kiwican

Today Room 7 went to Kiwi can and we learnt about honesty and trusty, we played games that represent trust worthy so we played trust fall with a partner and we had to see if we trusted that person or not while our buddy had to be honest and see if they could catch us or not.  once we finished we talked about how easy it was and how hard it was then we got into another game and we had to trust fall with a group of class mates it was hard because I thought they would drop me so I didn't have that much trust in me.

once we finished playing we talked about resilience and then we had lined up for class.

You are baking a cake and need 1/4 of a cup of chocolate powder. You only have a 1/3 or ⅛ measuring cups. How will you measure the cocoa powder?

Simplify

so I took the numerator which is 2 and divided it with 2 so 2 divided by 2 is 1 and then I took the denominator and that is 8 and divided it with 2 so 8 divided by 2 = 4 so 2/8 is the same as 1/4 because 2/8 covers the same area as 1/4.

coding with python

Today for tech we learnt how to do love hearts and name tags with a microbit, it was fascinating and a bit trucky to get it to work. The microbits were like led lights but a bit small.

Here are some pictures of my work about micro bits!

 This is my flashing heart on code blox!

And here is my name tag on code blox!

thank you miss Firguson for teaching me how to code on a microbit!:)

Architecture

                          Walt: we are learning to create accurate floor plans for building a house.

                                                   We used floorplancreator.net to do this.                                                                                                                             Here are my plans!                               

                                                           This is my 2d blueprint for my house 

                                           

                                                                   Here is my 3d floor plan 


What I learnt from this activity is:
- learning how to draw windows, beds and other objects 
- learning how to do a floor plan
- practicing how to design a house in 2d and 3d
- learning how to design a house and rooms on my first try!

 when I grow up, if I join the building industry, I would like to be a painter!.

I enjoyed it and it was amazing!
Thank you Mrs. Raj and Miss Woodhall!

Technology




 Today for tech, room 7 learnt about coding with micro bits and I was feeling excited. Our teacher Miss Ferguson one of our favorite tech teachers had taught us how to play rock, paper, scissors with a micro bit, it was really fascinating and we have also learnt how to do a dice roll!. Once we have finished coding with our micro bit we thought we should have a test and test it out with our classmates! 

                                                                  IT WAS SO AWESOME!!!

Sky Tower

 Sky Tower

Room 7 had a trip to the sky tower, I was amazed and excited. As my class and I entered the bus I could tell it was going to be a great day!!. Pshh the bus started as I quickly sat in my chair.


As we entered Auckland city I could see the really tall towers and the amazing designs that have been created and displayed on the beautiful buildings!.


Me and my buddy were having a race of seeing the best designed buildings in Auckland city. I was fascinated, it was an interesting feeling. I looked up and saw one of the best intelligently designed buildings that I have ever seen! It had a cool outline display like the building was in a cage. It was huge and has got me motivated to look for more wonderful buildings.

As I was looking around I noticed we had finally made it to the sky tower. I was so happy and suprized because I had got to go to the top of the sky tower and I got to stand at the top!. As I was walking I had noticed people jumping off the sky tower so I sat down and watched while they were jumping off. It looked so scary and felt like I was getting butterflies even when I was watching them jump. I pulled out my book and started to do some activities that were given to me by our tutors . I wrote down my answers and quickly walked to one of the teachers when I finished. 


I saw we were entering the elevator back to level 45 the Refuge. As I entered it had metal everywhere like it was literally metal! We sat down and talked about the sky tower and what they use the room as they use it as, laser tag, break area for the workers and other things.


When we had finished talking we had to line up and head back down to the first floor once we finished we all sat down and waited for the bus to come and pick us up.


Conclusion:

I would love to visit this place again!
