Hey guys! So here is another blog post for today! And it's about what happens when we litter and it gets into our oceans. I found this extremely interesting, kind of gruesome, and definitely shocking! Have you ever seen a piece of rubbish on the beach or even in the water? Today I made an animation on what happens when our rubbish gets into our oceans. It was an inquiry task and I really enjoyed doing it!

Next time you see plastic in the water..π
Fantastic Fantasy!π
Kia Ora everyone! Yesterday we learned about the fantasy genre! Fantasy has to be one of my favourite genres of all time because you can really use your imagination and just explore! Also, I'm really fascinated by mythical creatures! So this task was quite fun and It also was kind of hard. We had to name all the cliches in a fantasy book, I chose Harry Potter because it's a series of books I have already read and It also consists of so many cliches. The second part of this task was coming up with a whole new Harry Potter character!? It was really really hard because Harry Potter is already so packed with information and it's quite perfect already. The aim of creating this character is to for him/her to have an impact on the story and mine certainly did! Here is my work!
WHO WILL WIN!?π¬
Hey guys! Welcome back to my blog, so on Wednesday Mr Shaw's literacy group was given the task of dressing up as Alien a Sci-fi villain, or just something extremely weird! It was a lot of fun. When I first heard the task I was like OH NO! Because It was going to be so embarrassing. And to be honest it kind of was...I got my inspiration for the outfit from looking in the fridge and seeing a carton of eggs. The most enjoyable part was when we were taking the picture and about every time we were about to take the photo I started laughing! And then my least favorite part was actually putting the photo on the slide for everyone to see. Have you ever turned yourself into an alien? If you did what would your name be? Mine was Weird Alien Creature! It was a really fun task and every day we learn about a new genre, today was Sci-Fi. Anyway here is the picture!
Well umm....did you laugh? It's pretty hard not to with my face like that! Who do you think will win?Thursday, August 19, 2021
I'm never gonna go in a lake AGAIN! πΆ
Are you in lockdown too? Kia ora. Well, the Corona virus is back! But this time worse...I am stuck at home AGAIN!!! I really don't enjoy distance learning, because I love my friends and teachers and I just don't like being stuck at home and really just flopping on the couch. So today my literacy distance learning task was to create a ghost horror story that showcases some of the genre conventions. This was really fun for me and I enjoyed being imaginative. It reminded me of the ghost stories my nanny has told me...some of them are not as scary as others...anyway, my story is called Row Boat and I really hope you enjoy reading it.

Jazzy Jasmine!π
If you auditioned for a part who would you want to be? Hello Bloggers! I just did one of the most exciting things I have ever done in my entire life! I performed in front of over 100 people! I am really proud of what I did and to be honest, I wouldn't be as confident as I am now if I didn't do the production! I also want to shout out to Mrs. Osborn, Mrs. Davis, Miss Smith, and Roberts for basically organizing and doing EVERYTHING for everyone! It was really fun and amazing so thank you! Doing this made me feel really amazing inside and It gave me confidence in myself for once! Everyone who auditioned was so brave and everyone was amazing too! I was in cast Rua, there are two casts Tahi and Rua, we performed on 2 different nights each. Here are some photos I hope you enjoy! We had so much fun together and I'm really sad to see it go! I made so many good friends and even talked to people I would never talk to if they were not in production. I just want to say one thing....Give everything a red hot go!
Babkak, Omar, Aladdin, Kassim, JASMINE!
A Whole New World!

The Other Side..π
So this week for art we made a really awesome piece of art. We drew one side a happy ocean scene and the other an ocean full of plastic and dead coral. It looked pretty awesome and I loved doing it a lot. My favorite part probably was the coloring in because that just brings the whole scene to life. When drawing the fish it reminded me of my own fish, so I also included them. My fish are 3 female Bettas called Crystal, Xena, and Lunar. I loved this task because I know so much about it and I really enjoy learning about the subject and how we can help our ocean environments. Here are a few pictures!
