Google Summit 2021!

 Hey guys! This is a blog post on the Google Summit from 2021! Today I will be sharing the things that I have been learning, what was challenging and what I enjoyed the most. I think the most challenging was the Animaker Animation. It was challenging to figure out how to use it and what to do, but I got there in the end!

 The most fun toolkit I attended was probably Wedeo and Upgrade your google slides. Wedeo is super fun to make videos, GIFs and more! You can use Wedeo to edit videos and create ones from scratch! 

I never knew that you could animate text on google slides! Slide decks just became a whole lot more fun! Animating your text and slides can make your slide decks more interesting. You can the slides fly out of the sky, or make your text zoom in and out! It's super fun, and I think I'll definitely use animated text in my future slide decks. 

I learned using Canva with infographics, posters, postcards, slides and more! Canva has taught me that you can do more with your information and be more creative with your knowledge. 

I had lots of fun with Google Summit 2021 this year, and hope to do ti again soon!

What are Hurricanes?

 Hey guys! This is a blog post on all the things that I have learned about hurricanes. Enjoy!

Pukeko Life Cycle Chart.

 Hey guys! This is a Life Cycle chart on Pukekos. It tells you what a pukeko starts off as, and what it becomes when it's fully grown. Enjoy!

Pukeko information report.

 Hey guys! This is an information repost on the native NZ Pukeko. This information repost will tell you everything about pukekos. Enjoy!

Pukeko Information Report.

Classification

Pukeko’s are a native NZ bird with distinctive blazing red & blue feathers. They can grow up to 51cm big and have a standard lifespan of 3 - 6 years. The longest lifespan of a Pukeko in NZ is 9 years.

Habitat

The Pukeko lives throughout NZ, but are quite common by rivers, streams or swamps, close by to open grassy areas like fields or pastures.

Diet

The Pukeko is mostly vegetarian, but also eat invertebrates, eggs, small frogs, chicks and mammals, especially in the Pukeko’s breeding season where chicks are fed protein-rich animals.

Reproduction

The normal Pukeko usually lays 4 - 6 eggs, but can lay up to 18 eggs! They started mating in August, through to March the next year. The Pukeko has a highly variable mating system. When multiple breeding female Pukeko all lay their eggs in the same nest, it is a phenomenon called “Joint laying.”

Special Features.

Since the Pukeko is a bird, it has a few things that are special about it like, it can fly, though when running from predators, it would prefer to hide, but would fly if it was in danger. The pukeko also has a beak, great for feeding her young and catching food as well for itself.

Appearance

The Pukeko is very noticeable with its bright red beak and legs, blazing blub feathers, white feathers underneath their tail and a black head and upperparts. They are easy to spot for their predators, which makes it harder to stay alive in the wild.

Behaviour

The Pukeko is territorial when approached by other animals or bird colonies, but apart from that, they’re completely docile and friendly to approach amongst and watch.

The Dream...

 Hey guys! This is a piece of writing that I have been doing in literacy about me meeting my past, present and future self ... in a train ... supposed to be looking for my chihuahua. WEIRD!

I’m looking …

For my chihuahua. But how did I get on a train? And why does it smell like fish?!

Suddenly, I look up …

And find myself standing in front of three people that oddly look like me…

I pick up three passports and read through them.

NAME: Savanah JR

AGE: 1

LIKE TO DO: Like to cover self in icky stuff (Don’t know what it is, but it doesn’t smell very pleasant…)  

KIND: Past self. I think…

(I think these passports are of my past, present and future selves…)

NAME: Savanah

AGE: 10 (Weirdly…)

LIKE TO DO: Watch Minecraft in fact. (Supa Weird.)

KIND: Present.

NAME: Savanah SNR (Or Savanoid in her time.)

AGE: 1,000,000 years old! ( But looks surprisingly young.)

LIKE TO DO: Haunt rattle dolls and play with robots.

KIND: Future (My future self is creepy…)

I look up from reading the weirdly satisfying, interesting passports and the past, present and future selves started to fade. Then, there was a streak of lightning that hit the train and BANG! CRASH! BOOM! The train topples over with a huge CRUNCH! 

(Gasp!) I wake up. I’m at home. In my bed, with my chihuahua… weird. Maybe it was a dream. Or was it….. 

Koala Information Report.

 Hey guys! This is an information report on koalas that I have been working on in literacy for the week. Hope you enjoy!

Koala’s

Koalas are a kind of mammal called Marsupials with front pockets to carry babies. They are quite slow but can still be pretty cool.

Koalas are found in Eastern Australia, Victoria and a small part of South Australia and are most common in the Eucalyptus forest. They spend most of their time huddled to the branches, sleeping, otherwise, they are eating.

Koalas rely on their eucalyptus tree leaves to fuel them with food, and sometimes they vary on different tree leaves such as lophostemon, melaleuca and corymbia.

Koalas are Marsupials, a group of mammals that reproduce highly underdeveloped babies sexually. The Koala baby, the joey, sleep in the mother’s pouch at the front and feeds off the mother’s milk that she has produced.

The Koala has an amazing grip which is great for clutching to the branches of trees to sleep and they have extremely sharp claws to grab leaves to eat. Koalas have an amazing sleep time, for they can sleep up to 16 hours a day! The rest of the time of their day is usually spent eating.

Reptiles.

 Hey guys! In Literacy, I have been working on an information report about reptiles and I have been making a slide about the questions in the report.
