Tech @TC - Robotics #2

Today we went to Tamaki College , for technology. Today when we got into class there were tables that were separated for safety reasons.

First thing we did was logging into our computers, and started playing the Binary  game then went on playing the Classic maze   game , were you have to give it set instructions to do what you have asked it to do. This time the coding game was a different compared to the last game one we've done, because it was the angry bird trying to catch the naughty green pig. We had to complete all twenty levels, and I've completed all of it. Then we ended the class off with two quizizz games, about naming the logo.

Tech Online Class - TC - Robotics #1

Today we had tech, but this time it was different. We had tech online, and I was in robotics with Mr. Krishna. To be honest the work we did was very easy. At first we started playing this Binary Game ; to play this game all you have to do it add the numbers up and add then put the answer in the box to the right, or you write the total in the box. 

The next thing we did was a quizizz game. It was questions about robotics. Then we played a coding game called ; Minecraft Voyage Aquatic, where we made the code for the character to get to its destination, then took screenshots of the code and the picture at the end when you finished it. Then place the screenshots of the game onto a slide, for Mr.Krishna to see our progress, whether it was easy for us or not. Finally we finished our class , thanked mr. and off we went , finishing off our work.

I'd say that robotics is very interesting due to you coding thing to make an object or character move place to place.

Tech @Tamaki College #6

Today was the first day of  technology this term. When I got into Mr. Grundy's class I got my box, and I started straight away. I put my name on the board for help, and Mr. Grundy came to me. When he approached me he told me to use some water and the 1200 grit to sand my necklace. The next thing I did was polish my necklace with a polishing bottle called 'Brasso.' Then after I finished polishing my artwork , I was given an option weither I wanted to make a box to put my artwork in or not, and yes of course I wanted to make a box, so I did. I choose the colour blue to be and the colour of my box. But I need to glue it on next week. 

Tech @Tamaki College #5

Today at technology, I got into class and I put my name up on the board.  When my name got called out, I raised my hand and Mr Grundy came up to me and gave me a sand paper which was 400 grit sandpaper. Which means I've made progress. After filing for a long time I got given a 800 grit sandpaper. I am proud that I've made great progress with my project.

Tech @ Tamaki College #4

Today at Technology I was onto the stage of filling in my report about my pewter casting. On this piece of paper all you have to do is explain what and why you made it, and who it's for. I was also  filing off my pewter casting with a p180 sandpaper grit which was pretty easy. But hopefully next week I get to move on to the next sandpaper grit.  I am actually pleased with how far I have gone with my project.

Tech @ Tamaki College #3

During hard-material today, my friend and I was onto the second to last stage, which was using a sand paper to smooth out our piece of pewter. Sand paper is a paper to make items smooth and very clear.

While I was on the second to last stage with my friend we both learnt that making a pewter necklace is obviously made with pewter. Pewter is a malleable metal.

Tech @Tamaki College #2

These are two examples of what a pewter necklace looks like. I'm doing a puzzle just like the picture on the right.

Today at technology I have moved on to the next step after I fnished cutting out the shape of my necklace. Mr Grundy poured the pewter into my design and letting it sit for 6-7 minutes. Then after that I took it out of the square wood peice and started filing my necklace to which I was satisfied with. But next week I have to finish it off and then cut the end of the piece.

Tech @Tamaki College #1

It was my first day at Tamaki College for technology since the lockdown. I am in Mr Grundy's class 'Hard material'. In hard material we are making necklaces. We are doing pewter casting. Meaning , you add pewter to your desing your making and let it sit for 6-7 minutes for it to cool down. But before you add our pewter you have to shape you desing out on a wood. In class we have a document which is called our 'work book' we have to think of four people to whom we are going to make it for. I choose to make it for my brother. I have choosen to make a puzzle. 

Cushion Creation

Today I finally finished my Cushion with assistance from Mrs Tuipulotu and Temu. The colour of my cushion is blue with lovely flower patterns on it. Today was a fabulous day because I got to finish sewing my cushion and also I loved worked independent.

Sewing #4

Today is Monday July 1st and it is my last time of the term here at technology at cooking & sewing. So today I made the most of it since my other fellow members that have joined me left me and decided to go play around places. We all have three sheets so far but today we now have four worksheets completed.

Sewing at Tech #3

Today I did the zig zag lines with Bernadette and
Eden as you can see. At first it's easy then the
middle one is  medium easy then the last one
is kind of hard but easy at the same time.
This is my second to last one I’m doing.

The "key words" reflection

Identify what did the term "key word" mean to you when gathering research in our Web Res Drafts file and how did it impact on you results?
It meant to me that when you add more quotation marks the more hits you get. My results kept on going higher and higher.

Describe the skill that you learnt in the Who are you topic.
I learnt that robots are most likely going to take over the jobs in the world. 

Explain when and where you could use this skill again.
I could use this again some other time when I need abundance of information from the internet and I might use it at home or at school.
