Learning In The Making Conference 2015 Reflection

Last week on the 11th of September Ngatea Primary School had the Learning In The Making Conference. We started the day off with a Skype with Andrew Cowie he talked to us about cyberbullying, it was a very interesting speech at the start there was a monkey that found a camera crews gear and he took a Selfie with their camera. The Learning In The Making Conference is a conference that has lots of different workshops and presenters, you can choose to be a presenter or not, there were some teacher presenters as well. I went to these four workshops that I went to were shell collage, sharpie tie dye, and a double session of paper mache. My favourite workshop was sharpie tie dye. Sharpie tie dye was my favourite because I really enjoyed drawing on my patterns and the dropping a few drops of rubbing alcohol on to it and watching in spead over the cup. My other favourite one was paper mache, during the session I managed to create an owl for my cousin it is pink and has lots of different textures and colours. At of people learned a great lesson "do NOT trust little children with sand the five seconds that the presenter is gone BOOM! Sand everywhere! I decided to help tidy it up with the presenters I felt a bit bad for them. At the end of the day I got awarded with a chocolate fish for helping tidying up. I really enjoyed the day I hope we have it again next year!
