The amazing Mean, Median, Mode and Range!

 Kia ora Bloggers! Today for maths, we were assigned a task to create a digital presentation to explain and show our understanding of Mean, Median, Mode, and Range. I decided to do a Canva presentation. I now thoroughly understand MMM & R and if I say so myself, did a pretty good job. I enjoyed decorating my slide and making it look pretty. I found it a little hard to explain what they meant, but I soon got the swing of it. Here is the presentation link MMM&R if you would like to learn what they all mean. I hope you enjoy the music and information.

Is there anything else I can add or fix to my presentation? How can I explain it better?

Blog you later!

Whats the Weather today?

 

Kia ora Bloggers!

My name is Lucy and I am a student at Marshland school. For the past few Fridays, we have been working on a Maori Weather animation from scratch. I have never used scratch before and found it hard to get used to but soon I got the hang of it. I enjoyed choosing the characters and backdrops but found the coding a challenge. 

If you are having trouble understanding the Maori words then here's what they mean:

Kia ora - Hello

Kei te Pehea te Atua O te Rangi - What's the Weather Today?

 Kei te Wera - It is Hot

Kei te Hukapapa - It is snowy

I hope you enjoy my Maori Animation and will understand the meanings now.

What do you think I can improve on?

What is Japanese fashion?

 Japan presentation

Konichiwa Bloggers! As you can see there is a mysterious link at the top of the post. You might be wondering what it could be. Well, for inquiry all the home bases in Toroa have started going around in a rotation. We started first with our Home base teachers. Mr Shaw's class was all about the really cool things you can use instead of google slides. He gave us all the topic "Japan", My buddy and I decided to base our work on Japanese fashion. We had to choose a app (Not google slides) to present our work on. We had to choose out of I-movie, Canva, google sites (Which we actually weren't aloud to do) and adobe spark. I choose the one I was more familiar with. CANVA! I did most of the detail and Colour on it and Angelica looked up Amazing and astonishing Info. I found it a really cool topic and enjoyed putting all the detail on it. I think the challenge was finding what fit with what. I hope you enjoy my japan presentation. If you want to move to the next slide just press the arrow and make sure to un-mute it.

What topic would you like to learn about japan? Its fashion, food, history?

Whats the weather Like today?

 

Konichiwa Bloggers! Today, we are learning more Maori pronunciation! So, the teachers asked us to create a poster on Canva on how to say " Hows the weather today?" and to reply with " It is Fine" or you could say it was raining or hot and so on. But in Maori words. I found it quite exciting to find out all the different Maori words and learn how to say them. I enjoyed decorating my poster and playing with all the different designs. I hope you might just learn a few Maori words from my poster. 

What do you think I can improve on?

A Night at the Disco....

 Ni hao bloggers! Today, we talked about when we are responsible for others safety. Then we looked at a few graphic Comics and noticed there was a blank box. Turns out the teachers said we were going to fill that box in with what might happen. I wasn't concentrating hard enough to do the second one bu here is my one that I actually finished. Its called a night at a disco. Its about these two girls and the blond haired one is talking to the dark haired one in box 2. In box 3, 2 girls but in and exclude the dark haired girl from the conversation. In box 4, it shows her with her disability, a Lazy eye. In box 5, the 2 girls are trying to pull the blonde haired girl away from the dark haired one. But in the last box which I drew (with help from my friend) and coloured in, she reaches out to say to come with her too. I hope you enjoy the panel. I am so sorry about the quality of the photo. 

What would you do if some people were excluding your friend? Have you ever been in a situation like that?

The Maoris point of View

 

Kia ora Bloggers! My name is Lucy and I am a student at Marshland school. Today, we have learned more about the treaty of Waitangi. There were actually 2 Versions of the treaty. The Maori one promised the Maori that they would have full control over their lands and that the queen would protect them. The English one says that the English get all the Sovereignty and could buy the land. This ended up with War and confusion, English taking away their culture and there freedom. This video is about a Maori's point of view of how they felt about all the changes happening. I don't think this is my best work because the app I was using didn't let me download it and I had to use screencastify to video. We had to write a script for what the Maori would say and put it on the app Voki. I found it fun to write it down but the video was very annoying because of all the mistakes. 

What point of View would you choose? Maori or English?

E noho rā!
