On Thursday we went to Brandon for tech.  We were with Mrs Fleur and Mrs Faye We made jam out of sugar, strawberry and blueberries. My favourite thing about tech was how we made a jar each. we got to make our own booklets also my buddy was Dante for the day. I am sharing this with you because I want you to know what we did also and how much fun we did with Brandon Intermediate. The key competencies I used were managing self because I never got a solve it or a castle and also I used thinking because I used my thinking so I didn't get hurt or burnt in any way. My next step was to share more because I got a longer turn then my buddy Dante. 

Digital Technology

Digital Tech On Wednesday we made robots that could draw circles and scribbles. That day we had Praveen and Eddy from Victoria University. In this video, I am turning on my motor and I am versing Dantae. My favourite part about that day was when we all put our robots on the giant piece of paper and started drawing. After we had a competition whose robot wrote the best. My one was neat and it just kept on going in a circle. After that, we got to keep our robots and keep the big paper were all our robots drew on. I learnt how to make a robot out of a  paper cup, motor, and felt pens I am sharing this with you mum and dad because I want to show you how much fun I have at school instead of home and this was learning that I had never done before. The key competencies I used was relating with others because I met some new people and I made friends from another class, and participating and contributing when I helped other people when the're robots didn't work.

Swimming I want to share this with you my whanau because I want to tell you about my learning at the pools. On Tuesday at the pools, we learnt how to keep ourselves safe when we are in the water. If there is a tsunami and you fall off the boat, go  under the boat and you should have enough time to breathe under the boat.  My next steps are to listen and get better at my freestyle, backstroke, and rocket arms.

expressing voices We got a book named What's for Dinner. We were practicing our expressions in our voices    to represent the characters in the book. I was doing a voice for a bull and a fox. When expressing the voice of the fox I had a deep and very scary voice. For the bull, his voice was dark and was very quiet.  I was good at expressing the voices of the characters in the book.

Room 3 was doing an African dance and to the song azonto. Everyone from room 3 had the idea that each one of us could get a dance from youtube then show it to the class. After that, we could make a dance out of all the moves. We put on black shorts black t-shirts and African pants my colour was orange also Pena one of our designers put some face paint on our face and made us look like African warriors. As soon as I heard Anita's voice I knew we were going on so I stood still until we went on the stage in front of 370 people. I felt like I was in a different world I just kept on dancing and dancing non stop everyone was looking at me and I  just felt happy. I could hear people calling my name and that was just making me want to dance more and more. When the beat stopped I was so ...

Tane Mahutas perspective In the begining the only light was from Te Marama the moon. Hi my name is Tane this is what happened. "We need to kill them!"said Tumatauenga god of war. Me and my brothers disagreed. My brothers and I want to separate our parents so we can see the sun. Its hard because Rangi and Papa are in love and they won’t let go of each other. All their children were born in darkness. Both of them are way to strong but if we try we can push them apart. I used my legs to push them apart and then my brothers pushed  Ranginui as well. They pulled him away from Papatuanuku. But my brother Tawhirimatea god of wind didn’t want them to be apart but he knew what to do so his Dad wouldn’t get hurt. So he blew Rangi  away so then after years in the dark with the only light Te Marama there was light. Tawhirimatea was angry so he made lightning then 7 and he threw the lightning at Ranginui and stars were formed. There names were Waiti, Waita, Uru-a-...
