Digital Postcard!

Today in our Manaiakalani session we learnt what's real and what's fake, We also learnt how to be safe online and how to avoid scams, We also created a digital postcard! We learnt that there must be a padlock in the URL.

I enjoyed choosing my background cause it was interesting to think about all of the interesting ideas I had in my head.

I found it challenging to get my whole body into the photo because I was to big so we had to do a lot of adjustments to get the right photo that would fit the shot.

I found it easy to make a paragraph about my "Trip" to the skate park! I found it easy because I already knew my idea while Mrs Williams was talking to us about these postcards.

Next time I will make my "trip" a more interesting part, So the paragraph I wrote is more interesting then my first one!

10 Things That Make A Good Recount!

 Today in our writing session Addison(My Writing Buddy) and I made a google doc, We discovered and wrote 10 words that make a good recount!!

My learning goal for the remainder of term 4 is to cooperate with my buddy better,  talk to my buddy more so we know how each other work and would like to work so we are more comfortable to work together.

In a recount I need to use rich words in my paragraphs more often so it is interesting for the reader so he/she would like to carry on reading an interesting recount not a boring one and stop reading.
