Kererū weekly values focus this week was Mahi Tahi.

In the Kererū team we have been doing Pick-A-Path stories to develop our understanding of School Value Mahi Tahi (We Collaborate). A Pick-A-Path is a story in which you can pick your own story by picking different options for a different storyline. When it comes to making a Pick-A-Path story, there are a few shortcuts that come in very handy, such as, ‘Ctrl + K’ ‘Ctrl + C’ and ‘Ctrl + V’. Ctrl + K is the most helpful shortcut when making a Pick-A-Path story because it links a slide to another slide. When linking a slide to a slide you need to remember what slides already have stuff on them because if you link a slide to a slide that already has something on it then if you try to show it to someone it will all be messed up. Ctrl + C copies the highlighted text/image and with Ctrl + V you can paste the text/image you just copied onto a different slide. You can use pictures to help explain what each option is, and make more sense then the writing itself.

The Pick-A-Path topics can be about anything like a treasure hunt, your life, a game etc…. Planning makes it a lot easier and by a lot, I mean a lot! Also planning makes your Pick-A-Path a much better quality one. It is a lot better with two people because your story could never end or it could go in a loop! A Pick-A-Path can be an assignment in college or in early 20s, so it's very important to learn what one is. And it can be a job writing Pick-A-Path books, you’ll also earn a lot of money. For example, some goosebumps books. You can do Pick-A-Path stories in books, or on google slides. (that's when linking slides come in handy). A Pick-A-Path can sometimes describe you because different personalities will make you choose different paths, for example if you like staying safe then you would pick a safe path or if you like taking risks then you’ll probably pick a risky Path. Be warned that one mistake would ruin the whole thing….
