My Sea Life

Te Ngahere has been learning how to use different tools in Google drawing and different ways to use them to make more creative DLO’s. The purpose of this challenge was to help us use google drawing confidently and efficiently to create our own images and graphics. What we did on this challenge was to try and make animals that are related to the ocean using shapes and arrows I made lots of things like Jellyfish, fish, kina a stingray and my most favorite one Patrick. I will use this to make better blog post’s in the future. The thing that I found easy about doing my DLO was trying to think about the things I could make using shapes and arrows and the thing I found hard was to make the thing I wanted to make because it was very noise in the classroom.

Have you ever made anything using shapes and arrows?

Technology

 May 5th Tuesday the year sevens and eights went to Technology. The year 8’s did wood works in Mr Es class and the year 7’s were working with Whaea Dot next door they were going to be cooking. Before we did anything Mr E was seeing how well we knew the rules in the workshop one of the rules were whenever you use one of the power tool’s always wear gloves and glasses. When we finished answering the rules we were allowed to try out  the power tools and other tools. We had fun using the power tools I made a little hand held knife. When it was morning tea we all played touch and after touch we went back to class and we had to have a idea on what we were going to make, Mr E said lets make a waka we all agreed to that idea. So Mr E showed a example on how to make the waka. The waka was made out of wood we only started a little bit of the waka but we will continue with it next week.

Have you gone to technology before?

Direction failure

 In Te Ngahere our teachers wanted us to see how well we listen. So our teachers gave us a piece of paper with instructions. The first instruction was to read everything carefully before doing anything. There were 23 instructions and I decided to to finish the test fast because there was only a 4 minute timer. When the 4 minute timer was up we had to stop and come to the mat when we came down to the mat our teacher was a asking us questions like did you follow the instructions properly? After the teacher said a few other questions then the teacher said in front of the hole class the teacher said we all failed because we didn't listen to the instructions properly the question was read everything carefully before doing anything the words I didn't listen to were read everything carefully before doing anything. I found it difficult to work with a 4 minute timer.

Have you failed something miserable before?
