The Snow Camp!

Hello blogging world, last week the year 5 and 6's went on a camp! Not just any camp but a camp to Mt Ruapehu. We went on so many adventures along the way to get to our final destination. I will never forget this camp. Once we finished this camp we made a slide to show all our adventures. This year for camp we got a $10,000 grant. Once everyone finished we will send the slideshows to them. Here is my slide... hope you enjoy! 



This work was really good and will remind me of the great time I had. What I found easy was adding all the photos and making it pretty. What I found challenging was when we had to use what we learnt at the stops and make it into information. 

My favourite part of the trip was on the second day of skiing I learnt how to do it clear and well and me and my friend Amie were racing down the mountain. My favourite stop was the hot pools because it was like a pool outside but it was heated like a hot pool. If I could change it I would like to make it a 5 day camp instead of a 4 day camp and then I would have more time to ski with my friends. My advise is not to wear too much gear up there you get hot quickly and it makes things a lot harder.

Thank you to everyone who helped out with our camp. Thank you guys for reading my blog post today. If you would like to see more of my learning please scroll down.
Feel free to comment on any of my work. I will you guys in my next blog post until then  BYE!

My Dream Playground!

Hello blogging world, today in class we made a playground. Not just any playground a 3D digital one. We did this because right now our junior playground is getting renovated so we decided why don't we take it to our own hands and create what can be their new playground. After creating a playground we made a video with a tour about it.
Here it is!


I found this really easy because I have use this tool a lot and I am a child so i had a idea of a play ground. The easiest part was when I made everything under the platform. The challenging part was when I was trying to create a flying fox and well... It didn't come out well.

What is a good blog comment?!?

Hello blogging world, yesterday in class we did cyber smart with Gerhard! We were learning how to make a good comment. If you want to learn what it takes to create a quality comment... then keep reading! First what we did is made a padlet about all the things you need to create a good blog comment. Then after we Smrfed a drawing that basically was a template of how to create a good comment!
Here is my work!



I really enjoyed it because I got to know the structure of what makes blog comments so good. What I found easy was the part where there was blocks already there and all you had to do was craft a statement relating to their blog post and the block you placed it in. What I found challenging was the part where after the blocks you have to create a full on blog comment to yourself.

Thank you everyone for reading this blog post. Scroll down for more of my work. Please feel free to comment. BYE!

Student Led Toolkits!

Hello blogging world, yesterday in class 24 students got picked to go to the student led toolkits. I was one of those lucky ones and even better I was a presenter. 

What is student led toolkits?
It is when students teach others to  use a website that they want to explain about. There is spot prizes, competitions and presentations. We went to others to see what they wanted to show us. For the past 3 years Hay Park School, has hosted them. This year they hosted it but the location was at New Windsor School.

For my presentation I was doing.... Making Kahoots with Izzy! We had a full house. That day was really fun and I great experience. I did present last year and I liked that to but, this year it was more fun. 

As I said throughout the day we did different activerties. I went incredibox and my presentation.  Here are some photos of the day!

At the start of the day we did a coding challenge and I was in it. We had a little play around with spheros (little robots programmed by a tablet) then we had a race through a course. We had to go round the cones and I did it twice. My buddy max, had a go and he got it around to. I guess they weren't looking, because they said another school won. Then our teacher did it (Mr Riceman) had to do it. He came 2nd. Here is a video of me.

We also did team building. Our school was 2nd was tallest and 1st for creativity. What we had to do was make at least a 10 cm thing to hold a cup with 100 grams in it. They had 25 mins to do it.

Creepy Animation!

Hello blogging world.
A couple weeks ago in class we had made a animation slide show. What we basically did was we used goggle slide to make an animation. I picked to make mine really scary.

What is a animation?
A animation is something cartoon that moves through photos. In this case we made photos going through slides.

Here is my one. 


I really enjoyed making this. My favourite part was when I got to think of the idea of this and see the finish product. I think the easy part was getting the photos and making it into this. The hard part was thinking what to do with those character. What action should they do? Do they need any props?

Let learn about... Matatriki!

Hello blogging world!
This week in class to celebrate Matariki we made ideographs. I have already made a info graph before and post it but today I am posting it because of matariki. I used Piktochart to make my info graph when you have spare time you should check it out.


What is a infograph?

If you have not read my other blog post you are probably  pondering this question... What is a infograph and that's where this little paragraph comes in. A infograph is short for infographic. On a infograph there is a even amount of text and photos.


On here you will find facts and a video have a look! There is a link to it if you cant see it properly! Click here.

I have really enjoyed this work a lot because I got to use a tool I was familiar with. I also got to write it about something that was related to New Zealand.

I really hoped you guys enjoyed this blog post. If you would like to see more of my work scroll down. Please feel free to comment on this piece of work. Bye!
