"UFO" TimeLine

This term we've been learning about unsolved mysteries of the world. I choose the "Roswell Incident" where apparently a "UFO" crashed. Then after the years the Air Force said that the "UFO" was only a weather balloon that they experimented on. After that, I made some presentations about it, but I just wanted to post this one. In this DLO, I also added some of the "UFO" sighting through out the years. This was really exciting  and I really liked it, learning about "UFO's" and when they started to appear. But I think, next time I ever do a DLO maybe I need to put a bit more detail to it. Now after this Ako Ngatahi is  going to do handmade DLO to put in the blog and I'm really excited to show what me and my group are making/made.

Summarizing

I am learning to summarize and retell  the main ideas and important information from what I have read in my own words.

Evaluating

I am learning to think carefully about what I am reading and how I use the text.

W.A.L.T- Divide w/ Remainders

This strategy is also another review about working out Division. In this video I will teach you about 3 to 2 strategy about working division out. The one that I mostly used in this video is really easy and can work most of any division problems, I really like it. Any way have a nice, happy day bye!

W.A.L.T Multiply Multiple Digits

This week we are learning to multiply multiple digits. This strategy might be hard at first, that you won't even get it, but when you get used to it, it would be really easy. This strategy would work when the both numbers that your multiplying are in the tens or more. This video is about 9 mins so you might get bored so maybe get a snack before watching the video or just skip to the important part. I really like this method because it not that simple and is a bit challenging. Anyway have a nice day, bye!

Beyond the Lines!

At the start of this term we started to do a short story about a video that we watched, "Beyond the Lines". It was about two kids that were trapped in the war, to see the full story, click video. After, when we finished the story we had to make it in a DLO not just a DLA. DLA means there is no sight, sound or motion, we had to put those things to make this into a DLO, so what I did was made it in Book Creator  . This was a bit of a scary/sad story because there were people dying and did not see their family anymore, but anyway I hope you'll enjoy it, bye!

Mascots of War

In these weeks of the term we've been learning more about Anzac day. First what we needed to do is to pick a topic about the Anzac/WW1. I choose the mascots of the war, and then we had to do a presentation about it and here it is. I choose three of the mascots and drew them in paper, I also gave a bit of information below them. I liked doing the presentation especially the drawing, it was abit of a difficult process though.Maybe what I need to do next time is maybe put more information on my presentation.

Success Criteria

Investigate this further. 

Then choose a mascot/mascots that was or were used in war. 

After that create a DLO about it.

Questioning

I am learning to ask questions before, during and after reading.

Summarising

I am learning to summarise and retell  the main ideas and important information from what I have read in my own words.

Synthesising

I am learning to put new ideas from the text with my prior knowledge or other text to develop new ideas and understandings.

Evaluating

I am learning to think carefully about what I am reading and how I use the text.

Information Literacy

I am learning to read and find the appropriate information I am searching for.

P.S here are the websites that helped me learn about these mascots of war.

Alien Wanted!

This term Ako Ngatahi started a topic about mysteries. They were mysteries of the world that are still unsolved. There were many interesting mysteries, but I choose the "Roswell "UFO" Mystery". It is a mystery about a "UFO" sighting that was in Roswell. I did many research on this and I found out that there we're 500+ ex-soldiers that saw this event, and it the event was about 5 hours long. Then after our research we had to do a wanted poster about it, in Google drawings. The poster needed to include a bit of information about it a self made picture and of course the "Reward". I learnt many things about it and it was really fun, now I have to try to solve this mystery.
