Recap:website- Tools and Techniques

In Digital Technology's we have been learning about coding. Part of coding is the HTML which helps structure a website. We learnt how to use the HTML codes to create our websites and here is a recap of the codes we used. This is just to show how codes work and go together like a jigsaw puzzle. It was fun to do but was challenging at time but those challenges were resolved by the help of my teacher and peers. I hope you enjoy learning what I have it's great fun and you should do it to!

Co Orodinates in math

Graphs- Line

Contents X goes across and Y up .always has two numbers

1 side of the x is - and the other is + up , y is + up and - down

X always goes before Y

My understanding is that we need to know this in case we go either to the navy or work on seas.

perfect learning area and easy to learn.

This Is My Reflection On 2015

Week 9 & 10: 2015 Reflection, looking back, looking forward!

WALT:

a. Write a quality reflection that shares my journey this year.  This includes reflection upon the year(s) ahead.

Success Criteria:  

We'll know we have succeeded when our reflection covers the

9 guides that help me to reflect on this year and the year ahead.

a. How do you feel about this year?

For me it really could have been better,

I got into trouble a bit this year and had to clean a few things  that were yuck, wasn’t really the year I could have hoped for.

b. What did you find especially satisfying this year?

This year the most satisfying thing for me would be the trips that team 5 had I hope for the year 8s next year that they have as much fun as this year's yr8’s did.

c. What did you find especially frustrating/difficult this year?

This was hard because I had to work with others and I prefer to work on my own because that way things get done the way I wanted it to.

d. If you were to to give yourself a grade out of 10 - 10 being awesome…what would you grade yourself? Why?

I would grade myself a 7 because I had a few pitchie part this year so that  a good one for me.

e. In what ways did you contribute to team 5 in 2015?

Just simply being a student and doing what I was told to do most of the time.

f. What would you change for yourself in 2016?

my whole life’s friends because some of the friends I have know aren't good to hang out with because we're the reason for us getting in trouble and my bad actions come with consequences

g. What might you want next year’s teacher to know about you?

I don’t really like to tell people what I like to do or what I like to make because of the judgements and looks I get

h. What things might you want more help with?

my math attitude is bad and I don’t really like to do math so if I get a teacher who can make me understand it and make it fun the i’m sure i’ll be fine.

Darkness of Life

Our poem is about a family in darkness and poverty. They live in this abandoned home and fight for their survival. They have had to adapt to this awful lifestyle.

Darkness of Life

Shattered glass across the floor

No one dares to open the door

Roof leaking

Drip drop drip drop

All you see is the mirror flop

1, 2, 3, 4, 5

All you see is the darkness thrive

The beds a mess

Nowhere to rest

Curtains closed almost there

Coldness seems to disappear

Warmness wraps the room like a teddy bear

With a life like there's

No one would dare

To even care

About this poor family in rags and rain

So help me now because there life is like a horror  

they need some means to fix their error

Superman

 This is about the history of superman from way back in the 1700 to 2015 and how he's changed so much over the years, this is my research

The Horrors Of Being A Persenter

Manaiakalani film festival

presents

“lights” “pulse” “panic! what's going with me” I said as I thought about standing on a stage in front of heaps of people “ herrrr can’t believe that I asked to do this” “OMG”. Then Chelsea, my best friend in the whole world walks in “ Sarah it’s time for you to go presenters were asked to line up 2 minutes ago what wrong” “nothing just washing my face let’s go”. The sore stomach had kick in, like a monster that had just been woken up from a hundred years of migration “aww”.

On the bus finally with all my friend making me feel less terrified of stage and lights I put a smile on my face and was going to fake till I had made it. At Sylvia Park hoyts cinema, everything was going well until I saw the spot light that made everyone see you on the stage. Being a presenter was the hardest thing ever.

The first presenters were my friends Jordan and josephine they made it look so easy and for a good reason there movie was great, but I knew that once there movie had finished my presenter buddy and myself was up next and the terror flushed through me like a drink of orange juice, but my buddy Liz told me that your blinded by the light you can’t even see anyone, that made me feel better and before I knew it was over and done with and I was on the seats watching everyone else movie’s.

After and hour in a hot  and mugie theater everyone that was going back to school was outside in the icy winds waiting for the bus to come. A group of friend and myself were sitting with the little presenters playing hand games while keeping each other warm.

When the bus came I quickly snuck on to the bus with my friends and went back to school with her. After we were back at home Mrs Tele’a got us to watch other schools movies and comment on their blogs to give them some feed back the day was awesome and we finished it of with  a song in the afternoon.

The day was a blast

Walking  into the  class

Now sitting on the mat looking out the glass

Waiting for the rhythm of the guitar

While the harmony is rising

The melody has risen

And so have the students at the horizon

---

Sitting inside class

Waiting for the hour glass

My class shouts out loud

While standing below the clouds

Walking now too tech we go

I see little kids with bow and arrows

Hip hop hooray

Time to start the day

---

Waiting for class

Hoping we were doing nothing

Because this morning i’m not that stunning

The bell goes

I’m running

It’s time for class

My head is not ready

I can’t start already

I’m in need of energy

Bedouin People research

 Here is what we have been learning about Bedouin people  and how they adapted to their surroundings.

Best time ever!

Best time ever!

Yesterday was awesome because, we had an amazing race challenge.

There were challenges like the fear factor, the cookie challenge, the pea pipes, the brain busters and the photo booth. Four were chosen for your group, for my group the challenges were number 1, the cookie challenge, number 2, the pea pipes,  number 3, the fear factor and last the brain busters. All trickie and disgusting but fun at the same time.

The first challenge to face was the cookie, the cookie challenge was were you would put the cookie on your forehead and within a minute you would have to get it too your mouth without using your hands. I thought the task would have been easy but time after time me and my friends would fail, expect 1 Uli the boy who would eat any thing on his face, every time he would try he would get it I didn’t know how he did it every time.

2nd best challenge was simple you get a straw get a pea to stay on the end of it and take 3 meters away without it falling to the ground easy right, WRONG it turns out that other people bumping into you on there way back to the bowl would make it fall and you start again. I made it every time from one bowl to another  without failure. The other three in my group were good  but I thought we were the best untill one and only one in our team was to cheat Hiwarau, he would pick some peas up and then put one on  the end of his straw and the when he got to the other bowl he would put them in to help us win but the teacher saw and so by default we lost angrily we went to the next challenge fear factor were we would face the fear of yuck spaghetti and fruit salad.

It’s true what your thinking  why would we eat grouse food simple to get points  and no the spaghetti didn’t have mold on it, it was mixed with  a tin of fruit salad yuck right. Before we got to that we had a choice to make who was going to eat the dry weat-bix decisions were made to vote three votes were to me the only girl to try eat a dry weat-bix “oh well”  as I walked up to the front “piece of cake” and man was I wrong it was as dry as the sand at a dessert or of chipped wood put in the sun I mean it was bad, a minute late it was gone I didn’t win all I got was a sore throat that only water could fix. before long 2 were picked to do the yuckiest of all, the spaghetti and  fruit salad. Again I was picked with Hiwarau and to make it easier we decided that he was going to eat the spaghetti and I was going to eat the fruit. It tasted awful I wanted to vomit. In the end we lost but the fun was all that matters.

Now the moment I was waiting for Brain Busters the easiest one of all,

the first question was easy we flew through it in a jippy and we got our next question and with this one man did our smiles fly of our faces, how on earth are you ment to have a triangle with nine circles and each side would have to equal  17 only using 1 to 9 numbers and your not aloud to use the number more than once. How on earth are you ment to do that. Difficulty everyone in our group  tried and failed so much for smarts.

We failed pretty much at every task that lied ahead of us yesterday but we didn’t care. The fun for us was all that matters for our team the points were nothing the fun was everything.

Yesterday Rocked

T4 Week 4 2 ways of showing it

 This is what I have been learning how to do in class this week. I have been learning how solve the same question using different ways of working out.

My Missing Ipod

Sitting outside starbucks drinking a nice hot chocolate, under a constant cover of clouds and chilling winds in Sylva Park, waiting for the hoyts cinemas alarm  to tick on my phone. The time went slow but after just getting comfy  “ding” goes the alarm and i’m  off for a great movie “dracula”.

On the way to the movie I had noticed that my bag of goodies had gone, so I was of to starbucks to see if anyone had picked it up. Thankfully after a long walk back, I asked a lady at the counter if she had seen a bag with things in it that was suitable for a movie then she disappeared below the counter and with a struggle she lifted my bag onto the counter, “few thank you” I was so happy and the the alarm on  my phone went off again this time with only five minutes to go as I left I yelled “thanks” and dashed for the hoyts.

Finally after a long run back I had made it through the doors and into the screening room.

The movie was great right from the start but very loud. After the movie  I went to the food court to have dinner and then I went to the train station to catch the 8:15 train home.

while I was on the train I went to listen to my Ipod and it was gone out of my back pocket,

the next thing I knew I was having a big worry fit trying to think back to when I last had it thinking thinking “man it was in the cinemas” so I text my dad and said I was going to be late home and to see if he could pick me up when I text next his reply was always “yes”.

I raced back to the cinema and asked to look for my ipod that I had left in cinema 4 from the last movie lucky they let me. I should had known it wasn’t there all that was left was my headphones so someone had picked it up ‘bummer” I said as I walked out.

At the carpark waiting for my dad to come the lady that was sitting next to me came up to me and handed my my purple Ipod, I was stunned “Thank you a million times” was my reply she was happy she found me and offered to wait with me until my dad picked.

When he got there we said our goodbyes and left soon to meet again.

On the way home I told my dad what happened he said “I was lucky she was so nice”.

In the end I got my Ipod back and in the future I hope it never happens again.

Valentine's Day out

                                                   Writing a Recount

Term 3, Week 8

Topic: Excitement overload

Purpose: To learn how to add detail

Audience: blog viewers

Title: Excitement overload

It was February the 14th, Valentine's day and everyone in my class was making cards.  The girls were graciously  dancing around the room knowing that it was Valentine's day the most romantic day of the year. Out of the blue everyone started talking about  their plans for Valentine's day, suddenly the girls at the table looked straight at me, with a sour look on their faces, the girl to right of me asked

“so who’s your valentines this year Sarah”

My reply was simply “my best friend”

The girls started laughing at me, really the boy you've been friends with since kindergarten “yeah we do it every year” I replied.

“Ever since we met  we've done It you just don’t get it”

The girls looked away in disappointment, we have the same argument every year and it’s alway over “Jacob”  maybe they like him or maybe they think I like him  but the only liking there getting from me is the likement of friendship. Just then I see him with all his other friends I hear him tell them to wait and then when the girls see him, they start trying to get their hair ready like girls cursing over the cutest guy in school “OMG” I said. Just then I glance over and he’s almost here I quickly hide my card and his present, “hi I made you this” he said

“Thanks” just then I see him look down and see a box with his card on it “ is this for me” “yeah I was just waiting to give it to you”

he opened the box and saw the present I got him “you shouldn't have” “ know but I thought I was better than just a plain old card every year” “ but know I look stupid because your present was just the card I’ll get you something else” “no it’s fine” “are you sure” “ yes know go there waiting”  

Later that day, Jacob rang me asking if I was still going to Valentines for dinner with my family I said “yes” and he asked to come I asked my mum  she said “yes”

I text him and said to meet at my house  by 4pm. On the way to Valentines my phone was going plastic from all the texts from Jacob, he was so nervous because my dad was coming  and they had never meet him. Because of my  he and my mum split when I was born.

When we got there Jacob sat down and then what I was hoping would never happen happened my dad started talking to Jacob and all the question came out like “were he was from” and “how old he was”. Things were getting weird so I called my dad to get some food with me. Well we were gone my dad started asking question about me and how me and Jacob meet, my reply was as simple as pie “when we were younger and we’ve been friend ever since” My dad was surprised to see that I was quick and  confident to defend my best friend, my dad's face  still thinking of something to respond back with “oh so your just friends that's it right” quick responce to say “yes”. The awkward walk back to the table was silent.

The table was scattered with food that was left over, Jac and I were the ones to clean up and order the  drinks. The rest of the night was a flow, filled with small talk and chit chat.

My cousin was look out side with wonder, I asked if I could take her to the window at the front of the restaurant to look and the night sky. When we got to the window and looked out the night sky was filled of the of glowing light that reflected on the sky like a mirror.

Then on the way back to the table, I slipped on my dress and ripped one off the pieces off it, luckily my cousin never got hurt because she was in my arms, just then I look over and see everyone laughing at me at that moment I was embarrassed but now I look back at that moment and laugh. After that we all decided to go after the goodbyes in the carpark.

The drive home was long and loud, everyone was talk and singing alone to the music playing on the radio, Jac had finally come out of his shell of shyness and my worries were gone about my dad and him. The next day school was a bress and the time at valentines was awesome.
