Be Cyber Smart

Be Smart Online
Hi it's Miriam here, today I'm going to tell you about being cyber smart. The reason you have to be cyber smart is that if you tell somebody personal information then they can track you down. You also might not know who is reading what you write. Another thing is that if you are getting bullied by somebody online it is called cyber bullying. If this happens then tell an adult straight away. If you are a kid who want any social media apps and your mom or dad say no, it's to protect you of cyber bullying or sharing personal information. Also everything you post on social media sticks with you forever. Even if you try to hide it from people the world can still see it. That is called a digital footprint. It sticks with you forever. So BE SMART ONLINE!!!

Kawa Of Care
Kawa Of Care is about taking care of your chromebook. I am here to tell you how to take care of your chromebook. At the end of the day you need to shut all of your tabs and sign out. The reason we sign out  of our chromebooks is that the next day when you go to use your chromebook is that it will take a long time to load. Also you should not eat or drink around the chromebooks. The reason you should not eat or drink around the chromebooks is that if you spill anything on it, it would make our chromebooks dirty. You also should not hold the chromebook by the screen because the screen could break away from the chromebook.

Tryout Timetables

Sign Up For Workshops 
Hi again. Today I'm going to tell you about our timetables. To fill in our timetable we need to sign up for workshops. I am guessing that you are wondering how we sign up for workshops so I am going to tell you how. The way we sign up for workshops is that on Sunday afternoon our teachers, Matua Fergus and Koka Ngaire send a google form into our mail for us to sign up with.

Organising My Timetable
On Monday mornings I sign up for my workshops then write them into my timetable. The way that I sign up for my workshops is that I go into my mail and click on a google form that my teachers sent me and choose the workshops. Now you may be wondering where I get my timetable and what I do while I am not at a workshop, well I am going to tell you the answers to those questions but first let me tell you more about my timetable. On my timetable the day is broken up into 30 minute time slots. Next to each time slot there are boxes for you to write your activities into. But before we get into how to fill in the timetables you need to find your name so that you can fill in the right boxes. Now I am going to tell you what I do when I am not in a workshop. When I am not in a workshop I do things like Quick write, Read to self, Work on writing, Work on maths and listen to reading.   These are our links to learning. We find the links to learning on the Moana Learning Hub. You can choose which things you want to do and when you do them but we have to do all of the activities at least once a week. 
Moving onto how I get to my timetable. The way I get my timetable is that I go onto the Moana Learning Hub. Then once I get onto the Moana Learning Hub I go to the home page and go to a picture that looks like a clock. I click on the clock and then it takes me to the timetable. I am now done telling you about our AWESOME timetables so see you next time.
This is what my timetable looks like.
