Hi, welcome to my blog.

This is the Christchurch art gallery :

And this is Tumu:

On Monday we got the opportunity to go to there. The first bus left at 9:30, which had tumu 1 on it. (That would normally be Mrs Carney’s class but the teachers switched it up and Miss Gill took them. They came back around 11:00-11:30 am, I’m in tumu two and Mrs Carney took us to the art gallery, our bus took of around 12:00 pm, when three of my other friends and I saw the bus we immediately saw the four seater that we sprinted to get, when we arrived at the gallery we were around 10 minutes early so we just played outside on the grass, when we got in we had two lovely instructors who showed us two mesmerising painting both by the artist Louise Henderson, the first one they showed us was called December which was an abstract style painting that looked like this:

The next one they showed was another Louise Henderson abstract painting but this one was called November and looked like this: The lady doing the tour told us that one of the paintings were missing, so we got to make one! She told us that we can trace our initials, mine is L.R.F. We got to mix and match colours and make our own, the colours that I chose were purple,green and blue, in the end I looked a bit silly because the colours were darker then I intended but still looked fine, when we were done we cleaned up and washed our hand and when i tell you he bathrooms were fancy I mean it, everything was on the wall and the soap dispenser was so cool.

Here are some photos of what the Experience looked like (these are not of me):

We are so grateful that they let us come and look and make art. This was a great experience for not only me but the rest of my hub!

Have you ever gone here!

 

 

Hi, welcome to or back to my blog.

Today’s blog is going to be about this weeks maths create. We have a some very fun maths create recently, but this week we got set with a harder yet fun task, we had to fill up a house with furniture and different appliances. Our budget was 60,00, but our teacher Mr.T made Kohia’s budget 30,00 which I thought was a good price range. Here is a layout of the house had to fill: its a bit blury but it has one garage+ laundry room, two bathrooms (one in the on-sweat), four bedrooms, one lounge and dinning room+ kitchen and. You can also get outdoor furniture but it does not show that on the plan of the house.

Here is the list of stuff we had to buy:

You could go to any store you wanted, for my furniture I mostly went to Moka for furniture and for decor I mostly went to Kmart.

In total I spent: $24,141.14, wow that is a lot of 1’s and 4’s. Here is the slide I put everything on if you want to see what I ended up buying:

Thanks for reading my blog post, Would you live in this house?

Hi, welcome back to my blog. This week we had a very fun maths create. We had to plan a party with a budget of $260.

First we had to pick a cake to make and buy all the ingredients for the cake. I picked a quick and easy birthday cake and got all my ingredients from Packnsave, Countdown and New World (I mostly got them from Packnsave and Countdown tough).

Then we had to plan out food that we would have. I spent about $60 (59.94). Then I had to plan out what activates we would do. We had to be out of the house for at least an hour, so I decided to go to the park for an hour, (which is free). I spent most of the rest of my money on actives, I got some white t-shirts and fabric pens, to make some of our own t-shirts, then I got an 8 pack of bubble wands for only $2.50! also got 8 face masks for $28. I thought that will be enough activates for 2 hours. I spent $80.05 on this so now its time to make some goody bags.

I got some cheap paper goody bags to put the stuff in from Kmart for $2.50, first I got 2 packs of lip mask (4 in each pack).That was $24. Then I got Christmas pens ($1.50 each) and spent $12 on that. Every got person got a bag of lollies each (50 cents a bag of lollies), I spent $4 on that. I got a 4 pack of Hi-chew which are $5 a bag, and I had to get since there were 8 people coming to my party and the pack only had 4. Last thing I put there was headbands which were about $1.10 each. I had finally complete my party which altogether was $202.45.

Thanks for reading about this blog. If you would like to see the slide put all the details of the party on look below this:

Would you go my party?

Yesterday we had a visit from the Science Roadshow. The focus of the session was Sound Waves.

Some of the main messages about Sound Waves were how people hear different noises ow it travels because we did a little test with a noise that went so high pitched that we could hear it, it went up to about 20,000 before we couldn’t hear anymore, did you know that whales can hear up 150,000!

Something I enjoyed the most was the spinning mirror because it could make you really tall or really short and we looked funny here is a photo with it:

My favourite part of the Science Roadshow was when they tried the fire because they used a special type of glass that dosent burn, but we thought it was normal glass so he put a glove on his hand but then he put it on the wrong hand and we all thought his hand was going to burn off but no, it was just the glass that doesn’t burn.

Something I will take away from this visit was that whales have the best hearing! this is so cool because they are underwater  but still can hear better than us.

Who can hear better us or whales?

This week on Tuesday we went to St Mary’s Catholic Cathedral for St Francis’ feast day, his feast day is celebrated on the 4th of October but we were on school holidays so we could not celebrate. We sang a few songs and did some prayers, my favourite thing we learnt about was how the priest said to get of our phones and computers and just go outside, I thought that was really nice since St Francis loved nature.

When we got back from school we got to eat some baking/food that people had bought in because we had to bring in food from our cultures. There was such yummy food my personal favourites were Adriana’s brownies and Milas lollie cake. After that we got to do some activities I did ping-pong, dodge-ball, kio-rahi and a kahoot. After all our games i was so tired and excited to go home.

Thank for reading this weeks blog.

Do you think this sounds fun?

Hey everyone, Welcome back to my blog,

Hey everyone! Welcome back to my blog

This week we have been learning about Malala Yousafzai, and with that learning we know that she wrote an auto biography called I Am Malala. Miss Gill told us that she has a template for us for our own auto biography. I thought at first this would be super easy because I already know what I want to be when I am older, but some of the questions are hard like “Early Childhood and Family Information”, Like how am I supposed to now!?

If you want to see my auto biography, Click on this picture:

Welcome back to my blog!,

This weeks question for my maths board was 159+57, first thing I thought when i saw I 159 was rounding it up to 160, so thats what did, I also did it to the 57, so my two new numbers were 160 and 60, I added 40 onto the 160 which would be 200 and then add on 20 because I know that there is  20 left because 40+20 is 60. now that i had added the 20 on I had 220, but I still have to take away the extra numbers from when I rounded up which are 1 and 3 which together is 4 so I too away 4 from 220 which gives my  answer 216.

How would you work this out?

The driving question for our PBL over Term 2 and part of this Term has been, “How can we as performing artists communicate positive messages to an audience?”

We learnt about The Arts, in particular the elements of Dance, Drama and Music. We read a number of fables and fairy tales and learnt about their positive message. We then took this learning and applied it to our own play writing script. 

In my group there was Claire.L, Leo Wall and Leo Wilson, we planned out what our script, and fairy tale was going to be The Three Little Pigs. Click here to see our script and here to see our planning document  

Once we had planned our ideas, we started to write our play writing script. The fairy tale script is based on is The Three Little Pigs. The positive message that we wanted the audience to take away was hard work pays of in the end.

The Google Slide shows everyone’s performance in Tumu, my group’s performance is on slide 17

Something that I enjoyed about this project was working with people I’ve never worked with before and getting the chance to film.

 Something that I found challenging or would change about this project was trying to write the script because we all had to work collaboratively on a document at once.

I am most proud of this project because we tried are hardest to work altogether and get along

What do you think of our play?
