Answers on how our project went.!

 


Questions 

Write your blog post here! 

All about the poster!

  • What...was the plan for your poster?  Who came up with plan/layout of the poster and why did they come up with that plan?

  • Did the poster plan/layout change over the planning days?  Why and how?

  • Who was in charge of the different parts of the poster? Why were they in charge of that part?

  • What were the successes in your planning (name at least one)? (things that went well)

  • What were the challenges in your planning (name at least one)? (things that could have been done better)

  • Reflection:  Before it was sent to be printed, were you happy with your contribution to the poster?  Were you happy with the final poster itself?  Explain your answer.


  • We thought of a way to make sure that our poster attractive, but not messed up at the same time. Mrs Apelu our social study’s teacher came up of our layout and how it was planned. The reason she came up with the plan was that our project was about water safety and she thought that making it simple and easy to read will save us time and energy to do the next task/planning.


  • Our original layout was a landscape until our teachers told us to make it vertical so that our poster has less space but more information in it.


  • I was in charge of talking about the outcomes of the things we did like having meetings with different people, making sure that I know what the things we planned and the achievement that we got out of them. My fellow mates were in-charge if stuff to like, what is the latest status of fatal drownings, finding out how many students in our class are confident at swimming, finding out the ages range of the people how died this year and last year.


  • Our main success was finishing our poster in time and ready to present. The one thing I think we could have worked on is improving the things we needed to say.


  • Finding all the data (information) for our specific role of the poster. Like finding out the most deaths last year and this year, finding the ages range for the people who died during those drownings. But I think we done well, nothing needed to change.


  • I think I was very happy for the last minute changes, we got stuck at points but managed to complete certain tasks or finishing touches for our posters. I was also very hyped to share our poster about water safety because it looked so beautiful (for my opinion) and looked so cool.

Akomanga Kaihanga project

Hello, my name is Mathew I am from Tamaki College I am part of a group called The Island Skittles. I have friends that are with me and that's Leanah, Mary, David, and Paikea. We are one out of the four others doing projects. Our project is based on Water Safety, our major focus is to prevent drowning from happening. We hope to narrow down the number of drownings in Glen Innes, We also are thinking about building a swimming pool for children in our school to have free-swimming lessons but if not poeple will get free swimming lessons in Swim Tastic. So what we've done so far is making surveys for the students in our class because if we start with the whole school we will have to be going around each class and surveying them. We also arranged meetings with people around our school and Panmure and more.

I feel grateful about this project because this is the time to block that thing that has been happening to poeple around water.
