Careers Expo.

For the past 9 weeks we have been working on careers. For my career i want to be an Architect. We did a 78 question quiz to narrow down our career so eventually it would be one. We had to make something to show the year 6s. It could be anything with information to show them and something that would catch their attention. My strength organizer helped me by being organized for the expo and always having my work ready. Future thinker helped me by thinking about what would interest the people and what it would be like at the expo. Me and Matt made word finds to hand out at the expo so people could also have something to do in their spare time. Mine had words related to architect. Matt's had words related to Psychiatrist. Sharon made 20 copies of each of ours so we could hand lots of them out.

When all of the year 6s came in there were lots more of them than i thought there would be. When the first people came over I showed them my slide show and the word finds. I was very surprised, they took one. When the expo was finished I looked at the pile of word finds and they had all gone. I was so happy because i didn't know what I would have done if there were some left.

New Italian Milo.

Week 7/8 Reflection.

For week 7 we have been doing lots of careers work. For mine I have been working on my slide show. I have had to add more writing on some of the information. I also made a word find for when the year 6's come in for our careers expo. It is all about architect and it has words that are related to an architect. I also made better backgrounds for the slides to make them more interesting.


For Milo's we have made ours about languages. Our main language is Italian because we find that language most interesting. We might end up changing the language to a different one because the teacher wants us to plan a trip but there are no Italian places in Christchurch. I thought that we could get an Italian teacher to come in and teach the class Italian. We might do Chinese or Japanese because there would be a lot of Chinese places in Christchurch.


For our rotation task with Nogo we had to make a video introducing our self in the language we are working most on. We also worked on our slide show making it more interesting. For drama we played look down look up and we played fortunately unfortunately. After all of that we did a thing called readers theater where we have to do a play thing. for Sharon's task we had to do availll. It is when we watch a movie and when someone says a word like your you have to write down the word they said after it. We were watching tintin the secret of the unicorn. We don`t watch the whole movie only about 20-30 minutes of it.

Week 5 Reflection

For week 5 tech we do cooking first. We made blueberry muffins. We have made apple and cinnamon before but these sounded better. First we had to watch the teacher do it and then she said we need to copy what she did. After we watched her we needed to get our stuff. When we got the plates, bowls and cutlery we had to get the ingredients. we had to put flour, baking powder and sugar in a bowl. we mixed it a bit and then we had to get the eggs and milk into a bowl. whisk it and then add blueberries. we added the liquids into the other bowl and slowly stirred it. You are not supposed to mix it a lot so we only had to make it just stirred in. We put them in the oven so we had to do the dishes while they baked. When they were out mine actually looked good. I was surprised because last time we made them I thought mine were too thick.

Now for our second task is electronics. I am making a target game to shoot Nerf darts at. I have made a circuit board because when you hit the middle it will make a noise. This time I had to print out a picture to put on my board. Mine is one of Bart Simpson because my brother likes The Simpsons.
