Top Team Challenge

The Top Team Challenge.

On 29/10/13 of October my school and I had a special event going on in our school field it was called the Top Team Challenge. We also invited some other schools to our TopTeam Challenge.The schools who came to our Top Team Challenge were,Seabrook Mackizie,Linwood North,Shirly primary,Banks Avenue and Richmond School and there were al so over one hundred.

The Top Team Challenge set up all of the ten activities. Then we had to play against other teams from the other schools but on some of the challenges we versed our own class mates.Some of the activities were quite challenging for some of the groups,but we got through it by working as a team and using our initiative to think about what we should do next and how do we do it.I can also name some activities that were in the Top Team Challenge they were Hoop Throw,Memory Maze, Caterpillar and Tower.

After all of the schools had done all of the activities the first and second third groups were presented with a certificate.When all of the winners were presented,everyone got an ice-block I think that Top 

Team was really fun and challenging for me but it was not that bad.

Flick it on challenge.

This term room three and I have been creating a silent movie for the " Flick it on Challenge". Before we started filming we had to write and read about how schooling has changed through the years.Firstly, we had to read and write about how school has change through the years .We had to go to the library to find out what school was like and felt like in the Pre European days, once we had done that we had to do three more time zones before we started making our movie for the flick it on challenge. The three other times zones that we had to read and write about were, Early European, present and the future time zones. So for each time we had to read and write about how pre and early European,present and future children learnt or would learn when they were at school.

When we were ready to film about how school had changed through the years our teacher puts us in groups of two because each group had turns being the characters and being the one who took the footage when their group was acting in front of the iPad when we were doing our first part of our movie which is the early European.We also had to act it in FerryMead in a small classroom and the class room also looked very old.

 The actors that were acting in the early European were Jakita,Tom and Connor. After we had finished everything we had to edit our work on our iPads. We also had to make our movie really silent because we have to send our movie to a school in USA and another school from up north. These schools are also creating a Flick it on challenge and they have to send their flick it on movie to us so we can edit theirs that they have created.When all our movies are finished and we've completed the movies that we were editing for the other schools we send them back. Then we can watch our movie together as a class. For one of our movie scenes we used green screen.

My opinion is that I have learnt a lot and had a lot of fun making and creating this IMovie.
