4th Immersion w/ Nicole and Helen

15/9/17

Today with Helen and Nicole we were looking at history and our question was why is history important to remember We looked at photos which  are from the New Zealand History and order them and the year it was in.  I got in a group with Awatea and Rhiannon and made a Doc writing the orders and researched about the pictures. Helen gave us like 10 minutes to complete our research which we never finished it, but worked on it while Helen was explaning the history but it was hard to understand because the person kept on shouting out the answer all the time. 




The Signing Of The Treaty Of Waitangi - Between English and Maori

3rd Immersion w/ Max

Today with Max we have been looking at art and have been talking about Tiffany Singh helping us with art next to the cafeteria. He said she likes to put a lot of colour and that she likes to do other cultural stuff. We also watched apple video celebrating making their  Ipods ad put people  dancing in years. Can't wait to see what we do with the silhouettes.

Yesterday with Max we were looking for things that were important at Hobsonville point Rhiannon and I picked Pukeko because it was a native bird. We cut it out and putted it on a white paper with black drawing and then the other side but around.

2nd Immersion w/ Liv

7/9/17

Today with Liv we went to the high school, we were taking photos of signs (posters as well) and looked around, we didn't really do much and we came back to school.


11/9/17

Today we there were  printed signs from the high school on the table with pens and sticky notes. We had to write down on the sticky notes what we think it means and what it looks like. Then we looked at images and a checklist (sort of) and checked if there was like  movement, contrast and more. I'm excited for the next immersion lesson because the teacher said that have a photo of someone in the school and we can photoshop them/you.


12/9/17

Today we didn't get to use the  photoshop app to photoshop because not everyone had it on their  device (ME!) so we looked around our school and took photos of places where we could put signs (blank spaces) and then when we came back we made a word cloud using the website Word Cloud using the school values and words from the school website.

THE NEW CLASS ROOM!

On Friday it was Teacher's  only day  so the class got a day off. When we came back to school on Monday (today) the class looked so much different. There were like 6 mini table for two with two chairs for the  people in supported  and there were more full license people like jasmine, Christealla, Maya. C, Lelani, Troy. J  and more.


The other thing that the teachers told us was the lots of people have been asking to listen to music while working and they said that if we make a contract  having reasons and explaining why and we get our parents, the teachers and the child's signature you could.

I'm excited for the next teacher's day only to see what will change.
