Bradley represented Sommerville Special School at today's Manaiakalani  Presentation Day. One student from each of the Manaiakalani Schools talked to a group of important guests about how they use technology to help them learn.

Bradley gave a speech and presented a slideshow that explained how he used his Chromebook and a range of Google Apps to help him write and publish a story.

Tonights Maths homework is to count to infinity ...

What is Infinity?

Infinity ...
	... it's not big ...
	... it's not huge ...
	... it's not tremendously large ...
	... it's not extremely humongously enormous ...
	... it's ...

Endless!

Infinity has no end

Infinity is the idea of something that has no end.

In our world we don't have anything like it. So we imagine traveling on and on, trying hard to get there, but that is not actually infinity.

So don't think like that (it just hurts your brain!). Just think "endless", or "boundless".

If there is no reason something should stop, then it is infinite.

Infinity does not grow

Infinity is not "getting larger", it is already fully formed.

Sometimes people (including me) say it "goes on and on" which sounds like it is growing somehow. But infinity does not do anything, it just is.

Infinity is not a real number

Infinity is not a real number, it is an idea. An idea of something without an end.

Infinity cannot be measured.

Even these faraway galaxies can't compete with infinity.

Shopping Stories

We looked at the Shopping Story Writing Plan assignment and then we practiced writing stories with our language groups to get good at writing a story with an introduction, middle and end.

My Toyworld Shopping Story By the Yellow Group

Our group is going to Toyworld to buy a transformers toy.

We walk in and we are looking for a transformer toy. The transformer jumped off the shelf and landed on Aidan’s head. The transformer had his legs and arms open. Aidan yelled “Help!”

Lauren got flying powers, she grabbed Aidan and the transformer. She flew him to his home.

Lost in Toy World By the Green Group

My class went to Toy World to buy toys. We caught the bus to Sylvia Park. We felt excited.

Keenen said “We have to stay together so we don’t get lost.” The students said “Ok” and then ran to buy the games.

The students ran to buy the leggo.

The students ran to buy the dolls.

The students ran to buy the My Little Ponies.

The students ran to buy the Teddy Bears.

The students ran to buy the Transformers.

Keenen was left by himself. “Help I have lost the students! I know" said Keenen “ I have the money. I will meet them by the checkout and pay for our toys.”

My Warehouse Story By the Purple Group

Our class walked into The Warehouse.

We looked around and something interesting. We saw some Playstation 3 games. There was a special on the Playstation 3 games. The special was that if you buy one game you will get another game for free.

We decided not to buy a game because we did not have enough money.

Now we have practiced writing with our Language Group we are going to write some Shopping Stories by ourselves.

Card Games

  

We are learning to play some card games to improve our maths and social skills.
