Scams and Phishing

 On the 21st of September Te Ngahere did a cybersmart challenge about scams and phishing, We got given photo’s of emails and pop up to decide if they were legit or fake.  Scams and Phishing is when someone tries to get personal information or tricks you into clicking something that is not what they say it is, it also means that if you share your personal details on the wrong site they can log into your account and access your personal information. You can tell if something is legit or fake by 1. Looking at the padlock on the top right corner of your screen and checking if it has a red line on it because If it does it means its not secure.   2. If you get a pop up it is always fake because It is just phishing for your personal information 3. Always check  their email address and see if something is off about it like Google spelt with zeros. To keep safe you always check if it is legit or fake and never give any site your personal details unless it is run by your teacher or adult.  It was hard to understand how to see if something is legit or fake so I asked someone to help me to understand. 

Can you identify if something is legit or fake? 

Guess The Book

 During lockdown My friend Azure and I meet up on Google meets and created a guess the book slide for our class to guess. We made it because we thought that it would be harder than a guess the movie, some of the books are also movies. On our last lockdown Google meet I asked If I could still share the guess the book challenge because Azure wasn’t there. Our class loved the book challenge but they did find some of them hard. It was hard because we sort of struggled finding books that our class could guess but we didn’t give up. We used emojis to symbolize what book they were guessing. 

Do you think you’ll be good at guessing the books?  How many books do you think you will get right?

Passion Project

 During Lockdown Te Ngahere  has been doing a really fun subject called passion project. Passion project is a subject where you come up with things you want to do and then work on them until you complete it. I came up with a lot of ideas for my passion project I have almost completed them all but I have one more to do. The first one was to bet my Mum in speed 2 times in a row and I did, I also completed making a lemon custard cake and using the cartoon filter on a phone. The hardest one to complete was beating Mum at speed but I never gave up and kept trying. I still have to bet my big brother in handball 2 times in a row.  

What would be your passion project?
