Pie Chart | Maths

 L.I To plan and carry out a statistical investigation. 


Fau, Chris and I asked different students in LS2 4 different questions. Those questions were; ‘What is your favorite Color’ ‘What is your favorite Animal’ ‘What is your favorite Food’ and ‘What is your favorite brand’. After gathering the data, we recorded it on a piece of paper and then created a graph. We chose one of the 4 questions as a topic for our graph. The question we chose was ‘What is your favorite Color?’. 4 students liked blue, 4 students liked purple, 2 students like black, 2 people liked green, 1 person liked Sage, 1 person liked red, and 1 person liked yellow. With the data gathered, we formed a pie chart/graph. from this graph that we had created, we found out the percentage of the classrooms, favourite colors, the results can be shown above.


I really enjoyed this activity, because it was very fun to ask students about their personal favourites and finding out the color that the majority of the class like.

Summary of Tiriti o Waitangi

 L.I to explain in fewer words what the text is about. 



 The treaty of Waitangi is a day of celebration to remember a historical day of peace; where the treaty was signed by many chiefs. Today we worked collaboratively in our groups, to summarise and learn about the history of the Treaty of Waitangi. In this activity we got to learn more about the Treaty of Waitangi and about why it was signed by many chiefs so New Zealand could be a part of the British Empire. One fact that I found very interesting, was how the British didn't properly translate the Te Tiriti treaty, which caused the Maori to think they were signing something else. I really enjoyed that we got to learn more about the Treaty of Waitangi, so that we know why it is a holiday in NZ, aside from ignoring the history behind it.

My Own Optical Illusion | Summer Learning Journey | Week 1 Activity 7

 L.I to use inspiration from other optical illusion's to create your own.  


In this DLO, I have used inspiration from different optical illusion portraits, to create my own. As you have seen in my previous blog post I made, I had re-created a famous illusion by M.C Escher, in this activity we were asked to create our very own illusion. I have made a continuous dimond, that seems to never end. This took a very long proccess since it took a lot of copy and pasting. In the process of making this, My eyes started to see different things and I became to get more dizzer. What this optical illusion reminds me of is a portal to an outer space world. Here are the results.

Opstical Illusion | Summer Learning Journey Week 1 Activity 7

 L.I To use our creativity to create and design our own optical.

In this DLO I have re-created a optical illusion. this illusion is a Paradox Illusion, which means a illusion that is impossible to solve. As you can see here this cube is hard to figure out which side it is facing. This illusion was created by M.C Escher. M.C Escher is a dutch graphic artist who is mostly well known for his impossible construction, infinity explorations, design, and tessellations. In one of the potraits that he had made it showed how this illusion was made below. In the potrait, it showed a young boy sitting on a bench playing with this object. Below this DLO, a video of me explaing the types of illusions, and more about M.C Escher is their as another part of completing the step it up challenge.

Comment down below what is your favourite type of illusion!

Taneroa | Summer Learning Journey | Wk 1 A 6 Step it up

 L.I to create a more detailed Kowhaiwhai pattern. 

                                    

Storyline: This Kowhaiwhai pattern is about Rangi & Papa, before they were seperated. I hae used Blue to represent Papa(Sky) and Green to represent Rangi(Nautre). I also used two koru's to with different colors to represent the children they had. 

In this DLO above, I have used my creativity to create a more detailed kowhaiwhai pattern. A kowhaiwhai pattern is a monograph that expresses a story using maori art. Just as the last task, we needed to create a kowhaiwhai pattern; but in this activity, we were able to use different lines and make it more detailed. This activty also concluded us to create a storyline as any other kowhawhai pattern.

In my kowhawhai pattern I hade used two main colors which were the main key of understanding my story. With my kowhaiwhai pattern I created a heart, to create the love of Rangi & Papa

 I really enjoyed this activity because of how we used our creativity, and how I needed to research more into different moari myths to get my storyline. 

Leave your thoughts below on what you think about my pattern.

Taneroa | Summer Learning Journey | Wk 1 A 6 Kick Start

L.I to use our creativity to create a Taeroa Pattern. 
                                   

 Panmure Bridge School, had the opportunity to compete in the Summer Learning Journey. SLJ is a organization that encourages younger students to keep their learning going, by doing assigned activities, with themes behind them. SLJ has been running for over 5 years, and this is the 6th year currently. 

In this DLO, we were asked to create a Taeroa Pattern, out of a koro. We were only allowed to repeat and resize, recolor and rotate these koro's to make the Taeroa Pattern. In my Taeroa Pattern, I repeated the process, and went for modern and tidy pattern. I really found it hard to come up with a idea that wasn't the same with other bloggers work. I found it interesting, how many different ways we could put a koro and use it to design our own. Here are the results.

Te Reo Maori Atctivity 5 | Week 1 | Summer Learning Journey

 L.I to learn how to pronouce maori Sentences.


In this DLO at the top, LS2 had the oppurtunity to work with the Room 5 students to help them with their Te Reo Maori Knowledge. Mayshar and I had worked together to try find out which words best fit into the sentences. In this activity, we were asked to listen to an audio that conncluded a maori sentence. On the next slide we had to to match the words to create the sentence. Another part of this activity was to draw a picture of an activity that, me and my family members would do. I drew a image of me and family members at the beach. I drew this, because my family mostly likes going ot the beach, as it brings them joy and makes them remember how they lived in the islands. Here are the results.
