Why Is Sleep So Important?

LI: to explain why sleep is important.

This week our class learnt about why sleep is important. We started off by getting in groups of 3 and 2, which I paired with Matheus and Maurice. we learnt that sleeping depends on how old you are, for example: if your 6 -12, you need 9 – 12 hours of sleep. When we finished doing research and taking notes about why sleep is important, we decided to make a DLO about why is sleep important, to put all our information we learnt, all into the google drawing. Once we added our information in the DLO, we decided to decorate the google drawing with tools. When we finished we made it more interesting by putting links on our DLO that take you to websites, filled with information of why and how much sleep do humans and animals need.

I found this activity important and helpful, because it is important for our health, especially when you have to deal with epilepsy, or seizures, and that our DLO would be helpful for people that are unsure about their health.

Kiihingi Tuheitia Unity

LI: to research about the Legacy of our maori kings and queen.

This week our class learnt about the legacy of our maori kings and queens. We all got into groups of 2’s and 3’s to research and find some information about the new maori queen carry our legacy, Kuini Nga wai hono i te po. So i paired with Mason and Aliyan. This lucky maori women was chosen to be the new maori queen to carry her father’s legacy, which her father was Kiingi Tuheitia. We have learnt that he had strengthen his city by using Unity to gather his people together, we learnt about what is Unity, and how it brings people together. After we took notes, we decided to make slides about the whole thing, so we can add our research and information all into the slides.

I found this activity historical because in the past, there are many differences about the maori kings and queens in the past.
