Minecraft – What I learned from Cassandra’s world!

A Review for Cassandra’s world: ⭐️

It very really good and creative, it was also really cool too! The kaitiakitanga zoo was awesome, it was like a minecraft world version of Kelly tarltons, except you can see the land and stuff and not just underground and underwater. But still, it was really cool and I loved doing the questionnaire and answering the questions.

 

What was in the world: There was an underwater aquarium and lots of animals there too. The underwater aquarium tunnel wasn’t that long but it was nice to see animals swim around above your head.

What did I learn from the world?

1. I learned to help baby turtles to get to the ocean

2. I learned how to dispose rubbish correctly.

3. And lastly I learned how to help a forest fire.

 

What was my favourite thing in the world? I really liked the underwater aquarium tunnel thing. It was so cool seeing a lot of animals swimming in the tunnel. But I also like the cherry blossom forest even if I didn’t go in there and check it out but it’s alright though

My rating out of 10

Blocks out of 10 – 9 blocks out of 10

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The whole world was very great but I wished that the aquarium tunnel thing was a bit longer so that I could keep on seeing the animals swimming above my head but that’s alright. I also wished that you could choose to look at both place (the aquarium tunnel and also the cherry blossom forest) because both places are really nice. The whole world is great though! 😀

Minecraft – The End. – WEEK 8

This is the final and last example on how to be kaitiakitanga. It tells you to donate any clothes or toys that you don’t need anymore and it could be sent to hospice or be sent to charity.

 

This is a trivia quiz, before you almost reach the end of the game you get to do another quiz to see what you learned.

 

This is the end of the game now! Once you’ve reached the end you can chill or hangout there!

 

What has been hard? To be honest, it would be doing the screen recording. Not that I don’t know how to screen record though, but because on the first few attempts I didn’t get the perfect one at first but then when I recorded the last one it was great! But when we posted it on Hero it had sound and we didn’t want sound but it was alright. We still posted it on Hero though.

 

What has been easy? It had been easy building the whole entire world sometimes it had been hard but I still managed through! It was also easy making the water cycle in minecraft! But I don’t really have anything else to say though.

 

Why am I proud of it? Because I think I worked really hard on the world and worked really hard on the design and layout. I’m also proud of it because of how much effort I putted in.

How did it make my world better? It made my world better by adding things that relate to kaitiakitanga and teaching people how our modern day life changes the world and its surroundings and how we create greenhouse gases and stuff.

How does it relate to our learning around life cycles of Kaitiakitanga? It teaches people about how our everyday human life activities can change the world around us and if we don’t pick trash up then our water ways would be polluted and how we need to do all of these things to protect our planet Earth.

Reflection WEEK 6: Minecraft

Some of the things I made this week:…

 

 

It was easy to: This week we had to make cycles in minecraft from what we learned last year. Bee life cycle, water cycle, plants life cycle and many more! It had been really easy to make the water cycle in minecraft, with some of my tricks and skills I made it. It’s also been easy making and designing the things I made in minecraft.

It was hard to: This week it was really hard to figure out ideas for what I’m going to build next and stuff. But I just decided to make an electric train because they don’t cause any noise pollution and also because they don’t use fossil fuel either.

My next step is to:… My next step is to build more things, so far I’ve shown eight examples on how to be kaitiakitanga. But I’m still not really sure what to do next so I’ll just wait and see what my mind can think up of. But that’s all I guess.

Minecraft Reflection: WEEK 4-5

Some of the things I’ve done so far:

 

 

Things that have been hard: It’s been kind of hard building the world all together and putting it all together. It’s also pretty hard to build what I’m imagining in my mind too.

 

Things that have easy: It’s been really easy to plan the world out and map it, and it’s also easy writing the blogs and stuff!

Next steps: The next steps I’m going to do is build my other stuff from my planning sheet and then after doing all that I’m gonna just have a check to see if I did everything right and maybe also correct my spelling?

How can we make NZ a better country?

How can we make NZ a better country?

by Eunice

first we can start by planting more trees for our eco-system. We could also start by picking up trash which some people are already starting to do! We can make NZ a better country by using public transport more, so it doesn’t cause a lot of pollution to our trees, plants etc.. using public transport could use less ‘fuel’ like, riding your bike is great start.

Term 1 – Information Report – The Stars

 – The Stars –

INTRODUCTION : Don’t you ever look up at the night sky and you see little dots twinkle? Well, those are stars! Stars are giant balls of gas that’s mostly made up of hydrogen. To us humans, stars are little dots in the sky.

What do they look like? 
To us, stars look like little white sparkly dots in the sky! But if you zoom in closer to the stars, then you can actually see what it looks like! Stars are also made up of gas just like our sun! They’re made up of hydrogen (mostly) stars glow like hot balls of gas in space. Even though stars are giant balls of flames in space, we still see them as white shiny dots in the sky.

 

This is what stars look like up close!

Life cycle.

A stars life starts with birth at first, then it expands! Stars first start out as a giant dust of cloud called a nebulae. The gravity forces the dust to stick together, as more dust gets together the stronger gravity gets! And it gets hot and becomes a protostar, when the centre gets really hot nuclear fusion will begin and the star is born! When hydrogen runs out, the outside of the star expands and it becomes a red giant. But, eventually the stars core will start to make iron. This causes the star to collapse, which depends on how much mass it had (or, how big it was.) A normal star would become a white dwarf star, but larger stars would create a huge nuclear explosion called a ‘supernova’ after, the supernova may become a black hole or neutron star. So, a stars life is like our human life! First, you get born then you grow up and become old. Then die!

Here is a diagram of the life cycle of a star!

How many stars?

According to astronomers, there are about 200 billion trillion stars in our universe! Astronomers also say that there are 100 billion stars in the milkely wave alone.

Stars in the milkey way

Conclusion : Stars are little dots in the beautiful night sky, look at them as they twinkle in the sky. Want to learn more? What do they look like? Stars in space look like hot giant balls of red hot gas! Stars don’t really look like that for us though, their just plain old white for us but in space their really different. Life cycle, a stars life cycle is truly amazing! It starts with birth at first, then it starts to expand, it depends on what type of star it is. How many stars are in the sky? There are many stars, like about 200 billion trillion stars in our universe! If you want more info on stars, go to:
