Time Traveller’s Podcast ft Samuel Marsden

 

For Literacy we have been using our Inquiry knowledge to help us write questions that we might have asked Reverend Samuel Marsden had we had the chance to meet him and talk to him. This was a fun activity because we took on the roles of Samuel Marsden and the Time Traveller’s Podcast team. It was like we experienced actually meeting him.

We learned that when you are recording a podcast expression is everything! It makes what we have to say more engaging.

 

The Kokako

LI: To use our smart searching skills

Our Year 7/8 camp was at Kokako Lodge in Hunua. Our challenge today was to use our smart searching skills to find out about the kokako bird and create an infographic to share the facts we researched in our own words.

Something I found interesting about the kokako bird was that  the oldest known-age of a kōkako is eleven years, but they may live for twenty years or more.

Cybersmart

This week for Cybersmart I created a blackout poem.

First I made a copy of the story and chose words of my choice that made sense.

Next I made the page balck and higlited the words that weren’t needed.

Lastly I bloged.

I enjoyed making the story come together.

I did well at choosing words.

I need to improve on working faster.
