Electronics technology

For technology this term we have been doing electronics. The goal for this tech area is that we have to make a light that is personalized and that we can use in an emergency. We went through lots of steps that we learnt about before we started making the actual light. We could either use a box, corflute of we could customize the design to make it how we wanted. I used corflute that had a picture of a doughnut on the front. For the lights to work we had to do things like, connect wires, use resistors, use copper tape etc. Miss Houghton taught use how to do all of these things which was a really fun experience. Before taping the battery down it has to be glued into a triangular prism shape so it can stand and is easy to move around. This is my one before taping the battery to the corflute

Bees

For inquiry we have been studying sustainability and bees are a big part of that. For our project we made a bee poster and the lines on it flap up reveal the answers to the question on top of the flap. I worked with, Eva, Corbyn, Bayedan and Daniella.

Kahoot for reading

For reading we got into partners and made a kahoot. The kahoot questions are based on what is in the book. For the questions you have to use these 3 reading strategies:
1. inferring
2. Skimming and scanning
3. prediction
You had to have 12 questions in total and they have to link to the book. After finishing you share it with another pair in your group and they have a go at answering the questions. I worked woth ruby and we did it based on a book called frogs.

Prodigy

For maths we started to play a game called prodigy. In this game you explore different places and battle other creatures and you friends to gain money, items and you can catch creatures that you battle. When you are in a battle, you get given maths questions. If you get it right the first time then you damage their health by 1 and a half hearts. If you get it right the second time you damage 1 and a quarter of their hearts. I love playing this game, thanks Miss Fisher!!!!!!!!!

Character portrait

Hair reaching under her ear that is coloured with brown, blonde and streaks of grey. A strong kiwi accent echoes as she speaks. A grey rope necklace with a yellow, wooden bird on the end. As she walks around town she is makeup free.Walking with her baggy, blue woolen shirt on. Dark blue denim jeans cover her legs from top to bottom, dark and light brown high heel boots that make her look taller, are sitting at the bottom of her jeans. Fair skin tends to turn pink in hot pools and middle of summer weather. Thin lips at the bottom of her face have absolutely no lipstick on them. Deep blue eyes that are surrounded by marble white. As she walks towards you with an even pace you can smell weak perfume she sprayed a couple of days ago. An average height shadow is lying on the ground next to her feet. Listening whenever she hears the word, mum.

A trustworthy personality never tells a secret. Strong opinions are mostly always correct. Being funny and having a bubbly personality is one of the many reasons why I love her. Putting up with my sister is like asking for $1,000,000 but she seems to make it work. Open to new opportunities she is always going places with her job. Having two children must be hard but she still looks out for us and all of her students. When she has been put down, she always finds a way to get back up. She is resilient. Always believing in us and encourages us to do better.

Known to be resilient because of a small incident with a girl named Amy. Whenever she leaves the room and her name is mentioned people usually talk about her and her job. When talking to other people she talks for quite a long time. Also known to be the partner of a loving and caring man named Pete. As she walks around town with her beautiful, amazing, awesome children people start to stare. (At her children). Being the humorous person that she is, her jokes are another reason she sticks to your brain.

An early start to the day leads her down her everyday route to her my Nana’s house before work. When she has finished her cup of weak, bitter coffee she walks back to our house and settles down next to the window on the table and nibbles on her cream and berry covered porridge. Walking into her room she attempts to clean the pig-sty but it never works, she picks up her dirty laundry and says she will put it in the wash… later. Home after her children and sits on the phone for the rest of the afternoon. Then T.V and dinner before hours of suffering the sound of moaning kids not wanting go to bed.
