Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori - Shapes and colour bingo

We normally do number bingo with numbers from 1 - 75. This is really only because that is the highest number our online bingo caller web based app lets us go to. Here is a link to the site we use https://letsplaybingo.io/

Today we spent a long time creating different shapes and making them a range of colours. This actually took so long that Ms Corbett had to make a master bingo template because we were running out of time.

We decided to have a shared template with all of the coloured shapes already available on the side. We spent 15 minutes as a group contributing different shapes to the template.

Today I learned that in Google Sheets I can insert a Google Drawing through "Insert" on the menu and you can draw and colour the shape there and then. Then you can insert directly into the chosen cell. It is way faster than the way I have been doing it. Samuel shared his screen and showed me in today's lesson. Thanks Samuel.

Here is a screenshot of our contributions to our shared master template.

Earlier, I chose a translation that I thought was dragon in a class activity today. The fluent Cantonese and Mandarin speakers in my class did not recognise the symbol. I was embarrassed that I had made a mistake which is one of the pitfalls of cross-cultural analysis. There are always positive outcomes for every situation and we were able to have a discussion about where the symbol may have originated. Another positive outcome is that I am extremely aware of my cultural limitations. So this will result in me asking more questions, seeking more input from experts in our class and in the community. As you can see, I was not confident enough in what I found on the internet to use it in my blog title. An opportunity for further learning. One of the challenges this week is to; LEARN - the signs o...
