Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus

LI : To carry out a guided research process

This task, our challenge was to research the Pacific Northwest Tree Octopus. Throughout the process, we investigated questions like, “How do they move through the trees?” and uncovered some fascinating details about thePacific Northwest Tree Octopus.

Social Influence

LI : To evaluate peer pressure, digital interactions and social influences

We unpacked how in a world of followers and influencers, how we can stay the ‘Navigator’ of our own lives.

We enjoyed working on this project because it proves that people don’t need to participate in things that they don’t want to do for their friends and epescially when others peer pressures you to do something your not combfortable with. It dosen’t matter do what you feel like.

 

How we honour the Treaty of Waitangi

LI : How to show our respect towards the Maori Culture and the Treaty

For this weeks task LS2 was challenged to make a DLO to show how we honour the Treaty and the Maori culture. We worked in pairs and wrote all the stuff we acknowledge and our perspective on why we respect it , I enjoy doing this task because I can show why the Maori culture should be respected equally the same as other countries.

Vision Board 2026

Day , Month Year

LI: To understand how time moves

For Inquiry , LS2 learnt about how time moves.

We partnered up with a group of 3 and create a AI video of how the earth rotates around the circle and while it rotates the sun shines bright on half of the earth and the dark galaxy is on the other half, so it spins around both sides it take 24 hours for the earth to rotate around the whole circle. This video shows what the earth does while it rotates around.

We enjoyed making this video because we learnt what it actually looks like and how long it takes for it to complete the circle.

 

Ancient Timekeeping

LI: To explore how our ancestors measured time

Ancient Times

For Inquiry , LS2 was learning about how our ancestors keeped track of time back in the days.

We partners up with a group of 3 and research about each different clocks they used to tell time ( Hourglass , Clepsydra and Sundial)

each person has one for those clocks and the research about them , we create a Google slides or Google drawing to show each time clock.

AI Movie

LI : To use our knowledge about dinosaurs in a creative ways

We were given 2 create challenges to help us show our learning in creative and fun ways.

Create Challenge 1:

Use ADOBE Express to generate an image about each dinosaur on your completed sheet. You can not use their name – only the facts you have gathered.

Create Challenge 2:

Use https://hailuoai.video to create AI films showing 3 of your dinosaurs in their natural habitat.

I enjoyed these challenges because it’s so fun to see the dinosaurs doing what they normally do and very interesting to learn about the Stegosaurus.

Trip to Auckland War Memorial Museum

LI : Panmure Bridge School Visited The Auckland Museum

We went to the museum to finish off our topic of Volcanoes.  Classroom challenges – We had 30 seconds to decide what to pack if there was a volcanic eruption near us. Our group had to make wise choices so they could stay safe in the event they were evacuated. The objects we pick to put in the backpack is : backpack , toys , can of food , hole punch , torch , can opener , pan , gloves , cat , muesli bar , cat food , goggles , bottle of water , tea towel , first aid kit , mask and colouring book. Our group had to make wise choices so they could stay safe in the event they were evacuated. One interesting fact that I learnt from walking around the galleries is that I saw all the places the Maori Patallion fought against countries and Another interesting fact I learnt about the session we had about Volcanoes is that every volcano in Auckland is extinct except for Rangitoto.

 

 

 

 

Paired Challange

LI: to research questions about your dinosaur including their habitat, diet, predators, and protection.

Our challenge was to create a DLO that tells others about the dinosaur we found when we excavated our dinosaur eggs. My partner and I found the skeleton of a Stegosaurus what I’d found out is that a Stegosaurus has a tiny brain. Something I found interesting was that a stegosaurus is 4 meters and 13 feet tall.
