Today for Matariki, we had to make a pixel art that involves the 9 Matariki stars (Matariki, Tupuārangi, Waipuna-ā-Rangi, Waitī, Tupuānuku, Ururangi, Waitā, Pōhutukawa and Hiwa-i-te-Rangi.)
I made a landscape with a tree, a moon and the 9 stars of Matariki. We have been learning lots about Matariki and this was a nice idea to make a pixel art about matariki.
This week in Technology, I have been doing digi-tech (digital technology.) In digi-tech, I have been learning how to code games. There is this one website we use most regularly it’s called Cospaces. We have been using it to create our own games and use the coding skills to try make it almost like a parkour game or more. We have learnt that we need to make the game not too easy, not too hard, but just the perfect amount of easy and a bit of hard so it is actually fun.
This year we are using a website called eSmart on eSmart there are modules about how to balance your technology screen time, how to be sensible and online Cybersmart and Cybersafety about kindness, each module has about 60 questions in them and they also have some videos to watch. So far I have learnt ways to stop CyberBullying. I also learnt how to balance your technology time.
