Student Summit Through Google MEET

 Hello People, Again Today I am blogging about something that you may know about.
Student Summit, Student Summit happens every year. I remember that I went last year and it was so much fun. But this year I learnt some really cool things like how to use scratch, peardeck. There was 4 different sessions today with multiple choices of things to do in them. Since we are in level two as some of u should know. Well ya so since there is 265 children we are not allowed to go since it is over 100 people. We had to do it through google MEET. =)

The thing I liked the best out of all the sessions was Miro. I thought that Miro would be very helpful in class time and when I am trying to work things out or even just for fun drawing. So here is an example of how I think that I would use this in future.



I would probably use some of these different layout styles. 
Here is the recording of the Miro session.
This is the end of my blog now if you have any questions put them in the comments below.
Have you been to the student summit?
If you did, did you enjoy it?
Did you learn anything?
BYE see u next time.
=)

I Have A Dream...

 Hello Bloggers, I'm Back today I am blogging about speeches. When I heard that we are writing speeches again. I freaked out, I am not the type of person that enjoys doing speeches. But anyway the class and I have sorta done a self portrait of ourselves and put 5 things from goal setting and Mental Toughness Tool kit. I will put my DLO below for you to see. 

Here is my Dream for how the speeches go... I hope that my speech is good I hope that I don't speak too fast and or start muttering.

While I was creating this drawing I thought about what my speech topic might be. The hardest part for me during speeches is going to be performing my speech.The easiest part is going to be learning the speech off by heart. I chose these tips for myself because I am really nervous for my speeches.

Have you ever created a speech and presented it before? How did it go? Did you feel nervous like me?

If you are writing a comment on this blog, you could choose to use these sentence starters - 

    POSITIVE - I enjoyed the part when...

    THOUGHTFUL - Did you think about... HELPFUL - Why did...

    Here is a Comment that show the things above.

    Hello .......,  Its Me Bridget. I like the way you have made a DLO and asked questions at the end. I Like the way you have introduced it well and added the link to the post. I might have a go at the Slide carnival. Is the Slide carnival a thing where you create a slide? Maybe Next time you could check that all the sentences have the right punctuation. But other then that...
    Good Job
    Bridget.

    What is Resilience?

    What is Resilience?

    First I will give you a quote on Resilience and after that then a video of what resilience is and that is going to be in the DLO.

    Now time for my DLO


    This is the END of the blog.

    Narrative

    Hello Bloggers, 
    👍😜👍
    Its me again today I am blogging about my Narrative, that I wrote today.
    The writing prompt I choose today was... "Write about an animal that causes a huge problem.
    If you think that there is something missing like any punctuation or words that don't make sense be sure to tell me that in the comments. 
    Here is the beginning of my Narrative.

    Good night Charlie. Said John. Charlie the parrot replied with a very happy good night. Why are you so happy? Said John. No reason replied Charlie. John moved onto the next cage. This cage has Gorillas. These gorillas are very friendly. The gorilla keeper sometimes has cuddles with them if they are sad or even if they just want a cuddle. John kept on practically walking the whole zoo. Just checking that their cages were locked. We don't want them escaping. That would just be crazy if all the animals were running around the zoo. Finally John had checked all the cages where locked.

    Just as John was walking towards the office too grab his bag too go home he heard a big thump. John turned too faced where that sound came from. John quickly ran back too scan the cages for anything. Charlie's cage door was wide open as well as the gorilla's cage. John saw that the gorillas were running next too the flying parrot. CHARLIE!!! John shouted. Suddenly John realised Charlie had a stick that was shaped as a key. That must have been why Charlie was so happy. 

    John ran back inside and called for backup.
    ...
    I haven't quite finished it but anyway it is just the begginning

    What do you think is going to happen next? 
    Did you enjoy my Narrative?
    Did you spot anything that you don't think was quite accurate? 
    Bye for now until my next post.
