Auckland Museum



Day 1 Yesterday the extension group and a few others went to the Auckland Museum. It was a great experience to visit the most precious art effects from the olden days and from when Maori people use to travel and live in New Zealand. But before we saw all of the art effects. We went to a room with a lady called Wendy. Once we got into the room I thought we would be sitting on the ground, but instead we got to sit on bean bags and comfy chairs. Then Wendy introduced two lady's but I would tell you there name but I forgot. The two ladies were telling us about the ocean and the rocky shore. Then we got to play a game. We had to pick two pieces of paper. The word that I got was between and up. Once we picked our words we had to decide if it would be put in the ocean or in the rocky shore. After the game, we got to look at actual creatures from the sea and the rocky shore. Such as starfishes, coral, mussel, jelly fish and much more. Then we got into our groups and then the Wendy told use what station we would be at. Oh, and by the way, there were three activities. The first was similar to scratch but instead of creating a character we had to guide a robot to the end. The second activity was that we had to draw on an app called paint 3d. It's when you have to create a character or an animal and press a button and it uses the your character or animal and puts it in front of you on camera.  Then the third was my favourite it was called VR world. VR world is short for saying Visual Reality. My group started at the paint 3D app. I finished my character like ten minutes later. Then My group went to the VR world activity it was really fun for me but it gave me a headache. Then I went to the Robot part. We had to be in two groups. I was with Madison. We were kind of struggling. After that we had lunch I kind of liked it. After lunch my group and Miss Kathy's group went around the Museum. It was fun I guess. But I was so excited to go into the volcano room, but when it erupted there was only two eruptions. Then we had to meet in the room. I enjoyed the first day at the Museum.


Day 2

On Tuesday  extension group and a few others went to the Auckland Museum again. This time we actually got to work on VR world and paint 3D and we got to do coding with the robot's. I was in the VR world. When we started to work on it. Oh and by the way we had to draw the rockey shore. After a while it when my group did the rocks it looked like mount scribbles. Then when my group finished we just did scratch on the Ipads. When it was all over we had to say goodbye. I enjoyed the last day at the museum.
