The New Zealand Flag

For two weeks for our before school work (what is work we do in the mornings) we had to make a slide show talking about the New Zealand flag. We could do this slide show in groups or by our self. The slide show had to have pictures and not allowed over three minutes long. It also had to be inserting so the audience does not get board. I loved does the slide show because it turned out great.

Digi Awards

For 4 weeks the whole Senior Syndicate has been doing Digi Awards. What Digi Awards is it is mainly a competition between lots of schools and you get the choice of movie making, ripple effect, music video or digital art. I was in a group with Sophie and Aroha who i enjoyed working with! After we got into a group we got handed a script from the teacher and what we had to draw was a picture of what we would do for our movie in the 6 boxes also write what we would say for our voice over. We had to do a voice over because we were not allowed in our movie but we had to film it. So when we got up to filming we had to get some people from class that wanted to star in the movie. I loved doing Digi Awards because it was so much fun!

Something I learnt is you have to move the camera slowly when you are videoing.

Digital Dig

                                                        Digital Dig
This week and a bit of last week room 5&6 have been making a slide show for digital dig. Digital dig is like some actives that you have to try complete. Some of them is like key board shortcuts what you try and find how to do them and learn at the same time. Most of it is to do with chrome and some of it you can do on a laptop. So I hope you like my presentation that I have done.

Hero Rap/Poem

Hero Rap/Poem Last week the class did a hero rap/poem. First we wrote all the words off the board into our books. Then we had to get two words that rhymed and then we got called up to the teacher and she help us do our poem. This is my poem underneath. 

  

An everyday hero is just an ordinary person who is selfless.

Everyday heroes also have sweetness.

Everyday heroes could be someone special to you in your family.

An everyday hero can be someone who you trust happily.

If your everyday hero is someone in your family they give you clothing.

They also are loving.

Your everyday hero could be someone who keeps you safe.

They can also have faith.

Winter Cinquain Poem

Last week the class did a Cinquain poem. What we had to do was chose one word for our top one then chose two words, then three, then four and finally one! After that one of the teachers checked it and we put pictures on it about the words we have on the poem. And under this is my poem!

This is my Poem.

New Zealand Flag Debate

Last term we learnt about the New Zealand flag debate. I learnt lots of things about the New Zealand flag debate like it would cost the country $26,000,000 to change the flag. 52% of people don't want the flag changed and a reason why to not change it is because it represent World War 1 & 2. The other half of people do want to change the flag and here is another reason but...it is a reason to change the flag. Some people thinks that the Australia flag is similar to New Zealand's flag but Australia has 6 stars and New Zealand has 5. I loved learning about the New Zealand flag debate it was so much fun!

This is my final design.
