Rotoroa Photo Animations

Hi Guys (And Girls), a couple of days ago we made some animations or just captions for some photos of Rotoroa when we went. I worked with Roman, & Anas. Here it is =O

Tuesday Trip!

Meow & Ciao 8,610 people who visit my Blog!
Today we wrote about what we did on Tuesday, you can read my writing to find out what it's about!

When we got to the main room, we were all excited. We saw some native birds through the window. We saw some Weka, Torea, Tuis & some Skinks in an enclosure. Rotoroa was beautiful alright They taught us about some traps & smells to attract pests or to identify them. We later got to pass around different animal skins that come from animals that endanger native animals or birds. Some were rough, & some were soft. Some people were grossed out but I was especially sad. There was a cat skin… but at least it was a domestic cat, not a pet cat.  

After that, we split into our groups. Group A & B Scott class, & Group A & B Killeen Class. We went on a fun journey around the entire island while Killeen class stayed & did a GPS activity. We learned about a couple of plants, saw a pair of takahe, looked over the entire island from a hill, & much much more. Sadly, no Kiwi. After all, they are nocturnal.

A couple of hours later, we all went to a beach there called ladies bay & had our lunch. Mmmmm, scrummy! My chicken & avocado sandwich was the best! Soon after we went to do our GPS activity. First, we had to locate a piece of paper with our group, it had a pest or native footprint on it. Then return to the main room & try to identify the insect or animal on a tablet PDF. Soon after, we had to use the GPS to find a stuffed bird with a few tracking bands on it. When we reach the location, we use binoculars to spot the bird in the area. We then write down on a clipboard the colors of the bands, & return to the main room.

We then went to a cool museum sort of place & there were some cool recordings by some people that were talking about something (I actually didn’t know) & they were cool. There was also a 3D MAP on a table & a cool illusion in-graved into the floor. After, we put our stuff & got ready to go. We had a couple of pictures taken, then we had a drink. By that time, it was time to go home...

Working with Morris class. Joshua learns about Chromebooks! {Late, Publish didn't work}

Today Joshua & I were learning about Chromebooks! It was fun, here is a G.Drawing of what we did! Mark was with me as well, he was with Zion. I showed him how to use a online stop-watch as he requested & we looked through all the different types. Bomb timers, Sport timers, the traditional Stop-Watch, etc. After, we had a Kahoot for fun. Their first online questionnaire or quiz. We came 16th, out of their class. I could not help him, I could only hint towards the answer.
{But I can tell some just had the senior do it, I saw. }

}Here is the G.Drawing we collaborated on{

Toolkits Reflection {23/08/16}

Hi Guys,
Two Days ago we had Toolkits! It would be cool if you went to the Toolkits & you are reading this blog post! But, if you don't know what Toolkits are, they are when we have a couple of classes from a few schools & we teach them some tricks & tips & they taught us some tips & tricks. It was a very cool experience due to it was my first time with Toolkits. (P.S I was away last year)
I was a Techxpert, which helps with all the Technical difficultys & stuff, also with getting kids connected to the screen cast on our TV.

Dance Session {Session 4 - 4 Noooooo}

Hi Blog,

Today we had our last Session with Emily, our dance teacher.

We learnt how to dance to a Hip Hop song called, "Worth It," I really enjoyed it. It was fun dancing to the song. We also danced to a few songs we have, over the passed 4 sessions. We did the "Cha Cha Challenge" which I've done before. Also we danced to a Song we have done before called the "Freeze Dance."

Here are a few Photos I got...

Split Class (Yesterday 16/08/16)

Hi Blog,

Yesterday, we had a split class because most of our senior classes had rugby. So we had tog go into the 2 other senior classes & do what they were doing which was actually quite a bit more fun then I expected. We went into Killeen Class (Link to their blog below)

We had 50 minutes to make a gadget that would pick up fruit & transport it over to us (1 Meter) without touching the fruit. We only had, Nylon String, Tape, Paper, 2 Straws, 2 Cue tips, 2 Popsicle Sticks & Scissors for Building. There were about 4 to 6 groups making different mechanics, but none of them worked.

(Sorry no photos were taken, & if they were they were not sent to me)

Here is the Link to Killeen class' blog

We danced to songs then when the music stops we have to get into groups of which Emily says, then we have to make the shape she says. Also, we played a game called Heart Beats, which we have to lay in a circle and cross hands to try to tap each one on the ground in order. *Sorry I was late to post so no pictures*

Hi people

Today we had our first session of "Dance" with our coach called Emily.

We had to make our own dance, or choreography and perform it in front of the rest of our class. What our dances had to be based off were our first name's initials. We performed in groups of 3. It was very hard for me because the letter "N", is hard to replicate. 
My group was Roman, George, & I. Here are Their blogs: George's and Roman's.

Here are a few photos...

(No photos of me)
