Summer Learning Journey l Scavenger Hunt

Recently we started the Summer Learning Journey's first task, this task was a scavenger hunt.

The Summer Learning Journey new theme and name is "Celebrating Summer", Summer Learning Journey can help create more knowledge. 

First, we gathered into our inquiry groups, and waited until we can start the scavenger hunt. While we waited we watched the video from Nanogirl's lab.

Later we started the scavenger hunt, we had to find different objects on the list and record/take a photo of them.

I enjoyed doing this acitvity, but I think next time I should be looking at different places instead of only one workspace.

Presenting l Inquiry

My group and I have presented our script.

We all practised our lines and script before we present it.

Then we said out script, with the script we needed the presentation open, and we need to remember the words that we say.

Later, we got our feedback, we got feedback on what was good, and the things that does not make senses and what we need to work on more.

My group and I did not get the contract eventually, but the feedback my group and I got was that if the hexagon rolls over it can hurt you because, we are using stainless steel as one of our materials. The other feedback I got was that I could use another word instead of discovering, I think next time I should memorize my lines.

Reading Strategies l Cloth Activity

There are many reading comprehension strategies that can help understanding when reading, e.g. making connections, predicting, inferring, summarising, prior knowledge.

Reading strategies that can be used before reading are, inferring, and prior knowledge, inferring is when you find out what happens next using all the proof you have already.

Reading strategies that can be used while reading are predicting, and visualising, visualising is when you create a picture in your mind about what happened.

Reading strategies that can be used after reading are questioning, and summarising, summarising is when you give the main points and information from what happened in the book.

There are many reading strategies that can be useful for all, while reading, before reading, and after reading.

LI: to practise comphresion skills 

Filming l Narratives

We recorded our film for my groups narrative. We used Fotu's film. Fotu's film was explaining how working can sometimes get into arguements and disagreements.

First, the people in the film practised their scenes in the film, and they learnt their lines.

Then, my group and I started filming the scenes, I was the one filming with the camera.

I enjoyed having the opportunity to film the video, but I think next time I should improve on the camera movements.

Quiz Results l Who won?

Recently, we have made different quizzes to test our partners knowledge and see what questions that they should work on more, we have also been tested on different math equations.

First, I started with my first quiz from Chisa, the first quiz came up to twenty questions that uses addition, subtractions, mutiplication, and divison. The score and time I got was four minutes and fourty-seven seconds, and my score was twelve out of twenty points.

After, I started on my second quiz from Chisa, the second quiz came up to fifteen questions and they used, measurement, time, money, statistics, fractions, and geomtry. My score was ten out of fifteen questions that were correct.

I enjoyed answering each questions, and finding out where I am at for my knowledge. But next time I think I should improve on the questions Chisa gave me.

Summer Learning Journey l Teaser Week

The Summer Learning journeys is a progamme that can help you be active while summer, every year represents a new theme and name that can also come with different activies. The summer learning journey also helps create new knowledge and information about different sources.

We recently did our kick start activity to understand the definitons of the theme, name, and what the Summer Learning Journey means this year.

The kick start activity uses a colouring book, and you get the option to colour anything in the art peice, there is a limit of 16 colors, the coloring pad has access to draw quickly when you press somewhere on the art peice.

I think the kick start activity is a good way to colour, and enjoying the reason of colouring, you also get to have the options of colors which also is fun.
