Papiloti - Significant Places


 Today, I'll be presenting about all the significant places that mean to me. 

First Question: What does the word significant mean? What is a significant place? 

  • To me I think significant means something that is important & meaningful. I think it also means great or to be worthy of attention.
  • A significant place is a location or a place that holds a special meaning & is important within it. A significant place can occur to different cultures groups, depending on how much importance it brings them. 

Question Two: What are examples of significant places?

  • E.g of significant places - Church, park, beach, & etc. A place that you will call home. 
Question Three: What is a place that is significant to me & why? 
  • My old home is significant to me because it holds a special meaning as I was raised in that home & made good childhood memories growing up. I was raised in that home with my siblings & cousins, we all grew out together but everything started to change. Two of my older siblings got married & moved out, it was sad & hard to see them leave because the relationship we had at that home was strong. But this place will always be called home to me because it reminds me of my childhood memories & my siblings.

Papiloti - Self Defence !!


 For todays activity, we learnt self defence. For self defence we learnt all kinds of different things to help defend ourselves when we are in danger, such as sexual abuse, verbal abuse, emotinal abuse and many more. I must mention our lovely teacher Audrey, from Woman's Self Defence Network - Aotearoa / New Zealand who helped trained us for our 2 day course. I really enjoyed it and my favourite part of self defence is learning how to defend yourself after being strangled.

Technology !

Today at Technology I was in cooking. We were learning how to cook Hot cakes. The utenils we use was a spachila,a pan, a pot, spoon and a bowl. What we did first was on the oven then put the butter into the pot,we had to wait for a couple of minutes so the butter can melt. We had to put the flower and Sugar to a bowl,then crack the egg and mix it and then we had to put the egg into the bowl and mix the whole thing. We also put milk to it too. It smell so good. Then after that we had to put a pan into the stove then put the formal to the pan so it can cook . We did 12 pankcakes which was pretty awsome. We added a bit of some cream and some surup.

Technology.


At Technology today we were learning about the ultrasonic sensor. In this picture shows the code I used to programmed the mBot. We tried to control the mBot by using our hands to make it come forward and backwards. We also did coding which was pretty fun . Mr. Krishna my robotic teacher teach us how to do it so it wasn't that challenging .

Technology at Tamaki College.


At Technology today we were learning how to write a number eight, but using the mBot. We were trying to move the mBot around like a loop. In this picture, shows the code I used to programme the mBot. We had some difficulties to move the mBot around like a loop and it was challenging because we had to add a lot of things into the code.
