SLJ day 6

 


Kia ora everyone!
Todays task was to explore and research about vector art and how to make it.
Vector art is an animated piece of art.
Which means this pictures details are not made in a realistic point of view.
Where as raster art is the opposite, 
raster art is a realistic image. It is a bunch of colored squares and seeing it from a far away distance can make it look like an image.
Anyway, the create challenge is to create a personalized christmas tree decoration.
My inspiration was waffles.
I love waffles and I can remember when me and my sisters would wake up early on christmas to eat delicious waffles.

What is your favorite thing to do around christmas?

Bye!

SLJ day 5



Hey everyone!
Sorry I haven't posted in a while I've been very busy.
Anyway this task is about helping teach others to learn how to count to 10 in te reo moari.
I decided to use some of the most kiwi things for my "demonstration" like L&P,Pinapple lumps and a rugby ball.

Did this help you with learning to count to ten in Te reo Maori? How was your christmas/new years? 

Bye!

Week 1 Term 4 Distance learning

 


This week our main focus for school was the pahurehure inlet and what we could do to make it better in the future. My idea was to send emails and put up posters to tell people that there will be weekly rubbish clean ups on Tuesdays to get rid of the rubbish and mangroves. What do you think would be a good idea to make the inlet better?

The Underdoggs

“Yay first day on the job” Bruno said. He was excited to be working as a Superhero for the Chicago state along with his whole family, His Dad (the chief of Heroes Chicago), his Mum(The whole town's favorite chef), his perfect older siblings(Patric and Lila) and lastly his younger sister Kio. Everyone except for Bruno have worked for the Heroes Chicago since they were 3, even Kio.Bruno couldn’t join because of his biggest fear. On his first day on the job he left the Chicago bank safe unguarded while the “NO HEROES” tribe were in town so ever since then he’s been suspended for 10 years. Until today, today is his thirteenth birthday which means it’s been ten years since his traumatizing experience at the bank. He promised that he would never EVER leave the safe unguarded. It’s 4 in the morning which is patrol time. So the family went to work.


As he’s walking through the streets of Chicago he hears a scream so he automatically flies to the famous Chicago apartments where there was a girl screaming on floor 6 stuck in a fire with her two children. Just as Bruno was flying up to collect them Brunos Dad had already scooped them up and brought them back down to safety. “I’ll get it next time I know it” Bruno mutters to himself. The crew's next stop was the Chicago local police where right there was standing his worst enemy, the “NO HEROES” tribe. Bruno promised himself he would not screw up again. Although he was terrified he flew straight towards them and snatched the poor citizens from the giant evil villains' hard muscled hands. “Good job Bruno” He told himself in his head. As he kept grabbing the citizens his face was tattooed with a smile on it. Lastly his BIGGEST enemy since he could speak, Backpack Burglar. The evilest, meanest villain in Chicago. “Lets go family!” Mum to everyone. As they charge towards him Bruno feels his body being tugged backwards. “Whats going on” Bruno screams intensely.


Bruno’s miserable that he failed the mission again. As he’s being pulled he thinks to himself, “What villain has that superpower?”. Then he realised none of them do. He tried to look backwards to see who was doing this but the pulling device was too powerful. Suddenly he blacks out. (1 hour later) Bruno wakes up after his long nap and slowly begins to open his eyes wider, eventually he wakes up to see that he’s trapped in an old rusty prison cell. He screams for help but all he hears is his own echo. Then suddenly he hears a voice, “Ah finally you’re awake” Said the deep and scary voice. Slowly a shadow starts to appear on the floor, a big and scary shadow. Then the creature slowly creeps out of the shadows. “Hi!” Said a sweet voice. “What? What happened to the big scary monster I just saw in the shadows?”Bruno exclaimed in a confused voice. “Ohhh. I see what you're talking about, the voice that was just to scare you” Said the small human with a giant red box on her back with a suckey thing that's like a vacuum. Bruno collapses to the floor and starts to sob. “Whats wrong” The stange human asks. Bruno shakes his head “I failed again, today was meant to be the day I finally get to fight with my family but now look what happened”. The girl with a vacuum on her back unlocked the cell and brought Bruno to a chair, “So what’s your name anyway?” The girl says, “I’m Clara but everyone calls me shorty the short one”. “Well I guess you’re kinda short” Said Bruno, giving her a weird look. Clara slaps Bruno ,”I may be short but I’m powerful”.



Clara had always been short and under-looked because of that,but she would always stay happy and kind because that’s what her Mum taught her who had passed away three years ago after her Dad left their family. One day she decided she was sick of everyone calling her short, so she turned evil. She named herself the underdogg and ever since she has been trying her hardest to keep evil so she can get the glory she “deserves”. Bruno could tell that ,that’s why she turned evil but didn’t think to ask. The two sat silent for 1 second then Clara asked why Bruno was so sad and Bruno said “I failed my mission as a hero of Chicago I don’t deserve to ever be one again”. “What!? You’re a hero, ew” Clara exclaim with a voice of disgust. “No not anymore I’m not, ever since the first day I screwed up I have been told I was always gonna fail so guess what, I’m taking their advise. From now on I’m not a hero I’m an underdogg” Bruno’s smile re-appeared. Straight away Clara knew that even if he was a hero she wasn’t gonna under-look him like everyone did to her. So Clara took him to the gear room, “Sorry they’re all homemade stuff but they work” Clara said. “Uhm I’m a hero I have powers” Bruno said with a giggle. “This will be fun” They both said, letting out an evil laugh.


Bruno knew everywhere the heroes hid every last thing so the first place they went was to go steal the diamond jewel that had been in the heroes base for 197 years. “Yay good job underdogg buddy, that was easy” Clara said with a smile. The next place Bruno wanted to go was to capture his family but Clara kept refusing. “No Bruno, if we capture your family we would be captured because the other heroes would come” Clara said, being held by Bruno as he flew 300 feet in the sky. “Ugh maybe we could go down and walk” Clara said as she looked down about to throw up. The next place they went was the police station which was where Bruno got captured. He was so happy being the villain so he could be the one who never makes mistakes.They took all the people and locked them up in the cells.”Easy” They both said. Their biggest and final stop was the Headquarters of all the old weapons of the dead Heroes. But just as they creep in they see the traps flying towards they’re face, “Duck!” Clara yelled. They tip-toed the rest of the traps along with some crawling and flying. “I knew we could do it” But one thing they didn’t know was that right behind them was a very angry…”Dad?” Bruno questions. Bruno snatches Clara from the floor and charges out the window.

Duffy Certificate Week 6

Well done to Peyton for publishing an amazing piece of persuasive writing. She is our Duffy certificate recipient this week! From Miss Kwok.

Week 6 Lock down work

 

Should NZ open our borders?

 I strongly believe that NZ should open our borders.We could simply have EVERYONE stay at home for one day and take the saliva test, then we could isolate the people with COVID and we could all carry on with our lives.


Firstly,

Some people isolate themselves alone which may not sound bad but there are actually problems with being alone for that long.Some extraverts that live alone have an extremely hard time being alone for about five months like last year.Some people can die from depression.Childrens learning can also decrease because they have less motivation to do there best because their at home and not in school which helps them to focus on school.


Secondly,

Workers aren’t getting paid very much which is hard because their in Lock down which is very expensive especially for single parents.Because the shops aren’t open it causes some trouble for lots of people to get money.And many people are losing their jobs due to COVID.Also many businesses are closing because they count on tourist to buy their products.


Thirdly,

We should stop other viruses like delta to limit the amount of doctors needed to deal with.We need to have enough space for the COVID cases so that we can stop COVID.


I strongly believe that we should open our borders but after all of NZ has taken the COVID test.It would help with business problems and money.We must open our borders to the countries with less COVID.
