Virtual tours

A review should:
  • explain what happens on a virtual tour
  • mention highlights on the tours
  • give an overall opinion of virtual tours online (strengths and weaknesses)
  • mention specific virtual tours you have looked at as examples
  • include hyperlinks to the virtual tours you mention

200 words minimum





A virtual tour is when theres a picture of some where in the world but you can only turn in a 360˚ angle. You can go from any where from London to Vatican city to New Zealand. I think it isn't that good because you don't get to see any where past the one camera and it doesn't feel like your there so you don't get the full experience.

Life Ed Movie




Underneath do your reflection

Reflection
For each heading explain how well this aspect was done
  • what was done well
  • what wasn’t done well
  • what you would improve if you had more time

Sound quality: voice volumes, background noise, distracting sounds
Voices was low, back round was good, no distracting sounds 

Camera skill: steadiness of the camera, effects, angles, locations, lighting
Steadiness was bad 
Acting: robotic performance, realistic acting skills, script genuiness, speed of replies, facial expressions, looking at the camera, tone, FAKENESS
It was pretty realistic 
Editing: flow in the cut scenes, transitions, music effects
Pretty good
Poem: time, quality of the poem, scrolling speed, voiceover, poem is relevant to the movie content
Very bad 
Quality of the life education message in your movie (the Script): realism, was it a good message?
Good
Teamwork: all team members were working equally, nobody excluded, everyone had a role, everyone had a choice, how your group solved problems
Good

If we had more time I would improve on the louder voices.

Vector

Translating is when you can move a shape to another location.
Vectors are a thing that shows you what to do with the shape. The top number is if it goes left or right and the bottom number is up or down if the bottom is negative it means down and if the top number is negative it means left. In real life it can be used by moving buildings.    

Akinator

Do you like to out smart computers?
Well you came to the right place. It's called Akinator, you can think of any famous person in the world and he'll get it, all you need to do it answer his simple questions. He can guess people from famous singers famous actor to famous sport players to famous YouTubers. It is great mate I rate 8/8.

Books can be bad because so much trees are cut down for them.
E books can be bad aswell because it cost alot more money to buy the device then you have to get wi fi, it cost money to charge and it causes radiation. It also cost alot more money to replace if it brakes and books cost alot less.

Three Blind mice

Three blind mice, three blind mice,
See how they run, see how they run,
They all ran after the farmer's wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife,
Did you ever see such a thing in your life,

As three blind mice?


Cast: Blind mice one, blind mice two, blind mice three, cat


(The three blind mice are running after the farmers wife.)

Blind mice one: We're gonna get her!

Blind mice three: Were is she!

Blind mice one: I don't know but lets just keep running

Blind mice two: I think I got her!

(Blind mice two grips onto cat) 

Cat: Raaaaw! 

All: aaaaahhhhhh!

Rotational Symmetry

In your own words explain what rotational symmetry is.
Is when a shape can turn a shape a 360˚ angel

A shape has an order of rotational symmetry of 2. What does this mean?


How is rotational symmetry different from line symmetry?
Rotational symmetry is turning the shape and seeing if it fits. Line symmetry if folding the shape to see if its symmetrical

What do you do to check if a shape has rotational symmetry?
You put a pin in the middle then turn and see if it fits

Find pictures of 3 real life objects which have rotational symmetry (not shapes, objects e.g. foods, logos) and paste them into your post

Fixing writing

"Morning class," greeted Miss Green 
It was an ordinary day and everyone was sitting at their wooden desks with pens and pencils by their side the sweet sound of voices filling the room brought music to my ears I decide to listen in on Britney's conversation with Ella. 
"OMG! Last night I reached into my bag to get out my book and it wasn’t there," explained Britney. 
"No way," replied Ella "That exact thing happened to me!, I was sure I put it into my bag." 
This is a little strange I thought to myself why are things disappearing?


Eventually the bell went and it was time to go home. I told my mum what I had witnessed at school and she was lost for words. That night I couldn't get Britney and Ella's conversation out of my head I grabbed my laptop out of my bag to Google this mystery as I unzipped the case I looked down only to see that there was no laptop in my bag this is insane, I decided to look in my other pocket of my bag and to my surprise my lunch box was also missing.


The sun was shining birds singing it seemed like an ordinary day. I walked into my class that is usually full of colour but not today my class looked like a prison cell "What happened" I gasped 
"Don't worry kids," assured Miss Green "We have a thief in our class and I am going to get to the bottom of this."
One by one Miss Green started checking our bags everyone seemed relaxed except for James Miss Green made her way down the line and James was last to be checked 
"Oh," said Miss Green looking rather lost
"What is this," she asked James as she pulled out two books, a pencil case, my laptop and two class posters from James bag.
  
I was utterly shocked to say the least. 
"I am so sorry!" cried James "Its just that everyone has laptops or books and our class is so colourful and I wanted to take some of it home to make my house look better." The truth is that you should be happy with what you have and not want stuff from other people.

Fixing Kaidins writing


It was a monday morning I just got woken up by my Mum to get ready for school I got out of bed and reached down for my uniform but it wasn't there I looked under my bed under, my pillows but I couldn't find my uniform anywhere Kaidin 
"have you gotten in the shower yet" 
"no Mum I cant find my uniform" 
"well you better find it quick or you will be going to school in your onesie" 
"ut Mum I cant find it anywhere it’s like its just disappeared" 
"Oh sure just like all your other stuff huh kaidin"
I got a note to go to school with to say that my uniform is lost and that I have to wear mufti just for today which was a pain because every teacher I walked past asked why im in mufti and where my uniform is so I just showed them the note and moved on when I got home I went to go grab my iPod from where I always put it but I looked and that wasn't there either.
I yelled out to my Mum "Mum have you seen my iPod!"
"No!" "but do you know where did you last put it" 
"Mum if I knew where I last put it do you think i'd be asking you where it is"
"Sorry, just trying to help"

I thought to myself that i'll try to find it later so I run into my room to go on my PS3 but surprise surprise it’s not there. 
"Mum oh what now Kaidin!" 
"I know you're up to mischief tell me where all my stuff is!"
"Kaidin do you really think I would hide your uniform away from you so you would go to school in your onesise, now what’s gone missing now" 
"My PS3 the whole thing, the controller is here but not my HDMI cable, power cord or my Elgato" 
I really couldn't be bothered looking for all my stuff because it will take me hours so I just thought of going for a bike ride I walk outside to get my bike and I couldn't believe it my bike had no tyres by this time i've had enough I went up to my mum and said. 
"Mum I know you’ve put all my stuff somewhere please can I have it back" 
"Kaidin I have hidden your stuff away would you like to get it back?" 
"Yes where is it"
"Where is it where is it right here My mum led me to her bedroom where my stuff

Parties

Civilan Party

Declare New Zealand’s independence from Hamilton. (Read more)
Establish a space program, and become the first nation in Australasia to send a man to the moon; not to explore it, just someone we don’t like.
Reform the tax system so that it rewards success and punishes failure. Ensure that the bulk of taxes are aimed at the greatest source of poverty in New Zealand: the poor. (Read more)
Remove the monarchy and become an independent banana republic. (Read more)
Close the pay gap between men and women by working to reduce men’s wages.
Alleviate poverty amongst children by giving every poverty-stricken child a llama as a means to a basic income.
End discrimination against social majorities. No more special services just for Maori; no more car parks just for disabled people; no more hip operations just for people who need hip operations.
Relegalise illegal legal highs. The recent government crackdown on these products was overzealous, and there is no reason that perfectly legal substances should be illegal. (Read more)
Make Wellington airport safer by moving it to Christchurch.
Defend the traditional institution of marriage as the union between one man and one volumetric flask.
Reform the Justice system so that every citizen is required to prove why they shouldn’t be in prison.
Issue a formal apology to Australia’s aboriginal population.
Maintain New Zealand’s long-term commitment to free nuclear energy.
Seek to acquire new government assets, such as Bonus Bonds and a timeshare, and be proactive in exploring new economic opportunities, including some advertisements that suggest we could make $5,000 a week online.
Ice cream.
Lower greenhouse gas emissions by placing restrictions on the number of greenhouses, and greater obligations upon trees to absorb carbon dioxide.
Bring ultra-fast broadband access to the majority of rural New Zealand by 2016 and dial-up to Invercargill by 2017.
Hold on a national referendum on the value of referenda. (Read more)
Replace New Zealand’s national anthem with the theme song from the 1996 film Space Jam, by Quad City DJs. A Maori version of Space Jam shall be composed to be sung alongside the English version.
Ban all “satire” or anything claiming to be “satire.” It has been given a chance, but too often has it proven to be offensive and difficult to grasp. No one should be made to feel upset or challenged for the sake of “jokes” and “laughter.”
