For this Summer Learning Journey, I was challenged to create a Pokémon-style trading card inspired by “Guardians of the Wild.” Firstly, I selected one of the creatures from Auckland’s Most Endangered Species document to feature on the trading card. I decided to go with a Kokako bird. Here is my final Pokémon-style trading card.
For this Summer Learning Journey, I was tasked with distinguishing between three enchanting types of magical horses: the Unicorn, Alicorn, and Pegasus. My challenge was to organise various symbols into the correct columns for each horse, and I discovered that not all symbols were necessary for each category. It was a fun and creative way to explore the unique characteristics of these mythical creatures!
For this Summer Learning Journey, I created a Tuatara using various art media, including line drawing, playdough, leaf collage, and digital art. I chose to develop my Tuatara using Google Draw, as it allows me to make a more realistic or cartoonish design. Here is my finished drawing!
For this Summer Learning Journey activity, I learned about feathers and created a quiz to test others’ knowledge on the topic. First, I gathered information about different types of feathers and made a note sheet that I can refer to whenever I need it. Here is my quiz!
For this Summer Learning Journey activity, I created a digital feather cloak using Google Draw. While you can also make it on paper, I chose this method because it’s more efficient and faster. I looked at various inspirations from people who were drawing it on paper, and was amazed by their detailed work and accurate information. I began my feather cloak on Google Draw, and here is what I ended up creating!
For this Summer Learning Journey activity, I explored the “Predator vs. Prey – Step It Up.” I began by researching food webs, and then I created a copy of the slide featuring various types of animals at the bottom. My task was to connect the animals: using green for those that are prey to a lion, red for those that are predators of a lion, and orange for animals that serve as both prey and predator.
I really enjoyed this activity because it was fun and helped me go from feeling bored to learning about a lion’s food web!
