2016 Reflection

This year we have been in tons of activities and loads of fun.  This collage reflects on the whole year of what LS2 have been doing like for example Rhythm Interactive, Soccer, Quick writes and many more. I enjoyed the multi-modal learning that we have completed this year this particular task was based on pigeons.   To make it more interesting and more of a challenge we decided not to use a collage maker and instead make our pictures layered and with different shapes.  This year has been really great I had a great journey throughout this year I can't wait to see what's in store for us next year. 

Rockets At Tamaki College - Collage

This is a collage that I have created based on photos we took at our Rocket session at Tamaki College. The photos show us creating 'Straw rockets' and also normal paper rockets. 

Paper Planes Collage

This week for Maths, LS2 has been learning to design and make a paper plane that will fly the furtherest. Mrs. Anderson set up a silent challenge, where we did not speak and learn't to communicate through our actions. We were put into groups of 5-6 and trialled many different designs to make the ultimate and final design. We did this by searching the internet for step to step designs and watching Youtube Videos that showed us how to make the paper plane as well. After each person in our group had made a paper plane, we decided to fly them off the balcony, in class, on the field and on the playground. We had different designs so each plane landed in different places. I think everyone in LS2 enjoyed this activity and at the same time, learned a lot since we had to think about our designs, how we found them and collaborated with our team at the same time.

This is my term 1 photo collage. They are the main highlights of term 1. They are also many things that I have enjoyed at school. It includes our amazing trip welcoming the crew and the boat of Hokulea, our fabulous time with Shavaughn Ruakere, my duffy books that were supported by Mainfreight and our amazing experience through art with Grahamm Dodd. I have created this easy and fun collage on a free site. If you would like to try it here is the link -  http://www.photovisi.com/

Our Fascinating Trip To Botanical Gardens

On Tuesday the 17th of June 2014, we had a wonderful day at Botanical Gardens. We got there by bus. We learnt so much. I learn't:

Why forests are so important to Earth. This is how I remember why forests are so important:

Food

Oxygen

Recycle

Enjoyment

Shady habitats

Things to use

Soil erosion

We learn't what happens when a leaf falls on the ground. First its fully green, then it turns yellow or green from the bacteria or fungi. Later on a bug, invertebrate or insect eats it.  The skeleton is the only thing that is left.

I learn't what FBI means. It is short for Fungi, bacteria and invertebrates. 

We also learn't about endangered and rare animals.
