Netbook Reflection 2013

How has having a netbook connected to the internet helped my learning this year? 
Open the Google drawing to explore all our learning about creating a positive digital footprint.

Room 10's First Movie

Near the beginning of this year, we learnt how to make our very own movie for the first time. We made this movie so the people around the world know how to leave a quality blog comment. When we first wrote comments on other peoples blogs we had to remember to be positive and specific. Some of us had just written comments like “Cool writing” or “Your story is amazing.” When we wrote a comment, we ended it with a question and if we couldn’t think of a question, we would try and make a connection. As soon as we started making quality comments, they started getting longer and longer all thanks to Mrs. Fiona teaching us about cybersmart. We got the idea of making our movie from Mrs. Yollis’ class in California. They inspired us to make our own movie about quality blog comments. When we started filming, it was challenging for me because I had to learn my lines off by heart and it took me a long time before I could learn it. My favourite part of the movie was when when we all danced with joy and we yelled out “TECHNOLOGY.”  That was a lot of fun. As soon as we finished the movie, we watched it, published it and then our movie was ready  for the world to see. I am looking forward to do another interesting movie for the Manaiakalani Film Festival next year.      

Making a quality comment

We are learning to create a digital positive footprints.  I know I am leaving a positive digital footprint when I leave good quality comment.
Here is a comment I left on a blog.
My comment is a good quality comment because I have been positive and specific. I have also ended with a question so I can communicate with the author.

My digital footprint in 24 hours

We have been recording the websites we have visited within a period of 24 hours.  We used writing, drawing and pictures to represent the websites.

In Cyber Smart, we have been learning to create a positive digital footprint.We have been imagining what our digital footprint might look like in 10 years.

All about me

Hi my name is Andrea and I am 11 yrs old. I live in Glen Innes, Auckland.  I am Maori/Niuean.  My mum is Maori and my dad is Niuean. I have 4 brothers, 1 sister and a dog named Kibou. In chinese it means hope.  I enjoy singing and dancing as well.  I always ride on my orange bike and I love having fun.  

In addition, I know what the longest word in the dictionary is but I don't know what it means.  I love cooking food with my parents such as: Maori bread, mashed potatoes and homemade cake.  I am good at all sorts of sports such as: swimming, soccer and sprinting. My favourite colour is blue.  I have fantastic friends and their names are  Shanelle, Hilda-Rose, Lauren, Sina and Lana. I also love eating fruit.   Sometimes, I have to help my classmates with their work.


Moreover, I try my best to not do anything wrong.  When I grow up I want to be a dentist or a builder.  Many people say to me” be a dentist  because they make a lot of money”.  I have a teacher that teaches me very well so I can learn some more interesting things.

Last but not least,  I like playing on bouncy castles. I am on list 8 for spelling and when I’m bored I write poems.  I can count to ten in two different languages.  My favourite subject is Maths because I learn different strategies to solve problems.
