In this DLO, I learned about perimeter of compoundshapes and how to work it out. I found out that a compound shape is made up of two or more simple shamples join together.To find the perimeter, I add up the lengths of all the outsides. This helped me understand how to solve perimeter problems and use my measuring skill in math. It was a fun way to learn about shapes and their boundaries.
This weeks learning we were taught about parallelograms and how they work in maths. We learned about their special properties like how opposite sides are equal and parallel and how opposite angles are the same. It also shows how to find the area of a parallelogram and where these shapes can be found in everyday life. The examples make learning about parallelograms fun and easy to understand.
This weeks learning for math we learned about angles. This DLO teaches you all about angles and how they work. Youll learn how to measure angles, tell the difference between different angles and see where angles are used in everyday life and in maths.Its fun and there is always and example to help you understand angles better and improve in your math skills which really helps alot. I enjoyed this activity knowing that this will help me in the future with my math and right now.
For Samoan Language Week, we created a Google Slides presentation with useful phrases in Samoan and English that could be used in everyday school situations. We chose important phrases such as asking to go to the bathroom, borrowing a pen, finding the sickbay, and asking for help with our work. We also used AI to generate images that matched each phrase and made the meaning easier to understand.
While working on this task, I learned more about the Samoan language and how translation can help people communicate and feel more confident. I found it interesting creating images to match the phrases and thinking about how these expressions could be useful for people who are still learning English. This activity helped me appreciate the importance of language and culture, and showed me how communication can help people feel welcomed and included.
We listened to ther audio book by John Boyne. After each chapter we explored the mood and atmosphere. Mood is like the way the person in the chapter is felling and the atmosphere is like the overall vibe of the chapter.We worked together collabboratively to summarize each in ten sentences, This helped us practice s/c/c sentences. Some days we use Gemini to Prompt us and some days we our ten sentences card that helps us by giving us some exsamples and it helps becuase it gives us ideas and we can add onto it. Something that I found interesting was that the mood and atmosphere changes though out the book.
We were challenge with 2 question that were connected to the text the Anne Frank and we made a DLO to answer the questions. Something that we always do with these tasks is we show respect for both sides of the story.

Panmure Bridge School went for a walk to the Panmure basin, we explored the new bridge that was made and we loved it. While we all walked we also got to learn about the mythical Taniwha that is known to guard the basin under the bridge. One interesting thing I learnt is that the taniwhas name is known to be called Moko-ika-hiku-waru and it has eight tails which makes it more mithical. I enjoyed drawing this Taniwha because I have learned many more things about the Panmure Basin.
For this weeks learning we have been focusing on abstract nouns meaning having feelings. We generated a image from nano banana replicating The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas and we chose the word FRIENDSHIP for our abstract noun which turned out to be a perfect explanation on why these two humans have an unstoppable bond were they had die together knowing that they have eachother.
