M-bots are the coolest robots ever. Our team the Creative CoderZ won the search for the next tech girl superhero competition. Our prize was 500 dollars. We decided to spend our 500 dollars On these robots called M bots. M bots can move around and do a lot of different movements it can avoid obstacles and follow a black line etc. We got a pink m-bot and a blue m bot. they are called Hero and Buddy. The blue one is called Buddy and the pink one is called Hero.

What would we do better next time?

Working together more, and understanding each other more deeply

Make sure that everyone gets a fair turn

What have we learned about the m-bots?

We have learned how to code the robot

We have learned how to get the robot to sense an object if it's in front of it

We have learned how to put wires together

Some of us learned how to screw screws in with a screwdriver

We have learned how to work together to code and make the robots

We have had a lot of up and downs but we have worked them out and the robots are amazing!!!!! I think we made a good and informed decision.

Information Report Plan

This term Violet and I decided we wanted to build our writing skills by attempting to publish an information report about frogs/toads. We went to a workshop to learn more about how to structure a good information report plan. After we had learned about that we started organizing our plan so when we start our real writing we will know where all the information on one topic is easily. We tried to make the plan as detailed as possible so our information report would have a lot of detail and a lot of important information as well. We haven't quite finished yet and still need to do a little more research but here is the link anyway.

Anzac Art

This term for our W.I.T we had to make an art piece that told a story about Gallipoli. I painted this artwork with Ella and Aimee. We put 1914 at the top because that was the year the war started.

Passion Project

I made an explain everything to explain about my Passion Project.

Graffiti Art

This term for art I have been learning the skills you use in graffiti. First we targeted the basic skills and then tried to create our own piece of graffiti. This was my first try.

After my first try I wanted to go a little bit deeper.By about the end of week 4 the teachers wanted a name plate so I watched a video and had a look at other peoples. I learned quite a bit from just taking a look at different pieces of art! I learned about colours and shapes and lots of other things that help in art. 

Finally after rubbing out again and again and again I finished it. I was pleased with my final product and here it is.

Learning Chalenge

Learning challenge!

“Hi” at the moment Freya, Eva, Jaylin and Sage have been doing a task called our learning challenge when you get to chose a task to work on for about seven weeks.

What have we been learning about???

would put things on that represented something to do with your culture like on Freya's she had candles around her head.

Now let's have a look at Eva's dress firstFreya, Jaylin and Eva have agreed that we would make costumes that represent our culture Freya chose to learn about sweden and Jaylin chose to learn about aotearoa and Eva chose to learn about tongan. So we all worked together to finish our costumes. When we were making our dresses we we are going to start looking at the bottom of the dress.she has put the blue sea with fish and turtles  and caves which you can go hiking and swim with dolphins and whales like these photos right

here.⬇️3

here are some photos of the fish and turtles right here⬇️

If you want to see more click on this link and watch a video!

Tongan sea creatures

but now let's look at the top of the dress as you can see Eva has painted some flowers well The national flower of Tonga is the Red-blossomed Heilala and it is celebrated with a festival of the same name, on the fourth of July. there are also the word tongan in the middle of the dress and the colours are white and red Eva chose those two colours because they are the colours of the flag. The sun represents light and life.

.Now let's talk about sages dress!

This dress has a resemblance of the dresses the women or children wore when they were crossing the plains. The under dress usually had a sort of pattern which in this case is flowers. The apron was just part of the dress I guess because they must have had to do a lot of cooking. I decided to put an American flag with an

eagle because the Utah flag has an eagle with the American flag draped over it.

Let's look at Freya's dress now She has made her background of her dress blue because in Sweden the flag is blue and yellow like this photo⬇️

Freya also wore a scarf that is yellow like the flag to. Freya had Ribbon wrapped around her waist like a belt she also had a headband with candles they both represent the same thing, i'll tell you now so there was a girl named lucia she looked a bit like this.

Saint Lucia's tradition in Sweden, celebrated every Dec. 13, involves wearing a crown

Press this link then press these words, christmas in sweden!

And it will tell you all about it.

Now let's get this story finished she walked around and lit sweden up by teaching everybody how to make fire, so that’s the story of lucia.

Freya also had some snowflakes on her arm and pearls which represents the snow in sweden because when its winter its snows a lot!!!! And i forgot that i had some blue exactly the same colour as on the flag i shood you and it hanged down. Freya has finished with the explaining.

This was by Freya, Eva, Sage, and Jaylin!!!!!!

Making a Quality Comments

Tip 1:  compliments. Compliments always makes the student feel good about their post. For example your friend wrote something about a rain storm you could say that would have been hard to persist in that kind of rain.

Tip 2: information. Information is always good to add in a comment. For example say someone wrote about riding on a horse and you have had a lot of experience you could tell them a few facts that you know.

Tip 3: Connections. Making connections is another important Part of making a quality comment. To make connections you tell a story that has happened to you that connects to the story the person told.

Tip 4: questions. You should always put a question at the end of a comment. A good question should always be relevant to the story. So if the story is about an elephant don't ask a question about their dog!

Tip 5: Proof Read. Proof Read means to re-read the comment you have created. Make shore there isn't any spelling mistakes. or missed out words.

Candy Balloons

If I owned a shop I would want to own a candy shop so I could play with the kids that came to buy some candy then I would have lots of friends. I built a playground and whenever my friends came over we played on it.

I got out a sign that I had been waiting to get out for weeks. I hadn't taken it out before because right when I was about to get it out, one of my best friends had knocked on the door. I got out my hammer and nails…

and walked to the door. Just then my friend walked past. She said she was just running to the store to buy some groceries, then she was planning to come and help me with what I was doing.

Each day I bought pink balloons and helium machines full of helium. I got out my newest candy inventions, ones that weren't even on sale yet. I tested them very carefully and licked my lips. They were so good. Right then someone knocked on the door. It was my friend. She was back from the store and was ready to help. We put the candy into the balloons and soon it was all done. Soon my best friend was ready to leave and was about to walk out the door when…

Knock,knock. Someone was at the door. It was one of my other friends and she was about to have a birthday party. She needed some treats to share. So I said that I had just finished some Candy Balloons. I said bye to my customers and shut the door. Another day had finished.

This is my quick write. The topic was on if you owned a shop what kind and why?

Food bank

Yesterday we went on trucks through Taranaki to pick up food for the food bank.We started at the TSB stadium. People all over Taranaki were doing it. There were heaps of big trucks there and I got  to ride on one. Some of the other people on our truck got out to collect the food that people brought out. Then they would give to us so we could organised it into boxes. There was a police car in front of us with its sierin on so people would know to bring out the food. At the end we had a lot of food.
