New Zealand Birds Slide

We were learning about the different types of birds in New Zealand, the Native birds, the Endemic birds and the introduced birds. Our instructions were: working in your 'Morere' groups, complete the activity about NZ birds using the website and video below. Below it was a link to a website that had a lot of things about NZ birds, here is the link: Native, Endemic & Introduced birds. The slide I was working on was the one about introduced birds, I got most of the information from the website.

I found it easy to meet the deadline for finishing my slide, and doing the polyline was easy too with some help from Vinny. We also created a slide to display all of our polylines, the one I made was a blackbird (an introduced bird)

I found it challenging to get all the names of the birds to fit in the place that looked the best. First I started with them on the side then it took me about fifteen mins approx to get them beside the photos of the birds (Pheasant, Peacock/Peahen, House Sparrow, Blackbird, Starling and Mallard.) Then I decided that it did not look quite titleish enough so I underlined them but it was not a good look to have it beside so then I made it above the photos. That was covering the heads of my birds so I made it below and thankfully that did look nice so I kept it until just now when I made it bold and un underlined it.

Next time I will use the builders saying my Dad told me in my learning because it will definitely help. The saying is: Measure twice cut once. It basically means check or rethink twice and do it once. It will help with the part I thought hard and I mean to use it next time.
