Maths Video

Hello my lovely people! Today I am going to show you my maths for week five! Enjoy!

So for maths, we did a bingo card. We had multiple things on there unrelated to maths, like reading, but our main one was maths. We did stairs to squares. We had a stair like structure ↓

We had to show how we saw how the pattern was growing, I did it like this ↓

After that we created a video on our working for the other questions, here is mine.

Discrimination Art!

Hi everybody! Welcome back! Today I am going to show you some art about discrimination. Please don't hate on me because my picture is dark, it was meant to be like that, sorry if it annoys you. Anyways, enjoy the image!

If you can't read what the story says, it says: "When I was young, I had a running race with one of my male friends, he won, but told me, "It's ok, your fast for a girl". This has happened multiple times, even if I won."

It was fun creating this masterpiece. And now I will tell you how! So first of all, we had to draft our story, slogan, and image. Then once we got it checked off, we had to take our picture. I had a LOT of trail and error until I got the final product. We used an image editing website to edit our picture to perfection. Then we used another website to take the background off. Next we stuck our image wherever we wanted on our poster. After that we wrote our story, then our slogan, and last but not least drew our picture. And voila, a masterpiece was born!

Hope you liked my art! Do you have any stories about sexism? Bye! ❤️

Breakout EDU

Hello my lovelies! Welcome to today's blog! Today I am going to talk about Breakout EDU. Enjoy!

So I was just casually in a workshop, before I was quickly whisked away to the library. They "locked" a group of students in, and it was our job to escape. It was based off of the movie Wonder. We had to find clues to open the first hint box. Once we had actually figured this out, we found a torch inside the box, and of course, the hint. We opened it, as we'd felt something moving inside, but it just turned out to be the battery. We shone the torch on the back of each clue card and found some letters jumbled up, I can't remember the exact order we found them, but these are the letters: I, D, E, K, S, N, S. And it spelt kindness! That opened one of the locks. Sadly, I cannot say much more about each lock, it was quite a blur to me. Finally, after being promised 150 Banqer dollars, we unlocked the box. It took us 13 minutes in total.

I hope you enjoyed my blog post! Have you ever done a breakout before? Not necessarily a Breakout EDU, any kind! If so comment what it was and your experience and time! See you all next time! Bye! ❤️

Week 7 Reading Follow Up!

Hello my lovelies! Welcome to my blog! Today I am going to tell you about my reading follow up for this week. See you again soon, enjoy!

So this week, our goal was: how can we use questions to challenge the text, question the author, establish the authenticity of the text and state opinions? We were presented with some stories, and had to explain what opinion is. An opinion is your view of something, it isn't a fact, it is your idea of the said thing. Here's a situation to help understand. The All Blacks are the best rugby team*. Person A says that they are, and Person B, says they aren't. That is an opinion. Anyways, we had to then read an article out of the following: Australian Ball Tampering, Climate Change Protest, No Rep Sport.

I chose the Climate Change Protest. We had to read the article about it, and write the authors opinion. Then we had to write our opinion, and finally we had to write the similarities of each opinion, here's mine!

*I am using this as an example, did not mean to offend anyone. Thank you.

I hope you enjoyed my post! What is your opinion on the climate change protest? See you next time! Bye! ❤️

When I Say Bingo You Say Card! Bingo! Card! Bingo Card!

Hello my lovelies! Today we have yet another blog. About bingo card. Enjoy!

Bingo card was a fun task, we had a bingo card that looked like this

And we had to finish some of the tasks. I did the Carmen Sandiego one.

So first of all, we loaded into google maps. It told me that Carmen had stolen the Crown Jewels, and I had to find her. It loaded me into London and I had to ask tourists if they had seen her. They said yes, and gave me clues about Japan. I clicked the fly button and flew to Japan, and I saw her there. I asked around again and the clues pointed to Rio De Janeiro. They gave me clues as well. After that they took me to Dubai and we found Carmen! But wait. We got the wrong thief. Carmen was helping us all along. We are now looking for Tigress. Next we went to Sydney and then we found her!

Hope you enjoyed my blog! Have you been to any of these countries? Answer in the comments! Hope you enjoyed. Bye!

Teacher Strike

Hello, its me, Cleo. Today I'm going to talk to you all about my feelings on the teacher strike.

So, of course we all got a day off, as you do for strikes. So in case you don't know why we had a strike, well teachers were upset about the admin-teaching work balance. Because it was 60% admin, 40% teaching, or something along those lines. Personally I agree with the teachers, they deserve a life outside of school, not having to stay in and practically throwing the rest of their life out of the window. Sorry, a little over dramatic. Still, you shouldn't have to waste that amount of time for your job. The strike was very big, and as we drove into town we saw some teachers holding signs. By the time we went downtown though, the strike was over. Overall I support the teachers with their decision to strike. I just hope that this will all be sorted out over the next few months.

I hope you liked my blog today. What did you do on the teacher strike, and what do you think about the teacher strike? Comment your answer. See you all next time. Bye! ❤️ 

Tech! What I've Learnt So Far

Hi! Welcome back to my blog! Today is a post about my tech experience! So far I have done woodwork, and am currently doing foods.

So every Monday we go to tech! Tech is short for technology, and what we do there is a variety of things, sewing, foods, woodwork and plastics. So in term 1 I did woodwork, our goal was to make a Papa Hou (A Maori word for feather box), we did a lot of work with MDF (medium density fibreboard) to create our box. We made prototype boxes and a key chain. I made my key chain an arrow, I don't really know why. So pretty much after we finished our prototype boxes we got on to our real boxes straight away. We cut wood, sanded it, drilled, glued and nailed things. It was kind of hard. But definitely worth it for the amazing box we created in the end. So in term 2 (this term) we started doing food, we created wraps, pizza towers, hot chicken salad rolls, creamy pasta and last Monday we made pan fried toasties! They all were absolutely DELICIOUS!

Anyways, that concludes my blog. I hope you enjoyed my blog! Have you made any of the things I mentioned? If so comment what one! Hope you enjoyed my blog today. Bye!
