The Lion King - Free Writing Frenzy 26.07.19

On Thursday my class Te Manga and Te Tinana went to the Te Ahu cinema to watch the lion king.

First the baboon Rafiki held Simba the new born lion on the pride rock.And all of the other animals gathered on the grass.

Then Scar started to get jealous that Mufasa was king and because he wanted to be the king instead.So to get revenge on Mufasa he killed Mufasa and blamed it on Simba and told him to run away far far away from home.And got the bad hyenas to kill Simba too and so he could be king.

When we  got there our teacher let us grab something small to eat because the movie was two hours and we probably would get hungry.Then we lined up nicely so we could go inside.

When we got inside we sat down until Whaea Deb got us organised to get our popcorn and drinks. We were excited for the movie to begin.

This term we have been learning about the Longfin Eel.

I  have created 3 different digital learning objects (DLO) to share my learning on this topic.

The first is a poster that I created in my topic book about the challenges to the long fin eel. Whaea Deb took a photo of my poster.

I created the longfin eel life cycle using google drawing.

Lastly I shared interesting facts about the longfin eel using a google doc.

Rarangi Matahiko-Waitangi Writing

Last Tuesday our class went to Waitangi we had to get to school early so we did not miss the bus but lucky I got to school pretty early!We went with Whaea Deb, Yvette and Jayda too.

When we arrived at Waitangi first Whaea Kerry and Whaea Monika greeted us inside and  went straight upstairs and we were ready to learn more about teleology!There was an art gallery it had photos from Antatica. When I entered the room I saw blue,red and green qwishins I felt happy and really excited.

Next a special geast came her name was Catlun. She showed us some special rocks from the Waitangi musium and she told us some imformation about the rocks.One of the facts where that they used to use the rocks for carving they where normaly just used for tools they also felt super smoth.Then we moved on to unpluged acttiveities , for the unpluged acttiveites we had to sort the cards 1 to 50 it was sooo difficult and cunfuesing!

After that we went on scratch to put our avartar on our backgrounds that we made on paint 3d. 

Eventually we zoomed to the mat and we got givin a smart phone and then they said find a partner because we where going to have a kahoot,my partner was Cleo. I was so suprised because I love kahoots I thort one of the ansers where green screens have to be green but they dont need to.A few minuits later we got told we had to pack our bags.We also went for a little walk and went to the to see the hundreds of eels they had  by the cafe when we where finished looking at the eels we went to the bus and then we sadly hopped on the bus and traveld back home.
