Google Hangout call

For Manaiakalani today used a website called Wevideo and screencastify to create a google hangout looking video. I really enjoyed making this it was challenging and fun at the same time! Next time I want to make it a bit longer and make each person say more. Overall, I am pretty proud of the finished product.

Blog TOUR!!!!

Kia Ora, here is my blog tour that I made using screencastify. I am very happy with how it turned out. Next time want to make my music in the background longer so I can show a few more things. I really enjoyed making the music for the background but, I really want to add more personality to my blog.

ANZAC Background

This is my ANZAC backdrop. I created this artwork on a website called Canvas. I really enjoyed doing the blending of the sunset; but, trying to get that Cross straight was a nightmare! Next time I would like to add some more detail to my artwork. Overall I am pretty happy with how it turned out.

Qualites & Attitudes

In Inquiry this term we are learning about Work and leisure and what the differences are. This activity is called qualities and attitudes. I had to figure out some qualities I have and some things I need to work on. I really enjoyed doing this and would love to do it again.

KWL

For Inquiry this term our topic is Sustainability and we went on a sustainable walk a few posts ago. 

We learnt about lots of thing to do with sustainability. So, for this task we put labels on the sides and wrote what I want to Know & what I want to know. I love how mine turned out and would love to do it again. 

Greek and Latin Roots

In wordwork we are learning about greek and latin roots. 

You had to choose one root word and say the different words that have that word in it and means almost the same thing. I really enjoyed putting this video together. Please comment below!

Workshop Wall

In the year 6 neighbourhood we have workshop wall, whatever you need to learn it is on the wall. You can pick which one you need to learn. I love that you can learn something new instead of learning something you already know. 

Paper wheel CHALLENGE

In room 12 and 14 we did the paper wheel challenge. The way it works is you have two materials: newspaper and sellotape. You then need to create a wheel of newspaper and sellotape and walk like you are in a hamster ball and try and walk to the other side of the room. Mine and everyone else's paper wheel ripped. Here is a photo:
