Being Cyber Smart

 Being Cyber Smart:

I highly agree that it's very important to be Cyber Smart online. Being Cyber Smart about being on the right side of the web and always doing positive and kind things. Examples of being Cyber Smart; Always on the appropriate sites at the right time, keeping passwords and security stuff Private. The one and only part I will push is making secure able passwords. How will I make sure everyone will hear this message ? I will share to my families about what I learnt and I will educate my little young ones about it to. 

BOIC All About Me

Kia Ora my name is Jacque I am a year 9 at Bay of Islands College. I am New Zealand Maori, Cook Islander, and Samoan. I’m an only child. Something I enjoy is being surrounded by all of my friends and family. Challenges I have faced have been having multiple teachers, and also tests that we’ve had so far. A personal goal of mine is to be able to be able to pick up my maths. A new experience was being in the bilingual unit. It was a surprise to me as to how much maori we actually do, but has been hard to adapt to the changes.  I’m really looking forward to my years to come. If I do my full 4 years at this college,  that will be the first time I spent my whole school years at one school. I'm very excited for my years to come. 

Kawa Of Care

For the past few weeks we have been working on a Kawa Of Care DLO (Digital Learning Object). Me and my big group made a slide with a screencastify (which is on the last side). We all decided that we will all do one Kawa Of Care rule each and the Kawa Of Care rules that we have done are, Don't Share your Password or Important information to anyone, Don't put them in random places, Don't Eat by your Chromebook, Extension Cords and Cyber Bullying. Here is my groups DLO. Hope you enjoy :)

A day with Dash

Today in class we had a special visitor. His name is Dash. Dash is a digital coded robot.

You have this special app to him with. You could make him dance, talk and move. We had to learn how he moves and talks. To make him do all these things, on that special app, it has these blocks that say what he does. When Whaea Sally showed us on the mat how it works, it was pretty cool he was dancing, talking and moving like a normal person.

The thing I liked the most was how he danced and said hello to us. But the thing I didn't like was how when Dash goes forward it is like he is running after you. The easy thing about this experience was putting the blocks together. The hard thing was choosing what to make him do. It was hard doing that because only allowed 4 moves. Thanks Whaea Sally for that limit it was very hard. 

Thank you to Mrs Henare for letting us use your iPad for the app to control, and thank you to Tania Courts for letting us use him. Without you my class and I wouldn't of been able to have this experience.
