Wow so cool! 

On thursday 20th of May, 22 student from Seniors in Waikowhai Primary went to Owairaka School for the Student Led Toolkits. 6 student from our school presented on how to uses some website like Google maps, Music Lap and more. The first thing we did when everyone got there is have an introduction. Next everyone went to the their first lesson on how to uses an app.

The first place I went to was to room 25 where I learn how to use Word Art. The presenter Justus and Kapiri. They should everyone how to use Word Art. Here a picture of my Word Art:  

  Here is the link to a google document on how to use Word Art

 

For the Second Session I went to room 23 where I was learning how to use Animation with Google slides the prestern were  Irie, Arian and Nikile. They showed everyone on how to do Animation with Google slides. The first thing you need to do is make a slide  with a background and choose the a character. Next move the character bit by bit and you can duplicate a slide too. Here an Animation of mine so far.

For the last sesion I went to room 7 to have some fun with Incredibox where I could have fun with Music. So all you have to do is and drag the picture to the people so they have something to wear.  Now you can listen to your beats. 

After that everyone went into the hall, listen to two people for Fusion interns talk about how they got into their job. Then it was time to  leave. Overall I thought that it was a brilliant day.  Have you ever been to toolkits?

Hope you had fun reading this blog post. Bye bloggers and blog you later. 😃 

Wellbeing with Miss McGrath 🙂

 Hola blogger's 

Fortune teller / chatterbox origami, Complement circle, Musical gratitude game, FUN!  FUN! FUN!    

This morning 17th of May, the year 5 ( which  counts me too )  were having the morning block and middle block with Miss McGrath because the year 6's are on an exhibition with the teacher's. 

The first thing we ( the year 5's )  did was have a talk about the wellbeing survey. Which wasn't very fun. Next we did a game called  Musical gratitude. We needed  to walk around and when the music stops we need to go to the closest person and say what we were grateful for. we did it 3 times. 

Then we moved on to making Fortune teller /chatterbox  (origami). We made a little origami that you can play with and we needed to tell what we do when people bully others. What we wrote inside was 3 different things, what we do when  people bully us, a compliment to others and something to make us happy when were upset. I chose to do a compliment to others.  Here are some pictures of the fortune teller: 

          

So the first thing we did to make the Fortune teller / chatterbox  was get a square piece of paper. Next you need  to fold the the paper diagonally 90 degrees ( which is a quarter way )  and fold it diagonally. Now we fold it in the middle and turn it 90 degrees and fold down the middle again.  Soon  you will see your square divided into the 8 part. fold each corner to the centre.  Now turn it over and do it again. Turn it up one more time and open the 4 top square with your fingers and push. And now you will have your origami done. You just need to write something in and add colour.  Here are some pictures of how to make a chatterbox:

        

Finally we did the compliment circle where  you have to give a compliment to others and someone is together compliment do you. I think it's great to give a compliment to everyone. You needed to sit in a circle you need to give a compliment to someone but before you do that someone needs to give a compliment to you. It's great to give a compliment to everyone.

Anyways overall I think that it was a morning. Have you ever made a chatterbox / fortune teller?

The Seniors get to go in the main pool and the middles get to go in the Nan's pool it wasn't all ways this why but we had to because of lockdown.
