Cybersmart Comment by Liza

We have been learning how to write quality blog comments for the Manaiakalani Film Festival.

A fantastic film festival

Room 9 was very fortunate to attend the 2016 film festival. We got comfortable red seats in front of the gigantic extreme screen at Sylvia Park. It was so exciting! Sitting in our seats, it hit 1pm and the lights went dim. Who was presenting first? Mrs. Grant! Our cybersmart teacher... She was just talking about the film festival. Anyway, we watched films from Glen Innes Primary, Tamaki College and Te Kura Kaupapa Puau. Created by students and shared with the world. It was awesome to see that room 9 can create something to go on the big screen as well. Well done Ruapotaka for the awesome films!

Walking the famous red carpet. We had to take a photo near on the carpet all the famous directors and actors walk on. 

Ready to watch the awesome manaiakalani films. Our big red comfortable seats. We were ready for an hour of awesome films, especially the ones created by Ruapotaka. It was great to see our friends.

An awesome display created by Mrs. Buchanan and her helpers. Right in the middle of the theater. 

Learning how to write quality blog comments

Room 9 has been learning how to write quality blog comments. 

Here is what one of the room 9 students learned.

It took a lot of practice but now  I have written  up to 6 quality blog comments. I have shared them with the creators of the awesome videos I watched for the film festival. It is important to write blog comments because people who share their work enjoy reading feedback and it is a way of sharing our appreciation for people sharing their learning. We write comments to tell people what they need to improve on as well.

Here is my comment I posted. Tristan.

The Start of our New Blogs!

Woohoo!! We now have our own individual blogs. It's been challenging but they look awesome. We learned how to accept an invitation to start our new blog. We've learned how to add titles, labels and even schedule posts for another time in the week. We've spent days creating blog posts. Visit our individual blogs to see our work we have posted.

Creating a Strong Password by Tupou and Riianna

I have been learning how to make a secure password. I learnt that qwerty is not a secure password and also personal information about you is obvious to guess. My top tip to create a strong password you should use letters from phrases, song lyrics and poems to help remember. You could also use capital letters and lowercase. by Riiana

I have been learning to create a strong password and it has to be unique or special. I learnt that qwerty is a weak password.
My top tip is to don’t share your password with anyone. by Tupou

I love to read poison apple books by Riiana

Hola, Malo Lelei & Talofa Lava,

My name is Riiana and I am 9 years old. I am a year 5 student in Room 9 at Ruapotaka Primary School. My teacher’s name is Miss Misela. I am half Maori and half Samoan. I have two brothers and no sisters. I am the second oldest in my family and also the most behaved.

My favourite subjects in school are cybersmart and writing. My goal for cybersmart and writing is to complete all of my unfinished work. I am good at writing and I want to improve on my multiplication especially my 6,7,8 and 9 times tables. My favourite sport is soccer. My favourite food is ice cream like boysenberry or orange chocolate chip. My favourite band is Imagine Dragons and my favourite song of theirs is Demons.

My family owned a big, black dog when I was 2 years old but we gave her away to one of my aunties because I kept on pulling on her tail.

I love watching anime and hanging out in my room by myself. I love to read poison apple books and Thea Stilton books when I get bored.
