This term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about cultural stories and the big question was;
What is the significance in the 21st Century of our Cultural stories?First we brainstormed what culture is
and came up with lots of ideas. Culture is……
When you learn different Cultures from different countries.

Then we thought about our own culture and talked to our parents about our traditions and heritage.
I wrote a post about my family and things we like to do.In Literacy we read and discussed myths and
legends from around the world then we concentrated on
Maori legends. I read….(The legend of Robin Hood ) We made a performance about the story Battle of the Mountains.
Some students wrote the script, some students took on the job of making all the artwork,
some worked
hard on organising the music and others took on the role of bringing the story alive with dance and
drama.
Photo: Reflection: For our production I contributed by... Art, Making a poster, coloured the un finish
koh phi phi patters and cutting them out

I think the show might impact on others by... making them be happy and also they might want to talk a
bout more Maori culture

What I learned about working with others was... its better working as a team then by yourself you can get
ideas and you can get it done quicker

Swimming

Hi welcome back to another blog post. 2 weeks ago my school did swimming lessons. We hopped in the red bus and drove to Graham Condon. We had to do a test to find out what group we were going in. So we had to jump in the pool one at a time and start doing freestyle. A man told me to go in lane 6  which means I was in the top group With some of my friends. I was very happy with what I got put in. Then a man came in and hopped in the pool and intruded him self and his name was Stephan. He was a nice man. Then the next couple of days we did life saving. It was really fun. Here are some pictures of us jumping in the pool and going in the boat.

PBL showcase

Hi!
Last week me and my buddy Hannah K shared our PBL showcase to out parents. We did a 1 news report on Screencastify. Our feedback was really good. Our question for our PBL was how does sweet food affect our learning. We got really interesting answers on why we should eat healthy food. Hannah and I came up with an idea that we couldn't eat sweet food for a week. It was kinda hard but we found out that we focused a lot better and it helped us a lot.
