This week for Inquiry, we learned what we all do to honor the Treaty of Waitangi. Even I didn’t know how much I do everyday to honor the Treaty of Waitangi. So I created this DLO to show what you can do to honor the Treaty of Waitangi.
For this week of writing, I have learnt about the terrible story of Anne Frank and her life in the annex.
I first needed to learn about what the annex was, who was Anne Frank, and why was she so important? My teacher had given us a website that gave us a visual website of the annex. It was a small little back house that fit 7 people but was probaly meant for about 2, 3 max. It was behind a business office that was covered in Nazi soilders.
I read the information that was connected to each object. I found out that That Anne Frank wa to scead to get a glass of wate
For todays activity we made our thoughts on what happend on the signing of the treaty. We had to use speech bubbles and had to expect something they might have did while they were signing the treaty.
You might learn basic things like turning devices on and off, how the internet works, and maybe even some simple coding or creating projects with technology. Basically, it’s the start of getting comfortable with all kinds of tech tools and understanding how they help us every day our teacher named miss Roy she told us how to work a swing marching and we had to do a recap.

For this years SUmmer Learning Journey LS2 created facts about centipedes. these questions were just about how much legs they have, how much speieces there are and also some maths questions.
For this step it up task we had to make a spider web made out of paper with the patterns and our cutting skills, we had to fold it and cut it in specific ways to make the spider web pattern appear. One fact I learnt about spider webs, they are both made out of strong protein fibers stronger than steel by weight.
For this activity we neeeded to draw our own spider webs and explaing how spiders make there spiders webs. First we watched a video article called “Spider Webs: Nature’s Tiny Masterpieces”. Then we needed to research and learn how spiders make webs:
Making liquid silk inside their body.
Pushing that liquid out through tiny holes (spinnerets) on their rear end.
The silk instantly hardens into a thread when it hits the air.
They use their legs to shape the threads into a web.
For this Summer Learning Journey activity we needed to create a animal (Hybrid) using our creativity and imaginary, our animal is a hybrid of a chameleon, tortoise, leopard and elephant and we’ve named it Lepeteleon.
The abilities from the leopard grants speed up to 58 km per hour, a shell from a Tortoise giving it a strong armor for protection. Also the powers to camouflage with it environment/surroundings from the chameleon and lastly the strong legs from a elephant.
