“Let’s go find the super duper mushroom” said Jade. But pearl wasn’t doing as well as Jade, the goblin’s trapped her in a dungeon. Jade and Alex was flying the goblin king’s dungeon. Pearl saw Jade and yelled “Jade” Pearl said angrily. “Why did you leave the minute you saw me?” “I went into the forest to find something to make me more powerful” Jade said “and I met Alex” Jade added “oh,ok”  said pearl calming down.

For whanau STEAM term 3, tūī 4 has been focused on Lynley Dodd a New Zealand author 📖 .

Lynley Dodd made these characters Hairy Maclary, Schnitzel von Krumm, Scarface Claw, Slinky Malinki and Zackary Quack 🐥.

Fact about Lynley Dodd

Lynley Dodd has won the New Zealand 1990 Commemoration medal🏅

My group did Zachary Quack and in my group I had Cassandra٫Olivia , Giada and me 💖

The stuff I learned in term 3 STEAM

🌟 Lynley Dodd’s character’s🐕‍🦺

🌟how to work as a team 🤝

🌟How to present our work at assembly 👩🏻‍🤝‍👩🏼

My favourite part about this STEAM this term is learning how to form a presentation in front of an audience and forming becoming capable of talking in front of a audience ✨

This was our script for our assembly 💗

And who is this small friend with a splash and a quack 🐣

It’s Zackary Quack who never looks back👀

A duckling so tiny with feathers so bright 🐥

Splashing and dashing with all of his might 💦

 

And this was our photos that were displayed at tūī harpori assembly 🦜

This is the Capcut that me Leo and some other people made ( here is the link ) 🎁

I hope this blog post will help you understand what tūī 4 has been doing for term 3 ☺️

Ernest Rutherford-The Triatomic Molecules

This week in STEAM, we had a super cool activity where we became history detectives! 🕵️‍♀️🕵️‍♂️

In small groups, we were given a famous New Zealander to learn about. Some of us had Sir Edmund Hillary, the first man to climb Mount Everest! Others learned about Jean Batten, the amazing pilot who flew all the way across the world 🌍✈️. Some of us even explored the life of Ernest Rutherford, the scientist who helped discover atoms! ⚛️

In my group we had Cassandra,Olivia and I ,we worked together to find important dates in their lives – like when they were born, when they did something amazing, and when they changed the world. We put all our facts in order to make a giant timeline on a big sheet of paper. It was like building a story of their life!

We turned our paper timelines into awesome digital timelines on Canva. We added pictures, and fun colours to make them pop! 💻🎨

We learned:

  • How to work as a team 🤝
  • How to make sure the facts are true and not false👍🏻
  • How to use digital tools like Canva 👩‍💻👨‍💻

It was fun learning about these brave and clever Kiwis. We think they would be proud of our timelines!

⭐️I didn’t know that Ernest Rutherford had a wife.
⭐️ I learned the Ernest Rutherford spit the atom in The University of Manchester in England.
⭐️“Ernest Rutherford was super smart! I liked finding his science discoveries🔬

We can’t wait to do more STEAM learning and share it with you next time! 💡✨

Here is my timeline of Ernest Rutherford  💖

Thank you for reading my blog post💖

Our kiwi world

For Weeks 3&4 , Olivia,Cassie ,Giada and me created a new Minecraft world in hopes of recreating New Zealand’s most famous landmarks, animals, and fauna on a digital platform. This is the end result.

What NZ identity features did we include?

We included The Okahune Carrot, The Beehive, Giant Lemon & Paeroa Bottle, and The Skytower. We also built many kinds of birds and trees.

What did I learn about Aotearoa during this project?

I learned that New Zealand has lots of famous places that I did not know about.

What digital skills did I use?

We used Minecraft to create a digital world that showcases the structures, plants, and animals of Aotearoa, New Zealand.

What would I do differently next time?

We would definitely create more sizable structures with more detail, and focus more on the landscape and positioning of everything.

 

How well did we work together?

I feel like we worked together really well especially we had Giada join our group halfway through the project.

what do I know about water cycles and cycle in nature 

I do not know much

What did I do on Tuesday?
