Yesterday Thursday me and my group did a DLO explain on how to do an Algorithim that has a place holder and im about to tell you what is a place holder. A place holder holds a identifyed position in a number to represent the absence of a amount in that place value.
Why Maungarei sleeps
Maungarei the mighty warrior
Angry bad tempered… explode in fury when woken from her slumber
Her rage took over her emotions As her anger took over she rumbled sending the other Maunga around her. Running in all directions
They knew it was time to take cover before she was surrounded by a smoke screen of fury
Maungarei soon regretted her actions and realised how lonely she had become. Maungarei erupted over 10,000 years ago.
Once there was a mountain called maungarei. Maungarei has been erupting for 27 years and 5 months. Maungarei is now a great volcano that sleeps.
The most playful volcano in the world is Maungarei. Maungarei was so angry because there was someone on Maungarei and that person was making so much noise Maungarei was rumbling and rumbling until Maungarei erupted. Maungarei has become so lonely. Maungarei is the most playful volcano and clumsy. Maungarei caused so much injury and so many problems that made no one go onto Maungarei ever again. And that when she changed into a good volcano in the world.
Maungarei became to sleep because it was getting extinct.That’s why Maungarei never erupted again. The problem got solved when she was never erupting again. And she is growing and growing. Maungarei is around 10,000 years old. When Maungarei was sleeping people started to stroll on the mountain and drive up and exercise on Maungarei as Maungarei was sleeping.
I got my image from using adobe Exporss
This term we had a challenge to make a animation of how a volcano erupts, if you are wondering what a volcano is, is that it is a landform or a vent of the earths crust. The feature that the volcano has is the Crater, Main vent, Secondary vent and the Magma chamber where it stores all the lava and magma. How it explodes is that there are these objects under the volcano which makes it erupt and they are called tectonic plates. They first collide together and pressure builds up and then soon reaches the crater and explodes some of the lava comes out of the secondary vents which makes it go everywhere with dioxides going up into the air which makes the air not very good to breathe in.
LI: to Research simple facts about the ANZAC poppy.
LI: To use our searching skills to research about the ANZAC Poppy
For this task, our group made a DLO about the Poppy. Poppies are flowers that hold a symbol of Remembrance. It represents how brave the soldiers fought for New Zealand against the Turkish empire. Anyway, our group had to make their own question about the Poppy, one of our questions were:
“Why are Poppies important?”
” Why are Poppies used on ANZAC Day?’
” Where do Poppies come from?”
“Why do we celebrate ANZAC Day?”
” Why should the Poppy be remembered?”
We did a lot of typing because we need more information about the Poppy, if we used small writing it won’t be enough, plus, it won’t be enough information about the Poppy. But our work looks good, me and River did the tracings in the presentation. I hope you like our work.
For our task i created a podcast ft Samuel Marsden. Our group Created a script about what Samuel Marsden Would have said when the time travelers went back in time to grab him. Something I found intresting was he lasted That long in a boat but something i enjoyed was we worked as a team and we partispated.
LI: To use Google My Maps to show the migratory flight path of the Kuaka.
This week our task was to make a DLO Using my map to see how far from alaska to Nz. TheKuaka Can Fly over 11’6oo Kilometers And They can fly that far because they have a type of diet that makes them bulk up and they shred. The always have stop to refuel their body with insections and that gives them energy.
One intresting fact is Around 80,000 to 100,000 Kuaka arrive in New Zealand each year, from late September.
LI: To draw the lines between the words to show how the connections you have made.
this week our task for reading was to make a dot to dot connections about the Kuaka Brid’ Someing our group found interesting was we coulden’t think of any
connections with the words because we didn’t talk that much but it was okay because we were starting to talk and we started to collaborate.
LI: To understand the concept of visual storytelling
This week our task was about Making a story with photos How it started and how it finished’ something i really enjoyed was how i got to talk to my friends. The Images just talk about how we got their and And the Things we did.
Our challenge today was to write and record our pepeha to introduce ourselves. I found this interesting because I get to learn my Pepeha in Maori because I can learn Maori and understand to help people know what it means and what they are saying. Representing the Maori Culture and where your from making you feel proud of where you come from too. No reira tena koutou katoa. Thus my acknowledgment to you all. Thank you for listening to my Pepeha and whakapapa.
LI: To use our smart searching skills. Our Year 7/8 camp was at Kokako Lodge in Hunua. Our challenge today was to use our smart searching skills to find out about the kokako bird and create an infographic to share the facts we researched in our own words. Something I found interesting about the kokako bird was that the kokako bird is a large song bird.
