this week we made Diarama and my topic was about BLACK LIVES MATTER i pick this topic because i wanted to know why it all happend and the back story about it.
for this task We used our Ai skill Dinosaur fossils are the old bones and shapes of dinosaurs that people find buried in the ground. Sometimes, tiny pieces of these bones turn into stones called fossils. Artificial intelligence (Ai) can help scientists find and understand these fossils better. Imagine you have a digital museum app that shows pictures of dinosaur fossils. When you ask, “Tell me AI Dinosaur Fossils,” the app quickly finds pictures and facts about dinosaur fossils that are stored and analyzed using artificial intelligence, making it easy for you to learn about different dinosaurs and their fossils without searching through books or websites manually.
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.
LI: To understand the concept of visual storytelling
These Images show how our Tamaki awa hiko went in time order (ascending order), we needed to gather images and place it in time sequence. During our Tamaki awa hikoi we talked about how Smauel Marsden could of Felt or what he could see sailing down the tamaki river.
LI: To write a poem that describes a moment in time
At camp we had lots of challenge activities to try. Our challenge in with our poem was to chose our words carefully so that we painted a clear picture of what we were describing in the mind of our readers. Donyal and I have described what it was like to shoot a bow and arrow. We chose this challenge because I wanted to experience how it felt to shoot a bow and arrow.
LI: To use our smart searching skills
One of our challenegs at camp was to walk the Cossey- Massey track at Hunua. Before we entered the bush we had to make sure our shoes were disinfected. This DLO tells why we needed to do this and why we need to help prevent the spread of Kauri Dieback.
I think this is an important message to share because if you go on a walk and you see one of these trees you should be really careful.
LI: To understand that everyone has a role to play when we are working in groups
In LS2 we learn best when we learn with and from ecah other
What your responsibility as a group member is
How working in a group helped you understand more about the kuaka
Why talking to others about your learning is important
Something I enjoyed was we talked alot and we caloaberated.
LI: To identify and understand how descriptive language is used to create a clear picture of a setting in a text.
This is the image I created using the Adobe Express. I found this activity challenging because we had to use our own idea to create our image but I found it fun because we got to use our imagination to gena
Something I learnt when using prompts for AI is good for createing task for our learning.
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.
