Matariki Star

In class lately we have been learning about Matariki. Matariki is a cluster of stars and the stars are a symbol of the new Maori year. An art challenge we had in Moana 2 was to make one of the seven stars of Matariki. My group chose to make Matariki. This is our art work.

Smart Surfing Poster


In school we have a program called Manaiakalani that teaches us things about staying safe on the internet and how to be cyber smart! Recently we have been learning about smart surfing. Smart surfing is finding exactly what you need in one search. In my class we had to make a poster giving some tips about smart surfing. Here are some of my tips.
My first tip is to use keywords while searching, in order to find more accurate results.
My second tip is to make sure to be specific to the topic to find better results.
My third tip is when using information off the internet make sure to check three other websites to make sure the information is correct.
Those are all my tips my tips!
