Famous New Zealander/Lorde

 

I learnt more skills as a communicator, because I was able to ask question's of friends and others to help put me on the right track. I also showed Kaikorero by helping others to complete there learning.

I self managed myself by getting on with my learning and finishing it in the time I was given. I also showed Kaiwhakarite, because I had all the tools I needed to complete the task, and had them out when I was meant to.

I shared my ideas with Comix, using the tools provided to create the story of Lordes childhood up to now. I found Comix a fun and different way to show our learning.

I was a researcher  because I used google to help me find out my questions, I asked the questions that I needed to, to get the information I needed to create a story. 

Next term I could add more information into non-fiction stories, and go beyond what I can already do to improve my learning.

Then and Now

 


 
In this blog post we were learning about what it was like in the 1900's and what it's now. For this task we had to, interview Mrs Leggett, as she lived in the 1900's. We copied down notes in a group, because we didn't want to forget what she said. Next, we designed a title page, and got to work on our writing. After we had finished writing, we had to add in a backgrounds and pictures to help the reader understand what were saying. Finally (now),  we have to reflect on our learning in our blog post.

One thing I enjoyed about this task, was interviewing  Mrs Leggett because it was a different experience, and I enjoyed predicting what Mrs Leggett was about to say. I also enjoyed this because we got to work in a team to decide what we were going to write down, and how much detail. 

I communicated with the reader, because I put in audio to help the reader understand. I also used pictures, title page, and text, so that there should be a way for everyone to understand.  

I organised my idea's/information I had gathered in a way that I think people will understand, because I made titles when I was talking about Now or Then, so the reader's would now when I'm switching from Now and Then.

I choose the right source of information, because Mrs Leggett lived in the 1900's and was able to provide the answers that we needed to complete the task.

I stayed organised and managed my time effectively, because I finished my task on time and made sure everything was the way it needed to be, to show that I researched, communicated, and was a self manager.
