My E portfolio is going to be used to visually showcase the work that Ill be doing in technology this year.s te
My blog will be used to reflect on my learning in technology. The year 10 digitech google plus community will be used to collaborate with other students about work we complete in digitech. We will be developing a game relating to sustainability. We have trialling a game to learn new skills in scratch.
3 skills I learned
- How to make a sprite
- How to make a backdrop

Recap website tools and techniques

Hey guys its been a long time coming but here I am as a year 9 in college showing you what I've been up to. In digitech we have been learning heaps about HTML and CSS coding. What do these both mean well let me explain. HTML means Hypertext Markup Language, the way people use this is to create a web page or web application. CSS means Cascading Style Sheet, people this form in coding to style up and customise their web pages or web applications. I hope this document I've made gives you more of an understanding. So far what I've learnt from this is how to change and input different types of fonts headings images and videos into a web page by code.

My Notes On The Sun

This term for our topic you probably already know that our schools topic is earth and beyond. So our class decided to focus on stars and we started out thinking about the sun. Here are my notes of what I have learnt so far.

SNAG Golf

SNAG GOLF
Today for Kiwi Sports we had SNAG golf which stands for Starting New At Golf. Our instructor was Hough. For our activities we had to roll the tennis ball to the bullseye and if we do we say SNAG. At the beginning I played with my three friends that's right friends, Etai, Lolo and TJ. We were playing on the bottom courts by the way. Anywho, when it was my second turn I two SNAGS in a row. We also did the shakeout thing like what post before. But unfortunately I had to leave early for a gloss test so here is a video to show what we were doing.

NZ ShakeOut Day Tommorow

Tomorrow will be NZ annual Shakeout day our people as a country will join in to celebrate it. In memorial of the Christchurch earthquake back in 2010. Check the presentation for more understanding.

Etai - Lolo - Brandon Cypress - WATER BOTTLE ROCKET - BIG REVEAL EXPERIMENT

I have just recently come back to school today and my fellow friends let me join in their group since I had a lot to catch up on. Here is a task that our class did yesterday when I wasn't here.

My Poem/Tic (ENJOY PLS)

Tic

On the sideline scouting for teammates that are open.

Fourth quarter and there is only seven seconds left on the clock,

I’m stuck in place.

Mad gorillas surrounding me calling for the ball.

Audience is cheering, going seriously crazy

I’ve stopped breathing,

staring into an imaginary distance.

Thinking about last play,

should I cut through the d?

or let my team do the job for me?

I am like an owl at night scavenging around my surroundings.

So much plays to use but only I think of one.

Time to do this.

Passing the ball to my teammate,

Quickly running into the court like a madman,

Cutting through to the back waiting for a pass,

I take a call,

3 seconds now left,

I get the ball and waste the clock a little,

BOOF!

In the air back down into slow motion again many thoughts in my head like,

“Will I miss, will I get it or do I look epic?”

The sight of victory is in my eyes as I release now its time to see the truth.

The ball takes lift off and makes its way towards the rim,

Everyone freezes.

Tic toc tic,

0.4 seconds on the clock, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1.

ERRRRRRRR!

Crank, Plank, Shih.

“MISS!”

Bar Key On The PC

I choose the bar key out of all of the thinkers keys to work on because it is fun and you get to be creative. The game or console that I decided to improve was the pc. I hope you will find my results interesting.

Cypress and James Blooms Taxonomy

This was an activity that me and my fellow friend James (LINK) have worked on this morning. It is a current events bloom's taxonomy on an article that we read. View it to see more about what we have produced.

Soccer Baseball

Today our class went outside to present each group games that we made to room 1. Because they were juniors we explained it with examples on how to play. They turned out to really like it. Check out the post for more to know about me, Sulaiman and Brandons game.

Iron Tamariki Key Imformation

Cypress

Our year 8 teacher Ms Aireen gave us a text to read called "Iron Tamariki". Then after we finished reading the story and summarised the text in our reading groups we then had to write down some key ideas from the text. Here is my key information. One key idea from the text is that Mana just wanted his parents to get along with each other during his training. He wanted for both of his parents to be together and be happy. Instead of him having a growth mindset towards to marathon he put himself down.

Brodie

Iron tamariki, a text the class was given to express the key information (ideas). The main idea me and a buddy have come up with is having a growth mindset. In the text there is a boy who wants to run a marathon, but with his mum and dad training him. With his dads help he was able to finish the marathon. This is explaining that the dad had a growth, how did I find this out? With my inferring capabilities with reading. So In the story a key Idea having a growth mindset not only because the dad helped in his son, also because the son chose to keep going and trying to complete the race.

Me and my friend Brodie worked together on this.

More of our description is on our writing above.

Te Whare Tapa Wha

For some of our work for inquiry we had to focus on the fall walls of a person's mind. We got split up into groups (I was with Mehi, Maopa and Sulaiman) and we had to do a jigsaw activity when each person of your group have to go to different groups to learn more about one wall. Then they return that information back to their home groups.
Here is all of our groups information.

Cypress and Sulaiman - Soccer Timeline

For inquiry this year you probably know that our school are focussing on games (world wide). An what our class had to do to get started into our research were to come up with ways to let our reader have an idea on what the game is, or what has happened in the game. Me and my mate Sulaiman made a timeline to show the history of our game. These are just the main dates and activities that have happened during the time.

Multi Multiplication Methods

These are me and my friend Brandons answers to this (Link) activity sheet. We were just showing off our knowledge of strategies we could use to solve complex multiplication questions.

String Art That I Like

In art technology our art group are focussing on string art for this term. We were told by the teacher to pick one piece of string art that you like and write down why you like it. I choose this piece read into it to see why.

Underground Explorers

Me and my fellow friend Brodie (Link) have read this book in our reading group called underground explorers. We had to summarize key events in the story and show our answers on each question. Drop a comment down below to give me advice on what I need to work on.

Place Value and Partitioning

Set as an assignment from our teacher Ms Aireen, me and my maths group divide 10 were supposed to answer 4 x timetable question using our place value and partitioning skills. Here were my answers and my strategies.

My Multiplicative Thinking DLO

This post is about my multiplicative thinking knowledge for this term. We have been learning about multiplicative thinking for the past 2 terms or so and so far I have learnt quite a lot. In this presentation are some examples of my knowledge and are questions that tell you where I'm at.

My Holiday

So right now were getting near the end of the holidays and I have been saving this post for quite a while. So far my holiday has been pretty all right and not to bad at the begging of the holidays I had a basketball tournament and yeah or team "The Tamaki Tornadoes game first (Not really). Ok so I lied we came last but in our minds we came first. Also during the holidays I played xbox 360 a lot, I went over to my friends house and I went to the shops as well but other then that, that's about it. Now that I start to think about it that's not really that much that I did. Mostly I was just being a LAZY SLOB and sat around watching TV. Umm so yeah that about sums out this post.
See you soon probably at the end of the holidays, BYE!
