Japan Presentation

This is a presentation about Japan.  I like doing homework like this because you don't just learn the usual stuff like basic facts and reading a book but you get to use I.C.T and learn more than what you learn in class. Did you know that the original Golden Pavilion was burnt down in 1950 but then rebuilt? I didn't but I came to know about it after doing this presentation. I hope we get to do lots of homework tasks like this in the future.

Marshmallow Maths

This is what happened when we decided to investigate the properties of a marshmallow. My group were in charge of the temperature. It was an awesome way to do maths. (measurement) We learnt lots of new words and new ways of finding out and investigating. I hope we get to do this again. 

'Sailing Around the World" argument

We were learning how to write a balanced argument. We needed to write from two points of view. I found it very easy. It is kind of like arguing between yourself. First we drew a 'T - Chart' and labeled it with For and Against. Then when we were writing it, it was very easy. I hope we get to do this sort of thing again. 

I.C.A.S Science Certificate

This is my I.C.A.S science certificate. I got a distinction. I am very proud of my self because this year the test was harder than usual. 

Child Labour Speech

This is my speech that I wrote to get into the speech finals. My class voted me in and so I participated in the finals and I won that as well. It is about child labour. 

Rangitoto Art

This is one of the art works we did in Term 2. It was a choice of free art and what ever we wanted to do. There was unfortunately a catch. We had to use at least two of the techniques we used in our previous art works. I used the sponge technique for Rangitoto. I ficked the paintbrush with white and blue for the ocean. Graduating the colours was the hardest part for me because I needed to blend the colours over a blue background. I hope we get to ave another chance at choosing what we get to draw again.

Food Questions Responses

This is the form that my group made using Google Forms. We learnt that the best way to questions people is to use tick boxes. Then it is much easier  to graph your responses. Next time I will make a form out of using tick boxes. Learning how to use spreadsheets and the graphs were easy. They are a  fun way to collect data.
