Cheyenne's Xmas Presentation

Here is Cheyenne's presentation about Xmas. She made it for her homework last week.
Each slide will show for 4 seconds, so you will need to pause the video to read all of the writing on some of the slides. Sorry that it's a bit hard to read in places.


Recently...

Hi Bronte, and everybody else.
We have been very busy lately, and have been doing lots of different things. Unfortunately, we have not had the cow lately, so have not been able to make some posts on the blog. We should put something up this or maybe next week.
In art, we have been making some street art, which I will take photos of and post next week hopefully. We also designed a new logo for the school. I wonder if anybody from Pod 9 will win the school-wide competition. Hope so.
Did you know that next Friday (5th Dec) is National Jandal Day. This is to raise money for Surf Lifesaving NZ. We're going to have a competition at school, where you can win a battery powered motorboat.
Pod 9 won their Tapuwae semi-final yesterday against Pod 7 and will play either Pod 8 or Pod 10 in the final next week.
As for me (Mr B), I'm spend these 2 days at this year's TechQuest at Forum North. I'm taking a workshop on podcasting. I must say that I'm very impressed with what the students have been able to do. I'm sure the kids back at school would love to see the results.
Until next time, be safe.
Mr Buckland.

Hi everyone
Just seeing how you guys are, have you been doing any thing interesting? Well today we did word wall art if you are wondering what that is, when you get a tile a small one or you can use a big one and you need some paper tissue p.v.a glue and you use ribbons and you need to use rub on words like little sayings and what you do you get a picture hook and you hot glue gun it on the back. Then when you have done that you put p.v.a glue on the top of the tile and put the tussie paper on the tile and lightly push it down and press the air bubbles out then glue the tussie paper around the edges then you can decorate it with ribbon and stickers and whatever other stuff you want on it then you get a hair dryer and dry the glue then when the glue drys rub the little saying or word on that you want on it then that is pretty much it well better go.

Update

Hi everyone,
How is it? Just giving you a little update on how things are going for me, this is what I'm up to.On Tuseday I went rock climbing with my sisters and today we were going to go horse riding but it started raining really hard so that was cancelled, then we went to Spotlight to buy some fabric so I can make a top with my Gran but when we were paying for the fabric the shop had a power cut (oh no) so in the morning we have to go back to get the gear to make my top. This is what I'm doing next week.On Tuesday I'm going rock climbing on Wednesday I am going to watch a show at the Form North on Thursday we are going to the lion park with the home educators group for a tour and then on Friday we are going to the pools for swimming practice so I am fully booked (heehee) ;-) I will give you guys another update later.

World of Maths

Today Pod 9, along with Pod 7, were able to participate in a World of Maths workshop. In groups of three, students move around different activities and using their mathematical abilities, solve the various problems. There was a wide range of activities that required different skills that many students did not even realise that they had. Here are a few photos of students at work. For the Pod 9 students reading this, leave a comment explaining what activities you liked and why. Would you recommend other students attend World of Maths? Why/Why not??


Here Matthew is putting together a 3D jigsaw puzzle. How did you get on Matthew?


Hayley, Victoria and Caitlin are thinking interdependently to build bridges between islands. Not as easy as it sounds. Did your little man get eaten by a crocodile?


Jayd, Jayden M. and Julian are working out where the pirates have hidden the key and their treasure. Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr..........


Latrell, Brodie and Ngahere are navigating their way through a maze. "Where's the maths?!?" I hear you ask. You have to measure the distance between the 'posts' to work out which way to go.


Cheyenne, Jayden H. and Jessica are working out some area problems, and deciding if this 'building' meets the council bylaws. Is there going to be a demolition, or can we move the furniture in?
