Food Technology

 L.I: To follow instructions to make sushi.

This week we had our last Tech session for 2020, and we made sushi for our last tech session. The ingredients were Rice, Nori Sheets, Chicken, Yellow Capsicum, Sweet Chilli Sauce, and Mayo. first, we had to shred the chicken, then add Sweet Chilli Sauce, along with the Mayo. This keeps the chicken moist. Next we banged the rice to make it soft, then got our Nori sheet, and put it onto the sushi wooden roller. Next, we put the rice onto the Nori sheet, using water on our hands, so the rice doesn't stick to your hands. You had to fill up 2/3 of the Nori sheet with rice. Then after that, we put the chicken at the end of the rice on the Nori. And then you roll it up using the wooden roller to help make a perfect circle. Lastly you had to cut that roll up into 8 pieces. This session was amazing because I got to make some yummy food.

Art Colouring Book

 L.I: To experiment with colours.

This Morning we started the day with one of this years Summer Learning Journey activities. The purpose of this task was to experiment with different colours from the original painting palette by using pop colours. This allowed us to recolour famous paintings or images of landmarks around the world. The painting that I chose to repaint with my own colours was a woman combing her hair. This painting was made by Goyō Hashiguchi. I enjoyed this activity because I got to be creative.

Provocation: Should masks be compulsory

LI: To identify and consider the two perspectives of this provocation to help me form an opinion

 

This week for Reading we were learning about Provocations. A Provocation is an action or phrase that triggers strong emotions. Our provocation was "Should masks be compulsory in Auckland public transport?". In our DLO (Digital Learning Object) we had to say if we agree or not with the provocation, and then share our opinion. My opinion is that I think we should have a free choice on rather or not we want to wear masks. Some people have not too good health and would have trouble breathing.

Charge of the light brigade

L.I: To have a clear understanding of what happened in the Crimean war.

This week for reading we were learning about the famous war that happened in crimean. This DLO represents the story behind the war and facts about it. We had to work in groups of 3 which then could make us feel more confident when making this and give feedback to each other. The thing that we really liked about this task is how we got to find out interesting things about the war and the people in it. 600 men were in the war and less than 200 people survived. This DLO can give other people a clear picture on what happened, where it happened and more.

Weight Challenge

 

L.I: To create a DLO about any of the Weighty Maths Challenges.

This week we were put into groups for math in these groups we made up names that  represent maths or includes maths names, our name that we chose for our group was The multiplying 7’s because we had seven people in our group and we were supposed to multiply our questions we were given. In the multiplying 7’s were Victoria our leader Giovanni, Makaili, Afa, Ong, Lily and I. We put all of our opinions together to come with different solutions to solve our challenges and we would have to ask questions if we didn't understand the question or ask for help because no one should have sat in silence because we are a team and we are all  supposed participate so we all can have friendship even though we haven't worked together but we did make a big difference and we worked as a good team whether we liked  working together or not. Something that I enjoyed about this activity was that I got to work with people I haven't worked with a lot. 

Lowest common multiple

   

L.I: Is to find the lowest common multiple

This week for maths we were learning how to find the lowest common multiple. We first learnt by doing 1 digit by 1 digit and started moving on to even harder questions. This activity was fun because we got to work in a group. The people in my group were Matthew, Giovanni and Ong. The lowest common multiple is when the 2 numbers have the same multiple, that is the lowest. For an example 8 and 6, we know that 8 x 3 and 6 x 4 equals 24 and nothing is lower than 24. To find the lowest common multiple, the easiest way to do so, is to multiply both numbers. If we were to find the lowest common multiple of 4 and 5. We multiply both numbers, which makes 20. There are no lower common multiples than 20. This is a strategy we all found out, from doing the first 3 questions.

Law of Inertia

L.I: To create a DLO that explains the Law of Inertia.

This week for Reading we have created a collaborative DLO explaining what the law of inertia is. Who creator of the law of inertia was Issac Newton. Isaac Newton was born january the 4th 1643, he died on the  31st march 1727. There are three laws of Inertia if an object stays in rest or stays at a constant speed this motion will keep on going until unless some type of pull of force stops the object or moves it. We did this in groups I was with Leroy, Fau, Ellenora and Matthew.
