My Holiday

Link To Presentation

Today I was learning how to use google earth to make a presentation.

I enjoyed making a tour using google tours

I found it challenging to post this to my blog

My digital learning object shows my holiday on a google tour

Next time I would change some of the wording

England Team Uniform

Today (Tuesday 17th September) in cybersmart we created an outfit for our country team.
Last week we made shoes witch we had to include into our uniform. Since my country is England I had to use red and white. We had to take a picture of ourselves in an action pose them use a website to remove the background. When we put our picture without a background we put our shoes on and made a uniform to wear.

England Mascot

Today I was learning how to use polyline and create a new England mascot.

I enjoyed using my creativity to make a new mascot with other people in my group.

I found it challenging to use polyline to draw the mascot.

My digital learning object shows our progress on creating our mascot.

Next time I would change how fast I work and the end product.

My mascot is not finished yet but I hope you can get an idea of what it is going to look like.

While we are creating this we have to talk to our buddies using comments on our slide to figure out what we are doing and when we are doing it, also we use comments so we can talk even if we are at different places

Maths Quiz

Today I was learning how to use ctrl-K to switch between slides when we click something
I enjoyed being able to design questions,the storyline and design the slides
I found it challenging to think of math problems/questions/storyline
My digital learning object shows how I have created/designed a math quiz for others to do
Next time I would change the storyline or questions and the images

Maths Week Quizz

Today (Tuesday August 13) in cybersmart I learnt how to link slides using ctrl-K and how to make a quiz in google slides. We are making a maths quiz because it is maths week. For this we have to make questions then link the correct answers to the correct slide and incorrect answers to the wrong slides.

Twinkling Stars Matariki Animation

Today I was learning how to use Brush Ninja to make an animation

I enjoyed being able to make an animation on Matariki because there is a lot you can do with you creativity

I found it hard learning how to use Brush Ninja but I got there in the end

My animation shows the stars of Matariki twinkling in the night sky

Next time I would change the amount of detail so it's more detailed

This blog post shows I am a Stepping up blogger.

Famous New Zealander

Today in cyber smart we had to find facts on a famous New Zealander and put who we chose, a picture of them, three facts about them and why we chose them. I chose Murray Ball. After we did the research and everything we had to use screencastify to film a video of us saying the information. Before today I had no idea how to use screencastify and how to film but I do now.

Fridge Magnet

Today in cyber smart we made fridge magnets. To make them we had to add a picture of ourselves, we had to put our name on it and we had to make a bit.ly and a QR code. Before today I had no idea what bit.ly was but now I can see myself using it again. It was very easy. I also had no idea how to make a QR code but today I have learned how to make a QR code and a bit.ly link. It was fun and I enjoyed doing it.

Multiculturalism

Why Multiculturalism Is Important To Our Community

I believe multiculturalism is important to our community. Multiculturalism has a large effect on our society in many different ways. By being a multicultural society, it can make the community less same same.

Multiculturalism is great because it can make more people a lot more accepting. Having multiple different cultures can give other people from other cultures more opportunities. Having multiple cultures in our society brings differences all around from lifestyle to the food.

There are many differences in different cultures. Some cultures have different food or different ways of doing things. By having a multicultural community you have all sorts of things. You have different types of food or different skills. You can also learn a lot from different cultures from skills to other ways of life.

There are many different life skills you can have from having a multicultural community. Just interacting with other people is great because you can learn about other countries. Multiculturalism can help with traveling because you will probably know a thing or two about the country you're going to. Having a multicultural community can help you understand a lot more as well.

Overall having a multicultural community can benefit different people in different ways. It’s better for society to have differences. We can learn a lot from having multiple cultures. There are beneficial things from the food to the skills. Having a multicultural community is great.

A Bit About Me

Hello, welcome to my blog, I am Megan. I am a year 8 at Gisint, this is my second/last year at Gisint. I am in LH 8, Base Gaddum. Over the holiday break, I didn't do much, the big advents for me were Christmas, my grandfathers birthday and of course my birthday. Other than that I basically just did boring stuff like helping with chores and playing on the computer.

Netiquette

We were learning about netiquette which is online etiquette and how to use stuff we have made in the past
I found it easy to put everything together and remember the do's and don'ts and present them
I found it hard to find the right background and colours for my image
I really enjoyed using my creativity to make this robot character float by being on a cloud
Next time I need to think of better words for my explanations
My Blog Post shows I am a Beginner / Stepping Up / Smart Learner
