Waitangi day 2

On wednesday we had our second trip to waitangi, beginning work on our culture stories. Tyra and I made a start on our story that we have been told to do and are planning what we will do. We got the choice of what programme to use to present our work. After that we went to visit the marae. We got the pleasure of watching a Maori performance. In the next couple of weeks they plan to visit our school and we will continue with our project. Tyra and I are deciding whether or not to do a draw my life on our culture and family and such.

Cavetown

Over the past couple of weeks we have been working on a google slide about a musician in Music Class. I chose Cavetown for this because I enjoy listening to his music and find its unique to the songs going around in 2019. He has a style of music that I love, and so here is my presentation on Cavetown.

Netiquette

Today we learnt about digital etiquette, also known as Netiquette. We did three different activities on digital netiquette and formal or informal language. We showed how we interact with others online nicely and not nicely. After that we were asked to create a poster on google drawings...

Migration

This term we have been focusing on migration and have done lots of work on it to help our better understanding on it. We learnt more on how to read maps and more about longitude and latitude. We learnt about the early settlers who came and migrated here from other countries and more things like that.

We learnt about the causes and effects of people migrating to other countries and what happens to a country when a vast group of people migrate to that country--
The population will increase
Less houses will be available

We also learnt about what happens when people migrate out of a country--
More houses available and made cheaper
Less doctors(Poor medical services)
Less teachers(Poor education)
Population decreases

We learnt more about push/pull reasons people migrate to a country--
Better education from a more popular country
A better paying job
Better house prices

Latitude and Longitude

In social studies our class has been learning about latitude and longitude. Longitude being lines on the map going south and east / up and down the globe while Latitude is going around the globe. Latitude and Longitude are measured in degrees, minutes and seconds and help us navigate and pinpoint locations on the map.

This is a google slide Astin, Tyra and I made...

Pink Shirt Day

On the 17th of May our school celebrated Pink Shirt Day. An international day against Discrimination, Homophobia, Transphobia and Transmisogyny bullying. Everyone wears pink shirts and takes part in activities at school or a workplace.

We all made our own posters on a google slide or google drawing about anti bullying, this one is mine--

Ice Cream!

This is a presentation my group and I made about Ice cream, today we made themed icecream. The theme was BREAKFAST. I think we did relatively good on this but I honestly would have liked making something sweet like chocolate or mint ice cream, I could try at home and you can too. Hope you enjoy!
