The Crystal Crescent Book Review

We finished the Crystal Crescent today. Raki got the Crystal crescent and freed Tando.
I did my review on slides.
I found it tricky to find a picture of a picture of the crystal crescent so I took a photo.
I found it easy to use special characters for the stars.
Next time i would an image for the star rating so I could crop it for a half star.

Camp Rules and Goals

Next week are are going on camp to Tui Ridge which is near Rotorua. It's a really cool camp and we will be doing lots of exciting activities like the flying fox, high ropes, indoor rock climbing, riding the gondolas, going on the luge and lots more.
Today we sat and thought about what goals we might like to set ourselves and then talk about the rules and what they look like, sound like and feels like.

Here is my goals:

Here is my Rules:

Letter to the Editor

Today we were writing a letter to the editor of the Gisborne Herald. Have you ever written to an editor?

I enjoyed writing the letter because I have never written to an editor before.

I found it tricky to send it because I thought that they would like it.

My digital learning object shows that I can send a letter to the editor.

Here is my letter:

Hi Editor, I’m Kylah from St Mary's School. I go to school right near the Taruheru Awa. Our school has been planting native trees hoping we can get more native animals like birds and insects. But our school needs to keep the river clean so freshwater creatures have a healthy place to live. Our school also needs to shade it because the sun beats down on it all day so it is really hot. But the problem is that there are blackberry bushes near the river and the council are doing nothing about it. People at our school have been to see them, emailed them, and used the Fix It app but still no response. We are frustrated that the council is not helping and we really want the blackberry bushes gone. Please can you do something about it.

Service Poster

This week Miss Steele told us our challenge this week was to make a digital or handmade poster of our term value which is Service. I chose to do it digital and spent a lot of time on it. I had to have Service written where we could see it. I could use a picture of what it sounds, like feels like or looks like, a bible quote about Service, a synonym for service and LET YOUR IMAGINATION RUN WILD!
I enjoyed finding a cool colour for the words because I got to make the colours.
I found it tricky to find a picture for service because it came up with car washes.
My digital learning object shows I can find images labeled for reuse.

Andy Warhol #3

 Today in Cybersmart, we were learning about Andy Warhol. He was born on the 6 August 1928. He died on the 22 February 1987. His type of art was Pop art and Modern art. I have already done 2 so this is my third. Our first step was to take a photo. I grabbed  my chromebook and took it outside to take a photo. Then the second step was to go on lunaPic. I had to use Andy Warhol x9 to make it look proper.

I enjoyed taking the picture and finding a perfect place to take the photo because I knew going outside was a good Idea.
I found it hard to find the Andy Warhol x9 because it was not where I thought it was.

My digital object shows I can use lunapic. It also shows I can download my pictures and put them on a google drawing.
Here is my collage:

Andy Warhol Collage #2

Today in Cybersmart, we were learning about Andy Warhol. He was born on the 6 August 1928. He died on the 22 February 1987. His type of art was Pop art and Modern art. I already made one but I got told to do another on a different site. Our first step was to take a photo. I grabbed  my chromebook and took it outside to take a photo. Then the second step was to go on Artnet.

I enjoyed taking the picture and finding a perfect place to take the photo because I knew going outside was a good Idea.

I found it hard to pick a good art type because there were so many good ones but I could only pick one of them and there were 3.

My digital object shows I can use Artnet. It also shows I can download my picture and put them on my blog.

I found it hard to pick a good art tipe because there were so many good ones but I could only pick four.

Biosecurity Add

We have been learning about biosecurity. Our task was to make an add about how you had to make an add on why to check our bags. We were not allowed to use google slides so I chose to make a book.

I liked writing the book because I like to read books as much as make them. This was different so it was harder than usual.

I found it hard to find pictures of the foot and mouth disease because it keeps coming up with hand foot an mouth. A disease humans can get.

My digital learning object shows that I can write a book on Book Creator, Take a screenshot of the title page the link the book to the screenshot.

5 Holiday Things To Do In Gisborne

Today I started my 5 holiday things to do in Gisborne. We were not allowed to use google slides so I had to think of something else. So I chose to make a game on makecode arcade. I chose to do the botanical gardens, Kaiti hill, the boardwalk, a beach and grays bush. This is the order i put them in and what to do: First go to botanical gardens. Jump on rocks and collect ducks for points. Then go ton kaiti hill. Walk up and drink the water at the top to stay hydrated. The to the boardwalk. Avoid the dogs that are walking along it. Then go to the beach. Pick up the rubbish to be a tidy kiwi and avoid the jellyfish stings. Then to grays bush to collect your kiwi guardians medal. There is some information about the places on my game.

I enjoyed drawing the character because I wanted to give her st mary's school uniform. I looked a bit weird but was fine.

I found it tricky to make the ducks disappear because I could not find the block anywhere. I asked my Mum to help and she found a video on how to do it.

My digital learning object shows that I can make a game on makecode arcade. It also shows I can share my game and put it on my blog.

Here's my game:

September Reflection

Today we were reflecting on our work from September. We need to do it every month because we can sit there and remember what we did. Have you done a monthly reflection?
I enjoyed taking the selfie. I enjoyed taking the selfie because it was nice and easy.
I found it tricky to do a background. I found it tricky to do a background because one of the boxes were already white so I could not make a cool gradient colour.
My digital learning object shows that I can take a screenshot. It also shows I can change the background of a google drawing.

Here is my September Reflection:
