Kiwi Can

This week we had Kiwi Can. It was really fun  because we played a lot of cool games. My favorite game was when we had to go into groups of 4. We had to try and act out something with the chair or the umbrella. We also had 5 seconds to go up to the item to act it out. 

VR Research

Today we experience using  Magic Rainbow Glass, VR goggles and my group was learning about Bridges. We had Yvonne and her research team. They also have a lab called Augmented Human Lab at Auckland University. The best thing I loved doing for the VR was the game, when you tap the objects on the screen to build the Panmure Bridge. Everyone had there own station to do different activity's. I also learnt more about the Panmure Bridge because I didn't really knew what it looked like, in 3D so that was really cool. 

I would like to say thank you to Yvonne and her research team for helping us learn more about bridges, and play cool games. Hopefully next time I get to use the VR goggles because that looked very cool. 

Orchestra Trip

Today we went to the Orchestra Trip. We went to the Auckland Philharmonic Orchestra. My favourite part was hearing the soloist, with instruments in the background. We had a conductor that explain what was going to happen and singing 2 or 3 words from the song. My favourite instrument was hearing the violin play and they all sound on tune. There were different parts with performing, singing and playing the instruments. I learnt that when you play the triangle it is a high pic sound. At the end we had a dance of Romeo and Juliet. It was group of people called the Auckland Dance Project from St Kent's. They told a story about people falling in love and showing facial of there feeling. 

Monday Hitt

This week we had Hitt. We went in Red and most of us were excited and most of us were tired. We did Push ups, Mountain climbers, Star Jumps and High Knees Sprint. I worked really hard and I was one of the first people to go in the Red.

Using Colons

Today we Illustrate a sentence from the google doc. One way to  use a colon in a piece of writing is when you are making a list. The reason why I chose to do Drama, Science Fiction and Mystery because I am a Mystery person in Writing. My favorite drawing to do was the Cookies because I love Cookies and they are very nice to eat.

What are sense verbs: Quiz

Today we played a quiz about verbs. We had try and answer the question by clicking on those words that are list that makes the sentence makes sense. I got 2 wrong so I changed it into the correct answer. It was very fun because I learnt how to make a sentence that made sense and what are sensory verbs. Also the reason why I chose the image because I love Cookies.

Features of a Visual Text

Today my group Motuihe worked together with Rotorua. We all got given a word. My word was map. Most of us worked together on one book to find where does our word goes. 12-13 had a lot of words put on. My word was kind of easy to find because there were a lot of maps on other pages. Mrs Kirkpatrick also helped us find where the other words go on one page. Some people took photos and sent it to most of group members.
