PBL driving question

Hi guys and welcome back to my blog. I'm really excited to announce that our driving for term two is...  " What will the Future Ask of US". We have been looking into this question over the past two days. The first thing that we did was we got into groups of four and discussed what are the biggest problems today in our world. After that we went back into the middle and said our ideas and the groups who had the same ideas or close would put up their hand and the teachers would write down how many groups there was. Next we used a website that tells you the percentage of a robot taking your job. This was lots of fun and have you done something like this? SEE YOU LATER!

Week 7 Reading Task Blog Post

Hi guys and welcome back to my blog! This blog will be about my reading task for this week. What we had to do was we read two books then with a Venn diagram we put the similarities and differences of the text. As I have forgot the names of the books I'll just tell you what the stories are about. The first story is about a girl who is on holiday and she go's exploring then she finds a hut with two people in it. As she is in Fiji the people are in a native Fijian hut. The second story is about an orphan boy who lived near a beach along time ago. And he makes wood carvings. I think with my Venn diagram I did well and I liked reading both stories. Thanks for coming to my blog and have you ever used a Venn diagram?

Underground Soldiers

Welcome back to my blog. This blog will be about a story called "Underground Soldiers" by Mark Derby. 20 years ago a couple of school boys stumbled into a tunnel underneath a french city called Arras and they made an amazing discovery. This is the starting sentence of the story. Our task was to make a KWL (Know, Wonder, Learnt) chart and have five different things in each column. Here is my KWL chart.

 

I think that I did well and I liked doing the KWL chart because I've never done this before. Thanks for coming back to my blog and have you ever done a KWL chart before?

Violet Walrond

Hi guys! On this blog I'll be telling you about a book that I've been reading called Violet Walrond. If you don't know who she is she was an Olympic swimmer born on the 27 of February 1905 in Auckland NZ. What we did was we had a look at the title, images and subtitles as clues as to what would happen in the story. We used a website called padlet to put our predictions next to each other. Next we Started to build a prediction puzzle with our initial predictions. We then looked for more clues to confirm or deny our predictions. I found it really cool to find out more about a NZ athlete and how she got into swimming. I thought that the prediction puzzle was an enjoyable and different way to learn. Thanks for coming to my blog and have you done something like this about an NZ athlete?

Mata i Pusi

This week for reading I'm looking at a book called Mata i Pusi. It's about a Samoan girl and her name means Eyes of a Cat. We read the first paragraph and then made predictions about what would happen in the story. Here is a photo of my predictions on the left. I think it's a good story and that you should check it out! This concludes this blog and be sure to come back for more blogs soon! Do you make predictions when you read?

Lights, Camera, Action, Lets go!

Hi guys! I have officially done my drama! Here is my amazing video!

Sorry for the light and sound quality it was that time of day when the sun shines straight into your face. It was an amazing feeling going live and doing the drama in front of a little audience behind the camera. I think we set the bar high and we went even higher! I think that I spoke clearly and that our message was clear to stop discrimination. Thanks for coming back to my blog and has your school put some of your school work on YouTube? See you next term!
