Rubric Reflection Term 2

I think that my Rubric was very good because I got 28 out of 30 out of everyone in my Extension group which I think is not very fair because they did as much work as I did.  But that does not mean I want to get 100 percent next time. Next time I want to get a 5 out of 5 in Key Competencies and a 5 out of 5 in planning research. Next time I will work harder.

Back in Da Day



This year in term 2 the year 5 and 6 extension students were chosen to make a mini production about technology. It was about how technology had changed over time because we were learning about technology. We had to make our own costumes, songs, backdrops as well as some music. The Production was the first ever made by an Extension group in the history of Pt England School. If you are wondering about what the production was like because you haven't watched it yet well here is a little sneak peek. The theme of the production was about technology and time travel. We did a lot of research on our chosen groups as well using google to find out the history on the things used to make a production. The reason we made this production was to share the bad influence that technology can have on us. For example, we loose our chance to socialise, we loose our chance to experience things some people don't experience and we loose our chance to have some quality time with our Family. So, if you think you want to go on our device think of things you could do in the backyard, front garden or even at the playground... don't just rely on your device!

Measurement and Multiplication

Walt: Solve Decimal Problems



Task Description: For this task I made a copy of the presentation and put it in my maths Folder. I knew my feet size and it is 22.5 cm so what would it be like 3 times bigger? Well we were put to the test. we had to go around measuring two objects of our choice with our feet. We had to multiply the size of our feet the number of times we stepped across it. Once we had finished we had to post it on our blog with a high standard that means we had to have a Title, a Walt, a Task Description, and Labels

space story

Jeff woke up one morning with a very loose hip, he popped it back in place. Then he boarded his rocket ship to go to outer space. Now his hip was very bothering but he didn’t care. Today he didn’t expect his adventure to be an exciting scare.

Jeff had a silver rocket and it was very neat. He sat down on his chair and scrunched up his feet. A voice boomed out of the computer. “10. 9. 8. 7. 6. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1. Blast off.” then he left his planet and then he had a cough.

“I’m heading to Mercury planet number 1 it is very hot.” said Jeff “should i land here professor Lotin Pot” Jeff was talking to professor Lotin Pot. He was mission controls planet expert and he new what to do. “No jeff that planet is not good for us it is poo poo” “ ok professor i’m movin’ on”

Jeff moved on to venus the second from the sun the hottest of them all. Venus was way hotter than Robert Wadlow was tall. “This one is the hottest of them all professor” said Jeff “jeff stay back and don't go any closer” said the professor “ we better get gone” “ok professor i’m movin’ on”

Look professor the third rock from the sun it's earth but i don’t need to go there i’m movin’ on

“The next one is mars” said jeff “the red planet the fourth one from the sun is it good professor Lotin pot ” the professor replied “so mysterious so exquisite is say we should not” “ok professor i’m  movin’ on”

“Whoa jupiter it's huge. But it's a gas planet so stepping on it will be a stooge.” said Jeff  “ you could fit in 1,300 earths in jupiter” Lotin pot was being a cocky professor. The professor said to go “ok professor i’m movin on”

Jeff went on to saturn. It's rings had a beautiful pattern. But the professor wasn’t so satisfied. “Jeff” said the professor “do you remember when i told saturn was good well i lied”  Jeff said “Ok professor i’m movin’ on”

Then jeff moved onto uranus it was lying on it's side. “I bet if he was alive he would orbit with pride. “ said Jeff  “It's different from the others ‘because it's  unique in color.” professor lotin pot wanted us to move on Jeff said  “Ok professor i’m movin’ on”

Jeff moved onto Neptune the planet made of ice gas. “Why it's not as big as that Jupiter mass.” Said Jeff. The professor had another idea. I don’t want to live on this planet i’d rather listen to Sia.” Jeff replied “ok professor i’m movin’ on.”

Uhhh professor lotin pot we have no more planets to explore. Does that mean earth is the perfect planet?“ the professor replied with a simple “yes” so jeff went back.

Paidea Seminar Reflection


On Thursday the 27th of July the extension students went to the Tusitala and had another Paideia seminar. It was really fun. We had to talk about technology and the effects is has made for us. The groups were technology designers and creators, children, schools, medical people, News reporters, the government and the cultural people. My partner was Naomi and we thought that for schools that if you were home schooled by a robot in the future has an advantage because you might learn more than what your teachers could teach you but it also had a disadvantage because you don’t socialise with anyone. I was surprised because Amelia was sassy and talked more so did Naomi. But i was even more surprised that i didn’t talk as much either
