Maths Fun - Junior Playground Model

Image
Hey there! Today I made a model of the junior playground using Tinkercad. What's Tinkercad? It's explained in the screencastify. You don't need to pay for it, you just need to sign up, for free. But you must have an invite code to get approved and build a model. Here is some pictures and the screencastify. Feel free to comment and some questions.

Ako Hiko Student Led Toolkits

Image
Hey there, everyone. On the Thursday of 17th of August, I went to New Windsor School who were hosting the toolkits. The toolkits are a variety of subjects the person wanted to learn. They choose the toolkits in two sessions in a survey before the time. They must choose ONE in the two rows. They get a tag for what they chose in both sessions. We still had breaks which are Morning Tea and lunch. Some people present toolkits, telling people what the subject is and how to use it. The sessions are in a location, then in the second session it changes its original. Also in the survey you can't choose the same toolkit in both rows. My toolkits I chose to learn were... 'Stop Motion Animation' and 'Google Drawings / Google Sites'. The challenge was it was really time consuming and I couldn't really finish it. They were just files I will not need. Since I learned to make a Google Site, I could make a site of my learning, mountain inquiry. Two challenges also popped up

Ako Hiko Blog Commenting - Cybersmart Activity

Hello there, everyone, young and old. On the Thursday of 10th August, some of the syndicate had a session of cyber smart. The teacher in cyber smart is Gerhard, he comes from the Ako Hiko Trust if you don't know. What Gerhard was teaching the syndicate what sentences start off well with positive, thoughtful and helpful comments in a Padlet. If you don't know what's a Padlet, it's a good one to share your ideas. Don't want to waste any more time, so here it is.  Reflection : Overall comments should have lots of effort put into it, so the author won't have to reply back in the way you did or delete it. The Padlet made me think of other sentences starters. The project was easy for the syndicate. Blog you later.
