CyberSmart combined with Room 4

 Kia Ora everyone!

This week for CyberSmart Room 8 and Room 4 combined to do 1 massive lesson altogether with Phil. The focus was Creating Media, where students analysed different adds to understand the purpose of them and deciding who the target audience was. The Create task involved the students working in groups to create a video to teach people about an aspect of our Wesley Intermediate culture. Be sure to check out our Room 8 student blogs for the videos! Our students really enjoyed the session and gained some great new skills in the process. Thanks to Phil for another great session!

Here's a shot of our two classes working hard on their CyberSmart session

Room 8 CyberSmart via Google Meet - Week 7 Term 3

Hi everyone! 

Apologies, firstly, for not posting for a while - things have been crazy with dealing with all that Covid has meant for learning and what it looks like over the past few months. Having had a great couple of sessions with Phil from Ako Hiko via Meet during the lockdown, we again decided that it would be the best and safest way of continuing with CyberSmart once we were back at school.

         

This session was on Writing Quality Blog Comments. We had a small number of students from our class present and participating today, but the Meet recording will go up on our class site for other students to catch up when they can, either at home or when they are back at school. Those who took part today really enjoyed the session and got a lot out of it.

Week 9 CyberSmart in Room 8 - 'Blogger Profiles"

Kia Ora everyone!

This week for CyberSmart we are learning about Blog Profiles, and rather than you just read what I have to say about what we did, I thought we'd do things a bit differently! I'd love to hear what you have to say in the comments about what we have to say. 

Here is what me (Mr Ferguson) and a few of our students had to say about what we covered in this session:

We hope that you enjoyed looking at this different type of content today! Please leave any feedback that you have about our class' learning and if you enjoyed watching the clips. 

Have a great week!

Vaiaso o le Gagana Samoa in Room 8

Talofa lava everyone, 

Week 7 of Term 2 marks Samoan Language Week or Vaiaso o le Gagana Samoa. 

To commemorate this at Wesley Intermediate week, we have been doing a few things.

Each day there is a phrase that students have to translate in order to get house points for their house. 

Below are the slides that we have been viewing each day with the phrase. Do you know what answers to these questions are??

In addition to this, we have also been having a house volleyball competition. Windsor played off against Marlborough for the 3rd/4th play off at morning tea today, and Sandringham are playing Edinburgh at lunchtime to see who the champions will be! 

We also have a Pasifika-themed mufi day on Friday!

Faafetai and alofa atu,

Mr Ferguson
