WaCky WedNESdaY

Hi, this week we had the best day because it was Wacky Wednesday. Wacky Wednesday is a day that we all dress up and wear funny things for example wigs, dresses and more,  really you could wear whatever you want. I think that Mama K (Kahsuis) is the best dressed because he’s wearing a tutu a wig and he even painted his nails.  My favorite part of Wacky Wednesday is that everyone dresses up in funny yet awesome outfits.  What I think that I did well was dressing up because I dressed up like an army man and I wore a wig. What I will do in the future or next time is wear a dress or something like that because I like my costume but I think I could go outside my comfort zone next time. 

Do you have Wacky Wednesday at your school?  

 

Image Attribution

 In Te Ngahere we have been learning to attribute images.  Attributing images means giving credit to the artist or author who made or took the photo. To attribute an image you need to find their name (author’s name), name of the image and what it is licenced under.

What I learned from this is how to attribute an image from Google and how to find images that you can use.

Now that I know this I can use it in the future if I make an animation and get an image off Google. 

What I think that I could do better is attribute all images that I use because I haven't been doing that. What I think I did well was finding images and making sure I didn’t breach the copyright of  anyone's work.

Will you all start attributing images now? 

Bio Poems

 Hi,  in Te Ngahere for Tuhi Tuhi we have been doing a Bio poem. I made mine for my dad because it was fathers day and also I love my dad. What I found hard was finding something that he doesn't like because I couldn’t think of anything that he didn’t like .  What I found easy was finding something that he liked because my dad loves a lot of things. If I were to do this again I would do it for my mum because it would be really easy and also I love my mum.

Have you made a bio poem before?

Emoji Movie Guessing

Hi, in Te Ngahere for our school google hangouts we have been doing emoji movie guessing. The emoji movie guessing is when there are some emojis that represent a movie and we have to guess what the movie is. So Me and my friend Shay made our own one.  I think that we did pretty well because the movie’s aren’t really easy to guess but aren’t impossible. What we could have done better is add more and also make the picture’s png so we can add a background.

If you try my emoji movie guessing game can you please rate it?

Four Shot Amazement

 Hi, in Te Ngahere we have been learning about for different shots. The four shots we used for our four shot movie were establishing shot, long shot, medium shot & close up. 

 The medium shows more interesting detail and what they are doing, long shots show less of the setting a little of the person or thing, close ups are used to show the thing or person with full detail and establishing shots which tells the audience where and when the story is taking place. What me and my group did well was that our carema wasn’t shaking and also we got our movie done fast. What we could have done better  was when I kicked the ball I should have kicked it higher and also get our characters to move more. I think this can help me and my group when we make our movie to add more detail to our setting and characters.

Nanogirls Amazing Show

 Hi, last week Nanogirl a famous scientist came to our school and put on an amazing show. She beat gravity by using a force called centripetal force. My favorite part of Nanogirl show was when she said she wanted to be like Mahuika the god of fire, she used science to help her become the god Mahuika. She used science to be able to set her hands on fire. What I learned from Nanogirl’s show is that great scientists make mistakes and they never give up and I shouldn't give up. How I could use this in the future is if I make a mistake I shouldn’t give up and keep trying.

Has Nano girl ever came to your school?

Dot plot Graph

Kia ora on the first week of term three we started learning about Dot Plot graphs. A dot plot is a type of graph that measures length or an amount. I learnt what a dot plot graph is and also I learnt how to make one. After we had learnt how to make a dot plot graph we had to make a DLO.] Whaea Becks made an example DLO and I think hers is better than mine because she explained what range meant and also she explained it a lot better.  What I could have done Better in my DLO is explain it more and be more clear.

Have you learnt about dot plot graphs?
