Jonah's Cybersmart Challenge #8 Google Presentation Slides

 Today at School I did another Cybersmart challenge, challenge #8. This challenge is about using Google Slides (Click this to go slides)  to create an animation. Here's what I had to do

Step 1: I go to Google slides and name it 'Your name' Boat Animation. 

Step 2: Then you want to go to to where the line is, tap the arrow pointing down and pick polyline (click it).

Step 3: After you do that you're gonna make a boat shape with the flags

Step 4: And then make waves with the curve line. After that just create a backround and VOILA! 

Something I really found easy was creating the boat, but something I found hard was making the slides (copying and pasting the slides), nevertheless here is my activity down below.

Jonah Conjunctions 1 and 2

Today for literacy I did conjunctions. Conjunctions are a word used to connect clauses or sentences or to coordinate words in the same clause.

Something I really found hard (Activity 1) is the 'Ends and Starts' Activity, I think this one was hard for be because I had to add the words together to get the conjunction.

Now about Activity 2 (Hardest thing) was the 'What goes Together' Activity because I didn't get the hot and cold because I did not see the H and the C.

Here is my activity down below!

Jonah Adjectives activity 1 & 2

 Today for literacy I did another Nouns activity but this time it was adjectives. An adjective is a word that can name a word naming an attribute of a noun, such as sweet, red, or technical. Another example of an adjective word is abandoned.

Something I found hard about activity 1 was the 'Pick the Adjectives' activity, just because I didn't know I just had bold the Adjective but I also had to highlight the nouns (I didn't read it properly). 

And something I found hard about activity 2 was the making adjectives because I had to see the adjectives and write it down, but I couldn't see any, nonetheless here is my activity dow below!.

St Patrick, Soul friends and Ash Wednesday

Today for Saint Pius X we had a very special mass. This mass is special because we celebrated the three important occasions for our school . They are, St Patrick's day, Soul Friends and Ash Wednesday. As we journey in the fourth week of lent, today we honour St. Patrick who is the patron saint of the Irish people and The Holy Faith Sisters who started our school, more than sixty years ago, who were from Ireland. They brought with them the beautiful idea of Soul Friends. We had our Ash Wednesday today because we were on lockdown during Ash Wednesday.

In the early Irish church the people chose someone smart to be their soul friend. This is a friend that they can talk to and share their life experiences. The soul friends seek his/her advise and share their stuff in life like how their life is going and their worries. About St. Patrick, St Patrick's full name was Maewyn Succat and then he changed his name to Patricius, or Patrick. St. Patrick was born in Britain—not Ireland—to wealthy parents near the end of the fourth century. He is believed to have died on March 17, around 460 A.D. Here is a photo of out soul friends sharing lunch and my poster of Ash Wednesday Soul friends mass and St Patricks day.

Pablo Picasso Art - Cubism Drawing #1

Yesterday the 9th of March Te Wariua Pakiki 4 (TWP 4) did some art that is based on Pablo Picasso's art.      Pablo Picasso was a 91 year old that drew paintings, Picasso was born on the 25th of October 1881 and was born in Málaga - Spain, he lived in 2 different places Madrid and Paris. Pablo had two siblings Lola Picasso and Conchita Picasso, his parents were José Ruiz y Blasco and María Picasso y López. Picasso started playing at the age of 15. He died 8 April 1973 at the age of 91. This is one of his art and mine.


In cubism art you can play around with lots of shapes . The facial features like you eyes, nose, mouth and ears can be in different shapes and in different places, Our teacher said "Cubism is that it looks like as if the painting dropped and cracked and was rearranged when put back  together. " When we looked at the pictures we noticed that everything was in a different order. After our teacher demonstrated and we saw lots of examples it was our turn to draw.
Step 1: In pencil, draw your head, any shape will work. You can use a mirror or draw from your imagination. 

Step 2: Add your facial features, eyes, nose, mouth, etc. Try to use your shapes you noticed in your discussion.

Step 3: Add your hair, What lines can you use took look like your hair.

International Women's Day 8th March 2021

On the 8th of March was International Women's Day. In our class we did an activity to challenge the stereotypes and bias of both male and female role's within our society. We first had to get into the same gender groups. We then wrote down the positive and challenges of the opposite gender. The boys wrote about the positive and challenges for females and the girls wrote about the positives and challenges of being male. After we came up with some ideas in our groups we then joined our groups our groups with the opposite gender. Something we notices was the two lists were very different. Women had more challenges. For example men can play and get professionally for sport, get to sleep in and are fathers We also said that a challenge for a male is the they provide for the family and have to always be brave. Something we learnt that males and females aren't considered equal in lots of aspects of life. Can you add any more stereotypes to this?

Jonah Math Slide & Math Starter

Today for maths I did Prototec level 4 with a timer and another math slide, something that I found hard on the Prototec was the 20 - something = 15 one because someone came and distracted me and I did not have much time to write it, something I found easy was the Doubles/Halves to 20 because I knew my doubles and halves to 20, and nothing was hard for the slides.

Jonah Cybersmart Challenge #5

Today for Cybersmart I did another challenge, challenge number #5. The challenge was taking a photo of a drawing that I drew and put it on a blog. I chose this picture because it was really easy to draw and it was just my name. Here is my picture below!
