Today, I learnt how to use Google Maps to find my buddy School and I learnt how resize my canvas on Google Draw. I learnt that St Mary’s school is close to a river. My tip is to move your fingers slowly across the touch pad when zooming in or out.
Today in Cybersmart Room 6 created a Google Slide to celebrate our learning. We added different images and transitions to our slides. It was hard to animate some of our pictures. It was fun to learn how to create with Google Slides.
Today in Cybersmart we learnt how to duplicate, rotate, arrange and our fill bucket to create some gradient colours for our stars and background. One thing we found hard was to rotate our diamond using aerial. We also learnt how to nudge our shapes.It was a lot of fun.
Today, In room 6 for Cybersmart, Matua Peter and Whaea Justine helped us use shapes in Google slides. We had to use different types of colours, shapes and backgrounds. Some us made rockects, submarines and other cool things. It was a lot of fun.
Over the past few weeks, Room 5 have been work alongside with Matua Peter and both Whaea Justine and Whaea Fiona. We have working learning more about being a Cybersmart Learner, creating and working with our Chromebooks. We also have leant about our Smart Foot print too. We learn new skills and use them in our lessons. We love to collaborate and work together.
Today we shared our updated blog profiles for 2025. We were excited to be able to click the blog links on the left to take a look at our individual Room 6 blog profiles.
Our class have been working on creating Christmas animations using Google Slides. We have worked very hard to complete our animations. Here is Evan’s animation. He was the first to complete his animation and is very proud to share the story of Jesus’ birth.
Today we were learning to be observant when we see different media. We watched a video about a house hippo and thought about what we already know about hippos. We asked ourselves ” Did this make sense?”
Next we looked at different images and talked about why we thought they were real or fake. This photo tricked us. Do you think it is real or fake?
Leave your answer in the comments with your reason why.
Our challenge this term is to comment on our buddy class or individual blogs every week this term. It is important to read the blog post first so we can write a comment that is specific and thoughtful.
We have been crafting our blog comments first using the word lists if we need them. This enables us to check our comments make sense before we post.
Do you have a top tip for writing quality blog comments?
What digital footprint would you be proud of in the future? This week we looked online for people in our community who have a positive digital footprint and have been recognised for their efforts.
