Transformers (term 2 immersion assembly)

Our Pt England way is to always kick start the term with an immersion assembly. Our immersion assembly today was no different to our other immersion assembly, our senior management team started us off by introducing our theme for the term: transformers – which is about drama.

Before team 1 Introduced their movie, Senior management dressed up as superheroes. Mrs Nua was Dressed up as Elastigirl from The incrdibles, Mr Somerville dressed up as spiderman, Mr Jacobsen dressed up as a soldier and Mr Burt dressed up as a pharaoh.

Team 3 was one of my favorites because it was based off of Matilda the musical. They re created the scene where the little boy ate a slice of chocolate cake, and was forced to eat a whole entire chocolate cake infront of his whole class.

Team 5 was another one of my Favorite skit as well, Their Skit was about the true meaning of Cinderella, It was really gory, Mr Wiseman had told us. In my opinion it was really funny, until Mr wiseman said that the prince chopped of the ugly step sisters heads off. But at the end of the story there was a plot twist. The plot twist was Mr wiseman and Cinderella are married and lived happily ever after.

WALT: how can I use the elements of Drama (EOD) to express myself.

Pepeha Animation DLO term 1

DLO 

 

Hello Everyone! This is my DLO animation for term 1! This term our DLO (digital Learning Object) Was about our Pepeha. First we had to do some Whakapapa slides with our Te Reo teacher Whaea saf then we had to animate our DLO onto Photopea or google slides, I chose to do mine on Google slides because I find it more easier to animate on google slides rather than Photopea. this terms DLO was easy but not a quick task because you have to ask your parents for information about your Maunga, Awa, Moana, Waka, Iwi, Marae, your Grandparents name, your parents names, your teacher, your age, and the school you go to. But overall finding out information about my family was easy.

Highlights

My highlight for this task was getting it completed and blogged before my teacher marks it, Another highlight of mine was animating the plane, people, and cars, I find animating fun and interesting to do especially on google slides and photopea. ANOTHER highlight of mine was finding the images for these slides (sorry if their blurry). I found it fun because I got to chose all the pictures that were going to be put inside of these slides.

Lowlight

And my lowlight was not getting to record myself saying my mihi while the slides were playing. Another lowlight of mine was not being able to animate on photopea, I started animating on photopea but then gave up because I found out that animating on photopea was going to take more time then the time my teacher marks my DLO but I guess animating on google slides was more easier and a simpler way of animating.

Ending

Thank you all for watching my DLO animation and reading my Task description about my DLO. I hope you guys enjoyed it. Have a great day or have a great night GOODBYE!!!
