Life

 LI: To write an abstract noun senses poem.

An abstract noun refers to an idea, quality or state that you can't see, hear, touch or smell. 

For example: Life looks like a busy street bustling with people beginging their day.

The five senses are hear, smell, taste, touch, feel.

A metaphor is comparing two things, saying one thing is the other without using 'like' or 'as'.

for example Happiness is rhe sun rising in my heart.

Cinquain Poem

 LI: To write a cinquain poem to describe a sports star



We have been learning to write cinquain poems to help us strengthen our connections to description. A cinquain poem has 5 lines. Each line has a different purpose. Line 1 is a noun which is a name. Line 2 has 2 adjectives taht describe the noun. Line 3 has 3 verbs that end in ‘ing’ and describe the actions. Line 4 is a noun phrase which is a group of words (not a sentence) that go together to describe the noun. Line 5 is a synonym which is a word with a similar meaning to the noun.

Technological practices


LI: To use technological practices process to design a toy.

l

For Mrs Fisi’iahi’s Inquiry lesson, we were focusing on the three last technological processes. They were: build, test and evaluate. We used the required materials in order to build the AUV rover. After this, we tested and compared each group’s rover to see which group was able to scramble across the floor the furthest. Evaluating our results was the last step.


I found this activity interesting because we found ways to create the mars rover with materials we had.

Identify, Investigate & Design a model of rover

 L.I to Identify, Investigate & Design a model of rover

The three technological practices were identify, investigate and design. When doing these technological practices, we need to make sure we are doing it properly for a proper trial and error project. Identify means to observe the opening problem. Investigating means to research how to solve the problem or research how to use materials for the model. Design means to draw or create a blueprint/sketch of your model. These three practices help you to build an end product of your model. Our group enjoyed looking into these practices and worked together as a group to come up with a design.
