Technology at Tamaki college

Today at tech the year 7 and 8's went out to tech. Our group went to digi tech (Ms. Anderson). We designed our own site then learned how to use and decorate the site, We played moana games and figured out how to play it. Then we screen shot the results, Then  put it on our moana slide we created then wrote about the game and what we did. I found this session exciting and simple.

Dance

Today LS2 group B was working out how to use robotic shapes and curvy shapes.

Joshua and I were working out how to do the robotic shape together and the curvy movement, It took us maybe 20 secs to work out a strategy to use for the robotic shapes. I found it hard and fun to work out  the strategy to use, and to put the shapes in order... I found this session fascinating and exciting.

Taekwondo

Today at taekuando,
LS2 group B were practicing Taekwondo. Taekwondo was very hard to do because we had to do everything very fast and did a few excising (Push ups and punching but not really punching and kicking) . We also had to listen to Steve (Mr. Pellow or Sir).The Taekwondo made me very fit and tired at the same time.

Today I have been  working out what these three words mean, Working out the words were very easy because I knew straight away that reusing means Using materials repeatedly (or over and over again).  

Today Magenta and I have worked on the currant events. The Currant Event we were writing about was  the Ivory factories and shops will be closed down by the end of 2017.
