Rocketeer

 For the past few weeks, my class was writing a narrative about the Rocketeer. We watched a short film, and we had to create it as a narrative for our writing.

I enjoyed writing the 'Rocketeer'. I really liked watching the film as well. I also really liked adding some descriptive language. 

I didn't really find anything tricky.

Staying Sunsmart

 For the past few days in cybersmart, we were learning how to make a GIF in Canva. Canva is really easy to use, and it could be used for about anything!

I enjoyed creating the GIF. It was really fun experimenting with the backgrounds, GIFs, settings and all sorts of things.

I didn't really find anything tricky.

Here is my GIF!

Parihaka Feather

 For the past week for reading, my class was learning how to identify the main points. We have been learning about Parihaka. We had to read 2-3 texts, and watch 2 videos about Parihaka.

We had to create a feather with words that are related/similar to the word 'peace'. I enjoyed creating and adding in the words.

I didn't really find anything tricky.

Here is my feather!

All Saints Day

 Today is all Saints day. All Saints day is when you celebrate and remember saints who haved passed on into heaven. Because of this special day, our teacher has assigned us a special task. The task was to create a slide or google drawing about the saints. There were some notes on the whiteboard we could add onto our slides. 

I enjoyed creating the slide and learning about the saints and their special day. I really liked decorating the slide  with pictures.

I didn't really find anything tricky.

Here is my slide!

Come Down Golden Pick a Path

 Today I was making a pick-a-path in Google slides. It was some questions about Come Down Golden. Come Down Golden is a story me and my group is reading.

I enjoyed making the pick-a-path on google slides. I liked decorating the slides, picking the font and looking for the pictures.

I found coming up with questions a little tricky because I didn't really think of many. 

October Relfection

 Today we were reflectig on October. I have really enjoyed this month because of the fun things me and my class have done.

I enjoyed filling the form in. I enjoyed filling in the writing bit the most, because I could link my writing blog as well.

I didn't really find anything tricky.

Frida Kahlo Art

 For the past few weeks, my class was painting. The painting was a picture of a woman named 'Frida Kahlo'. She was a mexcian painter that painted self portraits. In her portraits, she usually painted herself with bushy eyebrows and moustaches. Did you know she had polio?

We used lots of colourful paints to paint her face. To make the flower(s) on her head, we used tissue paper. We folded the tissue paper back and forth like a fan. Then, we stapled the middle and then fanned the paper out to make it look like a flower.

I enjoyed painting Frida Kahlo and making the flowers. I also liked learning about Frida Kahlo and her life as a painter.

I didn't find anything tricky.
