Yesterday for CyberSmart we tried to find ways of how to say "Merry Christmas" in 5 languages, using the help of a video. We also had to wrote in what kind of language it was and how it was spelt in that language. We also had the option of using voice search to search how to say "Merry Christmas" in our languages of choice. We voice searched as well questions we could ask google, these voice searching questions will be in the 5th and 6th slides.
For the GIF we created a Christmas GIF with using our own plan/design, I decided to create a white christmas tree later on having a assorted blinking-like effect, then having a effect with gifts under the tree.
Kia Ora! Today for our CyberSmart lesson we were learning about dealing with dangerous/awful situations with trolls or haters, and keeping game fun and friendly, and seeking help. The instructions we learnt on how to handle these situations are :
1 . To ignore trolls or haters
2. Delete, block, or unfollow
3. Take a screenshot as a clear evidence incase things escalate
4. And most importantly, report these acts that are violating the guidelines/rules.
Next up each of us created a Google Drawing with the steps wrote in a flowchart, with our faces in a picture frame placed in the bottom right corner and our names written in. Here's my one :
For our CyberSmart lesson we were learning about what media is, and what are a few examples you could think of after watching a information video about media itself and what it appears to be in the real world.
Some examples of media are; newspapers, radio, adverts, television, film and cinema etc.
For our task we had to find/take a photo of ourselves and use the "Remove Background" site (Link : https://www.remove.bg/) and replace the original background with a suitable background photo with our portrait to make it look like we are out of school. This can be also be kinda like an example for fake photoshopped photos that people post in socials to frame/or manipulate people into thinking a photo or video is real
Here's mine (very end of slides presentation) :
For my class' CyberSmart learning we started our "Summer Learning Journey". For this year we had a art task, this includes choosing a famous landscape/place or a famous art (Link: https://artsandculture.google.com/experiment/art-coloring-book/1QGsh6vSfAQBgQ?hl=en) . For my desicion I chose the art with the name "Woman combing her hair". This art was made by Gо̄yo Hashiguchi, born in December the 21st 1880, died in February the 24th 1921. He designed 14 woodblock prints and is from Kagoshima, Japan.
For this task we had to choose a famous art/landscape and recreate the colours using our own style, here's mine at the top while the original art is in the bottom
Today my class has been learning about Physical and Chemical Changes, a chemical change are things that can cause a physical change is as if for example, you freeze water, the form changes from liquid to solid because of the energy added. A Chemical change are things that create a chemical change as if for example, a fruit ripens or you burn wood. Rotting, burning, cooking, and rusting are all the types of chemical changes. Because they create a whole new entire chemical or product.
<Today for reading my class was creating a Māori Glossary using the words from a Kahoot individual quiz we did earlier, I learnt lots of new Māori words like the word "Aihikirīmi" meant "Ice Cream". To create the glossary we needed 5-8 words in Māori that we could recall from the 2 quizzes we did, then type it in English translation.
The part I liked the most was customizing everything in the google drawing, The google drawing was pretty bland but next time I would make it more colourful and bright. Even though I only had five words I could probably add more next time.
Today for reading, my class has been learning about how to "Apply prior knowledge and opinions to a text" the topic was about shellfishes, this was also a science experiment but this was a task after reading though. We had to write in how shellfishes clean the polluted water, what they eat in clean/dirty water. We also had to explain why/why not should we stop consuming shellfish. We took pictures of the science experiment and as you can see, the photos are a little bit small in size and it is found in the right coloumn below the title "What shellfishes eat in clean water".
To write down our answers we had to research what they eat and watched a video about the task.
I did find some things challenging about writing down what shellfishes eat, but all in all the task was alot of fun and we learnt alot at the end of the day.
Today for Reading, my reading group was learning about "Applying our prior knowledge and opinions to a text". This also connects to what my class has been learning about, "Persuasive Writing" applying our opinions will help us very well with our writing. As you can see here in the slide I have added 3 reasons why Cats are better than Dogs and why it is better than the opposing one.
I had a lot of inspiration and fun customising and writing in this slide, I didn't find anything much hard while creating the slide.
Today my class has been learning about a "Quality Blogpost" and how we can edit, extend, and reflect more of our learning. My post includes information and ideas that demonstrate my understanding about quality blogposts, I created a google drawing to show my ideas about my learning for today.
A "Quality Blogpost" is a post that reflects on your learning & what your learning is about, a quality blog post also has correct punctuation and capitals.
Last week our class were discussing about how you take care of your chromebook and what damages it. We used google slides to create our "Kawa of care" presentation.
Kawa of care is about an agreement to protect and respect our chromebooks, it also means that we are a Cybersmart class and we will only use websites for learning and use the language of learning.
To make this presentation I used photos that is non-copyright and safe to use, I typed in the speech bubbles important things you should do.
