Streets for everyone project

This term for extension we've been working on a big project called Streets for everyone. We've been work with people of The Open Fort (Toby and Bahv), to help with the project. The reason we are doing this project is to make the streets we live on more safe and fun.

We are in different group and doing different things. I'm in a group with Valessa and Kiarah (you should check out their blogs). In our group are main idea is connect the dots. The slides below show how we've extended the simple activity into multiple ideas. 

Next week we hope to install some of our work onto the streets. It's been a lot of fun working with Open fort on the project along with my team mates, Valessa and Kiarah.

Here are a few photos we took on our walk around the neighbourhood, (there was a video I wanted to add but I can't so enjoy the photos).

Is it ever okay to steal?

 

Today a group of us got to take part in class on air filming. We were chosen to have a debate. The debate was about stealing, and why we are for or against it being okay to steal. I was with Kiarah and Cherish (Check out their blogs, and leave a nice comment). My group were against. We originally wanted to be for, but we took the challenge of going against. On the 3rd slide it shows a few of the reasons we had against each argument. 

The Deca tree

 

Since we're back in level 1 today we did some maths in groups. I was in a group with Kiarah, Rae Jae and Kahurangi (you should check out their blogs). We were one of the two groups who answered correctly. We solved it together and got 8889. Along with solving this we learn't about how making mistakes helps our brain grow.

So don't be afraid to make mistake, and keep going! :)
