Some things are not what it seems...

Today we were learning how to make a app on not getting trapped on phising (pronounced fishing).
I liked doing the code because it was a new experience.
I found the changing the code all the time annoying.
Next time I will try to do it on scratch since that was a option.
If you were to try this maybe try a few questions before adding like 15.

Scratch good commenting (Work in progress)

Today we were making a Good blog comments post with Scratch and our characters we created!
The coding was my favourite part of this!
The hardest bit was probably trying to figure out how smooth this would run without a mishap happening.
Next time I will try to complete it before I post it out into the public but oh well.

Pic collage Hamster

We were learning about Collages, how to be smart with media, learning algorithm for creating a collage etc. What I enjoyed was creating my creature. What I found challenging was trying to create something like a Russian Dwarf hamster and having to restart over and over again. Next time I may choose a easier creature so I can try and finish it... 

We were learning to design using poly art and working together during Manaiakalani what was difficult today was working with someone that has different ideas to me, Like when I wanted to pass the ball rather than tackling. What I found easy was to gather information on our country which was the USA! Next time maybe I will try another pose than Tackling because I really can't tackle as you can see in the slide. We haven't finished yet so It will look at bit weird right now! 

Colourful art master piece

Lately for writing we have been working on this masterpiece. I spent a long time on this. What I disliked was how long it took me to finish. What I enjoyed was the finished project. Next time I will try to make it look a bit nicer. This art represents our hand as the tree reaching out to say "We need to save the earth."our hand is the trunk. The colour bursts are made from the primary pastel colours.The colour burst represent oxygen in the air.

Today we were writing some environment quotes we like this quote is one I write hope you enjoy!

Today's problem solving

WALT: Convert money to time and figure out what time did the parking meter expire. Today in problem solving Kelly and I were solving a question. Since we knew $2=1 hour in a parking meter and 50¢=15m so what we did was $3 was 1h and 30 m we needed to add another 50¢ so we added 15 m and our answer was the parking meter expired at 5pm, because we knew 1h and 45m + 3.15pm= 5pm. What I found challenging was explaining how I got this answer what I found easy was the complete opposite which was writing the question. Next time I will try another strategy to solve this question

All blacks Visit

Look at the all blacks and who visited our school today!

Animation time with Nikita!

We were learning to animate a creation with slides and post quality blog posts.

I found it easy to crop everything to prepare for the slides.

I found it hard to Put my head parts next to each other so it doesn't look that weird.

I really enjoyed Animating I am really excited to continue animating and start another.

Next time I need to use the shift key and arrows than just dragging.

Blind buddy art

We were learning to follow instructions from our buddy online.

I found it easy to write my own instructions for my buddy.

I found it difficult because my partner hasn't been on for a while and I had no instructions for a while.

I really enjoyed watching him trying to follow our instructions.

Next time I will try to simplify the instructions a bit more

Winter recipe

We were writing our own winter recipe that includes all of the things that we like to do in Winter. What I liked was publishing it onto a slide deck. What I disliked was trying to plan ideas for my writing. What I would do differently next time is that I would try to add more writing to my poem. What I would like to do is make a summer poem with the class.

Freezing points and boiling points

I was learning the freezing points and boiling points of different substances for the science fair. What I enjoyed was doing all the experiments. My least favourite part writing down the answers to all the experiments.I really enjoyed it and excited for the intermediate science fair.

We are learning how many groups of ten are in numbers up to the number ten. What I enjoyed was converting numbers into words and words into numbers. Next time I will try and do it within the time I am given.

Characterisation WONDER

WALT do characterisation which is when you are focusing on certain person the person I am focusing on August in the book WONDER. The book wonder is about a little boy that was born with a deformed face and is stared at and whispered about. I really liked the book and would like to watch the movie again.

Personification writing

Today we were learning to write with personification to give objects and creatures human attributes. (The deadly lightning dances while spreading anger throughout its path). My favourite part was taking my turn to write something. My least favourite part was waiting for my turn. Next time I will try not to be too over possessive with my teams tidiness in writing and spelling.

Maths prodigy

WALT:use our math's skills against our opponents to win and succeed in battle the main success of winning a battle is rescuing a creature and after the battle you can equip a creature and use it to win in battle. When you win in battle you can head to town and buy all of the wands and hair and etc. Later on you can fight titans and earn titans shard after the fight and earn items around the town you find the magic gems and after you found them all you will unlock the academy tower.

WALT: Set goals for the year to work on. What will be most challenging is keeping up with these goals. I am excited to start this journey.

Collaborative art(Fish)

Today we were doing art in our Ako Whanau groups. What I liked was making the fish scales with my team. What I disliked was my team leaving me to do all the work. Next time I will try and let the others do a bit more work and try not to take over.  

Ako Whanau group

WALT:Work together in our Ako Whanau groups my groups is #4. What I like about these groups is that you can work with people you don't work with normally. The bad thing is I work with people I don't normally work with. I find it hard to work with people I don't normally work with is that I get stuck doing stuff by myself.

Collaborative art

WALT: Work collaboratively with our other classmates to make a symmetrical 
Taniwha, with our partners, my partner was Shae and this is our Taniwha. What I found the easiest was the colouring. My least favourite part was the vivid when we had to vivid the outline. Next time I will try and let my buddy do a bit of drawing.

ANZAC Cinquains

WALT: Write ANZAC Cinquains for ANZAC day. What I enjoyed was making the poems. What was challenging for me was trying to find words that would match the last word. Next time I would change my poems

Free fall

Problem solving

WALT: Tell the age of a figure by multiplying and adding to 15 and 45. The most challenging thing was figuring out the ages of the 3 dogs. What I would try differently next is start with a chart. 

Text me!

Walt: Write descriptive info about a character in this case we are writing about harry potter in the first chapter first book The boy who lived in The Philosophers stone. I found this Challenging 
because I couldn't read the whole chapter. Next Time I may add a bit more detail than I did this time.
