Lockdown 2.0 (poem)

DELTA


EVERYBODY! CORONA IS BACK!!!

WHAT?! 

Yes it’s back, we’ll go into lockdown again, the virus is now more fierce and strong,

Where did we go wrong?

We can’t seem to fight it back,

It has a name, a name called DELTA.

Well if we stand, and be strong,

We could walk over this virus

And stop all that went wrong.

Be brave, be aware, be smart everywhere, 

Corona or not, we still have one more, SHOT.

My reading DLO

Kia Ora bloggers!! Today I will be blogging about my reading DLO. As you know "DLO", it stands for, Digital Learning Object. Now let's jump right into the programme! At first I want to apologize to my teacher in advance. Because what i'm going say is something that I just thought about it totally outside the classroom. Last week we watched our awesome New Zealand team at the Olympics. And I was so amazed about later on that we totally forgot about the nasty epidemic corona virus.                            

The world was covered by a big stormy cloud that holds the corona virus, people were crying because there father's mother's auntie's uncle's brother's and sister's are dying because of the corona virus. But all of a sudden, there was a bright light shining through the clouds, HERE COMES THE OLYMPICS!!! 

Once the Olympics arrived, everyone was cheering on for their country, competing against their strengths, and congratulating each other. Everyone was so happy with the Olympics, we had forgotten all about the virus! Even I forgot about it! Eventually, the Paralympics had finally came. This was all about encouragement, and inspiration because, there are some people swimming with only half of there body, and people playing playing basketball with no legs. You could also click on this link that will take you my reading DLO...

...Did you learn some interesting facts? Because I definitely did! Were you surprised about how much more you've learnt about the timeline of the Olympics? Did you know that the Japanese use cardboard to make beds? It's really good for the environment because then you could recycle the bed! You might be thinking that Japan has heaps of technology, but Japan could also be very environmental.


Well, Tokyo had the burning torch for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics but now, it's France turn to keep the flame going. I hope you've learnt much from the information I've gathered, and I hope you all stay safe in your homes, I also hope to see you later!

What to blog about

Hello bloggers! Today I don't know what to blog about, so i'll just blog about me thinking of what to write on my blog in the holidays. Every time I start a blog in the holidays I don't know what I should blog about. It seemed much harder than it is back at school, because we know what to blog about in 5 days. 

At home (in the holidays) when i'm about to start a blog, I would press + NEW POST but before I start i'm always thinking,'What to blog about, what to blog about, what to blog about?' Once I come up with an idea of what to blog I start writing. Eventually I can image what my blog is going to be about, then I start writing freely as if I was full of ideas just waiting to share my ideas with people across the globe. 

This blog here is more of something creative. I like being creative, writing stories, drawing some art, making useful tools, and so on. The main thing about this blog is about how I come up with ideas, and thinking, what should I blog about? That's why I created this blog here although i'm not sure if your still reading or not but anyways, whenever i'm blogging at home I sometimes listen to music whilst i'm writing. 

When ever i'm listening to music, I don't know how but it helps me focus on writing, then (sometimes) I create a little clip in my head related to the music, I don't know if it's funny, or special but what I do know is what to blog about today. 
I enjoy blogging, and being creative. but what I enjoy the most is writing my stories to you fellow bloggers. I hope you all enjoyed your holiday, blog you later!

My winter poem

 The Winter poem 


Winter is cold

Winter is bold

Warm clothes, hot drinks

Cold snow, a snowman! WINK!

SNOWBALL FIGHT!

AH! A TERRIBLE FRIGHT!

Dress smart, dress smooth

Dress right in the mood

With your collar shirt and your tie 

Your waistcoat, overcoat, gloves and shoes

Moon walking on ice like Michael Jackson! COOL!

If you liked this poem give it a WOOHOO!!

How to write a procedural text

Hello bloggers! Today I will be showing you how to write a procedural text. You have to be very specific, cause you'll end up mucking it up, so be specific and read between your lines. As you read through, you'll notice what I did, if you read carefully.

Step 1. Select a sport, activity, game, or something you would want to teach, for example I did culture games and wanted to teach Aussie rules. Create a new doc then pick some bossy verbs for the start of each step. Pick a title suitable enough for the subject you wanna teach, and write a quick explanation on how to play, or use something. 

Step 2. Write a goal on what you want to archive during the process, then write all the equipment you need, now start writing on how to play the game.

Step 3. Pick a game or a activity, then first start off with how many people you need and start writing with how to play or use the activity, Make sure your reading your lines carefully and not just writing step after step without going over it.

Step 4. Now that you've finished, you have to read it out loud, and use you procedural to see if it make sense, this is the best way to do it, to see if you actually told the readers how to do it the right way.

Step 5. Put some diagrams and photograph's in to show the readers the positioning of the equipment, or people. This will help the reader understand what you said.


Thank you for reading my blog, I hope you understand how to make a procedural now, and enjoy writing!  Blog you later!

Student led toolkits

STEM TOOLKITS

GOOGLE MAPS

Friday the 11th of June (Last Friday), we did toolkits based on STEM! If you don't know what STEM stands for, it stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths. And if you don't know what toolkits are, it's a pair of presenters presenting how to use a so call app, or website. 

First the teachers picked some people to go to toolkits and present. The first toolkit I went to was Google maps. For that toolkit, I had to set a trip form Waikowhai Primary, to Wellington, to Christchurch and back. You could use any kind of transport to get to your destination, but I'm not sure about taking a plane. Next I went to Incredibox.


INCREDIBOX

If any of you bloggers know what it is, I hope you had a great time making music. Incredibox is place where you can make music, and unlock achievements. In Incredibox, you can make the right tunes, to unlock a short video that will play the sound of your creation, only a bit different. 

There are 8 different versions, but the bottom 4 is locked, so the top 4 versions, is all you can make music on. To play with Incredibox, drag the pictures on the bottom of your screen, up to the characters. Once you've done that, your character will make a sound related to the picture to the icon. The third toolkit I went to was Webcam Toy



WEBCAM TOY

In Webcam, you can take pictures with a variety of filters to choose from. You can take pictures with friends, relatives, and others. You can take funny pictures, serious pictures, maybe pictures no one can under stand. You can save and share your photos, you can print it out and put it up on the wall to commemorate a memory. 

Webcam Toy is very entertaining, you could add it to your chrome, and then it will be added to your camera! I really enjoyed my time with toolkits, I felt amazing after learning how to use the apps and websites. Blog you later!
