ASB Getwise

Today we had Jayden from ASB who came to talk to us how saving money is very important in our lives. To help us perceive the message that saving money is important Jayden created a game where we were splitted into 5 groups and pretend we went to Fiji. We had a budget of $1,800 and was to spend it wisely on before we went to Fiji like our passport, the flights, accommodation, Insurance and the money were going spend at Fiji for things such as food, groceries, and activities (like swimming with the sharks). There were a range of choices for some of the subjects such as flights had two prices. One price was $200 where you are in a seat that's uncomfortable or a flight for $700 where you have luxury seat and also food ordered to you. Our group (which was group 2) decided to take the cheaper options than the expensive which was a good idea. I worked with Zane, Nyijah, Julian,Maritea, and sky.

Matariki Poster.

This week we did a poster with some of the LS1 students. We worked collaboratively to actually complete this task. The poster that we were creating was about Matariki. As we were researching through google we found out some interesting facts. Did you know that Matariki is the mother of her six daughters? These information came from our smart searching skills. We actually talked about what work we wanted to do. I chose to research some of the questions so that my group could understand the celebration of Matariki. I worked with Jaydon , Zane , and other 2 people from LS1.

Celebration Matariki Day

Today at our school, Panmure Bridge school. The matariki celebration was awesome because the amazing performances the students done. The first that shared there performance was the Maori group. They did well because the loud noises they presented. The next performance was the drummers and they really did awesome because they put out the audience with there stunning beats.I was apart in the drumming group, and i am really proud of myself for being confident and trying my best . The next group was the junior kapa haka and they made the students in their classes really happy. The next group was the ukulele group and they were amazing as well because the song they were singing to and playing the ukulele. The last group of the day was the Pasifica Group. I think they did a fantastic job and representing their culture well. I would like to say thank you to Ms Whaea Odie for setting up

All Chicago Sport Teams.

 This week Mrs Anderson has returned from the United States and we heard all about her trip with Ms Kirk Patrick. As she went to Chicago Mrs Anderson asked us to create a DLO about the main sports of Chicago. The teams Mrs Anderson has chosen are the: Blackhawks (Ice Hockey), Chicago Bulls (Basketball), White Sox (Baseball), and the Cubs (another baseball). This DLO above talks a little bit about all the chosen sports teams and their home stadiums. My group and I all worked on one of the teams and we all finished on time. Everyone in my group had a team to write about.

M&M Presentation

This week for maths we have been researching about M&M's with Mr Johnston. In groups we were to create a presentation with facts and informative graphs about M&M's. I found this task really fun because we got to explore new things and get creative with our learning. Everyone worked collaboratively and did an even amount of work. Jack also did some great drawings that links to our information. After finishing our presentation we had to present it to the class. I think we did really well presenting, but next time some of us need to speak up. The most interesting thing I found out was that when M&M's were first made they didn't have an M on it

M & M Question Slide

This week for maths we worked collaboratively in our groups to finish our shared presentation. The task was to create a presentation with history about M&M's. In our google slides presentation we included the 2 graphs, interesting facts about M&M's, history of M&M's and our answer to the mars company statement. 2 of the interesting facts I found out that was really interesting to me was peanut M&M's came out in 1954 and over 400 million M&M's are produced each day.
