Lorde
Today I was learning about Lorde the singer and finding facts about her.
I enjoyed finding out her real name.
I found it challenging to remember the letter E at the end of Lorde.
My digital learning object shows that I know what I'm doing and what I'm using.
Next time I would change the person I research.

Today I was learning how to use an app could We Video that we used to make a movie.
I enjoyed selecting the pictures that I wanted to use because some of them were pretty cringe.
I found it challenging to try not to make my video would not be long.
My digital learning object shows I know how to use my devise and how to use We Video.
Next time I would change nothing.

The Gisborne SIX60 Conset
One Saturday me and my family went to the beach to see SIX60's new album they shared with Gisborne. I'm one of those people that I just really love music and singing. Do you like music and singing? Do you know who SIX60 are? Whats your favourite music?
I could name all of SIX60's songs if I really wanted to thats how much I love music. On Thursdays in class room four have a incredible teacher Mrs Allan who takes half of the school for singing. I'm one of the best lead and harmony girls.
At the SIX60 conset people were going wild and people were also going to their cars with their mates and drinking. It was great I could of lissened to them sing for hours and hours. But sadly they were only there to stay to sing their new album since Gisborne won the voting on where they would be. At the end there was a massive line with a coulpe of thousand people in the line paying $20 to get a picture or something signed.
By the way I've been listening to SIX60 this whole time I wrote this story.
SIX60's full playlist . . .

- Don't forget your roots
- Rivers
- Don't give up
- Someone to be around
- Up there
- Closer

Is This Three Headed Dog Real Or Fake?
Today I was learning how to make something look real when it's really fake using lot's of different photos that I took.
I enjoyed finding the photos on explore and using Remove Background.
I found it challenging to find a png photo until I realised I could just use Remove Background.
My digital learning object shows that I know how to use these apps and that I understand what I'm doing
Next time I would change my whole picture.

What Is Social Media
Today I was learning how to use remove background, remembering to smurf my set of slides and also using camera.
I enjoyed using camera and taking the photos.
I found it challenging to put my phone behind my hand. Then I thought I could take two photos one of me and one of my hand. It Worked!
My digital learning object shows I know what I'm doing and how I use all of these apps.
Next time I would change how I was position.

5 Senses Writing
5 Senses Writing
I feel . . . the sharp, pointy thistles clawing into my leg.
I hear . . . turkeys gobbling loudly in my ear.
I taste . . . a big gust of a strong, gnarly wind.
I smell . . . the bright purple lavender bushes, while sneaking around them.
I see . . . a set of antlers pocking in the distance up in the bushy hills.
WHERE AM I ??

I’m hunting out on the farm.

Maths 2 digit multiplication
24/9/2019 I figured out how to do 2 digit multiplication in maths. All the days before the 24th I was clueless on how to do it. Mrs Bennett could polygons my maths group down to the white table to help us with our book work and it was 2 digit multiplication. As Mrs Bennett was explaining all I could think was this is going to be so hard but really when I went back to my table I whizzed through the questions just like that. Lot's of the other kids got the same answer and Mrs Bennett said well I got a different answer and I went running over to the other table and said "WHAT NUMBER WAS THAT?"
And they said that it was number 6 then I told them what my answer was for number 6 and I got the same answer as Mrs Bennett. She was so impressed with me because she thought that she was wrong but when she heard that I had said the same answer as her she said give me a high five so I did. I was so happy after that I didn't want maths to end. The next day before the bell went I carried on with my maths then the bell rang and Mrs Bennett said that we aren't doing maths first.
I was devastated. Mrs Bennett saw my face and said did you want to carry on with the 2 digit multiplication? Do you like doing it? I nodded and said yes. But that's my story of how I learnt how to do 2 digit multiplication. What's your story?
