This is our last activity on Godwits for the Yr7's. Mrs Anderson found a fun website for an infographic. We had make an infographic on Godwits trip to Alaska. We had to include some facts aswell. It looks like it takes very little time, actually it takes a while putting objects to where you want it but, it was worth it because it was find making it.
I am a Year 8 student at Panmure Bridge School in Auckland, NZ. I am in Learning Space 2 and my teachers are Mrs Anderson, and Ms Kirkpatrick.

Manaiakalani Film Festival
Today Panmure Bridge School went to Sylvia Park watch the Manaiakalani films. Our school (Panmure Bridge School) had the whole of the left hand side. Most of the Yr7 and 8's got to sit on the top comfortable seats. Some Yr 5 and 6's got to sit at the top as well. The top seats were very comfortable. My favourite videos were Tamaki primary's films because they were very funny. When we were heading back to school we saw a Police chase. Everyone was looking. Three people were running from the police. We only saw one person get caught, the cop handcuffed him so fast. We're not sure if the others got caught. Here is a link to the films - https://sites.google.com/a/ptengland.school.nz/film-festival-2011/view-films/2016-Films
Hyperbole
For writing the whole class worked on hyperbole's. Hyperbole's is a sentence that has exaggeration. E.G I have a million things to do. We all had two sheets. The first sheet was highlight the hyperbole's pink and the non hyperbole's blue. I only one wrong. The second sheet was a little harder, we had to fill in the lines. E.G I am so ______ I could eat a _____. The answer to that would be hungry and horse. We also had to highlight the similes blue. The last part we had to do was write a paragraph with as much hyperbole's we could write. this is my paragraph
Ben was at home waiting for his parents to come back from shopping. “Grandma, Mum and Dad are taking one billion years to go shopping” Ben said. “Just wait patiently Ben” Grandma replied. For time to go faster Ben went on his ipad and played his games. He had been using his finger so much, his fingers would lose one billion KG’s. Ben remembered he had homework. Ben finished his homework and said to his grandma “I finally finished my homework, I took forever. Ben looked out the wind and saw a very good looking car, it looked like it would cost over one quintillion dollars. He realised that it was his parent’s new car. Ben’s Dad let Ben go in the car and see how fast it can go. Ben said to his dad it went so fast that it went faster than the speed of light and, we would have time traveled if, we went any faster.

Mesearment Flight
Today for maths we continued with our paper planes. We had to find out who's plane went the furthest in our groups. Tai's one went the furthest. We then had make the exact same plane of the plane that went the furtest. After that we had to make our logo. At the end we had to choose who could throw the plane the furthest in your group. Tai threw it the furthest. At the end the class had a competition to see who's plane goes the furthest. Thomas's one went the furthest. At the end we opened the windows and threw the planes once more and, there were better results.

Paper Planes
Yesterday LS2 were paper planes. Mrs Anderson put us into groups and we had to work collaboratively. We were watching video tutorials to make our paper planes, we were trailing to make our different planes. I had trouble making my paper plane so, Sebastian helped me out. After we finished making our planes we went outside and we had a competition on who's plane can go the furtherest. We measured it by feet. Everyone was having fun.

Godwits Migration
This is a DLO about Godwits and their migration. I worked with Nazella and Calvin. Our topic is about flight and, Yr7's are researching the Godwit. First we had to make a digital sketchnote to get our answers. The questions were long and, if we searched up the whole question we wouldn't get any answers. We had to use our smart searching skills to find our information. After we finished our digital sketchnote we had to make a DLO with all, our answers. There are some interesting facts there.
