Check out our QUALITY BLOG COMMENTS - SCREENCAST

In cybersmart we have been looking at blogs and adding quality blog comments.

We know that a quality blog comment must be POSITIVE, THOUGHTFUL & HELPFUL.

A quality comment must have a greeting, a compliment, feedback and a question if you have one.

We have been drafting our own comments and publishing them on people’s blog posts.

We have used screencastify to share our comments and explain how they are POSITIVE, THOUGHTFUL & HELPFUL.

Here are some of our screencasts.

Our community cirlces

After our PADLET work on COMMUNITY, we did a brainstorm on what community groups we belong to. Have a look at what we did... 

What is a community?

This term our Inquiry is called MY PART IN THE COMMUNITY. We did some learning about what a community is and what community groups we belong to. Check out our PADLET and some of our communities that we belong to. 

Our rubbish catchers

Last week we actually went down to Tahuna Torea and used our Water Rubbish Catchers to CATCH SOME RUBBISH! We've spent some time reflecting on our inventions...but for now, check out our trip down to the water 

 

Check out our WATER RUBBISH CLEANERS

We've buddied up with our friends in Room 3. We've been learning about rodents and streams. We made a visit to the stream in Glen Innes and was a part of THE RIVER TALKS that happened earlier in the month. 

When we returned, we remembered the saying they shared with us 

'I AM THE RIVER. THE RIVER IS ME!'

'KO AU TE AWA, KO TE AWA AHAU!'

We were disappointed that our river was paru, dirty and yuck. We wanted to do something about that so we designed some cleaners to help us keep our waters clean. 

Here are some pictures...but be sure to come back because we've got more to add!
