Cyber Smart Explanation

This week Class 7 Literacy have been writing an explanation about Mr Burt's 'Use my brain, Use my heart, I'm going to be Cybersmart' korero. Here is Lorenzo's explanation.

Use my brain, Use my heart, I'm going to be Cybersmart !

Use my brain, use my heart, I'm going to be cyber smart is a korero. It is to help people that are being dodgy during learning time and doing the wrong thing like playing music when your not suppose too.

Use my brain means think twice about what you’re doing, what is going to happen and make your decision if you want to do the wrong thing or the right thing. Use your brain like it is something that you can control.

Use my heart means that if you're doing a bad thing and feeling like someone is looking at you, and is going to tell on someone. Using my heart is using the way you feel in the right direction instead of the wrong direction.

Being cyber smart means that you think about the footprint that you’re leaving behind. For example when you go to play an online game, you do not put down other people playing otherwise you might get reported, for putting down other players.

How this korero can help you, is that it helps you stop going the wrong way instead of the right way, which means listen to your brain, listen to your feelings and leave a smart footprint. Go the right way instead of the wrong way!

Name and Number

Class 7 Maths Group- Comment on this post to share how you solved the problem. Remember to talk about the strategy you used not just the answer.

Problem Solving

In Class 7 Maths we have been problem solving. Here is Ava's solution.

I worked that  there were 3 pigs and 8 ducks.

I first did 11 circles and then I put 2 legs on them and that made 22 legs on them.

I knew that pigs had 4 legs so I had to add 2 more legs to 3 circles.

Which made 28. 

Made Up Commonwealth Sport Explanation

Mutton Birding

This week the Kauri have been reading a book about Muttonbirding. They did some research to find out how you get mutton birding rights and then predicted what would happen overtime with mutton birding. Here is Lorenzo's post.

In reading my reading group have been reading a book called on the island. it is about a family going mutton birding and only Maori people can hunt them you can stay for two months but you are only aloud to hunt five mutton birds.

For our reading activity we had to do what its like in 200 years in the past present and the future and imagine what we had to use.

Super rugby sevens

What is Super rugby sevens?

Rugby sevens, also known as seven-a-side, Sevens or VIIs, is a variant of rugby union which teams are made up of seven players, instead of the usual 15, with shorter matches.

What a equipment do you need?

How do you play?

Rugby sevens or Seven-a-side rugby as it used to be called or 7s rugby or rugby 7s !!! has become very popular over the years.

The game of Sevens is played in festival-like, knock-out type, fun-filled competitions rather than home and away fixtures like normal rugby.

Only 7 go on to the field and 7 is on the side line.
