The NZ flag

Today in class we all individually voted for the flag of our choice. We all made sure that we made an informed choice. To make an informed choice we created a T - chart with the sides yes I want to change the flag and no I like the flag we have. We worked in our thinking groups and used our devices to help us make an informed choice. At the end we all joined our ideas and made a class T- chart, our teacher then gave a a voting paper to make our final choice. One of the main reasons I chose the original flag is because the original NZ flag is an important piece of history, soldier fought with that flag and is know world wide and once we change that not many people around the world will know our NZ flag that represents us.Overall LS2 respected each others opinions. 

Space poster

This week our group created a motivating poster. We learnt about what makes an eye catching poster. I learnt a lot of things but one of the things I was most intrigued about was how your eye likes it when you use the rule of thirds. The rule of thirds is when you split it into three.

Making Dinner - Care award

Here is an image the Dinner I made for me and my sister. This is part of my care awards I have chosen to complete, and we cooked chicken and homemade chips. What I had to do was, season the chicken and my sister would put the oven in the right temperature and I would put it in. I also peeled the potato's and cut them. Overall I had a great time making dinner for me and my sister and at the end when we ate the chicken and chips it was delicious!

Today for writing we had to understand TOPES. We had to write a story based on Little Red Riding Hood based on TOPES. Charlize, Mia, Nazella, Zahra and I worked together to make the story happen with TOPES. I learnt how to write a quick story using TOPES. We did this activity so that we understand the  structure. The T is for tittle, the O is orientation, the P is for the problem, the E is for explanation and the S is for solution.
