News Changes

We are trying some changes to our news format.
We are using the digital camera so that we can work on our filming skills as well as our presentation skills. We need to consider new things such as backgrounds and camera angles. Here is out first attempt at our news programme without the webcam.

Reflections:

Wiremu and Logan. Our voices were clear. We needed to manage ourselves better so that it made more sense.

Sarah and Julia. We wrote a good story. We need to speak louder.

Mele and Mereana. We think we need to speak louder. It was sad that there were people not listening propery in the background.

Siaga and Emma. Siaga had a good loud voice. We both need to look at the camera.

Water Slides - Team Building

Mrs Jorgensen set us a challenge.

We had to construct a miniture water-slide. We tested it with a marble. We had to make sure that the marble made it to the bottom without falling off the side.
We had to use many of our Key Competencies to do this. For example we had to "Manage Ourselves", "Participate and Contribute", Use our "Thinking Skills" and "Relate to Others"
