Identity Project

Kia ora Bloggers! On Monday 19th of February Whaea Monika and Whaea Kerry came to
Paihia School to finish the work we started at the Waitangi treaty grounds with them. We
were learning to identify ourselves. At the Treaty Grounds the yr 6’s got to use Paint 3D
to create some characters for us to put on our digital waka. We Used Tinkercad to create
some trees with the different shapes that were there, Dezray and I created one large Kanuka Tree,
One Medium, one small and one fallen over one (All Kanuka) and a few Flax Bushes).
Whaea Monika and Whaea Kerry told us to go onto the devices (I used my chromebook) and create a
sculpture of our identity, I put Mount Egmont (Taranaki) on mine because it is where I am from, I also
Put 6 koru’s on mine because it is representing my family, My dad, My mum, My dog, my 2 brothers,
my sister and me. I put a picture of the lily pond river on it because I love swimming there and I put my
dog and her kennel because I really love her

I really enjoyed making the trees because it was fun to experiment with the different ways that I could
make them. I think that next time I could make different Ideas and try my hardest.

Waitangi Treaty Grounds

Kia Ora Bloggers!! On February the 7th and the 8th (Thursday and Friday)
the year 6’s went to the Waitangi Treaty Grounds. We got to work with really
cool gadgets Including Virtual Reality, SculptGL, Paint 3D, Tinkercad, Dashbot (Robot coding),
Green Screen & Stop Motion. The 2 people that were there with us were Whaea Monika &
Whaea Kerry. On the first day that we were there half of us went on a Hikoi (a walk around
the Treaty Grounds) and the other half got to have a tutu with the technology that was there.
These are the things that we used.
During the Hikoi we walked around the Waitangi Treaty Grounds to Ngatokimatawhaorua
(Ngatokimatawhaorua is a famous waka). It was really cool because we got to go through
the Waitangi museum and see the copy of the Treaty of Waitangi.
