Sign Language Week!

Kia ora bloggers, did you know that this week is Nz sign language week? Today I have been learning about the history of sign language and how to use sign language. Did you know that kids used to get punished if they spoke sign language, but the def kids used to secretly speak to each other when the teacher wasn't looking. Today I went onto a website called Sign Ninja Game and got to learn lots of sign language. First it teacher you how to sign each thing and them it tested you to see if you remember and if you don't it just takes you back to the learning video and you can try again. Have a go at it, as is so much fun and you have to feed this monster to be able to pass each level and you feed it with the food that you earn, whilst playing the game and doing the activities. After that our teachers wanted us to video ourselves signing our name. Have a look at mine. Have a great week bloggers, don't forget to practise your sign language, it is very important.

Game On Wednesday!

Hi bloggers, three weeks ago for technology I made a board game out of paper, as our teacher was away. I decided to make it kiwi related as that is where I am from and I think that it is a cool idea to do for a game. I really enjoyed this task and it was actually a lot more fun than I thought. Have you ever created a board game out of paper before? We also made counters and things that a normal board game would have but at this time I did not have them. Have a great week - I am so looking forward to the holidays, are you?



Maths - Film Times!

Hi there bloggers, we have been learning about 24 hour time and how to convert am/pm. Today's task is to think of three films and then find out the running time of each movie, add a question relating to time and get someone else to work out the questions and give feedback. I had Sienna as my pair and she has wrote a lovely comment on my second slide and I have done a great comment on her slide too. I have enjoyed doing time and have found most things quite easy as I have done this last year too. Have a great rest of your day! What do you think I could do next time to improve, I think I could probably add both answers in for each movie.
