Art colouring book

 Today we had Cybersmart  we were having fun with the kick starter on the 2020 SLJ. We had to pick a picture we wanted and coloured it.

This is the original copy of the picture that I have choosen!

This is my version of the picture that I have chosen!

As you can see I used most of the original colours but I did add yellow and put them in different spaces. I am proud of myself because I have made a really good picture and I think that the flowers pop because there is a dark background and they are bright flowers. I started by choosing out the colours I wanted. I chose pink, yellow, dark Turquoise, Dark green, and a slightly darker green. Then I put the colours on the spots that I felt they looked good in. I tried to put the dark green in the vines so in looks like stems. I hope you enjoyed looking at my blog post. Have you ever tried out this art colouring website before? How did your picture turn out?

Paper helicopter

                    Paper helicopter   

We had a challenge with a couple of people at a time to see who has got the best helicopter.

   

These are the paper helicopters we made for a reading task at school because it was related to the story. I had to get a 1x10 inches strip of paper and a paperclip. We had to fold the paper in half and fold the flaps down after that we had to fold the other end of the helicopter 2 inches up and then put a paperclip on the end. I am proud of it because it spins really well. It was really cool seeing everybody spinning the helicopters.

Mr Kinane

                                                    Coding with Mr Kinane

This is what it would look like if my group finished but we didn't. We got two micro bits, a Cricket, some sort of spinning device and two battery packs. We got a cup and a straw the straw acting like the garage door opener. We had to down a code onto the micro bits and set them to any angles we wanted and then it would work like this one.

                      

Mr Kinane

This is Mr Kinane he was the person who brought all the equipment we used and helped us if we were stuck.

                                           

Planting with Sarah

 Today my class was planting with our Teachers friend Sarah.

Here is a picture of me planting I am the girl beside Sarah in the pink jacket. We were planting Toe Toe and Mountain Akeake. First we got soil and put them into the containers and sprinkled the Mountain Akeake onto the soil. We had to do two and make sure we had spread it out so that when they grow to be big they will not push on each other to much. Next we put the Toe Toe on the soil and covered it up with soil on all the trays. We had to make sure that they were going to grow so we used a spray bottle with water in it and ran down to the propagation tunnel to put them in. We enjoyed planting the plants and we can't wait until they are fully grown. I am proud because I had learned new plant's.

Daffodil art

 

This is my Daffidol art. I did the by getting three printed pictures and coloured it in with pastels. After I did that I smuged it with my finger. Then once I finished all of my pictures I cut it out and glued it on the black paper. We got to paint with cotton buds and we had to dry it. Then the assistant teacher Chris put words on it and we were finished. I am proud of it because I like the way the pastels looked with the daffidols.

My sea Collage

This is my Collage about the sea. I did this by getting colours from explore and masked them into shapes. I got the back ground and animal from explore. I am proud of it because I had only made to Collages in my life and I am surprised that I can do something like this. I did it because we have been doing one everyday and I wanted to do water because our body is mostly made of water. I have made a Starwhale inside my custom sea.

Barrier game

This is a picture of our barrier challenge. This is how it worked.  We had a buddy and we were put with our chrome books touching so that you won't see each others screen. We got given a grid and the other person (partner) got pictures on a grid. I had to direct my partner clearly so that she could put the pictures the right place on the grid. We swapped around and this is one of mine that I did. I got every thing except a little thing on the pirate and the parrot in the right place. I'm proud because I gave clear directions and had a really good grid when my buddy Olivia explained it to me.

Here is a picture of my grid and the whole class doing the barrier game. Have you ever done a barrier challenge before?

Enviroschools

We did this because our teacher thought is was a good idea to make the schools Environment look a little more better. We had the job of weeding all the weeds and organising the plants that are the same together. I'm proud because we are all helping our schools environment. We id it by shifting stuff longways and making more space for plants.

Bubble animation with Violet

I did this because we had do get a buddy from Ruma Kotuku and picture them in or on a bubble where ever they want. Then the teacher decided to turn it into a animation. I did this by taking pictures and ctrl c v to get the same slide then I rotate it so it will turn into a big animation in the end. I am proud of it because the first animation I did took 1 week and this one took ten minutes. Violet showed me how to draw on her iPad by changing colours to erasing them.

Book creator

 I'm doing an example on how to use book creator. I did it because I wanted people to discover book creator and have fun like me. I learn't that you can record your voice and use people from programmes like family the Simpsons I also learn't that it helps with our quality conversations. I did it for Cybersmart because Mrs Minehan wanted us to do this week. Have you ever used book creator?

The plastic free challenge

I did this blog post about the plastic free challenge because if all the schools in NZ will do it then we could make a difference. It makes a difference because if we don't use much of it then we won't produce much more plastic. I challenge my class to do the plastic free challenge and any other TUHI ATU TUHI MAI classes to try it too.

Positive blog comments

These are quality blog comments. But the ones with a thumb down are not quality because they might not be

My Ship creation

This is my ship creation. It is called the Sea Basher because bashes against all the waves and does not end up in any mishaps. I did it because for a reading task. we had to make up our own custom boat. I have made a boat that will never ever sink because it is small and steady over waves. I did it by making a Pixle Editor ocean waves with Gradient and pencil for the white pieces. After I just made up a random design and put it all together after captions.

Learning about some Science

 I thought the powder would turn in to Crystals or slime. I had to pour water with Jack T into the powder and every time it kept on getting bigger and bigger and the Teacher put in Sodium (salt) and it dissolved it back into water . I observed it growing bigger than it started of from a tiny bit of powder. I had learnt that Science is really cool and I want to do more studies on Science. I was blown away from what I was watching when it was getting bigger JackT and I managed to get 37 scoops of water in and then it started to overflow.

Animation

I have created a animation about Donald Trump. I created it at School for CyberSmart, I created it by removing the background and putting it in a slide and then I do it to a different picture and keep screen shooting little parts and it turns into a funny tiger. I learn't that you can make the increase on the slide smaller to make it look better. I'm proud of it because I had never really done an animation before. Have you ever done an Animation?

Story map

This is my story map. I have created this because it is a part of all my reading tasks it's also good because you retell about what you have read. I am proud of it because I liked the pictures that I made. I had learn't that I for the best should not do anything to dangerous if I do I will be care full.
He was 15 when he had his first race.

Limerick

These are my Limericks I did these for fun and I learnt what limericks actually were.  I did these by thinking of rhyming words and put them all together but you can only have five lines. I had to put in pictures on one and made sure it was funny. A Limerick is when the first, second and Fifth rhyme and the third and fourth ones rhyme.

Pepeha

Kia, Ora everyone this is my Pepeha I did this so that when I meet someone new I can tell them a little about myself. I did this by putting my name where I lived when I was born currently and where I live now. Have you ever done a Pepeha before?

Sumo paint

The is the Fox I made using Sumo paint. These are all the tools I used.

I used the curve tool to make all the curves. I used the coloured squares so then I can change the colours when I draw something. I used the brush to get the insides coloured. I also used the eraser because you won't get it first try. I liked doing it because you get to experiment with all the different tools and colours. If you want to experiment on sumo paint too then you need to search up sumopaint.com/flash/    and do what ever you want.

St Johns

Today the whole class had St Johns. We all got to have a turn at giving each other a dressing and a bandage around a plastic knife.

This my finishing product with my assistant Renny. The bandage had to be tight enough to fit about two fingers under.

Here is a picture of Renny wrapping the bandage around my knee.

Animoto me and my family

Tangrams

Here are my Tangrams I did. Tangrams are things where you have put the shapes and rotate, flip and fit them in the figure like for example all of these.

Gnocchi making

Mum and I decided to make gnocchi for the first time ever. First we had to roast the potatoes, then when the were cooled a little bit mum cut them in half and scooped the middle out. It was my job to push the potato through the sieve While mum roasted the skins and made the tomato sauce. After we mixed all the ingredients in with the potato we then kneaded the dough and rolled it out and cut it into pieces. Then mum cooked it and put it all together and we ate it and it was delicious!

My Lego animals

These are my animals out of Lego and they took two hours to make. I have a sheep that has no eyes I have a snake and a elephant and when I was making them I could not fin the right pieces so I had to extend them with smaller pieces.

My Tessellation art

This is my Tessellation art that I made at school. What you need to do so you can do this is, a big piece of paper, a little square of paper, your choice of two or three coloured pencils, something to cut with, a vivid and tape . You make it by getting the little bit of paper and colour one side with a regular pencil then cut a pattern that you can cut out and put on the opposite side. Then you trace it out on the big piece of paper with a regular pencil. After you have traced it with the pencil you trace over the pencil with vivid and then you colour them in with your coloured  pencils.

Writing questions

These are the questions that I had to do for writing. What I had to do was answer all of the them that were on the chart about a troll.

Question time!

What do you think the troll is thinking?

He was going to take the roof off the house.

Do you think he is a mean or a kind troll? Why?

I think the troll is mean because he was taking the roof of somebody else's house.

What are the people doing when they have seen the troll?

They ran and drove away because they were all scared of the troll.

Would you try to catch him or talk to him?

I would try to catch him so then I could talk to him because he didn’t mean to do what he did and he could apologise to the owner of the house.

Where do you think the troll has come from?

I think that he was a mountain that had trees on his back.

What do you think the rope around the troll’s waist is for?

For decoration?

Story map

This is my story map for this week. I have learn't that we call times like 1153 the middle ages. I also learn't that in  that  time people were put to death if they were caught trying to steal food when they were forced to leave their farm. This is my story board about it .Xanthe.

Story map

One of the reading tasks this week in my class was to make a picture and sentence about each paragraph of the story.

Math enlargement

This week my class has been doing maths enlargements. As you can see all you need to do is double the shape so if I had four it would be four I add on so it would be eight.

SLJ Week 1 Day 5 Activity 1

I think my family is important because mum& dad brought the house that i live in right now and my brother & sister keep me doing something. I also thing school is important because if i didn't go to school I would not be as smart. The last thing that is important to me is my health and nature because trees give us air.
