March C4K Summary

My first C4K assignment was for a group of kids from Pt. England School in Auckland, New Zealand. On Monday February 24, 2014 Class 18 created a vimeo about what it means to be a “good Pt. Englander”. The students talk about lining up and walking in a straight line, listening to their teacher, and cleaning up. In the video it also shows students using technology of all types such as ipads and mac desktops. At the end of the video it shows pictures that the students drew to represent their class. I commended the class for incorporating technology with creativity and that their video was really interesting and detailed.

My second assignment was for a 12 year old girl from Pt. England, New Zealand. Her name is Martha and she is in the eighth grade. Her post titled “Sports Day at Tamaki College”, Martha explains her P. E. day at Tamaki College, a high school in Glen Innes. She first describes how hot and awful it was to walk from their school to Tamaki. She tells her readers that they were already sweating before they even began P.E. Martha goes on to explain the games they played while at Tamaki in great detail. After reading her post, I complemented Martha on how detailed her post was. I then encouraged her to continue writing other great blog posts.

MY third assignment was for a year 7 student at Pt.England, Jabez.In his post, Jabez discusses his experience reading “DLO A Tour Like No other”. He talks about a map of New Zealand and how it shows public opinion and the different areas are color coded. He also tells his readers about different photos and what pages they are on. He describes the pictures in great detail. In my comment, I complemented him on his creative blog and how he did an amazing job describing in detail the photos. I also told him that I liked the structure of his blog post and to keep up the great work!
