Adverbs

This week in phonics we have been trying to find adverbs. An adverb is a word that describes a verb or an adjective. we tried to find one for each letter of the alphabet the only ones I didn't find were one for U,. X,Y and Z.

I found it easy to have fun and work with other people but I found it hard to find adverbs.

Biteable

For the past few weeks in cybersmart we have been exploring other ways to show our work other than slides and drawings because thats just boring. I chose to have a play with Biteable. Biteable is a site that you can use to make videos. You can add music, images, text and even pick your own theme. But with Biteable you have a time limit of 3 mins. Biteable is such a fun tool and people should use it more often. The only downside is you have to have an upgrade to download the biteable.


I found it easy to have fun and pick a theme but I found it hard to get used to going of to get images and pick a new theme.


Sumopaint

For the past few weeks in cybersmart we have been exploring other ways to show our work other than slides and drawings because thats just boring. I chose to have a play with Sumopaint. Sumopaint is a drawing tool that has lots of different features but watch out you cant use the pro options because you have to pay for them. I think Sumopaint is a really cool tool to show your work and people should use it more often.

I found it easy to have fun and play with Sumopaint but I found it hard to get used to drawing on a chrome book and the different tools.

Canva

For the past few weeks for Maori we have been making a bookmark with the question " Ke te pehea to ahua o te rangi" (hows the weather in Maori). first we went onto Canva and chose the style info graphic, next we started making the book mark with a few answers. 

I found it easy to have fun, I found it hard to figure out how everything worked.

Pictographs

Today in strand maths we made pictographs. we answered question on a sheet to do with milk. we had to answer the questions using  the information we were given from the pictograph. Then we made our own pictographs.

I found it easy and fun to answer the questions But I found it challenging to write so much because my hand started hurting
