Te Whare Tapa Wha

Whare Tapa is about the four dimensions of Well Being

This is useful to understand because we've already got all the meanings of the four dimensions of wellbeing written down

I participated - okay

I contributed by doing some of it

Next time I will try to do more work than I already have done today

It was challenging to finish the house but the rest was not so hard to do because all you need to do is write the meaning of the four dimensions of well being

I coped with the challenge by getting help by my teammates

I worked okay with the others because I helped them finish all the work

Next time I will try to share some ideas and be helpful with the others

What have we been learning in DTE

This is what we have been learning since the beginning of the term

In the beginning of this term we have learnt how to make our own websites by just using other's websites. Few days later, we got told to play a learning game called Interland, it is a game where you can play games for learning there are four different types of levels. The next thing the teacher told us to do was to go to piktochart and create something about Ergonomics. The last thing we did was about Digital Bytes. We watched something about how the tech change the way we communicate. We then picked a question about it from the teacher's website, then we answered it in a google doc. 

I really enjoyed playing the game called interland because I learnt a lot of things about how to keep away from bullies and how to protect my internet by making a strong password. And I also learnt what to do once I get an message from a complete stranger and how to be cyber smart.

PingPong Ball Experiment

The purpose of this blog post is to demonstrate the scientific method. This is part of the end of topic assessment

Aim - The high it bounces defending on how high you drop it

Hypothesis - I expected it to go higher when you drop it from higher

Method:

1. Get all the equipment you need to do this

2. put all the equipment in their correct positions

3. drop the ball

4. find out how high it bounced

Results - graph - 

Discussion + Conclusion - It will bounce higher when you drop it from a high place because it falls faster when it is higher

Evaluation - We used a ruler to measure how high the ball bounced

Amber

Amber's the sun's colour
And amber is a beautiful colour

When I look at you I see the sun
I see the flaming burning amber within you as it burns and withers

You can see amber on the night sky 
with your clear naked eye
but it's too hard to see
because it's so shiny
and to think that amber is singing
and see an angel with shiny bright wings
You think that an angel taking you in heaven
But it's just an imagination

Amber is a colour that I always want to see

Just like a sun that shine in the sky

When I stare at the amber skies as the sun set, I thought of bright sap dripping off of dark tree bark.

Amber is the beautiful colour of the sun

Amber is a god of yellows and looks the best

My coat of arms/crest

What is a coat of arms?
The coat of arms is the distinctive heraldic, bearings or shield of person, family, corporation or country.

And it is a national symbol which donates an independent state in the form of a heraldic achievement

Jollibee, because it is my favourite restaurant

that it had feathers, fur or skin on the head of an animal on it.

What I found interesting about crests?
I found the designs pretty interesting

What do I want to learn about crests?
I want to know who made them.
