Student led confrence

 L.I to share our learning with our families 

I had my parents come to my school to let them see what I have done during the year it is a oppritunity for my parents to look at my work this is really fun because I got to get feedback from my mum. getting feedback is really good because I know what I need to learn and what I need to do more.

Being a jedi in coding

 L.I to code a robot to try and make it move forward and back without touching it 

My robot will wait until i have pressed the onboard button before it does anything. We used an "IF - THEN - ELSE" block as this gives the robot two choices of things to do. We are using the ULTRASONIC  SENSORon the of the robot and we need to sense if something 10cm in front of it. IF something is 10cm or LESS in front of the robot , it will move backwards. IF something is NOT less han 10cm in the front of the robot, it wil move forwards (ELSE). This is all put into a forever block so that the robot constantly senses what is in front of it.

Reading Pathway

 LI: To show my personal journey through books

This week is book week at Panmure Bridge School, which means every class participates in a number of reading activities. One of our activities was to create a reading pathway that shows how my favourite books have changed over time. At the moment I like reading comic books because they are really intresting and cool.

Technological practices

LI: To use technological practices process to design a toy.

For Mrs Fisi’iahi’s Inquiry lesson, we were focusing on the three last technological processes. They were: build, test and evaluate. We used the required materials in order to build the AUV rover. After this, we tested and compared each group’s rover to see which group was able to scramble across the floor the furthest. Evaluating our results was the last step.

ASB Getwise

 In the morning we learned about money and how we should save money , and spend it wisely. Marlon gave us $1800 we had to spend it for a trip to Fiji. We had to buy a passport for $200. Then we had to buy a ticket there were two options $500 or $800 the difference is that the $500 flight you get no food and not that much space my group pick $500 because were still getting there. Next we had to buy a hotel to stay there we had to choose $600 with food and a open view to the water. 

ATV challenge

 LI: To strengthen connections to technology. 

We have been learning about technological practice.  This week we have been learning about the 6 processes of Technological Design and how each one is important in the process of designing a product.

We are using the processes of technological practices to  design and build a rubber band- powered rover that can scramble across the floor.

Isaac Newton | Reading/Science

 LI: To learn about Isaac Newton

This week in Reading, LS2 has been working towards Simple Machines. Apart of this, we were required to learn about Isaac Newton. Isaac Newton is a physicist, mathematician, theologian and a Astronomer. We were also required to create a DLO with the following questions: Why is his work important? What did he find out? How does his work connect to simple machines? I found this activity really fun because I got to work with other people
