William Pike

Last week in Te Ngahere we all learnt about William Pike. We researched information about him and found out how he relates to a story we read earlier on called the rep. Also, we watched a live stream if William Pike. He was talking about his trip in Antarctica. It was really interesting to learn about his trip and all the different things he saw. William Pike even climbed up Mount Scott! That is very high. William Pike was a fun person to research and we all learnt a lot.

Shattering Breakthough

Last week in Te Ngahere for reading, my group answered a variety of questions for a story called ‘A Shattering Breakthrough.’ The story was about the development of safety glass. After reading the story we answered some comprehension questions about the story. The questions were really challenging but in the end we were able to work them out.

4 Shot Movie

Last week, Te Ngahere we made 4 shot mini movies. A 4 shot movie is a mini movie with all four shots, which are: Establishing shot, long shot, medium shot and close up. We were in groups of 4 or 5 and made a storyboard for our mini movie. My groups story was about caring and looking out for our friends. It was a good opportunity to learn how to work as a team and it was also really enjoyable. Movie
