Te Huarere

 Te Huarere

The weather

Kia orana fishies! Today I'm going to tell you about the activity, Te Huarere that I did as another task for the summer learning journey. Te Huarere means the weather so I had to copy a slideshow, then i had to complete all the tasks on that slideshow like rearranging māori words to make a sentence. After rearranging I picked words from a slideshow to make a sentence like Te rangi hauaua which means a cloudy weather! We also had to make a screencastify but it but I didn't want to. Here is a slideshow of my work!

Bye Fishies!

Kiwi Jingle Bell

  Kiwi Jingle Bell

Bonjour Fishies! Today I'm going to tell you about the kiwi jingle bell task I did for the summer learning journey. I had to listen to this song called kiwi jingle bell then I copied a slideshow and made my own lyrics to the same tune of Jingle Bell. There were 5 slides I needed to make lyrics on. I named my song Christmas Mountains. I think this is the hardest task for me in the summer learning journey!

Pigpen Cipher!

 Pigpen Cipher!

Ola Fishies! Today I'm going to be telling you about the exciting pigpen cipher code I did. This pigpen cipher code is from the summer learning journey, I had to watch a video about pigpen cipher and cipher a code that was on a slideshow. I solved the code and made my own one. I had to make one about a beach but my keyboard didn't have all these symbols so I used a pigpen website to help translate my words into code. Pigpen code is a type of code that represents symbols. To help we use tic tac toe grids and cross grids! I think this is the best summer learning journey task there is.

Optical Illusion Summer Learning Journey

 Optical Illusion

Summer Learning Journey

Talofa Fishies! Today I'm going to tell you about the optical illusion I did for the summer learning journey. If you don't know what an optical illusion is it is a picture or a illusion that looks like something but is something else. I drew a illusion with a pencil on a piece of paper called hole in the floor, I took a picture of it then made a DLO (Digital Learning Object) to explain how my illusion works. The illusion is really easy to make, why don't you try it?

Bye fishies!

Slip & Slide!

 Slip & Slide!

Kia ora Bloggers! Today I'm going to tell you about the Slip & Slide we did! During school in the middle block we got split into 2 groups. One group would go swimming in the pool and the other group went to do the Slip & Slide. If you don't know what a Slip & Slide is, it's a homemade slide down a hill or slope. You need dishwasher soap, a hose and a plastic roll. To make the slip & slide you need to roll down the plastic and get a bucket, fill the bucket with dishwasher soap and water. Make sure it over fills and keep the water running, that way it will make the plastic watery and soapy, then SLIDE! I loved the slip & slide but it was cold when I was waiting in line.

Mindfulness!

Mindfulness

Talofa bloggers! This time I'm going to tell you about our 4 mindfulness sessions that we have had. We finished our last mindfulness session on Tuesday the 8th of December. We had Whaea Stefanie came in and taught us different breathing exercises. Some of the breathing exercises were candle breaths, balloon breathes and more. Candle breath is when you breathe through your nose and exhale through your mouth, balloon breathes are when you breath though your nose and fill your tummy with air then take a big exhale out your mouth or nose. My favourite breathing exercise was the balloon breath! Maybe you can use these exercises to help you if you're mad or sad.
