Persuasive Text: Yvette

These are my screenshots of a fake text. I used iFakeText to create fake messages based around the debate about chaging the New Zealand flag. My messages are against the flag being changed, and Evelyn my partner is for. These messages state the different reasons for and against. 

Jerry Collins: Halatoa

Today I created a Google drawing about Jerry Collins who  lost his life with his wife in a car accident. We really hope his daughter gets better. This Google drawing is about Jerry Collins rugby career and where he studied. This is a positive contribution Google Drawing about Jerry Collins.

First Maori Contingent in WW1 - Yvette

Room 5 designed their own follow up tasks to help them explore and understand the journey of the men of the First Maori Contingent in WW1.  The tasks they designed allowed them to see the war through the eyes of these men and through the eyes of those they left behind. Below are Yvette's DLO's that reflect her learning.

This is a DLO (digital learning object) I created based around the history of The Maori Pioneer Battalion. I created this using prezi. My task was to Create a DLO of your choice (be creative) that tells the history of the first Maori contingent in WW1. This gives information about the journey, the duties, and the retuned solders.

This is my photo collage on the Maori Pioneer Battalion. My task was to Create a collage of images that depict (show) the WW1 journey of these brave men. I created this collage using fotor.

This is my poster I created on the biography of Henare Mo-kena Ko-here. My task was to retell a soldiers story in the Maori Pioneer Battalion WW1. I found an image online to use as my background to make it more effective. I made the writing cursive to make this biography look like it was written back then. All the information is accurate.

Animals in WW1

'Some people say that animals were vital (really important) to the war effort in WW1.'
