This vs That

L.I: To find out different information and facts about the Olympics.

This week for inquiry, we had to create a DLO showing information and facts about the Olympics and our school PBS. We needed to work in pairs, but I worked in a group of 3 with Farzana and Sakina. We needed to find and write the Olympic motto then the PBS motto, the Olympic creed then the PBS Whakatauki, the Olympic flag then the PBS Logo and lastly the Olympic values and the PBS values. We were able to find out all of the information for each of the questions. The connecting between our school values and Olympic values are how we also have respect, excellence in our values and also friendship is something we all know and follow at school. The connection between the Olympic flag, and our school logo is that they both represent something that has to do with what it is and it's location, like with the Olympic flag, the rings represents different contenets and the PBS logo represents how we are near to the panmure bridge. The connecting with the creed and our school Whakatauki, they both are encouraging and motivating you to do something that has to do with whatever it is. Lastly with Motto's, they both also have something to do with what the things are about like with the strive to achieve motto, they talk about strive to achieve in learning and with the faster, higher, stronger motto they are kind of talking about your capabilities and your skills and how it takes a lot of training.

Winter Olympics

L.I: To create DLO and find information about the Winter Olympics.
Today for inquiry, we had to create a google draw and answer 5 questions about the Winter Olympics. A map of where it is and where it is being held, How far is it away from New Zealand, How long does it go for, How many countries are competing, and How many disciplines are there. For this inquiry activity we had to work in groups, in my group I had Sulia, Kaitlyn and Hinemoa. We used our researching skills and found out the right information. We even put extra information, and wrote how many athletes are competing. With this DLO, we were also practising our layout, composition, text and colour to get better with how we make our DLO's.
