Walt:Create an advertisment persuading people to go to the Special Olympics here in Palmerston North.I used MS Publisher to create this poster.To make my poster stand out and grab the readers attention I tryed to use bright bold colours.I found having patience with the computer challenging because it always ethier froze or someone cliked out of it! Somthing i enjoyed was playing around with MS publisher.Somthing interesting i learnt about advertising was that you have to try to garb peoples attshion by wirting in bold and bright colours and by not writing to much.

Walt: follow an inquiry process and present out inquiry learning about the special olympics unsing MS movie maker. Befor making this movie, I looked over the feedback I received last term for my movie about china.Some of the things I took into into consideration and tried to imporve on when making this movie were talking a bit slower and cleaer something interesting i have learnt about the Special Olympics during this inquiry is that the Special Olympics are held at any time of the year. A challenge I found in this Inquiry was having patince with the tec. I overcame this challenge by just waiting for it to go back on .

Chinese Dance
Chinese Dance on PhotoPeach

Wednesday, September 16, 2009

WALT:Follow an inquiry process. This term we have been learning about China, we have continued building on the inquiry skills we have leart in term 2. We brainstormed open quesions as a class and then delegated these out to pairs. The part of China Monika and I were finding out more about was Chinese food. We found our information on the internet and from books. We used a data chart to make sure we triangulated all our information so we knew it was true. We then used movie maker to present our inquiry. Something I enjoyed was making the movie were we had to film it was lots of fun!!!. An interesting fact I found out was that in old china the used to wright the traditional way witch was writing down and now days they wright the slimpifed way witch is righting the normal way like us. My next learning step in inquiry is to be a bit more patint with the technology:)

How are cultures and Traditions Expressed throught dance??

a comic strip!


During week 1,we had a variety of learning experiences to tune us into ideas about our new big question for this term - how are cultures and traditions expressed throught dance? We had a performance from the Boys High Pacifica group, a performance from St peters Pacifica group and a drumming workshop. I enjoyed St peters Pacifica group the most because they let us get up on stage a join in with them it was real cool. I learnt some new things like new dance moves and i can use them later or when i do a dance.

Walt: Recognise how St James lived a life following jesus and spreading the good news.

Walt:Present the infromation I have learnt during my inquiry simply and clearly so taht others can gain the most important information from my presentation.

The voicethread explanis what i have learnt during ny inquiry on the glow - worm Something i think I did really well during this inquiry process was when i used lettering,colour and images to support and enhance my presentation because the finale produce came out really cool. Next time i do and inquiry something i could improve on is useing skimming and scaning, key words to summarise the main ideads because i sorta used full sentences instead of only doing key words.The part i liked best about doing an inquiry was finding out info about the Glow - Worm beacause i didn`t know much about glow - worm and it was also alot of fun researching with my friends!!!!.

a comic strip!

Walt:compare and contrast different programmes


This double bubble shows the diffrentes between Bubbl.us and webspiration
The Program i like to use the best is Bubbl.us because it is less complcatied than Webspiration but on the other hand Webspiration lets you change most of the things to make it more fancy so it sorta depends.

Castel Point
In the holidays me ,my mum,and my dad went to Masterton.It was a windy but a hot kind of wind . From Masterton we decided to go to Castel Point which was a 40 min drive from Masterton. I was sleepy but excited when i opened the window the nice air went into my face. I was sooooooooo refreshed .

When we got to Castle Point I emeditly jumped ot of the car ,well after it was parked off corse,wile mum and dad were up ubove the rocks I went into the beachy salty water and i forgot my togs but oh well. when I looked at the water there were tiny bubbles that looked like bubbly jellyfish passing by.The water was as swift as a swan It was as clear as a diamond and sparkly as a hot summers day There were rocks under the sand that was as solid as gods hand.

Then mum called me for lunch well a picnic. It was YUM!!!!!!
at least I was in the shade I had some sandwichs and i also had an apple pie that dad made yum!!!!!!!!! yum!!!!!!!! soon after we decided to take a walk up to the lighthouse.We went up some stairs , When we got up there we looked at the lighthouse it was white and red up there were more stairs but off we went up the stairs . You could see the ocean view it was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo amazing “wow” I thought to myself.Then there was some more stairs “oh well” we went down the ocean view was so amazing it was a blueish greenish colour It was very windy up there at hot I had to hold on to my hat there WOOSH !!! a gust of wind past by it nearly belw my hat of There was a safty rope which had a road to go back to the lighthouse .We went down the stairs to the beach. Suddenly my hat belw off “ahhhhhhhhhhh” I shouted I ran after my hat like a bolt of lighting I got my hat just befor it went into the salty water “yeah “ I shouted .Finaly I heard a voice infount of me “ we have to go “ said mum “ no mum please “ I begged “no maria paulina “ ok I said storming of but inside I was a bit tired and wanted to go home now

If I could I would go and live at Castel Point.
