What is coding? 

Coding is a digital language used for
computers if you play around with codes
and you typed in “step 4 backward” It will
take 4 steps backward. If you had a box 

On the screen and it said beside it 

(42, 300, 54) and you played with it and
changed the numbers you could make the
box huge or tiny 

My Fort

Today I was learning about how to build a fort like the soldiers did in the Gallipoli campaign
I enjoyed sitting/lying down and doing my work
I found it challenging to stay cool under the heat in my fort
My digital learning object shows that I know how to build a fort
Next time I would change nothing
FYI the cup in the background was empty and the sandwich was there for the photo only I ate it out side of the fort

Sustainable Sea-Seaweek

Today I was learning and watch a webinar and it taught us about the marine life and how the ecosystem works.
I enjoyed putting in all the amazing colours
I found it challenging to highlight all the individual leters

museum visit

This is the waka that I made at school. People from the museum taught us about Horouta which is the waka that Paoa and Kiwa used to travel to Aotearoa. The people from the museum were so nice when they came to our school, and they taught us all about Paoa and Kiwa and how they travelled to Aotearoa

When Paoa and Kiwa
sailed from Hawaiki (we don't know where Hawaiki is. Do you?) to Aotearoa they were using a 
hourua waka, which is a double hulled waka. They brought kumara with them and this is how kumara first came to New Zealand. They were happily sailing along when they came to a sudden stop because they crashed into a sandbar at Ohiwa and the waka broke. Paoa had to go cut down a special tree to repair it. When Kiwa was in Ohiwa she made some minor repairs and sailed past the East Cape and on to Gisborne/Turanganui-a-kiwa which is where Paoa was sailing to, sitting on the tree down Waipaoa River. They meet out at Wainui Beach where they fixed the waka. 

trap and tracking

Over the last few weeks we have been learning about predators Kauri came in and taught us how to…. When you set a trap you need to remember these top tips…. We hope to catch…. Over the last few weeks we have been learning about predators that we are going to catch like weasels,rats,mice,ferrets.And lots more predators that I can’t think of.

 Maybe we could set tracking tunnels wait I think we have yeah we have and we Found out that there are rats and mice in our school we put peanut butter in the middle of the tracking tunnel footprints. To record the animals footprints we put peanut butter and ink to record the predators footprints in the middle of the tracking tunnel as well. And we set traps and the trip has a roof that we can nail down so no fingers get hurt. The traps is called Victor 2 and Doc 200

Epic journey

We were learning about Epic journeys.
I found it easy to to find were we can go.
I found it hard to find the costs of our flights.
I really enjoyed creating our slides.
Next time I need to add more wow words.
