did not no where to find the Art Colouring Book.

Next time I will look at the picture to make it look the same to give you a big challenge and to make more pictures for you to have a peek.

Hope you enjoy. 

Cybersmart screencastify.

 We were learning about how to make a screencastify about mindset, skillset, toolset , what we have learnt this year and other learning that we use during Manaiakalani time. These are the slides I've made for my review with my cooperative group and we made one or two slides each.I found it hard to do my screencastify with my group because some were talking loud and the others were talking quite so we made the volume up more for the quiet ones. We made a little mistake with the star because someone else made Willow giggle.It was easy to work with my group to get the job done just in time.Next time I will not be a distraction to my group so we get the job done faster.

My Guy Fawkes Poems

 We were learning about how we celebrate Guy Fawkes and who Guy Fawkes was. Our teachers had a litter and lid up a sparkler and showed us what it looks like and smells like so we can right about the fireworks and guy fawkes. We also watched a video of fireworks in england and Mrs Bava read us a story about guy Fawkes to help us write about it. 

I enjoyed watching the sparklers , the smell because it smells really nice and I'm so used to it. I also enjoyed writing about Guy Fawkes because I have never heard of him and it's good to learn something new that you had never heard of before.

I found it hard to think of some sentences because it has to be involved with the fireworks and Guy Fawkes. 

Next time I will find more challenges for me to complete and to focus on my sentences to my writing.

 This is the water cycle, I made it with my friend Tilly.

 We were learning about how the water cycle works, how we can describe what the water cycle looks like, and that we were not allowed to use images from google.

I found it easy to work with my buddy to work on our project and to make the sun look cool and HOT!

I found it challenging to decide which place each clouds, snow, thunder, rain goes and how to sneakily put glasses on the sun because Tilly and I used a image on google.

I achieved my project by working quietly with my buddy and we each decided that Tilly will work on the ocean,sun,waves, and the words. I had to do the clouds, snow, rain, thunder, and the mountains.

Next time I will make my mountains a bit straighter and maybe add some birds into the background to make it look better.😃😄
