Copy right is when you don’t have the right to copy off someone, for example when you are using someone’s picture and dont give them credits, it doesn’t only count with pictures it goes the same with games, songs, videos and more, but Attribution is when you give credits to the author for the piece they made therefore you have the right to use it and when people take a look at your work they will see who and where you got that piece of work from.

I like this task as I can share and tell more people about copyright so they dont make any mistakes in the future.

LI: To read food labels and understand what they tell us

This week’s inquiry is about nutrition labels and how we read them. Our task was to make a poster that tells us how to read a nutrition label and how much of the portion should it have in a meal to be a healthy diet. We had to choose between 9 cereals that was the most healthiest by reading the nutrition label individually and I chose weet-Bix because from all the other cereals weet-Bixs had less sugar and a good amount of protein.
I found this activity Interesing because I liked learning about food lables and I found seeing what cereal was the healthiest and best to eat if on a healthy diet interesting.

LI to use our smart searching skills for research.

For this inquiry, our topic researching about the famous artist Pablo Picasso. By using our smart researching skill we used the knowledge on the internet to create a DLO on personal information about him. Something I found interesting about Picasso was that he went through the Blue Period from 1901 to 1904, and how much people and artist he inspired with his art.

I found this activity interesting because I enjoyed learning more about Pablo Picasso and how he inspired people worldwide with his qoutes.

This week we have been learning about what rivers are, their unique attributes and how to label them. We then created a DLO about the Tamaki river and its history. Did you know the Tamaki River is a estuarial arm.

Using our knowledge that we acquired, we showcased the features of the Tamaki river using an aerial map. We then compared the Tamaki River with a prominent river in the world. Our group chose to look at the Congo River. Finally we made a comparison of the two rivers.

We found this activite fun but a little hard because it was hard to find true facts about the rivers.

LI: To explore the world in 1840 and the art of the Treaty.

This week we looked at what the world was like in 1840. Did you know the Treaty of Waitangi happened because Moaris wanted protection from the British from France since they would take their land.

We did this task to learn more about Treaty of Waitangi and the people who were involved in the Treaty, one of the most interesting fact I found out about Treaty of Waitangi is that when the treaty was getting signed british flags were on the table.

I explaned my transport, and said how it helps society.

First I had to download my DLO what labled my boat, and had to put it on my google doc.

Then I added the introduction, my introduction told what I chose to make, I chose to make a boat that can go on land, sea and air, and doesn’t use things like gas and electricity.

Lastly I added my explantion, talking about how each part worked, and how it helped society.
