Technological practices
LI: To use technological practices process to design a toy.
For Mrs Fisi’iahi’s Inquiry lesson, we were focusing on the three last technological processes. They were: build, test and evaluate. We used the required materials in order to build the AUV rover. After this, we tested and compared each group’s rover to see which group was able to scramble across the floor the furthest. Evaluating our results was the last step.
I found this activity fun because we got to test it and see what we had to change after that we had to test how it would work and see how it would move this is why I thought this activity was cool.

Toys
LI: To strengthen connections to technology.
We have been learning about technological practice. This week we have been learning about the 6 processes of Technological Design and how each one is important in the process of designing a product.
We are using the processes of technological practices to design and build a rubber band- powered rover that can scramble across the floor. I found this interesting because it was challengeing.

Sir Isaac Newton
LI: To use your smart searching skills to find out who Sir Isaac Newton was and how his work connects to simple machine.
This week for reading we were given a collaborative task to find out what Sir Isaac Newton had to do with simple machines. We found out Who he is and why his work is important to him. In our DLO we added one simple machine he created called the Pulley. A simple machine is a machine that makes our lives easier.
Something I found interesting about Sir Isaac Newton was because his simple machine has made our lives easier with the things he did in is time of youth.
My favourite part of this activity was because I got to work togther with my group and find fun facts about Sir Isaac Newton.
