picasso self portrait

 Picasso self portrait

We made Picasso self portrait for our work. You are most likely wondering what is so special about Picasso, well to use his proper name Pablo Picasso. Pablo Picasso was no ordinary artist, he would make them look weird by changing the shape of them. He would also use a range of colours for his painting. If you saw the paintings he created , you would would say wow. He is a famous artist. Here is mine.

Tsunami

 TSUNAMI WARNING!

Hello, last week there was a tsunami warning. Luckily I was in Auckland and in Auckland it was safe but my mum got the warning for some reason. I worried about it alot but my mum told me we were safe. No thanks to my bigger brothers that would scare me, by saying things like there was going to be a big tsunami. Even after about three days I was scared because no one told me it had passed.

When some one told me that the tsunami had passed I was relieved because for the past three days I was worrying. I still worried about a earthquake coming and collapsing my house luckily that hasn't happened, yet.   

In class we brainstormed what you might need in an emergency pack

Phone to call for help, charger/battery pack, water, food(non-perishable), first aid kit, entertainment/ cards, book, travel board games, torch, blankets, sunscreen, radio to listen for emergency broadcasts, toilet paper, insect repellent, umbrela.

Lockdown

 


Lockdown 4

 Hello blogger, Last week we had a full week lockdown due to covid-19. While we were in lock down it was scary because of the tsunami warning. Other then the tsunami warning lockdown was pretty fun. My favorite subject was maths because it was sort of challenging, I also liked it because I just like maths better then all subjects.

My favorite family activity was playing Junta ( the j sounds like a h), poker and wings of glory. They were my favorite because I got to spend time with my family.  I feel happy to be back at school because I get to talk to my friends. Also I am happy to be back at school because there is less things to distract me from my work. Blog you later.

Mindfulness

 


 Mindfulness

Hello bloggers, this week we had a mindfulness session. It was calming and fun, what we did first was we had to get into a circle and hold hands. Once we were in a circle our mindfulness teacher put a hula hoop one her arm. The goal was to get the hula hoop to the end of the circle, the only way to do that was to go through the hula hoop. After we did that we went back to our mat. Then did some stretches like down dog, cobra, table pose, child pose and butterfly pose. 

When that was finished we buddied up, the person I buddy up with Nicholas. We had to sit opposite each other. Then we put our feet together and we balanced. After that we put our backs together and said what we felt. then we went back to our mats. Then we had to lie down after lying down for a bit the session ended. Blog you later.

Making Art

Hello bloggers I made some art. It is based off an original painting. It was hard to make but I tried really hard to make it look like the original painting.The website I used is called art coloring book. The reason I did this/the whole senior syndicate was because we did a task from the summer learning journey.  Can you guess which one is the original painting? Blog you latter. #SLJ 2020

Bike skills

 


Bike Skills

Have you ever rode a bike before? I had never ridden a bike until Tuesday because that was the day I learnt to ride a bike. Yes yes I know you are wondering "You didn't know how to ride a bike!" It was really fun except for when I fell over the first time on the concrete. After that fall my teacher helped me to learn how to ride a bike on the grass, so if I fall over it won't hurt me.

After some time I learnt to push myself off. After practising pushing off I could stay on my bike for a while, but I fell off some times. One time I ran into a pole. When it was near the end I joined my group again and we did some practises. At the end both the groups joined each other and we played a game. That was the end of that sesion and that was also the last one. It was fun, blog you later.

The production

 


                               The production


Hello blogger, I'm back again and last week we did the production, you probably don't know what it is. Well then I will tell you, the production is a show we put on every two years, every student has a part to play. Whether it is the dance or a character in the show, I was a character in the play. If you are wondering what I was I was a camel, an annoying camel to be exact. The show was called Jasmine and Aladdin instead of  Aladdin which is a movie.

 There  are many characters like Aladdin, Jasmen, Camels x2 ( but I had to do it myself because the other camel didn't show up to any of the shows),  Apple peddler, Silk peddler, Rug peddler, Inscens peddler/ perfume seller and many more. We did four of the same show. I always was nervous at the beginning and at the middle, but at the end I always felt relieved at the end. It was at Waikowhai Intermediate School so we had to walk there on Friday because it was during the day. The shows were on Wednesday X2, Thursday and Friday. See you later.
