Screencastify - Christmas in South Africa



This week LS2 is learning about how to work as a team and how to work collaboratively. We discussed about different countries who celebrate Christmas. We were spilited into groups and had to choose a country that we would like to research about Christmas. We decided to research about Christmas in South Africa. We learnt a lot of new things about how people celebrate Christmas in different ways. We also learnt that Geseende Kersfees means Merry Christmas in South Africa. The thing we found interesting was that people in South Africa eat turkey and duck for Christmas meals. Above shows you our DLO about Christmas in South Africa and we made a screencastify to record our thinking about Christmas in South Africa.

This morning LS2 went on google and played the new google game. The game involved coding. We were making the bunny go in specific directions. We were inserting arrows and different types of codes into the coding bar to make the bunny move. The game had a tutorial at the beginning to give us an idea on how to code.

Maths drawing

Today we did  a cool graph, it is hard it got easier. We used coordinates to draw a dog picture. We used the ladder rule, the ladder rule is easy, first you always walk across and then climb up the ladder.

Tech Reflection

Every week, on a Friday morning the year sevens and eights go to Tamaki College for tech. So far this year, we have had three rotations. For the year eights, our rotations were (In this order), Food tech, graphics and hard materials. In food tech, we learnt to cook and we made some amazing things like chocolate truffles and quiches. In graphics we designed and painted our own clock and in hard materials we made our own stained glass design. A big thanks to the three teachers that taught us: Mrs Heka (Food tech), Ms Ferguson (Graphics) and Mr Grundy (Hard materials).

Hazel Informing us About the Next Summer Learning Journey

For Assembly on Friday we had a visitor. The visitor was Hazel to inform us about how the Summer Learning Journey is coming up soon. The Summer Learning journey is a program that is held over the summer holidays. The program contains a lot of activities. We found out that it starts on 18th of December and ends on the 26th of January. Another thing we found out was that the year 8s that are going to move onto college are welcome to participate and if they win, their prize will be sent to their secondary school. It is very beneficial if we take part in this program because when school starts again you will come back smarter.

Robotics - Tamaki collage

Last week on Friday after our normal tech sessions, we got split into three groups. The groups were Robotics with Mr Dunn, Social Science with Ms Apelu and PE with Mr Moyes. I was in the robotics group. There were 12 people in robotics and were put into groups of 3. Two groups were programming on the Mbot and the other two were programming on the Mdrone. I was in the Mbot group. We had to challenge the other group programming the Mbot by making the Mbot do a figure 8. At first my group found this very complicated. When we had to leave max did a hack and then we could control the Mbot with the keys. We then made some progress towards our challenge.

Inter school Athletics

Yesterday some students from Panmure bridge School went down to Lloyd Elsmore Park to participate in the inter-school athletics. The event that I was participating in was long jump and high jump. In the morning the boys were doing the track events and the girls were doing the field events. After that we had a break. My next event was long jump. The event after I participated in was high jump. We didn't get to finish it because most people had to do relays.

Fire Station Trip

On Tuesday LS1 and LS2 went to the Panmure Fire Station. We learnt about Fire trucks and the different tools like (Ladders, pumps, hoses). The firefighters also demonstrated how they got someone out of a car if they are trapped inside of it (They used the glass cutters and spreaders to take apart the car). It was really cool and interesting watching them remove the windscreen without making it shatter. Everyone had a great time and had loads of fun. 

Fire Station - Summary




On Tuesday, LS1 and LS2 went down to the Panmure Fire Station. Our inquiry for this term is our community so we have been learning about the different places in our community. After the trip, we came back to school and wrote a summary about our experience. First of all, we (I was working with Daniel, Nazella and Shakaia) got twenty words that we thought were important, then we got six words from the first twenty words and used them to write a summary about firefighters.

Summarising DLO




Last week Calvin and I decided to read a book called Robert the rat. We managed to read half way through the book, so we made a Summarising DLO. We had to write down 20 important words from the text we were reading and turn them into the 6 most important words. With those 6 words we had to sum them up into a few sentences.

Police visiting PBS


Today we have had an amazing afternoon because the police officers came to our school, this was probably the best police visitors we have ever had in the school because the police helicopter came and landed right onto our school field. It was a big surprise for me because it was my first time seeing a helicopter with my own eyes because I only get to see them on films or video tapes. Did you know that the helicopter goes 232 kph (WOW!). Did you also know that there are only 2 helicopters here in Auckland ?. My second favourite part about the visit was seeing the German Shepherd police dog come over to see us. It was fully trained and understood what to do when the other officer Grant was giving him commands. This was one of the best visits I have had so far for my last year here at Panmure Bridge school. Another fact about the helicopter is that it costed 850K for it !!?( that is a lot of money).

Dental Health DLO



Today we were learning about oral / dental health and I made a DLO to show my learning. This is an animation Shannon and I made using google slides and it shows why you should brush your teeth and what can happen if you don't. It is very important to brush your teeth and NZ is one of the worst countries when it comes to keeping your teeth safe. So let's change our ways and start to brush our teeth. This animation is intended to educate the younger audiences specifically room 4 in PBS.

Film Festival 2017

Yesterday, the whole school went down to Hosts Sylvia Park for the 10th annual Manaiakalani film festival. The films that were shown there were created by students from the schools in the Manaiakalani cluster. My favourite film was the one LS1 made. It was about two boys trying to survive in a school full of crazy people. When we got back to school, we went on some of the other schools videos and left some comments. All of the films were creative and I enjoyed watching them.

Badminton

Today we were learning how to keep a rally going using the forehand grip and backhand grip. I find using the backhand grip better for serving and forehand for hitting the shuttle. I really enjoy Badminton that is why this is one of my favourite Kiwi Sport this year.

Animal Adaption



Today LS2 learnt about animal adaption. Animal adaption is when an animal has been living in an environment that might have some harsh conditions so it then adapts to that habitat to make it suitable for them. This is a presentation showing how Bengal tigers adapt to there environment and how they are able
to survive in there habitat.

Badminton

Today for kiwi sports we played badminton. For badminton we were practising the forehand and the backhand grips. After practising our forehand and back hand grip we started to practice how to swing the rack to pass the shuttle to your partner but you had to keep an eye on the shuttle. After that we had to hit the shuttle to your partner as long as you can Carl and I got 45. Playing badminton is very fun to play.

Explanation

How Children Learn At School. 

On the first day of school, young students go to a class where they meet new students and start a new learning day. The first day of school is very challenging for kids because they don't know where to go and what to do.

The teachers teach new students how to do good things. They first teach them how to count up to number five and learn how to read easy words from A to Z.

Teachers teach children how to collaborate with each other, E.G (Help each other and share with each other).

Did you know students can learn from each other if they tell stories about very interesting things from cartoon movies. They can also explain what they did in the weekends that way they could almost do the exact same thing.

On my first day on school I had to learn from the mistakes I made. Also I'v lean't how to make new friend's.

This week for writing we have been practising, how to writing an explanation to First we wrote on a piece of paper. Before writing it we planned our explanation so we know what to write in our text. Calvin and I were partners. We learnt that in a explanation there has to be a title telling why or how something works, the introduction which has a hook like a rhetorical questions, 3 Paragraphs of interesting points in order and the conclusion. The writing below shows you our explanation we wrote about How Children Learn At School. 

Screencastify




On Friday we had Ms Grant teaching Ls2 how to use screencastify. We were screencastifying our maths strategies. For this we first had to write our scripts, then we had to click on the Screencastify extension. After that we had to start recording. Setting this up took long, but we did it. It was great learning a new way to learn and share our work.

We played hard and learnt how to protect the ball in our own half but unfortunately we lost. Our second game was against Glen brae. We did awesome runs and tackle but unfortunately we lost 10-17 points. Our third game was against Glenn Innes. We did some very good defence and line outs but we lost 10-12. Our last game was against Tamaki Primary. They were a tough team. We stall tried best but unfortunately we lost. We lost our games but we had fun at the end. Thank you to Mrs Caroline, Mr O and Mrs Ally.

PBS 60th Production




This year is Panmure Bridge's 60th year. There were a lot of items to perform. I was in I See Red and the Pasifika group. I was very nervous on both of the items, especially for footloose because we go to fast and mucks it up at the end. I think I performed really well for footloose but I think I could do better for Kapa Haka. I am proud to be in this School and be able to celebrate this year by performing in a production. 

The Princess Bride - Character Introduction



A couple of weeks ago LS2 did media study on The Princess Bride. After we had finished we had to make a DLO about it. I choose to do the introduction for the characters. One thing I found out was the introduction for Fezzik, inigo and Vizzini, were that they were exactly the same and there wasn't much for their introduction.

Kiwi Can

Today LS2 went to Kiwi Can. During Kiwi Can we played three games which was Hand Soccer, 10 down and Objects. In Hand Soccer we were first splited into two groups. We each given numbers from 1 to 13. Mr Malo had to call out two numbers and those two numbers had to try and get a goal between the two cones with their hands. It was a very challenging games because we had to use our hand to get the goal. My favourite game was Objects because it was a very creative game. In this game we were splited into four teams. Mr Malo and Mrs Latoia had to put an object in the middle and each group had to figure out anything to do with that object for example one of the objects was a hula hoop. What my group did with it was pretending it was a basketball hoop. I think LS2 could play this game again.

Inter-school Cross Country

On Wednesday, the year 3-8 students who came first, second and third from the school cross country went down to Bailey Road for the inter-school cross country. Since I am a year eight, I had to do four laps of the course. The other two boys from Panmure Bridge that were racing with me were AJ and Daniel. At the end of the race we were all really exhausted. We all managed to do decent in the race as we all came in the top ten (Out of about thirty). More importantly, we all had a lot of fun.

Cross Country

Last Thursday Panmure Bridge went to Dunkirk Park to have our school cross country. Boys and girls went one at a time and everyone ran in their year groups except for the senior classes. I was in a race with year seven and eights. We had to run five laps of the course. In my race the top three year seven boys and the top three year eight boys would go to the inter-school cross country.

Tech

Today was the second week of our new rotation. Our tech teacher Mr Grundy got us to cut glass with this material that is called diamante. Mr Grundy taught us some really important things that we should not do with glass. One of them is not to wipe glass of the table with your hands. Then he taught us how to cut glass with the diamante. He said. You need to push your hand hard with the diamante onto the glass to break it, but you can use a ruler to keep the cut straight. I tried and it was really difficult to do.

Tamaki Overdrive

This is a book about a cat and he is watching the thunder clan and the river clan fight for land. After a long fought battle the river clan was victorious and the thunder clan retreated. As the river clan went to celebrate there win a grey cat lay there in the field staring at the night sky. A tortoise shell cat emerges and the grey cat asks if there warriors are okay which they were luckily. This is a book I found in the Tamaki overdrive which is Tamaki colleges own online library. We were exploring the new books that tamaki overdrive have and the thing I enjoy about this is that we can read any book that we want without the hassle of visiting the library.

Kiwi Can Taking risks

Today at Kiwi Can we learnt about taking and to start the session we did an energise which was bip bop bounce it's hard to explain but basically you have to say bang when he says bounce and if you say bounce if he only says bip or bip bop than you are out and you can also get out for being to slow. We also did an activity which was called hand soccer in this activity we played soccer with our hands except that everyone had to touch the ball before you could score and you could only use hands instead of feet we took risks by relying on each other and passing the ball around and there was a risk that the other team could get the ball and score for themselves

Tuesday 5 September 2017

Bullying Animation

For this task we had to create a animation about bullying. First we talked about standing up and speaking out when this happens to you or anybody. We also talked about using our WITS and being good role models. I was working with Sylis, Harlem and CJ.

learning to use synonyms



Today we learnt about synonyms, synonyms is a word that means the same for example mistake and fail. We had to do a DLO about the words we had to search for the words on the google dictionary. San Kyaw and I had fun searching for the words and trying new ways to make our writing better.

Year 8 Tamaki Collage

Today the year 8’s went to Tamaki College to learn about what it is like at college. Before we started we did our usual tech classes and had our first session with Mr Grundy about making stained glass. After tech we had our morning tea and after that we went to maths with Mr Jones. We played battleships, it was fun. Then we went to science with Mr Stoddard and learnt about static electricity and how negative and positive charges can attract and detract. When there are two opposite charges they attract and when there are two of the same charge they try and get away from each other we had an example of this when Lyndon was touching static electricity his hair was starting to stick up. When that was finished we had Subway for lunch which was delicious. After lunch we went to English with Mr Stevenson where we had to memorise 10 words and get the corresponding pictures and finally we went to PE Mr Moyes and we played turbo touch. Thank you Tamaki Collage for a great day of learning and fun.

Why it's great to be me

Today in LS2 we have been exploring DARE. We had to find out a bit more about ourselves. We then, got into groups and made a word cloud on why it is great to be the age we are currently(11 - 13). One thing I learnt about myself was what my goals are. One of them was that I wanted to the greatest fighter in the world. One reason I like being the age I am now, is that I can set myself up for the future, if I continue to work hard in school.

Friday 25 August 2017

Tech

Today at tech we have completed our clocks and are starting a new rotation next week. The design that I choose for my clock is a pizza. First we had to finish painting our clocks and the side of our side pieces. Next we glued our pieces together. Then Mrs Ferguson and Mrs Anderson put the clock mechanisms inside our clocks. We then let the glue dry.

Reciprocal Reading Evaluation DLO

For reading this week Fraidoon taught us how to do reciprocal reading. We were recorded having a learning conversation. The next day we watched the video to see what we did. I saw that I was on task and was working well with my group. I think that I need to work on asking more questions when I am unsure of something and to talk a little bit more.

Wednesday 23 August 2017

Career DLO

Yesterday LS2 have started creating a DLO about what job we wanted to do. I decided that I wanted to be a police officer. But I know that it is going to take a lot of work to get to my target. I have been searching online to find good information to put on my work. The difficult part of this activity was to find how much money you get paid an hour or week.

Flex tangle art

Today we made a Flex tangle which is 4d pattern which we made using folded paper we thought carefully about the colours we chose. We chose to do hot colours on one side and cold colours on the other side the reason we did this is because contrasting colours stand out more and make the art pop more.

Kate Sheppard sketchnote.

For reading we have been learning about Kate Sheppard and the women's suffrage movement. The suffrage movement happened over one hundred years ago. In our sketch note we have added in some definitions of words and have answered some questions. For this task I worked with Aj, Lyndon and Daniel. We all had to talk with each other about our learning so that everyone knows what we have been learning about.

Wednesday 9 August 2017

Kate Sheppard DLO

For this task we had questions that we had to answer. I worked with Aj, Daniel and Lyndon to complete this DLO. It is about Kate Sheppard and the suffrage movement. We had to do a lot of talking to get this done because everyone had to know what they were doing. Talking helped us get this finished because we had to talk to see if it makes sense. 

Rewindable Learning

Panmure Bridge School has a dance production coming up and I am in in the song footloose but lucky for us we have rewindable learning which is learning you can watch over and over again to help us get better at things even when you are at home if you really wanted to so I can keep watching the dance and practising until I get the dance perfect.

A or An

Today we were learning when to use A and when to use An before a word. If a word begins with a vowel (a-e-i-o-u) or a silent h for example I want An apple for morning tea . When we use A we use it for words beginning with all the other words except for the vowels. The DLO above shows you what we use 'an' or 'a' for. I have also included a picture.

2 Words 1 Minute

Siblings
My Siblings are very annoying because they are loud they don’t listen to me and I don’t like them because
20 in 1 minute
they do dumb stuff and they are scared of the dark. They leave the light on, they moan to much and they don’t have a resin to moan about. The touch stuff that they are not loud to touch they cry when they get growled at.
46 in 2 minute

Our challenge today was to write our ideas clearly so that it make sense. We had only had 4 minutes to do this in, and 1 minute to check our writing. Our task was called ''2 words... 1 minute! we had to choose one of the words then power write for 1 minute, count our words carry on for 2 more minute, count our words; then finish with 1 more minute. it was very fun and I found it very hard to do.  

Woman's Suffrage movement Summary


In reading we have been looking at the women's suffrage movement in New Zealand which was led by Kate Sheppard over 100 years ago. Our task was to write a 25 word summary about what the suffrage movement was about. To finish this task my group and I had to work collaboratively, talk with each other and ask questions. We learnt that Kate Sheppard and the rest of the women that were apart of the suffrage movement had a huge impact on the way New Zealand is today.

Let me tell you something.


Let me tell you something about lunchtimes at PBS. After the bell rings everyone races outside to play handball. I don’t bother eating my lunch because I want to be in king in handball. When I usually get there I end up in line waiting in line until my turn. When I get bored of handball I walk over to the park to play tag. When I get there I am in, so I run around the park to catch someone. When I am tired I sit down and have a rest. Then I walk to the taps and have a drink and then I run back to the park to play tag again. When we are having a good time playing around the bell rings and ruins everyone's fun. We all stop playing the juniors stop screaming and we all walk back to our classrooms.

Today my writing group wrote a story about our lunchtime at PBS. My partner and I had to read our stories to each other to make sure they make sense. I had to change some words to make my writing make sense and I had to add more powerful describing words to make my story better.

Summary


For reading we have been looking at reduce, reuse and recycle for reading and inquiry. The activity was a summary on why landfills are bad. A summary is a short explanation of a story/ or a piece of writing you have read. summaries are good because it lets people know about a story in very small detail. Anyway I believe recycling should be embraced by anyone so we can have some positive outcomes.

Thursday 25 May 2017

World of maths

On Tuesday LS2 went to World of Maths we where put into groups with LS1. Then we where introduced to Charles. He was the one that owned all of the activities that we had to do with our groups. We got told to choose an activity that we wanted to do and we chose the King of the Road. We worked as a team and collaborated when we really needed help. We tried to figure out how to beat the King of the Roads. We had to start from point A and get to point F but we had to touch every road without touching it twice. This was also my favourite one because the maths was more like strategies.

CHUNKY Challenge


For reading I made this word cloud. It was part of the chunky challenge I did. For this challenge I had to present the word I found out about. The chunk that I did this week was "est". I found out some new words while I was working through the presentation. On the presentation I had to find words that have "est" in them it was hard to find words with est. Then I had to write a simple, compound and complex sentence with a word that you have found in your list.

We watched a video of a man doing warm ups. After we watched the video we had to go and partner up. I was working with Calvin. We had to come up with our own warm up routines.. With our partners we had to find some warm up videos online to get some ideas. We could also find some music to go with our warm up. The part I enjoyed was showing other groups our routines. I need to practice on being on time.

Reduce Reuse Recycle

 My partners and I made this DLO about landfills in New Zealand. People are littering to much. More than one thousand bus loads of trash gets liters at least every day in New Zealand. So we read some news article   about it and we wrote down our opinions.
