Student Toolkits! 👦👧

                                             👬Hi blogging audience! My post is all about...👭
                                                         Student Toolkits! Yes you guessed it!

24 people got chosen to go to the Student Toolkits on Thursday 17th August (obviously) 2017. Some of the people included me, Dora and Joyce, my friends. It was held at New Windsor School. When we first entered we went to the auditorium and got our name badges with our sessions and names on them. There was this SUPER cool coding challenge at first, (I thought it was going to be one of those boring coding challenges, but turns out it wasn't) it was to get Sphero balls around cones and come back, it was a race. Sphero balls are these small robots that light up different colours. I've played with Sphero balls before at MOTAT in Auckland New Zealand. Afterwards we got to go to our first session, it was Powtoon. Powtoon is when you have a slideshow and get to decorate, it is very fun and cool. I might have my slideshow put at the bottom. Our second session was Prodigy. We have already played Prodigy before, I taught my friends how to get a home account because apparently Joyce (who introduced the game to me) doesn't even have a account, why you might ask is because her sister has a account! Joyce is currently level 35 and I am level 26. It was so much fun! After lunch we had a problem solving challenge, it was very boring to watch so I decided to work on my Powtoon. Then we put our name card/ID into a box for the draw, one person from each school got a chromecast, Stevie-lee got it from our school. Then it was time to do the draw for the presenters, you got lots of cool stuff if you were one of the three people to get a goody bag, you got some tape, decorative tape, a photo album and a sphere-o ball!🔮

I felt super excited about it that day, it was so fun! I didn't have any difficulties with anything even when the presenters from Christ the King School didn't lead us through the process and so we did most of the learning. It was very self explanatory.👑

Here are some videos of our feedback, there may be some from other schools!👦👧👨👩
