L.I To send messeges to other people.
The next activity today was coding the microbit to send a radio signal to another microbit. We had to make sure that both microbits were on the same group number so we didn't accidentally get a message from another group.
LI: To get faster at our times tables
Today we did a Super Fingers championship. We had to get into partners and then we had to verse another pair and whoever won the round would verse the next opponent and then it would keep going until you made it into the finals. It was really fun doing the championship, when I watched everyone play each other and I noticed that everyone was getting better and better at their times table. More than one or two people can play, you can play anyone they don’t have, to your family you can play against friends people you haven’t seen. You don’t always have to write Super Fingers, you can do Mathematics, Draft, or whatever you want to call it whatever you want.T
There were 24 people 12 draws 6 quarterfinals 3 semi-finals 2 wild cards 2 grand finals and 1 champion.
LI: To try and get the mBot to draw a star shape for Matariki
Matariki is the Maori new year celebration. It takes places each year when the cluster of stars known as Matariki are seen in our skies. The new year is a time for new beginnings and is a time to embrace tradition. To strengthen our connections to Matariki we had a choice of research activities. This DLO is about what the Maori people Harvested in Matariki. During Matariki poeple collected Kumara, Potato's and more. They used tool's like the Ko, Toki and some other ones as well. I enjoyed this activity because I learnt lots about the Matariki history.
LI: to celebrate matariki
This week for the matariki challenges we created 2 brochures which was an inside brochure and an outside bochure. For my inside brochure, me and my group explained about the matariki stories, how matariki was celebrated in the past and what food was harvest at the festival. For my outside bochure, we explained matariki and wrote fact about it too.
What I found a bit hard is that i didn't know any fact so I had to reaserch it.
