Christmas in Switzerland

To celebrate Christmas we got into groups of four and worked collaboratively to find out about Christmas in different countries all around the world. My group worked on Switzerland and we found a lot of interesting things about Switzerland like how they call their Santa Samichlaus. .To show our learning we recorded our google slides using screencastify. I worked on this DLO with Ma'ata, Calvin, Sylis, and Lyric. 

Elections - Prime Minister

 

THIS TASK IS TASK TWO, FOR TASK TWO WE PICKED JENNY SHIPLEY TO MAKE A DLO ABOUT. WE CREATED A DLO THAT TELLS US ABOUT JENNY SHIPLEY LIFETIME. I DID A FUN COLLABORATIVE ACTIVITY WITH MY GROUP LEARNING ABOUT PRIME MINISTERS.

Election - Padlet

Our focus for today is to complete our 3 tasks about elections. This task is task one, For task one we made a padlet that explains and answers these three question and they are: what is an election, why we have an election, and what happens during an election.

The Wednesday Wars

  

 






Today is read an ebook day, I decided to read this book called The Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt from the Tamaki College overdrive. This book is about Holling Hoodhood he is a seventh grader in 1967. In his school, the student body is largely divided between Catholics and Jews, and every Wednesday both groups go to their separate churches for religious classes. You can find this book on the tamaki college overdrive site.

Week 9 Dance

This morning I was working with Shakaia and Sky to put our dance and the dance that inspired us on one google slide presentation. The thing that I found hard was trying to be in sync with the other and trying not to laugh a lot. What I found easy was co-operating with each other and trying new ways to make our dance look good. 

Tongan New Years

On Monday we started doing a Matariki study and we had to do 3 different tasks. This is the first task, for this task we had to create a DLO that shows How do different cultures celebrate the winter solstice?.
