Fish N Chips – Make it Work Project

Kia ora! This is a DLO video about our Make it Work Project, which is a new shelf for room 1. We first start with our intro, then our prototype, real project and last but not least! The final piece. In case you don’t know, Make it Work is a main theme for inquiry. All Team 5 must create a project that will help around our Team or school.

Our project is a new clean, fresh shelf for our class, room 1. We had to do our prototype first, because our teacher (Mr Moran) has to see if we are able to create our shelf and how it would basically look like. Firstly, we got cardboard, scissors, lots of tape and cutting. In our video, you’ll see Ema and Sapphire cutting the cardboard with scissors.

Then you’ll see us measuring our prototype, after all. We want it to be the perfect size and height (We didn’t even know how to tell the numbers in the measuring tape, so Tyson helped us). When we have finished measuring, we start building it. Taping the bottom and the top, sides and corners. Now we showed it to Mr Moran, he agreed that we are ready to build our REAL PROJECT. Watch this video if you want to see us quickly build our new shelf!! Please do enjoy it.

Slides Animation


This week my class were doing a Cybersmart Challenge which is about leaving a Smart Footprint basically. We had to do to a slides animation by using only 1, 2 or 3 characters in here. Mine is about astronauts capturing an alien, and they bring this alien back to the lab where the scientists can test him.  Anyways, hope you enjoy my dazzling and epic slide animation!^^
