Come and Learn Some Things About The Continents With Me!

WALT: Using code and making a scratch animation for our theme!

Instructions - Firstly press space and wait for the cat to disappear. Press left arrow key and wait until the background turns back to the World Map. Then Press 'C' key then sit back and relax and enjoy the show! If you would like to restart it and watch it again press b and repeat the same steps!

Task Description -
This is my scratch animation and let me tell you some things about it. This was my first time playing around with scratch so it was a bit hard for me to code but I seemed to be doing great. What I learned was a lot of things about the continents and it's up on my blog if you want to check some of those out. Making this took some time and effort into it, I think I took about a month to make this whole thing. The music is suppose to represent the country meaning it's a song from that country/continent. The last one which is Paris, that song wasn't actually from Paris but I just chose a random song that I could find.

Everyone know that there are 7 continents but sometimes I wonder what about New Zealand. It doesn't seem to be in the world map when you search up 7 continents, If I were ever a debating person, I would debate for my life. New Zealand deserves to be at least something, even though it is a country, it deserves MORE! Anyways, I hope you enjoy my little animation and if you want comment down below what you think but please be positive. LOVE YOU GUYS LOTS <3

Fractions Finale!

WALT: We are learning to multiply fractions

Task Description -

This week we have been learning about fractions as usual. I think I have improved a lot every week so this is just 2 slides to show you that I can work out these questions that my teacher has given me. Some were difficult but I got through it.

Kiwi Animal Facts!

WALT: Use the elements of an Information Report to write a report about different topics.

Have you ever heard of a type of animal named Kiwi? Do you know New Zealand's native animal? I will be telling you about NZ’s native animal and some facts that others didn’t know about.

New Zealand’s most famous native animal is endangered. Why? Approximately 27 kiwi’s are killed by predators every week. Ferrets, Possums and Pigs are the predators that kill kiwi’s nearly every day. Us New Zealanders haven’t seen kiwi’s in a long time so most people are certain that they’ll be gone many years from now. A Kiwi is a little brown fluff ball with a long beak. Kiwi’s are flightless – their Latin species name is Apteryx, which means wingless, It has feathers like hair, nostrils at the end of its beak and an enormous egg.

These were the only facts that I knew about Kiwi’s so I hope one day you’ll eventually learn more about them. If you ever get to see one do not scare it away, do not try to kill it because we are losing them by the second of it. I hope this learning helps you throughout this year and enjoy.

Task Description -

Just like the other weeks we have a topic and we write about it. Whaea Kelly gave us a choice to write about a place or something within New Zealand. I picked our native bird Kiwi. Reason why is because Kiwis are about to be extinct. Why? because all of the Kiwis predators are hunting them down every day of our lives and they have no protection because they are flightless. Just like a penguin they are a bird that cannot fly. This is what my writing is about and I hope you learn something new.

The Middle Number

WALT: We are learning to solve out how to get the middle number

Task Description -

Today in math's class we didn't start off doing our slides questions for math's but Mrs Stone put up a question to see what would be the in between number. I did a workshop before doing this because I didn't quite understand but now that I understood how to do it, I worked it out on my book and put it on a google drive to show you guys how I solved this question. 31/480 is between 1/16 and 1/15 meaning that's the middle number between those two numbers. Enjoy my math's and try out these type of math's in your own time!

Fabulous Fractions!

Task Description -

This week my group has just been reading two poems. These two poems were called - "Giving My Father Frights" = "Brave Flower". The last slide I was a bit confused so I just did some normal poems about some subjects I thought of. Most of these slides are just questions and answers, I hope you enjoy!

TACOS!!! For The Mexicans And Americans!

WALT: Recognize and use the Informational Writing.
Don’t we just love tacos! Did you know that this type of food was made in Mexico? I will be telling you about the amazing, delicious and most famous Mexican food….. TACOS!

Tacos! As we all know tacos are the greatest food/dish that we could ever have. America is one of the places that you would definitely find tacos and that’s because they eat TONS of tacos, they probably eat it every day! When it’s Taco Tuesday, no one messes around because it’s such a traditional/national day for all Mexicans and maybe even Americans! Tacos are so filling but the word taco means light lunch??? In my opinion, I would change it to FILLING lunch because I can get full on one taco. Did you also know that Taco was first created/made in the 1950s! Surprising right? Something that we love eating and still eat this present day has been around for so many years!

These are the only facts that I know about Tacos so I hope you enjoyed knowing these little facts about Mexico’s delicious tacos. Just remember TACOS WERE MADE IN MEXICO!!! Just a reminder to all those Americans who somehow don’t like Mexicans!
