SKEETER Sign Language

  

Kia Ora Bloggers! 

How are you? Happy NZSL week! In celebration of it, we have been using this super fun website called sign ninja where you can learn to sign NZSL. Did you know that NZSL is one of New Zealand's three national languages? 

There was a lot of stuff to learn on there, but sadly I had to share with Zoe Cowles because my device is too old to use the site.

Here's my video of me signing my name.

The Delightful Dream Dilemma. (Dreams Science Report)

In Literacy we've been doing a lot of science.

After a few weeks of doing science experiments our teacher Mr G set up, we were told to organise and do our own experiments. Me and Felix decided to do one about 'Are fingerprints inherited?' but it ended up being too complicated to do and we couldn't finish it in time, so Mr G said everyone that couldn't finish their experiments had to make scientific reports on some set topics, or on our own topics, which was harder.

I did mine on dreams and dreaming, here it is!

Don't feed ducks bread!

Heya Bloggers!

At school we've had a few ducks around the field, and people have been feeding them a lot of bread, (which has caused them to poop everywhere) so in the afternoon we were told to either 

a. Go play some semi-chaotic sport outside

b. Follow a long and complicated drawing tutorial

c. Make a slideshow or video about why you shouldn't feed ducks bread

I chose c.

Here's the animation I made on flipanim! (Using my trackpad only, which was very painful)

Here's the link if it doesn't load! vvv

Kia Ora Bloggers!

On Wednesdays we've been doing coding and learning to read and write python on a website called Codesters.

We were challenged to make a PSA (Public Service Announcement) about a problem of our choosing, and I chose bullying. We can't link, embed or share our projects to anyone other than the people in our classroom, though.

Do you understand any of the lines in the Python? What would you make a PSA on?

That's all for today, folks! Cya next time?

Prim and Proper Paper Planes

Kia Ora bloggers!

In Literacy we have been doing various Science Experiments.

For this test we had to do something involving Flight, and mainly Paper Planes. 

Me and Olivia I decided we'd do the question; "Which model of paper air-plane allows it to travel the most distance?"

We used five planes (Two of which were our own original models)  

How do you make your paper planes? Have a nice day!

In my classroom you will learn about:

Samoa as a country

MY CLASSROOM

Samoan Greetings (With Herb and Toastie!)

Talofa bloggers!

In class we've been learning some basic Samoan greetings, and were challenged to make an animation explaining the greetings. (With translation of course!)

---

I used Scratch and drew all the sprites and backgrounds with my mouse-pad! I used the character I always use for Scratch (Their name is Herb) and a new character I made called Toastie.

The embed link wouldn't work so I added a link under the image :)

 

Here's the link to my project (dur dur durh durr)

Have you ever used Scratch? What did you make?

Cya!
