Kiwi Can

For kiwi can this week we talked about positive communication, the games that we played were based around positive communication. The two games that we played was called up and down, the way on how you play it is there are cones and you compete against others to flip the cones around. The person with the most flipped cones wins. Our activity was called street fighter, we had to follow a certain amount of actions using numbers, e.g. when someone shouts 5 we do a certain action.

Tech Reflection - Making Noises

For tech this week we worked with our mbots once again to finish of a slide about how to code flashing lights into the mbot. After that we made a video about us coding flashing lights into our mbots. After flashing the lights we got onto making noises, and just the same as last time we had to do a slide again about how to use the coding to make noises, a little challenge we chose to do was to make the happy birthday song using the sound coding.
