Netbook Reflection

Big Question:
How has having a netbook, connected to the internet,Helped my learning this year?


I learnt from my teacher how to put a picture on a the blog and how to do a padlet and how to answer math questions that I don't know on studyladder. Also how to make a movie and how to film it right we also had to do zooming in and out put music in it but first we had to do a storyboard.


I learnt of by myself to do a keyboard shortcut. To make a  new tab you go ctrl T and to delete a tab you go ctrl W also if you want to do ctrl,shift,alt and I.


My Friend helped answer a math question on studyladder and my friend also showed me how to to a bar graph.



This is my studyladder page.






This is what my friend taught me how to work this out

Manaiakalani Film Festival

My favourite film is NO MORE CHOCOLATE IN THE WORLD.
From our school i enjoyed Room 11’s the title is called NO MORE CHOCOLATE IN THE WORLD. I liked it because it was about chocolate also because they acted great. The people in it Chole,Crystal,Lasa,Matthew,Clair and Clevan
The movie I like from other school was Success because it was funny.
For next year 2014 my ideas would be to make a better movie and make it funny like the one that we did this year but not copy it do a different one and make it go a bit longer.

Today i learnt about friendship,not to throw something over the fence when you are playing basketball with your friends,about caring for your friend’s or not being  bullied by other people also to stand up for yourself.

Alyssa Writes Her Narrative Egypt





One sunny unexpecting day I went to the shops. When I was walking I didn’t notice a hole so I fell into the hole.I came to this place I didn't know this place until I met a nice woman her name was Mia. Mia showed me around she showed me the Pyramids,they languge and many things I never knew.  Next she took me inside when I got inside there was a problem I met another woman and a man their names were Laney and Matthew

Then when I met them there was a problem with the huge water clock it wouldn’t work and I said to my small brain “ I wonder if they have any water”. So I asked “Do you have any water” and they replied “ No”  so I started to worry. The next day I was trying to get some signal.  To solve the problem.

Next I got some signal and i trying and trying to solve the problem but it was no use until when I went up close to the huge water clock. I saw something and it was bad something was inside it and it needed to get out fast or it will DIE.  After that I went to tell Laney,Mia and Matthew why the water clock won’t work so. I told them “ When I went up close to the clock there is something in there and it is camel a very very small  camel”.    After a while they thought of a idea they finally came up with a idea and it was great  it was to work as a team. Try to get that camel out of the clock and we all can have a nice glass of water so they worked together and the camel got out it was a big day today.



I learnt a lot from a narrative I learnt to use dialogue,adjectives,adverbs,similes,metaphors,connective,past tense what is going to happen also what will happen.I love doing narratives because I love  making up stories that are not true.    

Alyssa learns through Cartoons

I have been learning direct speech through cartoons.  We had fun doing these cartoons. Next time I hope we can do a story in cartoons.
