Mapping the Migratory Flight of the Kuaka

LI: To use Google My Maps to show the migratory flight path of the Kuaka.

This task is about the kuaka. They travel far because they eat and train for the migration. There breeding grounds/Habitat mostly look like beaches. During their migration, they stop at  locations, such as in China, Korea, and Japan, to refuel and prepare for the next part of their journey. The Kuaka flying approximately 11,000 to 13,000 kilometers non-stop from Alaska to New Zealand and Australia.for there migration.

An Intresting fact is that the kuaka has the longest disactne for the migrations.

Kuaka Infographic

LI: To create an infographic that tells others about the migration of the kuaka

This task we have done is about the Bar-Tailed Godwits who are mainly known as kuaka. This is an infographic and infographic about the Bar-Tailed Godwits apperance as in what they look like , diet is what they eat , and habitat is where they live or you can find them in diffrent locations.

Something inresting i found about this bird is that they migrate for newzealnd to alsaka in 2 weeks.

 

Photo Story

LI: To understand the concept of visual storytelling

This task was about the whole school going on a river walk. when we arrived back to PBS we created a Photo story in order of when we got there and left to go back to school.

Something i enjoyed on the river walk was we arrived to point england and started running around doing sports with my freinds.

Working in groups

LI: To understand that everyone has a role to play when we are working in groups.

 

In LS2 we learn best when we learn with and from each other to help us with our learning and help us with communicating with our other classmates. What your responsibility as a group member is to always help other be included and help our group with their work. How working in a group helped you understand more about the kuaka because they all gave information about the kuaka that they know and we create them into ideas. Why talking to others about your learning is important because it can tell us more about the information we are learning about and to help us communicate.

Something I enjoyed is that I can work with my group and have some fun with them.

Exploring AI

This is the image I created using the Adobe Express. I found this activity challenging because we have to use the words to make the image fit the descpritiocn we used in the prompt but I found it fun because we could customize the image in our words.

Something i learnt when using prompts for AI is that you can make anything in AI by using the prompt.
