Explantion Sketchnote

This week me and my partner created a digital sketchnote about what

an explanation means and the different parts of it. We first planned it on a

piece of paper. We’ve learnt that an explanation explains how or why

something is the way it is. The structure of an explanation is Title, Introduction,

Information and Conclusion. I think this will help me and my partner as a

recap for our writing assessment.

Te Tiriti o Waitangi

This week I created a DLO about Waitangi. I worked with Angela, Sandra and Jayden. We needed to create three summaries about each part of the story. The story was about the Treaty of Waitangi. Maori Chiefs wanted a treaty with the British because pakeha settlers were taking their land and not following any laws. On 6th February 1840 the treaty between Maori and pakeha was signed at Waitangi. When the treaty was signed at Waitangi it meant that The Maori Chiefs agreed to give the Queen of England sovereignty over New Zealand. After the Treaty was signed by the Maori the British people encouraged the Maori to sell their land because more and more Pakeha were coming to New Zealand. Many of them wanted land so there was often conflict about the sales. We also defined important words and wrote about the differences between the Maori's point of view and the Pakeha's.

E-ako Maths

This week for Maths we were on e-ako. The first thing l did was try to go over what l learnt last year so it would come back in my head. l wanted to play problem solving so it could become fresh in my mind. l first picked one and then l worked out my question. What was the table for the smallest number of moves required for 1-6 frogs of each color. l worked it out and it was hard to move the fros around because they could only go over another frog or just hop. This was really fun and l had a really good recap of maths.

Role Models/Hero

As an excitement for inquiry we are learning about leadership. Leadership in our school is a very strong topic, because we are great at working towards our leadership skills. For this activity we were to find the definitions for a role model and a hero. Each slide included a photo of a role model/hero. If you were wondering as you went pass you could see that the role model slide had a photo of all of your school leaders for this year. We contributed together as we listed a lot of reasons for each of these definitions.

What is a leader

As a fresh start for this week we learnt about a new topic called leaders. This interesting DLO included information about what a leader is and what a leader can achieve in school/outside of school. To make it look interesting we added images for each slide. Together as a group we defined the word leader. A leader is someone who steps up, by taking risks in everything they do.
