How to make a straw rocket.

Today I made this DLO on how to make a straw rocket. After Friday we all know how to make a straw rocket and we had to show how to make one on a DLO. It is really fun and will have you glued to playing with this tiny little toy!

Godwit Multimodal: Group D.

Today for reading group D followed up on Godwits using Mrs Anderson's multi modal site. We had to independently read the Godwit text and ask questions in our groups. First we used our prior knowledge and recorded it on our DLO. Some types of transport were the same as 100 years ago like Cars, Planes, Boats and more. We had so much fun and we were all included in the group and could all contribute questions and answers.

Rockets at TC: Fair Test DLO.

On Friday Reon, Sylis and I created this DLO about rockets. We went to Tamaki college to make straw rockets and real rockets. We started by making a straw rocket out of a straw, sellotape and paper. It was so much fun. We recorded our results and averages on this DLO! Miss Ferguson 3D printed a plastic rocket called the "Carrot". It went so high we couldn't find where it landed!

Hockey DLO

Thanks to Amelia and Mel who ran our hockey sessions this term. I made this DLO about hockey and how the sessions went.

For my gold care awards I created this video explaining how to show a positive attitude in class. I had lots of fun creating this and hopefully it gives a great example.

Dear T1 Latham- 2016

LI: To reflect on personal goals set in term 1.

Dear Term 1 Latham,

I showed confidence and sportsmanship this year. I presented every week with confidence and could speak very clearly into the microphone! I reached my yearly goal of becoming a leader and helping people with computers and technology. I entered a movie competition and reached a great position. I can’t believe how fast this year has come and I am really excited to start college next year. Even if I didn’t reach 1st place in my goal, I am willing to try again next year with Edgewaters film club! I am really happy I reached 500 blog posts this year,

see you again sometime.

From Term 4 Latham- 2016

I wrote this letter to my term 1 self and explained how the year went this year and how I reached my yearly goal of becoming a manaiakalani leader.
