Attributes and Images - Jessie and Charlize


Today we were learning how and why we attribute our photos. We attribute our photos to show thanks to the person who took the photo. Attributing photos is also quite easy to do, except when you have to get the authors name, license, and website. First we  clicked on search tools then went to Usage Rights then we clicked on labeled  for use. After did that we went to go and visit the site. When we finished on the site we had to find the person who put it up on images and  the license.

Orienteering - Yr 8 and 7


Today we played another game of Orienteering. My partner ( Juanita ) and I worked together as a team, I thought playing Orienteering  was a good sport because it makes us do exercise  and it shows us how to read a map. My partner and I were timed and our time that we started was 2.40 mins  as we were competing other team mates we both realised that some other team mates were doing the same curse as us and some weren't. When my partner finished the 1st course we moved on to the 2nd course, as we were finishing my partner Juanita was having a race between this other girl Charlize, but bad luck my partner Juanita bate Charlize just by a few seconds. Finally our time was 25.10 mins.

Get Wise ASB - Jessie



Yesterday  the year 8 went to Get Wise  with Jeremy  who works at ASB. Jeremy  came to our school to talk to us about  being wise about money, Jeremy told the year 8's some very important things like how we could get money by doing things at home, and how to save our money and  start a bank account from our age. After he told us the importance of money and how to save,  he showed us a chart that shows the different kind of ways we could get money and save up. The three ways we could save up and get money is by doing your chores at home, doing the next-door neighbours lawns or help them, and the last one is Sell and trade. Jeremy said "SSOY + SST" which means Spend Some On You and Save Some To and always be the best you can because people are watching you.  Also Jeremy said " Make a choice go the easy way or the hard way because if you choose the easy way you will fail and just live you life but if you got the hard way you are challenging yourself and you will achieve."
