Online Safety Poster

L.I: To make a poster showing others what the right things to do are when online.
Today for inquiry we made posters showing what the right things are that you should do when online. We had to get into pairs, my pair was Avalon. We listed 5 right decisions to do when online and inserted 2 labeled for reuse photos. We named the poster - Online Safety, and made it on a google draw. We had to include the a title, a slogan about what kids should do, and our names in the bottom left corner. I learnt to make a helpful poster explaining what you should do when online in simple ways.

Kiwi Sport

Today LS1 had Kiwi Sport - Run, Jump, Throw in the hall with coach Andy. The first thing we did was talk about what we did and learnt last week.  After the discussion we played - Here, There, Where, Everywhere! Andy would shout out here, there, where, or everywhere and we would have to move to the cones that she shouted. If you were in the wrong space, then you would be out. Then we played another game which you had to get into to partners. My partner was Sakina. We were in 2 different lines and had cones a distance away from each other then when we heard a clap from Andy we had to react quick and try to be the first to get our cone and bring it back. Sakina and I had all draws. Lastly we learnt starts. In a sprint race they say - On your mark, Set, Clap/Gun sound. In a distance race they say - On your mark, Clap/Gun sound. We started of by taking a big step behind the line, then when said - On your mark you have take a step forward and act is if you are "squishing a bug" to get your foot as close to the line. If your foot is pass the line you will be disqualified. Then when said - get set you bend the front foot forward so that the leg behind will automatically have the heel off the ground. Then once you hear the clap, then go. Then we had a quick conversation about what we learnt, then went back off to class.

Skimming & Scanning

L.I: To identify what skimming and scanning means.
This was another reading task. I worked in a pair with Sakina, to write down on a google draw the meaning of the strategy Skimming & scanning. We separately wrote the definitions for each of them and added in pictures to go with them. Skimming is like a air plane, and Scanning is like a helicopter. I learnt more of the reading strategy, Skimming and Scanning.

Scales

L.I: To scale 2D shapes using times table.
For maths we learnt what scale is in maths definition and how to scale. In a group we made a graphic showing examples of scaling, and what scaling is. To scale, you need to know your times tables and divisions. Scaling is when make a shape a bigger or smaller version. If you want to make your shape bigger, then use times tables, however if you want to make your shape smaller, use division. In our maths books we made 3 shapes and multiplied or divided them. I got Mele, Nyjah, and Sakina to answer my equations. I learnt how to scale and what scale is with multiplication and division.

Kiwi Can

Today LS1 had Kiwi Can. In Kiwi can we played 3 activities. The first activity we played was selfie stick. We were giving an emotion an tried to act out that emotion while pretending to take a selfie with the yellow stick. Everyone had to co-operate when acting out the emotion. We then sorted out papers which had different emotions from good, to bad and tried ordering from what we thought was the bad to the good emotions. The order was checked buy Mr Malu, and if we were wrong we corrected ourselves and put them in the right places. Lastly we had GKQ which stands for General Knowledge Questions. Then after Kiwi Can we went off back to class.

Advertisement Questions

L.I: We are learning to be able to identify what makes an effective advert.

Today for writing, we carried on with the persuasive advertisement topic and watched 5 advertisements. We made 5 copies of a google doc for each advertisements. On the doc were questions asking about each advertisement. We had to answer all of the questions by ticking the boxes, but I just put dots. Then we publish one advertisement document that we liked the best. I chose the coke advertisement. I learnt more about what is in an effective advertisement, and give my own opinions on them.
