Sign Language Week

We read some articles and watched videos so we could learn more about New Zealand Sign Language.

This week we have been creating a screencastify to show how to do New Zealand Sign language. Here are some videos for you. I am showing you one of my mistakes and my good one. In my mistake one I forgot to show you how to do Thank You in Sign Language. It was tricky finding the right words to make it a good screencastify.

My Student-Led Conference

 This week we have being learning about a Student-Led Conference a Student-Led Conference is when the students parents come to their school and look at the Students art work and blog. We also had to make a invitation to invite our parents over the our school. I found it tricky to find out what I was going to say in my invitation. I enjoyed writing the invite to my parents.                                                         

New Zealand Olympic Mascot

My first Game

For the past few weeks, we have been coding games on Gamefroot. Gamefroot helps children and grown ups make cool games for other people to enjoy them. I found it tricky to try my best and have not finished my game because I was so behind. It took me ages to choose my background. I hope you like it. I enjoyed everything about it especially coding. Next time I would change my design of my game. 

My game won't publish at the moment but when it does...Click here to play my game. What did you enjoy? What do think I could change or add?

My June Reflection

This week we have been doing out June reflection. It shows how much I've changed in a photo of me, what I've been learning this month and what I've done and seen. I found it tricky to find out what the date was on our Matariki Breakfast. I enjoyed taking a selfie of myself and posting it on my June Reflection. Next time I would change my font writing in my June Reflection to make it look more interesting.

Have you ever reflected on a whole month of learning?

ASB get wise

This week for maths we are learning about financial literacy. Callum from ASB Get Wise came and talked to us about making a business to get money. He also asked us what our goal was or what we are going to buy. I said an iphone 12 from New Zealand it cost $1349 and thats alot of money. I reckon it would take a whole year to make that much money. I found it tricky to think about what I was saving up on. I enjoyed the whole thing of maths time doing stuff with Callum from ASB Get Wise and I hope that we do it again. Have you ever seen someone from ASB get wise? What was their name? What did you enjoy? What did you find tricky? Tell me in the comments.
