Lorde | Pre Summer Learning Journey Task 1

Lorde

This week and the next we will be completing Pre Summer Learning Challenges. We have to complete the minimum of one each day. For Tuesday we had to pick one challenge out of three, and I chose the Lorde one. For this activity I had to research Lorde and write down facts about her on a google drawing. Here is my work:

My Superpower

My Superpower

This week Shoshy came to our class to talk about our "superpowers "and in other words, what we are good at. We had to make a google drawing displaying our superpower and skills that you need to have with it. I chose drawing as my superpower. Here is my Work:

Coding With Mr Abbot T4W1

Coding

This week Mr A came to our class to teach us about digital technology, and he then went on to teach us about coding. He set us up on the site "Hour Of Code" for us to play coding game called "Robot Rattle". The base of the game is to get the robot to place a cube into a box, all while controlling the robots every movement with codes.

It's quite entertaining and I recommend playing it!

Wearable Arts Project

 My Wearable Arts Project

I haven't posted much on my blog about Wearable Arts so I thought It would be a good idea to post something now. My group and I have gotten a fair way along with our project but it will still be awhile to finish it. 

If you aren't from my school you may be unaware of what this is so; every second year at Grey Main we will have a Wearable Arts show with only Y7 and Y8 students participating. We team up in groups of three and proceed to make a so called wearable art piece of clothing.

This year we had a "future of the west coast" theme, so my group decided to make a dress themed on the glaciers of the west coast and the future tourism of them. We have created a skirt and gloves so far and are still finishing others parts off. 

The Wearable Arts Show will be next week and my group is working hard to get it done.

Blogging

My Blog Posts

 Just earlier today my class all individually looked through our blog posts this year.

We all created a graph to asses the amount of blog posts that we were doing and what were on our post, be it: Slide shows, graphs, maps ect.

Through what I've seen so far of my results I've seen a lack of numeracy posts and I hope to change that soon!

I will be posting another blog post about the results soon..
