Maori | Word find

This week for Maori we had Mrs Odie. We did some puzzle that were involved in Matariki.
Some of the activities were the word find and we read a booklet. I really like the activities we
did because of the word find. The begging of Matariki new years was is June 15th and it ends
on June the 30th. For the word find we had to find lots of Maori words. We didn’t do the Booklet
because we ran out of time. On the back of the paper we had to write the Matariki Macarena and
write our name of the front. Mrs Odie showed us what some Maori words meant.

Warriors Trip

This week we went to see warriors train. We got put into three groups and we had three things to look out for in the training and that was Sounds like,Feels like and looks like. The class room whiteboard had a y chart that has the three things on it. We had to write down one of the three things that we saw,felt and heard. I was in group sounds like I wrote down it sounds like communication because the warriors were yelling out each others name so that they could pass the ball to one another.

Robotics

For robotics we made little models of moving things. We made the moving things with the brain a motor and other Lego pieces that were included. I was working with Fau for 3 weeks. Next week we will have to get into new partners. We had big boxes, a tray and a organizer. The organizer was a paper that had how many of the items that had to go into the tray. There were heaps of items including wheels to make the robot move. For the Models we had to make brain balance on the motor. Fau and I had many attempts but just couldn't get there, in the end we got our brain to sit on top of the motor with a little bit of help from the teacher and Carl. On the last week of being with our partners were got to finish off our models and have a competition to see what robot was the best. We did that by putting the robot on the long tables and then pressing the button on the brain.
