Kapa Haka Videos in Canva

Today in our Cybermsart lesson we were lenring how to make a video using photos. 

 Firstly we had to look at the Google Photo Album shared with us that has got lots of photos from our school's Kapa Haka day.  We searched the photos and download the ones we liked. We needed 3 or 4 photos. 

Then we uploaded the photos into Canva and added them to our pages in our video. 
We had an audio file to choose from. Either the boys haka or one of our waiata. We didn't quite finish them so we will finish these on another day.

Don't Fall For Fake

 Today in our Cybersmart lesson we were thinking about scams and phishing and the ways that people online try to get things like your password or personal data.

We looked at some online information and had a tug-o-war. We did this digitally on a Jamboard.

Here are some of the ideas we had to think about then decide what to do...

Being Sunsmart

Today we were talking about how we are sunsmart at St Mary's School and thought of 3 or 4 important messages for others.

We created a GIF in Canva. We learned how to make our first page and then duplicate it so our formatting was easy to have on other pages. 

We learned how to format text, add backgrounds, find our school logo and shield, change the colours of texts and elements and how to animate elements. 

Here is Macey's GIF. Do you think she has good sunsmart messages?

Playing Games Online

 Today in our Cybersmart lesson we looked at a video of 2 friends playing a game online together.
In the video they made smart decisions  about how to play and who to play with. 
We then brainstormed our ideas on how to keep games fun and friendly on a Jamboard.

What games do you play online? 
Who do you chat with while playing online? 
What keeps your games fun and friendly?

Here are our ideas ...

Sunsmart Video by Marley

 Today we did some more work on our Sunsmart videos.
We added animations and audio to make our video really eye-catching and to have "sisomo". 
Sisomo stands for sight sound and motion.

Here is Marley's video. Does he have sisomo?

Being Sunsmart

Our school is Sunsmart! 
This term we have to wear our hats whenever we go outside our classroom. 
Do you have to do this when you are at school?

We do other things as well to be Sunsmart at school.
We are creating videos in Canva to show this.

Today in our Cybersmart lesson we started creating our video.
We talked about design like using 3 colours and no more than 2 fonts.
We also talked about backgrounds that show the messages clearly.

How To Be An Upstander

 This week in our Cybersmart lesson we were thinking about how we can help others 
and be an upstander rather than being a bystander.

We made a new Google Drawing ourselves in our Google Drive, renamed it and made sure it was filed in our Cybersmart Folder. Then we designed some important messages about being an upstander.

One important thing to do is to take a screenshot and email it to trusted adults. 
Mrs Torrie's inbox was full of your screenshots! 

Here's a sample of what we emailed...

Favourite Food

 Take a look at our work. We used Remove Background so we could insert our photo and it looks like we are floating over top of our favourite food. 

We had to use the Explore Tool to find an image of food that we could reuse.

What's your favourite food?

Visual Mihi

This week in our Cybersmart lesson we created a Visual Mihi. 

We talked about delivering messages with images without any words.

We also talked about using images that are labelled for reuse.

We need to only use images we have permission for.
We can find images to use in the Explore Tool in Slides.

We thought of 4 images to convey information about us that we can share online.
The only words on our slide were our name.

Take a look at some of our work on the following slides and 
see if you can find out some more about us from the images we shared.

Blogging Competition Update

Last week we started our blogging competition. Here is an update.

Last week Room 5 had lots of comments from friends and families around the world. We need to make sure we reply to them.
