PBL

This term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about design and the big question was; How can we use a Steam approach to make a marketable product?

First we learned what STEAM stood for.
S for Science
T for Technology
E for Engineering
A for the Arts
and M for Maths
Then we were given challenges. The first to make a chair using newspaper, string and straws that was able to hold a figure made out of multi-link blocks.
Then; make a table that was able to balance Mn Ms for the team. We were much better at the second challenge because we worked together better and we made it stronger buy putting the straws in a triangle.
In Literacy we learned to write up science experiments and to write a technology report using the design process of ask, imagine, plan, create, improve and share.

Our next step was to form teams and ask ourselves the big question again.
How can we use a Steam approach to make a marketable product? Our aim was to create enough products or experiences and sell it to raise money for charity.

My team made 3D bubbles and we sold them for 50c each wand and it came with a recipe to make a bubble mixtures




My highlight from this PBL was that we sold some bubble wands and we made some money. Also that we had fun making the bubble wands and trying to make them.

Next time I would make something else because we didn't sell much and for a new challenge. Also  work better as a team buy all putting our ideas together to make something better.

PBL

This term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about cultural stories and the big question was;
What is the significance in the 21st Century of our Cultural stories?

First we brainstormed what culture is and came up with lots of ideas. Culture is Where you are from, the food you eat, story's and more.
Then we thought about our own culture and talked to our parents about our traditions and heritage. I wrote a post about my family and things we like to do.
In Literacy we read and discussed myths and legends from around the world then we concentrated on Maori legends. I read, how Maui slowed the sun and Maui and the giant fish I retold the legend of A wise wizard and some curious cats in my own words.

We made a performance about the story Battle of the Mountains. Some students wrote the script, some students took on the job of making all the artwork, some worked hard on organizing the music and others took on the role of bringing the story alive with dance and drama. Do you like drama?

Reflection:
For our production I contributed by helping with being an actress.                   

I think the show might impact on others by teaching them Maori legends.

What I learned about working with others was that teamwork is better than working alone.

Blog post about my culture.

Do you open one present on Christmas Eve? Well I know I do.

Did you know that I’m a kiwi and as a kiwi we have lots of traditions. One of them is Christmas did you know it's summer at Christmas time in New Zealand. If your wondering What is New Zealand's culture? Well New Zealand has a very unique culture. The culture of its Maori people affects the language also the arts. We love all of our outdoor sports. So that’s what our culture is. Also at my house most Fridays we have oven fry's there just frozen chips that are cooked up. At Christmas time we go to my Grandmas for lunch or dinner. Also I go to harmony church on every Sunday.

Marshmallow woman and the candyfloss kitten saves the day!!!!

One day there were two ordinary people well I wouldn't say ordinary I would say peculiar people one was called marshmallow woman and the other was called candy floss kitten and that’s what they were actually made of. They were best friends They would eat together sleep together and even drink together they more like sisters. But in changes. The time has come to fight the bad guys.

die die and that is how they lived.

my blog post

I did technology challenges at my school like stacking cups with  a band with string on it in a team of 5. The next challenge was to have spaghetti and marshmallows and make a big tower. After that we made a stretcher to hold a pile of books with a cup of water on it and we had to go fast with out it spilling for about 2 metres. The last challenge was a paper chain linked with loops together and we had to try
to make it the longest and that is what I did for my technology challenge.

              Kitten

 Hi I am chanelle and my favorite animal in the word is a cat. They are so cute to me I would do so much for another  cat because they are cute and adorable. When I see a cat that is not cute I still love them. I have a cat of my own it is a girl she is one and all mine. My mum had a cat but it died awhile ago. I got sad and got over it but my mum got even more sad.

I have TY toys I have 3 or 4 of them are cats 2 little cats and one big one. They are are cute and adorable and my cats' eyes are so stunning.

I have a soft blue blanket and my kitten loves it when I have gone to sleep she cades me when I am asleep because of my blanket. In my dreams I dream about my cat in the dreams she saves the day. she is important  to me in my life and she is 2 years old I thought she was one but she is two and that was about 10 days ago. My cat is a tabby cat my mum said she was my cat to have and feed so I have to miss my movie to let her out. Do you know her full name? no? I will tell you, it is kittycat dash Anngow and her nickname is princess dash. The thing I do not like about her is that she tries to bite and stace when I pick her up. When she is on my bed and my dad comes she will run away and when mom comes she stays. When I am watching my program h2O my kitten looks at the TV like she is watching it. I love her because it's who she  is no one can replace her.  
Do you love cats?  

               

Be kind

      🐈 Be kind🐕

To be kind you help others if they are hurt all you have to do is;

Help them up and be friendly. If there sad say something nice and cheer them up.
When you are alone others will help you so everyone is happy.
When they're having an argument just help them sort it out.
If you want to make a friend just be kind. Respect others and they will respect you back.
Don't steal others property because it is not nice. Don't swear about other people it is mean.

Art gallery

Hi and welcome back, today I will tell you about the Art Gallery. I hope you like it. First we looked at a lot of paintings and I really liked them they were great,  I would also like to give a shout out to Nikki because she showed us around. 
We saw a sick fake, talking guy and also we saw a seesaw  half on one side of the wall and half on an other side.
Next we saw Candy, but the sign said do not touch, so sad. You will not believe this but the lights were tables and chairs, cool. This was cool, we saw a hand that was a person with eyes. The best part of they day was that made a paper Tree House it was so fun.

This is my family treasure that I would like to show you it's my mums tea cup set that she got from her mother. I will get it when I am a teenager because it is very delicate. If you drop it, it will smash into pieces.
