Edmund Hillary

So, it's back to the time at school when you have to research! But this time, it was a bit more interesting... we got to choose an NZ hero, and make an 'All About Him/her' on the hero. I choose Edmund Hillary, and i created a PowerPoint presentation on him. This was my presentation:

This presentation took me about a week to finish, and somehow, i really enjoyed it, and i can't wait until i get to share other cool things I've been doing!

Tagxedo

So, what shall we do that's fun while half of our hub (Totara Hub) goes swimming... Oh, Yes! An all about me activity... but what shall we use to make an all about me that looks cool? But as we always know, Mrs Hardaker always have learning the fun way usually planned.

"I would like everyone to jump onto your devices and make a tagxedo about yourself."

And so everyone rushed onto their devices and started looking for websites that you can create a tagxedo. It took us quite a while to find the right site because some websites required Adobe Flash and some needed Microsoft Services or something. But we all finally found the right site.

After a few days I finished my tagxedo. This was mine:

If you would like to create your own tagxedo like my one, just click this link:

At least now most of us, hopefully all, have finished the tagxedo. Unfortunately, the ones who haven't finished them won't be able to share theirs!

Superheroes

Look at that! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it a dog stuffed in a hotdog that just flew off a catapult? No! It's a superhero!

Hey everyone! It's time for you to check out what we've been doing on the first/second week of school! Can you guess what we were doing? Well, we were creating superheroes!

Pretty cool, huh?! You can create your own at Marvel.com! After we created these, we wanted more fun added into it. And so I thought, wouldn't it be cool to have my face on the superhero! This is what my superhero looked like after a bit of editing:

I thought that this was amazing! So I showed the teacher (Mrs Hardaker), and she thought it was amazing! 

So she yelled out to the class, "Everyone, if you want your superhero to have your face on it, email it to Sam." And so I got lots of emails saying 'Sam can you print this' 'Sam please do this' etc.

If YOU would like your superhero to have your face on it, just take a screenshot of your superhero, take a picture of you, write your email (so I can send it back) then email it to me (my email: slamuelrock@icloud.com).

I'll give it to you in no time!
