'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.

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.

Sign Language Homework



This is my sign language homework. I did this during Sign Language Awareness week. This was my first time using Google Presentation. I found it very easy to use. My next step is to find out more about sign language and learn a few handy sentences in Sign language. 

Anahita Travel Book

 
This was my homework for week 9 term 2. We had to research six of the seven countries that make up Central America. I chose to present my research using iPhoto on an apple computer. I like finding out different ways to present my homework. I found this application very easy to use.
