A Moment in Time

LI: To recount and explore the learning and experiences from our Year 7/8 camp

I wrote a poem based on my senses like auditory, tactile, visual, and kinesthetic. I used my prior knowledge of the senses and unpacked different words and ideas that describes the Hunua Falls. These moment in time poems represent my experience at Kokako Lodge. One of my ideas were “I saw the birds flying freely in the live green trees”,  I then used word hippo to find more powerful words to strengthen My poem.

I found this activity fun because I got to use my sences to create a strong poem about my experience at Kokako lodge.

Brochure

LI: To remember and give information about Kokako Lodge.

 

After camp, we created a brochure about information and highlights about our experiences at Kokako Lodge. We used our persuasive skills and gave reasons to why our audience would want to go. We used pictures to show what it is like at Kokako Lodge and what they have to offer.

I found this activity fun because I got to persuade people about why they should go to kokako lodge by using my personal experiences.

Key Competencies

LI: To create a comparison of the before and after experiences at camp.

Before camp, we wrote down what we would achieve at camp by using the acronym TRUMP. The meaning of Trump is thinking, relating to others, using language symbols and text, managing self, and participating and contributing. These 5 words help us to remember when to use them in every activity. When we came back from camp, we wrote down how we used the key competencies for our belongings and in the activities.

I found this activity fun because I got to create goals that I could try and achieve at camp so I could help others have a good time.
