A few weeks ago we started a DLO for Te Reo Moari. We were learning to pronounce Te Reo Moari words properly. We used Education Perfect, it is a website where you can learn different languages but we learnt about Te Reo Moari. We had to do the Moari alphabet, place names and greetings with a screencastify. I learnt how to pronounce things properly. I think I did pretty good at place names but in the future I am going to pronounce bigger and more difficult words.
Are you good at Moari?
This week we have been learning about smart surfing. We had to search it up on the internet. We had to learn about keywords to help us search for things easier on Google.
I learnt that if you type up: what do short tailed bats eat it takes all the information that includes what and gives that information to me so you have to break it down into keywords like short tailed bats diet because diet is a keyword like habitat. This was quite easy just I got stuck on the last slide. I got stuck because I didn’t quite understand.
Do you know any keywords that relate?
In Te Ngahere we have been doing work around coastal seas. We watched a coastal seas film on netflix. It was called Our Planet. It was phenomenal. We had to get at least 10 facts to put on our DLO’s. Here are some interesting facts: Today there are 20 million more sharks then there was a decade ago, In coastal seas jellyfish are taking over waters that were once dominated by fish. The Bottlenose dolphins make a mud circle around their prey. The dolphins jump up to eat the flying fish that jump into their mouths. There were some facts in there I have never heard of before. I think it was pretty hard to remember what they said in the film but when I had my facts it was easy to put them on to a DLO.
Have you ever watched Our Planet?
