Te Whare Tapa Wha - Learning In Lockdown

 Hi guys!

I made my own Whare Tapa Wha, it is about well being and how you can become a better person.

Here is my poster!

There are 5 themes:

- Taha Hinengaro - Mental and Emotional

- Taha Wairua - Spiritual

- Taha Timata - Physical

- Taha Whanau - Family and Social

- Whenua - Roots and Land

All of these represent a small house that is part of you. There are tips and advice I have put in there.

Cybersmart - What is Media?

 Hi guys today our class did a Cybersmart lesson with Phil from Ako Hiko - https://akohikolcs.blogspot.com/

Anyways, one of our tasks was to make a poster about social media and what it tells us. Here is my one:

Media is a type of way to:

- Tell people information

- Entertain

- Persuade

- Share some news

Things such as Youtube, Netflix, 1 News, TikTok and adverts, all those are counted as media as some of them entertain, some tell people information and some persuade such as ads and billboards with discounts.

That's all for today!

My Promise - Learning In Lockdown

 Hi guys! I made a poster yesterday about how we should keep the land tidy and be responsible. I got inspiration from my friend Ysabella - https://nwsysabellan.blogspot.com/2021/10/my-promise.html

Here is my one!

It says - I promise I will take care of the land, making it spotless and perfect, where ever I go.

This was one of out writing tasks we had to do.

Hope you like it!

Maths - Learning In Lockdown

https://www.nctm.org/Classroom-Resources/Illuminations/Interactives/Tessellation-Creator/

 Hi guys!

Today in Math / Mathematics we did:

Tessellations

A Tessellation is a type of pattern that can keep going, using 2D shapes and forming patterns that can repeat and repeat and repeat forever! Here is an example:

As you can see, there are different shapes right? There are triangles, squares, lots! But if you look closely, a pack of triangles and squares can make a small oval right? You can see that horizontally or vertically!

FYI - (It says oval, if you cant see it properly.)

One of our tasks was to make one using this website: https://www.nctm.org/Classroom-Resources/Illuminations/Interactives/Tessellation-Creator/

Here is my one:

I made one using

- Hexagons

- Triangles

It was fun but took some time to do it.

You can try it out too! Use different shapes and connect them and see what happens!

Writing Task - Learning In Lockdown

 Hey guys! Long time no see!

Did you enjoy the school holidays? I certainly did!

Anyways, here is some writing we did online today!

1. Research about Humpback Whales, 5 facts on Google Slides:

2. Create a poster about being responsible:

3. Writing task with these pictures:

1. I see a mountain, with a small curved cave underneath, a wooden boat on the surface of the water.

2. I see rocks, green seaweed on top, the clear blue water over the sand.

3. I see sand, glistening with the ocean, the grass sitting quietly next to some rocks.

4. I see palm trees, the green leaves dancing with the wind, the ocean sweeping the sand away from shore.

5. I see a tunnel, leading away from the shore, forming big waves, patting the sand

6. I see a lady, with a colourful object, its colours calling out, as if it was bright and joyous.

Hope you like it!
