Maths – Circles!

Today for maths we learnt more about perimeter and area. We have done squares, rectangles, triangles, and now we are on circles. This was really tricky but I know if I keep on trying I will know this off by heart. I hope you have enjoyed this post. Please leave a positive comment on my blog.

Korero – Give It A Go!

This week’s korero was “Give It A Go”. The prefects and house captains made a movie for the korero. I filmed some parts and edited the movie. We also had some help from other people and kids. I really liked the way the movie turned out and I’m quite proud of it. I hope you have enjoyed this post. Please leave a positive comment on my blog.

Literacy – Fortnite Debate

Yesterday for literacy we did a debate but we got to choose which one we wanted to do. I chose fortnite, should fortnite be banned? Here is my writing/reasons why fortnite should be banned. I hope you have enjoyed this post. Please leave a positive comment on my blog.

 

  • Fortnite is an additive online game. Kids are addicted and play for many hours. They should do something more productive and focus on something else. 
  • Gaming/Fortnite can cause mental health issues, ADHD, social anxiety, gaming disorder and depression. They should be talking and playing with friends outside in real life instead of talking and playing with strangers online. 
  • It can be dangerous talking with strangers online, especially for children under the age of 12. Kids will be exposed to inappropriate language and things (like images, videos, etc). 
  • Fortnite is gabling in a certain way. Kids use their parent’s credit cards to buy things. To conclude this, these are my reasons why Fortnite should be banned and why kids under the age of 12 shouldn’t be allowed to play.

Extension – Colour Wheel Vocabulary

This week for extension we worked on colour wheels, definitions, and vocab. One of our first tasks was to find out the definitions of certain words and find the examples/colours of it. This was fun, interesting, and educational to do. I hope you have enjoyed this post. Please leave a positive comment on my blog.
