2024 Paris Olympics – (Social Studies)

Hello, welcome back to my blog. Today in social studies we are learning about the Olympics and we were finding out answers to the questions given. A while ago my teacher discussed the history of the Olympics and how it has developed over time. We also learnt about the ancient Olympic Games in Greece.

For today’s task, we explored the different sports that are in the Olympics and there were also videos of the particular sport we chose. Then we went on a slide which had the options, Ace, Pro, Legend and Titan. I chose legend and in that, I answered the questions given and added where the place was held one of the questions was where these places are held in the Olympics so I also did that and the last thing I did was write the rules for the sport I did.

Here are my tasks, click to view:

 

Altogether I thought today’s lesson on the Olympics was informative and interesting. It’s amazing to learn about the Paris 2024 Olympics and I can’t wait to watch I hope New Zealand wins. I can’t wait to learn more deeper into these topics and more about the Olympics in the coming classes.

Thanks for reading, Bye

First I had to watch a video called Music buddies, in this video there were 2 parrots dancing and the person who made the video edited it, watch the video below. Next the instructions said that LeopArtnik uses anthropomorphism to create his videos. Find out the meaning of anthropomorphism here. Also watch the video below.

In a google drawing insert a photo of your pet or ‘Search the web’ for an animal image. Use the drawing tools and add other objects to anthropomorphize your pet or animal, the examples are below to help you, and use remove.bg if you need to for your pet or animal. The examples are below.

SLJ — Laser Maze Challenge Kick Start — Activity 41

Hello, welcome back to my blog.

In today’s task I made my own laser maze challenge on google drawing. If you’re wondering why I am doing it on google drawing, it is because I had to plan it well it said to think about where I/you could build a laser maze in your garden.

If you want to create this activity, follow the steps and you can also plan your own laser maze challenge and also try it in your backyard too. But if you don’t want to create this activity jump to the bottom to see my design and the example design.

Steps :

Have you ever been in a Laser Maze?

First I had to watch a video of these spy actors get around lasers. But before that, have you seen any of the Mission Impossible movies? Because if you haven’t here is a video of how these spy actors get around lasers below.

Next I had to watch a video called kids in this laser maze, in this video it shows kids doing the laser maze, there is also a laser maze in Queenstown. Watch the kids in this laser maze video below.

Lastly for the ako/learn part, I looked at fun laser mazes outside and inside, which means I looked at some examples of kids doing there maze either outside in the backyard or inside in the hallway. Have a look at the photo below too.

Videos and photo

For the create part, I looked at a example of a laser maze made on google drawing. Next I had to think about where I/you could build a laser maze in your garden. Then I had to make a copy of this google draw template to draw my/your laser maze.

Use the line tool, add images to show where you will tie the string or wool and use remove.bg to remove any background of the image.

Lastly and finally for share, I had to download my google drawing as a png and share it on my blog.

I also had to answer — How fast do you think someone could do your laser maze?

Answer :

In the google drawing I wrote 4 minutes, but if they are speedy they can do 3 minutes or maybe 2. If they are slow I would say a 4 or 5.

Here is my Laser Maze Kick start activity

Green ones are example

Blue background with green grass is my one

SLJ — The Rainbow FIsh — Step it up — Activity 40

Hello, welcome back to my blog.

In today’s task I made my own rainbow fish. Do you know the book rainbow fish? If you do, then this task is about the rainbow fish. This task was pretty cool to make because I had to create my own rainbow fish using google drawing, I used shapes and different colour textures for the shapes.

Watch the video below. Next I watched another video showing how to make it, there are instructions already there in the google drawing.

For the create task, I had to make a copy of this template which will open a google drawing. Use the autoshapes or line tools to form the body of your/my fish. Search for coloured textures and crop the mask to cut out your fish body to create a Rainbow Fish collage. Also if you are attempting this task, your challenge is to : Add a seascape or other ocean creatures to your collage.

SLJ Cipher and Code — Step it up Activity 36

Hello, welcome back to another blog post.

In today’s task, I did cipher and code again but it was the step it up task which is going to be a bit hard, as you know that kick start means easy and step it up means a bit hard. In this task I learnt what Grid Code is, also I made my emoji cipher. Follow the steps I did and you can make the activity too, but before that read what Grid code means. There is also a explanation of what grid code means on the slide too.

Grid Code

The Ancient Greeks invented this secret code, so it is ancient! Instead of the letters, you write the two numbers showing where to find the letter in the grid. For example, the letter S is in the fourth row and the third column, so it is written as 43.

Steps :

Ako | Learn

The larn part was easy, it’s the same as the kick start. I just had to read the instructions on the slide. On the 2nd slide it shows the meaning of Encrypt, Decrypt, code and cipher, which was already there in the kick start activity so I didn’t have to read it.

Hanga | Create

For the create task I made a copy of the google slides and I had to decrypt the questions by using the codes and ciphers. At the end I had to create my own code using emojis and tell you my favourite summer learning journey activity so far using my emoji code.

Lastly for share, I had to publish my slide to the web by using the embed code to share it on my blog. Also I had to tell you why the SLJ activity was my favourite. There are so many activities I like, but it would be more fun if there were Nanogirl activities. But overall all the activities were very very very fun.
