Week 3 reflection

This week 10Ch learned two new games lacrosse and Tt Uru,Ki O Rahi and Horohopu. I think 10Ch loved learning these new games I especially liked playing them. I also learned about testing to see if a website is credible using the crap test. I really enjoyed playing the new games I learned. Getting used to the new games was a bit of a challenge especially in lacrosse, Our class really struggled to pick up to the ball and passing it to each other.I developed skills like playing fair socialising with class mates i don't talk to.

Palin

Palin is a stick and ball game originating in southern Chile and southwestern Argentina by the Mapuche People.There is a ritual celebration accompanied by prayers, dances and feasting meant to fortify both individual and communal relationships. It can be played between two friendly communities or sometimes to settle differences between antagonistic tribes, thus avoiding the armed conflict.

This past week 10Ch combined Sports and English to study new games and play them the game we studied this week was a game called plain. I learned about the culture of the Mapuche people and when they used Palin, The Mapuche people played Palin to stay fit for war, after funerals and to resolve conflicts.

I enjoyed learning the new game and experiencing it with my class. However the freezing weather was a challenge because we had to walk down to our local beach and find sticks to use in the game, then the next day, when we played Palin it was freezing as well. Eventually I just got over the cold and played the game.

Vr and augmented reality

Today in English we have been learning about Vr and augmented reality.  We have also been studying films that have augmented and Vr in them,Hunger games and Uncanny valley. So what is augmented reality? Augmented reality is when a computer generated image is displayed in our own world. This happens in The Hunger Games when the game makers create things in the arena that the characters fight in. Virtual reality is a three dimensional simulation/environment that we can interact with. In Uncanny Valley the characters enter the virtual reality world via the nose ring, where everything they see is fake.
