Genious Hour

REcently with Mrs Allan we have been doing genious hour. It is a fun opportunity to study things that you want to learn more about and are passionate about. I started off by learning about how to speak a bit of Spanish. Here is my presentation. 

School Tryathlon

This year my maths group were given the task to create a tryathlon for the school to complete after our annual swimming sports. We had to mesure the courses that we were making up as we went. We did a few loops around the streets which equaled to a 2.7km bike. A 1.05km run and a 48m swim. We had to work out the transitions and how everything would work it was tricky but very fun. My favourite was the bike because I love biking. Here is the slides that we made to plan out the tryathlon.

Blog Post Statistics

Today we were comparing how many blog posts we have done in 2020 and 2019. We created charts to showcase our data, on google sheets. It was fun creating the chart, adding colours and fonts and observing how many we have done. We did a chart on our own blog posts and a class on together. Hayley recently did the summer learning journey, and she is very self managed at home, so if you are wondering why she is above the rest of us, thats why. I only have five this year because the year has only started. Where as Hayley already has 51, 46 more than me. Hohepa and I both did the same number of blog posts as me in 2019, 21. They either have more or less than me. Last year in 2019 the first 4 months I didnt blog, because I must of being doing other school work.
Here is my graph.

Awesome Ambrosia

Recently in cooking tech we created an ice cream flavour with a partner. My partner and I created ambrosia ice cream. That was a great flavour because we both like ambrosia. The ice cream mixture turned out like a huge bowl of ambrosia. The challenge was to be creative, but to add one fresh element. So since it was ambrosia we added berries. We boiled strawberries, wineberries and black berries until they were a puree consistentsy. Then we added the marshmallows and chocolate chunks. Then we made an a poster to advertise and present our ice cream. Ice cream is so easy to make, 3 eggs, boiling water, cream, sugar, things to create your flavour and a whole lot of arm work. I loved this experience, and would love to make ice cream again. https://www.postermywall.com/index.php/posterbuilder

Pepeha 2020

Today we used Tour builder and screencastifiy to create a video about our pepeha. we included our school, iwi, awa, maunga, ahou and back to our school again. I found it fun adding icons and finding places that mean alot to me on google maps. Tour builder is a great tool to explain a story or where you have been.

Here is my work.
