Tsunami play with Holly, Amelia, Lucy and I

 Hello Bloggers!

For literacy this week we have had half an hour to do some freewriting each morning and Holly, Lucy, Amelia and I are working on a play together. It is just a draft so it is not finished yet.

This is our draft. Child 1 is Amelia, Child 2 is Lucy, Tsunami 1 is Amelia, Tsunami 2 is Amelia, Tsunami 3 is Amelia, and I am the narrator.

I think this is a pretty good draft for us as I have never written a play before.

Do you have any feedback for me? I will take them and use your feedback to make it better.

Ka Kite see you next time! 

Who is your favourite Korimako teacher? 🎓

Hello bloggers, 

A couple of days ago in maths we were told to think of a question like  favourite colour, favourite food, sport or something like that. My question was who is your favourite Korimako teacher. (As you have probably already figured out.) Then make a google form about it and then send it out to all the people in Korimako. And finally once we had got all the answers we had to put them into a graph.

This is my form if you want to fill it out you can

Did you fill it out?

If you did who did you pick?

Do you have any feedback to me for my form?

Ka Kite see you next time!

My Pepeha

Kia Ora bloggers 

Today for Te Reo we made a digital copy of our pepeha that we started yesterday.

We were given a lot of links and sources that we could use to make a digital copy of our pepeha.

They were Pepeha.nz, Google slides, Scratch, Gamefroot, Google Tour Builder, Screencastify, Book Creator, Puzzle Maker and there was Flipgrid aswell but we couldn't use it because the teachers hadn't set it up yet. I used Pepeha.nz.

This is my Pepeha. This is a link to Maori Dictionary so you will understand what it means.

Do you know what a pepeha is?

If you do great! If you don't catch up on your Maori culture. No just kidding, a pepeha is when you introduce yourself to someone in Maori.

First you start off with your Mountain/Maunga. My mountain was Mt Hutt because my family go skiing there every winter.

Next you do a river/awa near you or that you relate to.My river was the Rapaki river because it flows off Mt Hutt.

An then you do your tribe/iwi. (What country you belong to because back then you belonged to the land not the land belonged to you.) My tribe is Aeoteroea (New Zealand) because I have lived here my whole life.

Next you introduce your family. Alun (Dad), Carolyn (Mum) and Zoe (sister) are my family. Well and my dog Mika but I didn't add her in because she is not a person.

My dog Mika

Then you introduce yourself because the people from other tribes might be able to link you to people they know by you telling them your last name but I didn't add that in here because of CYBERSAFTEY. 

My name is Izzy so I put in Izzy because Ko Izzy toku ingua (My name is Izzy)  

Well now you know that may be able to make your own pepeha!

While you go and make your pepeha I will be writing my next post for you to read!

Noho iho rā see you next time!

  

Google Docs Scavenger Hunt 🙂

 Welcome back Bloggers!

Today is the second day of school since the 6 week holidays and we have been given the task of a Google Docs scavenger hunt. You must be wondering what that is so I will tell you.

A Google Docs scavenger hunt is when you complete a series of questions that remind your mind where and what the Google Doc tools are. 

This is my completed scavenger hunt.

Do you know all the answsers to the questions? Are you sure?

Well if you're sure...

It took me a while because my mind is used to the holidays. The good thing is that I got 9/10!

The one I got wrong was #5 .I did 5 collums and 3 rows instead of 3 collums and 5 rows.

Everything else I got right! 🤗

Why don't you go through it and see if you can do it and get all the answers right? 

While you do that I'll be writing my next post for you to read.

See you next time!

Book Week dress up day.

 Kia Ora bloggers welcome back to my blog!

This week it has been Book Week when we focus on books.

Yesterday we had to dress up as our favrouite book character. I dressed up as Redd from Seeing Redd. It is the real story of Alice in Wonderland. There is a series of book in the Seeing Redd trilogy. The 1st book is called The Looking Glass Wars, The 2nd book is Seeing Redd and the 3rd book is Arch enemy.

I was that lady on the cover.  In the middle of litracy we had a parade to show off our costumes. There were lots of different costumes. We has a giant Kangaroo as our Deputy Principal in the morning, 2 Artimus Fouls, my best friend Amelia was Arwen from Lord of the Rings. We also had a competition on who had the best cosutme. 

I looked like this:

The placings in my hub was

1st place:  Levi and Shannon who were Willy Wonka and an Oompa-Loompa. 

2nd place: Amelia as I already said was Arwen.

3rd place:  Honey was Katniss Everdeen

If you had to dress as a character from a book who would you dress as?

Ka Kite see you next time!

Hello Bloggers welcome back to my blog!
I haven't had the time to do a Blog Post for a while because I've been away in Methven skiing.

Inquiry this term we have been focusing on our relationship with Computers. Can we be creators not just users?

I was with Miss Roberts and Miss Smith we foccused on 3D printing.
Our challenge was to make something that the community needed, design it on paper, then once the teacher had approoved we logged into Tinkercad and designed it on there.
Our design


Our teams had to be made of A Year 6 (Molly) A Year 5 (Me) A Boy (Scott) and a Girl (Holly)
 What do you think we could add?

What I am Planning to do during the holidays.

Hmmmmmmmmm...

What should I do in the holidays?

Oh hi Bloggers didn't see you there!



What do you think that I should do in the holidays?



Ok so first on Saturday night I am hoping that I could go to my friend Holly's house for a sleepover. We made a giant den over her bed that has disco lights on the inside and all sorts of fluffy things like Duvets, Pillows, Sheets and a kitten.
Wait what, KITTENS! Oh Yes now I remember Holly does have a cat a hyperallergenic one too!

Before I say anything else I think I should tell you WHY I'm having a holiday (well actually the whole school is but still:)
I am having a holiday because it is the end of 12 weeks of learning and we all need a break including the teachers. We get two weeks of freeness before we have to go back to learning. 

TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL HOLIDAYS!!!
I am pretty exitied. 

Ok now ON WITH THE EXPLAINING!

Then after the Sleepover we are going to Methven to do some Skiing (I know how to Ski) and some smowboarding (I know how to Snowboard too!) and we are thinking of going down to visit Jackie and Jase from she Ski shop.
We might be staying in Methven for the whole holidays which I am a bit sad about cos then I can't have any more sleepovers:(
BUT Mum and Dad might change their minds and we might only stay in Methven for 1 week of the holidays:)
I will give you an update when I know the awnser myself!


We might be doing a bit of tennis and maybe just maybe go down to Ashburton swimming pool for a bit of a splash around.

What do you think you will end up doing in the holidays?
Are you going anywhere?
Do you know how to ski?
Do you know how to Snowboard?

Let me know!

Keep returning to my blog so I can tell you ALL about our sleepover tomorrow morning!

See Ya!
