Are you using the internet right?

For the past few weeks for cybersmart we have been learning about internet safety and how to be safe on the internet. I was working with Wajihah and Myka for this project. The first thing we did was make a plan on what we were using, how many lessons it would take, the materials, the message, and how the end product would look like. Next we created the powtoon and started finalising the slideshow. Finally we recorded our voices and added them in. We then edited the slideshow and posted it to the internet for everyone to see.



This is the final product Wajihah, Myka & I made. I hope you enjoyed our powtoon and stay safe on the internet

I think we did really well because we finished it really quickly and added a lot of information

All the photos I used were from Powtoon as well as the slideshow. Here is the link to Powtoon, It's a really fun website and is easy for any ages.

Have you learned anything useful today by watching this powtoon?

Homework Poem

This term for homework 7ld have been doing our homework for sustainability. One of the challenges were that we had to make a couplet about sustainability, for the task we had to make it a couplet and put it on a slideshow, then we had decorate it to make the standards of our rubric.

This whole slideshow took me about three days to complete and decorate. I am really proud of this because the couplet took me four hours and I did it by myself with no ones help. Normally I would need a lot of inspiration but this time I just needed to look at some words and I knew what to do.

So far I think I have completed the task very well and think that Whaea Mel does too. I have a little bit to fix up but then it will be complete. I hope you like my couplet and I hope to post more poems. tell me what you think of my slideshow in the comment and I will try to reply to your questions.

Gif Making.

A few weeks ago Whaea Mel showed us a website called Giphy. Giphy is a website that lets you make Gifs like this one. I felt like Giphy was hard to use and it was. I had to use videos instead of photo's to make my gif so I went on another website.

A gif is a animated video like photo that can explain something or just is for fun. When I was making my first gif I needed help so I looked if there were any videos on how to make a gif. I looked on some blogs until I found a useful video to help me. It also helped because this person was in my class. The first thing I did was make a slide show for the gifs I would be making. Then I spelled the words hello as my first gif. After I made some more slides then deleted the words until it was the letter I wanted it to be. I did that until I finished the words 'hello'. I downloaded them with the file and download as feature. I then went on this website called Animated Gif Maker and started to put my downloaded images down to make the Gif. After that I ordered them the way I wanted it to be and made the Gif by clicking 'create animation.' here are a few of the Gifs I made in a few minutes.

Reflection:

Overall I think that making Gifs are fun. They do take time but once you are done you will feel proud of what you have done. I think with time I could be an expert on Gifs and teach everyone else in my class how to make gifs. If you want to learn how to make gifs then the links above will help you. Please comment what you think about this site and what you think about my gifs I made.

We had to collect infomation from 4 sources, A stuff article, A Youtube video, A history page about the Bledisloe Cup, and Wikipedia. When we collected the infomation we got a choice to work with a partner or alone. I chose to work with a partner, which was Kiesha. It took me two weeks to make this presentation so I present this to you. I Hope you enjoy!
